Morning Bus and Chef Mickey

[BowerFamilyBand]

Our family we be down in just 10 days staying at Boardwalk. We have a Chef Mickey breakfast at 7:30 on Tuesday. I did a bit of research and saw that the buses seem to start at 6:30. I was wondering if weekdays have a different start time or is the start time in direct relation to the park opening. Any info would be great. Thanks

Just stop by bell services or the front desk and ask them the day you plan to depart. If there isn't a bus planned, they will phone one in for you. Busses are fairly regular at WDW though. I doubt you'll have any issues.

I do see few Disney buses on the roads, specifically MK, when I drive to work around 6am. Still, stop by the front desk to double check.

We were at the bus stop at 6:45am last Sunday for an ADR at CRT in MK. I think the busses start running at 6:30 no matter what. After the bus dropped us at MK, they made subsequent stops at the Contemp (for CM) Poly (for Ohana) and GF (for 1900 PF)

We were there last week and stayed at the POP. The front desk said the buses don't start running until 6:45 and with our 7:15 CM reservation, I didn't want to chance it. We took at cab. It was $22 from POP to CR.

Thank you for all the information. Now for the follow up question. If you have your own vehicle can you just drive over there and park?

Yes. They will ask for your name at the guard station and just tell them your name and that you have reservations at CM. You can park in the lot at the CR for 3 hours.

I am pretty sure they start at 6:30am everyday. I had a 7:30am ADR for Kona on a weekday when I was there in September. I went right to the bus stop and there was already a MK bus there waiting. I was the only one who was going anywhere that early. I told her where I was heading and she drove me straight to the Poly! That was really nice of her. Not all do that but some do if you are the only ones.

Yep! If you're going to Magic Kingdom that day, you could also park at the TTC and take the monorail to the Contemporary. That way you don't have to worry about moving the car after breakfast.
The resort monorail starts at, I believe, 7am so it would still be a bit tight, but definitely a grand entrance. And you'd have an awesome parking spot at the TTC.

Thanks for the parking information. I always have the notion to park the car and never go to it until you leave. We will check at the desk and see what their option is. Now we are counting down the slowest days ever.

I see few monorails running and making stop at CR when I get to there at 6:00am for work.
