When do busses start from AKL?

[crusoemom]

We want to catch the first bus from AKL to MK, since we have to convert AP vouchers to actual passes, and might possibly have to go to the TTC to do that. This is for next week (end-July), when the MK opens officially at 9:00.

Does anyone know at what time we'll need to be at the bus stop to catch the earliest bus? Or if not, will the people at AKL know for sure?

TIA!

I may be wrong but can't you convert the voucher at the MK, I did that last fall. You just go to Guest Service window. Won't that save you some time?

This past May we converted our AP vouchers at the Guest Services window just outside the MK. We had parked at the TTC (ticket windows were still closed at 7:30am), had breakfast at the Poly then monorailed over to the MK where we converted our vouchers. There was no line and it took less than 5 minutes. I am not sure what time the buses start running at the AKL but I would imagine 1 hour before park opening.

Thanks for the info - I am planning to convert at MK Guest Services but would like to get there when there's only a 5-minute line

I also have to factor in the fairly long drive from AKL to MK. I'll check with the CMs at AKL and hopefully they'll know when the first bus starts running.

They run a very early bus to the MK so that people with early PS will make it. You don't have to call to schedule it and you don't need a PS to get on. The AKL guest services CM told me that the first bus came at 8:00. We were at the bus stop at 7:45 and the bus came. I was told that this was not the first bus either. You will have no problems getting to MK on time.
