An hour before the park opens, which this time of year is around 8:00 AM and it runs till about an hour after the last park closes, which is around 10:30 PM (once again this time of year, lol)
Is is just an hour before???
We are staying at the Poly and have PS's at Crystal Palace at 8:10 and the MK isn't scheduled to open til 9.
I figure just to get through the security checks they have now, then into the park, and the walk to CP, it will take about 10 minutes.
How will we possibly make it on time if we will just be getting on the monorail at 8am???
Please tell me the monorail runs earlier!!
I believe at least the resort monorail starts running at 7:00 am. We stayed at the Contemporary in March, and took the monorail on Sunday morning at 7:30 to the Poly for Mass, and also around 7:30 for our 8:10 seating at Crystal Palace. The resort monorail does stop at the TTC. I don't know what time the MK express monorail starts - this may be the one that starts an hour before the park opens.
Either way, you definitely can take the monorail to your early PS with no worries.
cindyfan: We have the same issue as you : 8:05 PS at CP and staying at the Poly. My DU agent said they now have a character breakfast bus which stops at the hotels beginning at 7:15 or 7:30. You will need your PS confirmation number to get into the park. I plan on double checking with Guest Services at the Poly when I arrive.
