When do the buses start running when the park (MK) doesn't open until 9am?

[Eeyore's Queen]

I have a PS at 1900 Park Fair at 8:30 am when the MK opens at 9. We are not renting a car this time and not sure when the buses start running to MK from Boardwalk Inn. I didn't even think about this until another CM asked me if we had a car when I was making a PS at Crystal Palace. I'm assuming that the buses would start at around 8 am if the park opened at 9. I'm hoping they start earlier than that because I don't think I can get to the GF in a half hour's time from the Boardwalk. Anyone know? Thanks.

Pay no attention to the Dining people when it comes to transportation.

Buses to the Magic Kingdom and resort area will start running between 6:30-6:45am. For an 8:30 breakfast, be at the bus stop no later than 7:45am. Let the driver know that you need to go to the GF for breakfast. If the driver is able to, they can take you directly. If they are unable to, they will direct you to the Resort Monorail which will take you the rest of the way.

Thanks Tyler. I was hoping you were out there. Thanks for the tip on taking us to the GF too.

Gosh I wish I would have known this. We are not driving or renting a car, but we had planned to when we made our PS. I made PS for Chef Mickeys for 8:10 am on our first morning there and when I called to check the CM told me there would be no transpertation to and from Magic Kingdom till 7:30 - 8:00am that day because it was not and EE day. She said I would never make it to MK then to Chef Mickeys in time. The only othere time was a 10:50am so I took that. I didn't want anyone to not get to go.

Tyler Ive read threads where I says that if you want to use these early buses then you need to check with the front desk at your resort...is this true?

There are special buses for people with early morning PS at Crystal Palace and CRT.

I would assume you could use the special bus to take you to MK even if you had a PS at 1900 Park Fair.

You could also book a taxi. We did this 2 times. The taxi took us from the BC to the CR. We then walked to MK for our breakfasts.

Nope! Just be out at the bus stop 45 mins prior to your priority seating, and the bus will come.

Howdy, neighbor. I am also from West Chester. This exact thing happened to me one time when we were staying at Dixie Landing. I went to the front desk to ask what was the best way to get to Olivia's Cafe (in Old Key West) early in the morning. The next thing I know, a car pulls up out front and takes us right over!!! Now, that's magic.

It was mentioned that he would be taken to the resort monorail so that leaves the question of what time does the monorail run??

Thanks for all of the help everyone. Cantw8, I didn't think anyone else would be from West Chester. Good to have a neighbor on here. I can't believe they got you a car. That is Disney Magic.
