Transport Question

[mom2kaj]

We are beginning our trip with the O'hana breakfast (this is a first so I hope it's worth it). Our reservation is for 8:30am on a Saturday which is before the parks open. We are staying offsite so I was originally thinking of driving to the Polynesian resort. From there can we take the monorail to MK or would I have to park at MK first? I was hoping to start at HS as I thought MK might be really crowded on Saturday, but am rethinking my plan. What would you do? Drive to Ohana and then HS or just take monorail to MK (if possible)? We have parkhoppers so I could split the day up. Sunday we planned a full day at MK already.

1- We are staying offsite so I was originally thinking of driving to the Polynesian resort.

2- From there can we take the monorail to MK or

3- would I have to park at MK first?

4- Drive to Ohana and then HS or just take monorail to MK (if possible)?

1- Sorta
2- There's another plan.
3- Guests can not park AT MK.
The parking lot for MK is actually the TTC (Transportation and Ticket Center.)
Then, guests board a monorail or ferry and ride to the MK gates.
The Poly is right next to the TTC and guests can park in the MK lot and then walk to the Poly
or take the Resort Monorail from TTC to the Poly (which let's guests depart just steps from 'Ohana.)

From the Poly, guests can ride the Resort Monorail to MK, if they like.


4- If you want to head to ANOTHER park (not MK) after your Poly breakfast, then just park
AT the Poly for breakfast, then DRIVE to the other park.

Thanks! This is our 2nd visit so I am still fairly new to the logistics of everything.

Can you guys tell me if we can drive from POP directly to O'hana? We are going in October and we will rent a car. I assume by the pictures that Poly has a parking lot and maybe used by O'hana's guests (I am not sure, just asking). Thanks!

PS: we are trying to book for dinner.

Yes, no problem. Tell the guard at the gate what you're doing and you'll be fine. You will also need to show your vehicle pass to get through the MK toll plaza. Choose a lane on the far right--you'll need to exit right almost immediately after the plaza.

Yes - you can drive from Pop to the Poly for Ohana. Just be aware that your car will have to come with you when you leave - it cannot be left at the Poly while you head off to explore a park. (Not that I read your post as proposing that, just as an FYI for you & others reading )

Eta: oops! Mesa was faster

Thank you all!
