    We have a breakfast reservation with the princesses at Epcot at 8:50. Could we ride Remy before our reservation?

    Royal greetings, Allison! It sounds like you are preparing for a regal gathering of the Disney princesses at EPCOT! I’m guessing you have breakfast reservations for Akershus Royal Banquet Hall. A delicious choice!

    I love your plan, Allison, but it might be just a bit ambitious. Let’s plan through this one together. I see that you are visiting during the last week of August. I’ll work off the assumption that you are staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel. That means you’ll have the Early Theme Park Entry benefit for all Walt Disney World Resort hotel guests. With the benefit, you should be able to enter the park at 8:30 AM. If you head directly to Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and can get on right away, you will have just enough time to make it to your breakfast reservation. That is a popular attraction and lines can form as soon as the park opens. Your plan will work slightly better if you are staying at one of the resorts that will allow you to enter the park at the International Gateway. You would be able to walk directly to the attraction as it is very close to that entrance.

    Allison, while I love your Disney-planning ambition, I think this plan might make for a stressful morning rather than a relaxing start to your day. I recommend enjoying your breakfast with the Disney Princesses and then making your way to Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure at some point in the day.

    If you prefer shorter waits for attractions (and who doesn’t?) you might consider Lightning Lane Multi Pass. Purchasing this service allows you to select attractions in advance that you want to experience. You’ll then have a shorter wait period for the attraction.

    Dreams do come true!
