Time TS lot will be open this Friday with opening at 8AM & do you go through security there now?

Hi DISers! Just wondering how early TS lot will be open this Friday & I thought I read now you can go through security there before getting onto the buses? If so, where do they drop you off to avoid security points on Harbor?

Bumping up to see if anyone has anything recent to report??? TIA!

Fresh Baked just posted a video on this. Buses drop you off where they normally do - there is a gate that will be up that will funnel you pass harbor security into the esplanade.
The video said the parking lot security would only be used on busy days. So if you plan on going you need to be prepared to go through security at either location.

Maybe someone can speak from experience.

Can't help with what time it will open.

The website says 90 minutes before earliest opening. Haven’t heard to much of the security yet.

The TS bag check has only been used a few times during the holidays. CMs have said that, for now, it will only be used on very busy days. So plan to go through bag check at the Harbor entrance. Check on the ROTR Superthread to see when TS has been opening each day.

Here now. Sunday and Monday mornings we did security at Toy Story. Today (Tues), we did it after getting off the bus. I think they do security at the parking lot if they think it'll be crowded.

How long did it take you to get through bag check at TS?

A minute? If that. More quickly than the Harbor one, I'll say that. We never had a line. I will note we arrived at bus close to park opening on Sunday and after park opening Monday. Tuesday we were at the bus an hour before park opening and the line to get on the bus was significantly longer. If security was opened I would think it would have taken a few minutes to get through.

Thank you for the reply! Do you know how early the TS lot opens before the park? Our hotel is right by the lot & we want t take the buses to try to get into DL before official opening at 8AM to get Boarding passes for ROTR!

I think as early as 630. Our hotel room overlooked the lot and I could see cars pulling in that early.
