Staying offsite- How to get to MK for an ADR prior to park opening

[Mimi Q]

My cousin is staying off site next month, and I am trying to help her plan her trip. What is the best way to get to the Magic Kingdom for an ADR at Crystal Palace? Their ADR is at 8am- 1 hour prior to park opening. They will be driving from Daytona Beach that morning. I always stay onsite and use Disney transportation, so I have no idea. Thanks!

Several options.
1. Park at the TTC and take the monorail or boat over.
2. Pay to valet park at the Contemporary and then walk over to MK. This would be my choice. It's a bit more expensive but quicker.

Notice I said valet park vs self-park. If you valet park, you are then free to go and do anything you want...even go to a park. Self-parking is for those staying at the resort, or for those using the resort facilities. One of those facilities is not park access.

Thank you. I certainly didn't know valet parking was an option.

From the Magic Kingdom parking lot concourse (Transportation & Ticket Center) the Express Monorail and ferry boat might not be running that early.

If that is true when you get there then use the Resort Monorail to MK.
