Hi Chuck!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
Having an early breakfast reservation with the Disney Princesses at
Akershus Royal Banquet Hall is definitely a magical way to start your day at
Epcot. You can absolutely be admitted to the park earlier than regular guests - I would aim to arrive at the security bag check by 8.15am, and then make your way to the entrance signposted 'Guests with early dining reservations'. The Disney Cast Members on the gate will allow you into the park with plenty of time to walk to your breakfast reservation in the Norway Pavilion in World Showcase (this will take several minutes). Here is a park
Guidemap of Epcot so you can plan your walking route. There is something very special about walking through a park before it officially opens for the day - do remember to take some photos on your way to the restaurant - it's most likely you'll get some quieter pics, without anyone inadvertently wandering into the background of your family photo in front of
Spaceship Earth!
Enjoy your breakfast, when you will meet several of these Disney Princesses: Snow White, Cinderella, Belle,
Princess Aurora and Ariel while you savour items from a
Norwegian Smorgasbord, along with some of our traditional breakfast items.
Please come back and visit us if you have any further questions. We will be happy to help you plan your magical vacation to Walt Disney World Resort.
