Reservation questions

[ToddG]

Yesterday was my 180 day mark so I took the day off to make my reservations (was just going to come in late but my boss was like "ah take the day" he's cool).

Anyway these are my ADRs

Monday - 9/19 Biergarten 6:20
What time will we need to leave Animal Kingdom to make it to Epcot for this?

Tuesday 9/20 Crystal Palace 8:30, Tony's Town Square 5:30
Wednesday 9/21 Le Cellier
Friday 9/23 Ohana Breakfast 9:30, Planet Hollywood 6:30
Is cab the best way to get from POR to Polynesian?

Last question, I wanted to book the Fantasmic package for Thursday, 9/22 but it wasn't showing as available for any date in September. Anyone else have this problem?

Went to the Transportation Wizard at our laughing place web page and it looks like a 41-45 min trip using WDW transportation:

Bus to Magic Kingdom® Park
Transfer to Monorail to Disney's Polynesian Resort
Estimated Time: 41 minutes

Bus to Magic Kingdom® Park
Transfer to Boat to Disney's Polynesian Resort
Estimated Time: 45 minutes

Bus to Disney Hollywood Studios
Transfer to Bus to Disney's Polynesian Resort
Estimated Time: 45 minutes

They said a car would be 14 minutes, so a cab would be a third of the time.

I would leave AK around 5. Take the bus to AKL and then bus to epcot. While it may only take 45 mins to get there via the bus, you still need around 15 mins of walking once inside Epcot.

To get to the Poly from POR, take the bus to MK and then the monorail over to Poly. If you find yourself with a little bit of extra time, take the boat over. It's a nice ride

BTW, I cannot believe your boss gave you the whole day off to make ADR's!?!?!?!

This has been pretty common this month. Try typing 09/22/2011 in the box (you need that leading zero!), that's what has been said by several others for the month of September.

Animal Kingdom probably closes at 5pm that day, so you should be fine. Just take the bus to Yacht/Beach Club and walk to Epcot's International Gateway (you do have park-hoppers, correct?).


POR to Poly...as stated, just take bus to MK and monorail to Poly.

And for the Fantasmic! package, type the date in manually. It worked for me to book it on 9/1 (actually, I'm sure the glitch helped me land a 4:55pm at Mama Melrose's).

Thanks to all for the responses, I tried typing in the date for Fantasmic and it worked, 5:00 pm at Hollywood & Vine.

 

[stl_figment]

I will be at Hollywood & Vine at the same time.

#1 Biergarten: Luckily, AK has an actual bus that will take you to Epcot. AND, they have a bus to TTC (monorail access). . .however, I would allow at least an hour and a half (probably 2 hrs) to access transportation, journey through the park and get to the restaurant. It may seem excessive but not to worry, you will probably be done with AK in plenty of time. . .Its my favorite park and to explore it all, ride the rides and see the shows I am usually done by 2, the latest 3.

#2 POR to Ohana: My personal preference is a cab. . .EASY PEASY. . .I am all about easy. However. With a ressie at 9:30, you can take an early bus to MK and then take the resort monorail to the Poly. You will need to plan for at least an hour of transportation time.

#3 I believe you have to book the dinner packages with an actual live person. . .just call the dining ressie line.
