Uber Drop Off Early At Parks

[Mousetopia]

Ive read that parks have let people in well advance of the 30 min. early entry. As much as 45 min from one post. If I want to arrive an hour ahead of early entry how do I get there?
..I see conflicting answers on resort bus pick up.
...I am thinking taking Uber but wonder if that is possible. Can they get into the park parking lot this early?

The problem with Uber is that if the lots aren't open yet they can't get in. Disney transportation is the best option.

Yes thats one of my questions, how lot access early a.m. works. Is it consistent? How early?
I have found busses unreliable

Things change so rapidly these days that consistency is hard to find.

I’m sure I’ve driven to the parks about 45 minutes prior to early entry (actually extra early magic hours back in the day) and the lots were open and there was already a pretty good crowd. I’m just kind of guessing but I would think the lots would be open and you can drive or Uber within an hour of early entry.

And for OP, if they open the gates prior to early entry you won’t be able to ride anything until actual rope drop which is the early entry time - maybe 15 minutes or so earlier at best. Getting there an hour before opening just gets you towards the front of that rope drop crowd. I always found 30-40 minutes early was the sweet spot. You aren’t front of the crowd but it’s good enough to hit a major attraction with very little wait.

This is untrue for DHS and TTC (MK), where Uber and Lyft do not enter through the toll plaza. At DHS they use the bus entrance, and at the TTC they drop off where the taxis do.
