WL to Early Breakfast @ MK?

[mom2daisy]

We have an ADR at 8:10 at MK. Does anyone know when the WL boat/busses start running? Which would be quicker? Any idea what time we should be at the boat/bus?

Thanks

The boat directly to MK will not be early enough unless there is a EMH. WE did not realize this and panicked, however boat will take you to Contemporary that early and then Monorail to MK. Allow enough time. Not sure how early the buses run.

Some of it will depend on whether or not it is an early entry day. If it is, the buses start running earlier. When we had to be there early once for a tour, we took the boat from the WL to the Contemporary, since that one starts running early, and then we walked over to the front gate. The walk wasn't too bad. The concierge should be able to give you some advice though just to be sure.

Don't bet on it! I was told by the concierge desk that the first boat departed at 6:45 am for the Magic Kingdom. Nope ... the boats for MK didn't start departing until 1/2 hour or so before park opening, but the CR boats started running around 6:45am. We were approaching the dock when the CR boat was loading, but we didn't hurry b/c we wanted the MK boat. So, we watched the CR boat set off towards the resort. We kept waiting for the MK boat to no avail, so DH hoofed it back to the lobby to see what the deal was and was told that we had to take boat to CR, then monorail to MK. We made it to the park at 8:05am - we left our room at 6:35am.

So, I think you will definately want to plan on the boat to CR, then monorail to MK.

I would take the bus. We had an 8:10 ADR at the Crystal Palace and were able to catch a bus to the MK as early as 7:15.

We were at WL early December and we too had reservations for CP at 8:10 AM. We took the 7:25 - 7:30 bus and arrived closest bus stop at MK in less than 5 minutes. We had lots of time to get in the correct line for early ADRs and stroll down Main Street with very few people. Awesome pictures. We found the bus to be the quickest way to MK and often took the boat on our return trip to WL.
