Trying to rope drop early entry from Dockside to IOA. What time do the buses start running? When should we be at the bus stop?

TIA!
 
I am staying at Dockside right now as it happens, having stayed at Surfside on a prior trip. My recollection is that the buses get going one hour before Early Park Admission. So if IOA starts early admission at 7:00am, that should mean the first bus will show up at Dockside at 6:00am. As I have never actually done this however, perhaps an EPA enthusiast would like to chime in with firsthand experience.
 
I think the earliest have been out there was 7:15 for an 8:00am EE. That’s why I didn’t answer previously. I’m sure it’s at least an hour before EE, but I always stop at Starbucks on the way out. Maybe someone else knows, or you could just call the hotel. I will be at Aventura later and I will ask. I’m sure all the buses get going at the same time.
