What time to get to Bus stop before early morning ADR?

[MellyBeans]

For our up coming trip, we have two early morning ADRs scheduled at Crystal Palace and Tusker House before the parks open (8:05 and 8:15 respectively). What time should I plan on dragging DH to the bus stop those mornings to ensure we get to the parks on time for our reservations? When do the buses typically start running? Would an hour give us enough time, or should I budget even longer? We are staying at Pop if that helps.

Also, how much time should I allow to get to two different dinners, Ohana and Whispering Canyon Cafe (7:10 and 6:15 respectively). I know I'll need to take the bus to MK and then the boat to the WL and the monorail to the Poly. Is an hour enough time, or should I budget more like an hour and a half to two hours? If it's too much of a hassle we may just take a cab, but I'd like to avoid that if possible, especially since both resorts have easy access from the MK.

Thanks! I hope I'm posting this in the right area. Wasn't sure if it should go in the resort, transportation, or restaurant area!

We normally eat around 7.00 pm and are inclined to give ourselves an hour and a half or slightly more. We hate rushing and watching our time. We love to have time to enjoy our surroundings and check out the hotels etc.

For the breakfasts, be at the bus stop by 7. You'll get there plenty early, but it's so much better than going out at 7:15 and not seeing a bus for 20 minutes. For MK area TSs I like to give myself 75 minutes from POP, my usual home. Only had an hour for GFC last September, and made it easily on time.

For MK area TSs I like to give myself 75 minutes...

In general, for TS meals in parks, we like to give ourselves about 70-75 minutes. For resort TS meals we like to give ourselves about 90 minutes if we are leaving from our resort and about an hour if leaving from a park. Sometimes we get there real early, other times we cut it pretty close, but we have yet to be late for an ADR (knock on wood).

we are always AT the bus stop BY 7:00am, not walking out our room door, but AT the bus stop, waiting at 7:00.

Sometimes we even get to the bus stop around 6:45am. We have never, ever been late to an early morning ADR by doing this and we go to a lot of them.

I think it depends where you are staying (I didn't see it in your post ...)
If you aren't close (like monorail resort) and need to only rely on buses, I would allow for an hour.
