This will be my first time going any advice or tips on how to get these?

How early are you trying to get in? My friends and I have driven in without issues. I shoot to be at the parking tollbooth shortly after 9:15 to avoid being too early and getting turned around.

Walkers would be able to avoid the long car lines that build before park open, but I don't think it would be worth it to get a resort night just to get in the park an extra 15 minutes early.

Thanks, post 15296 reported being there at 9. But I think I figured out a plan. We could Uber to a resort within walking distance, so not have to worry about when they opened up the parking lot.

Just an fyi, they won't let the uber into a resort without a dining reservation. You can uber to the gas station across from boardwalk and walk from there

Read post 1 and then recent reports

Are the boats from beach club running?

You can uber or drive your own car, i would not count on Disney transportation, or if being on the park by 9:20 is important to you to ride attractions then you could walk from the epcot resorts

I would like to Uber in and not rely on the skyliner to get me there around 9:15-9:20. Does anyone know when they would STOP turning Ubers around in the morning?

I like the alternative of walking from the Epcot resorts. Looks like Boardwalk is best? I see a path on the map. Does anyone have any idea how long that walk would take?

I guess walking might be the best to be in line even around 9am. I imagine they won't be turning away foot traffic.

Cars are turned around before 9am. After 9am they allow the cars to line up and then they open the toll booths and parking.
The walk from boardwalk is about 10 minutes at a steady pace, cut through the clown pool

Thanks, good to know, How long of a walk is it from the gas station? Also, do you know the name of the gas station or address to put in the Uber request?

Speedway
300 E Buena Vista Dr, Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830
The walk is about 10 to 15 depending on pace

You are such a great help, thank you so much! Also, I thought about the Swan too. Is that closer or farther? I will be stressing the entire trip until we get our BGs! We always stayed in the past on the MK hotels, so I don’t know my way around this part at all. Staying at Riviera.

 

[Eldritch]

I was wondering the same. It looks like the Boardwalk is closer though if we were to get dropped off at the front the gas station might be closer and an easier in and out. Is it pretty apparent how to walk from the gas station to HS?

Thank you very much for your time.

There’s a sidewalk that goes from Speedway to the lake, then down to Hollywood Studios. Use walking directions on your phone or computer and drop pins to where you want to walk from and to. @crazy_for_the_dis @Eldritch

this is the most straight forward way, you don't walk through the boardwalk at all

You can walk to te CBR Skyliner station, you will need to be there by 8:30am to be able to get on and over to DHS, if you wait for the skyliner to start at Riviera it will be 9am.
Uber and walking from that gas station is an option or going by bus to DHS from Riviera is an option
All of them should put you inside the park before 10am, now if you want to get some early ride done then obviously uber or driving on your own would be more controllable

Skyliner starts running at 8:30 at CBR or earlier? Just curious, planning a stay in November and figuring out the skyliner schedule to get over to DHS in time.

Will still have a car as a backup plan in case things get backed up.

Skyliner starts at 9am from all stations. People are lining up an hour before at pop and at cbr, there have been multiple reports of long lines at cbr but also being able to make it in time

Will add on, if you go on a busy day (like it was during labor day), they may allow you to line up earlier than 9 at the parking booth.

On Friday, we got there at around 855, and we were about 20 cars back at the parking booth. So they had obviously allowed them to line up much earlier.

But, I would plan on it being at 9 at the earliest.

 

[GBRforWDW]

Think the last I saw, there were 123 boarding groups called today. Glad it seemed to run really well during the busy weekend.

I haven't been on this thread in a while, but my trip is in a couple weeks. Are folks getting 2pm BGs?
