Question on Timing for getting braclet at park to rushing to restaurant PS?

[samefay]

Please help. Trying to figure timing into this picture.
May 24th Animal Kingdom will be open 3 hours later for extra magic hours. The evening EMH is a new concept for me. I believe this will make the park stay open until 10pm. I hear you can't get your braclet until 2 hours prior to the park closing. That would be 5 pm. I want to make dinner reservations at Boma's for 6:15 pm. Would that give us enough time to get our braclets and get to Boma's at the Lodge? And then do we just take the bus back to Animal Kingdom?

Thanks in advance for your help.

You don't have to get your bracelet early. You can just get them when you come back to the park.

Hi
Guessing at how fast you can eat, I'm thinking you won't be back at MK till 8pm or so. Will that be enough time for you?

If you want to get the bracelet ahead of time, I think you can make it back to Boma by 6:15pm. You could always get a cab if you're running late. I think the trip from MK to AK lodge would be around 20 min.

Me.....I would stress too much....


Have a great time

Thanks for your help.

So you don't have to get the braclets before the park closes, you can just come back and say I'm a guest resort and get in?

If so, this will be a big help.

I believe the above poster is right about getting bracelets once you return to the park (it makes a lot of sense). Also (at least at MGM) we were able to get our bracelets at around 4:30ish when the park closed at 7 so they may set up the stations a little earlier than exactly 2 hours before closing.

Yes. You will need to show your room keys, so make sure you have them - all of you, not just one.
