Taking ME from Pop to airport?

[KitKate]

1) Our flight leaves from the Orlando Airport back to home at 12:50 pm. Can anyone tell me what time we would have to catch the Magic Express to get to the airport in time?

2) I am also wondering if we have time to go to Kona Cafe for breakfast on our last morning from the Pop, and get back in time for the ME?

Well they generally schedule those for about three hours before your flight time. So for a 12:50 flight you will be leaving Pop somewhere around 9:50. As long as you don't mind eating a very early breakfast over at the Poly you should be fine. You just need to allow the time to get to the MK, then the Poly, then back to the MK and back to Pop. So you'll want to allow an hour each way for that just to be safe. Which means you need to be done at Kona by 8:50 in order to get back on Disney transporation.

It would be easier to take a taxi to Kona. Depending on buses to get you back to your resort that early in the morning could be bad. They main concern is getting people to the parks and not back to their resort, so you may wind up having a longer wait for a bus.

I don't think you can do breakfast at another resort conveniently. Your ME bus will close its door on Pop' around 9:50 (time printed on your confirmation); so you need to be ready 10 minutes before, actually add another half hour because the bellhops at the value resorts say they need more time to fetch your carry-ons. And allow a safety margin for glitches.

If you do do breakfast at Kona (Polynesian?) definitely be prepared to grab a cab back.
