Skyliner to Epcot IG at opening

[spot28]

What happens when you take Skyliner to Epcot to Intl Gateway at park open when the future world opens earlier than world showcase? Do they allow you in at the future world time or do you have to wait for 11am world showcase?

You are permitted to enter into Future World. When you come in, they have the bridge to France blocked off so everyone has to head to the left.

I've heard that Frozen Ever After opens at the same time as Future World despite the rest of the World Showcase being closed--can anyone confirm? I seem to remember that you'll have to go around the left to get there regardless.

But in general yeah, having done RD at Epcot from the IG when we stayed at the Dolphin, there was no delay in getting in--you just couldn't turn right to go deeper into the WS and none of the shops we passed in the pavilions on the way to FW were open at that hour.

Actually, you should be able to enter France for breakfast as Les Halles should open with the park (not sure about if it's an EMH though), but you can go no further in the WS in that direction. The other direction (UK & Canada) will remain open for walking through but none of the shops or venues will be open.

FEA does open with the rest of the park, but it can only be accessed from the Mexico side until 11 AM, so you'd have to walk around from the UK side. From the IG that's actually slightly closer though it doesn't seem like it.

Yes, that's correct. I tend to forget about Les Halles being open because I've never eaten there for breakfast.

Well, it's a waste of good rope drop time in my opinion, but it is an option.
