Resort buses for park opening

[Megsmachine]

What time do resort buses to the parks start? AK opens at 8:30a for early entry, so how early will buses be available in the am? Also if we choose to drive how early can we get in to the parking?

If wanting to be near the front of the pack for Early Theme Park Entry, it's recommended to be at the bus stop approximately 90 minutes before ETPE, or 7:00 AM for an 8:30 opening. The buses start running roughly 60 minutes before. The parking lots open roughly an hour before ETPE opening.

If you have more questions, read Post 1 of the ETPE thread. It's updated regularly! And the last few pages of that thread contain reports of recent experiences. But start with Post 1!
