turn around times for ferrys

[kelmac284]

We are going to DW on xmas week. I know it is going to be SUPER crowded. Here is my question. We plan to just go to the resorts on xmas day. We plan to get to the TTC as early as possible. We have a ressie at Kona for 12:45 for lunch. I know that GF is first on the resort loop. If we go there first and look around does it then go to MK and if so if we get off there and get on the WL ferry to go see it does anyone know the turn around time to do a round trip? Like how long does it take each way? We would like to see it but not sure if we should do contemporary and Poly first and then go back around to get on the ferry either there or at Bay lake?

Thanks I should have been more clear. I knew that poly was first but we wanted to do that last so I meant we are going to get off at GF first then since MK is next I was thinking we should do the WL loop and then come back and do contemp before Poly but unless we only take a short time at GF we maybe should leave the WL for last or maybe not at all depending on how bad it is. We are going to park early like 7 or 8 at the latest and then wanted to do the loop. We were going to leave our car at TTC and take a bus to HS and then either walk or boat to Y&BC to see those 2. But again it is all going to depend on timing. And yes I knew Kona was at Poly. I was hoping to do that one last so we could have our lunch and then leave but I guess we just need to play it by ear.

Thanks!!!

I think your saying you are doing the 2 epcot resorts first, then having lunch at poly and then doing the monorail+wl loop?

Since you have an ADR, I would probably park at poly, possibly even spending the $15 more for valet. There is no hollywood bus from TTC so poly is your closest place to get that bus which you can walk too from TTC. After lunch, I would just go in order. do GF, then contemporary using the monorail then get the boat from contemporary to WL. From WL you have bus and boat options to get other places when your done.

You didn't mention if you have plans for after this circle, if your going to mk. Even parked at poly, it's not a bad walk from ttc if you large ferry it, but there is also resort boats (slowest) and monorail depending on line to get the monorail over to it so you have crowd options when you are done.

I would plan on any boat taking 30 minutes at minimum with minimal wait.. minimal wait is rare so 40-50 minutes is a better time to plan by and that's if your on the first boat that comes.. if you need to wait an extra boat, keep adding 20 minutes to the time.
