Hi there, Amy, and welcome to planDisney! It's awesome that you're here with this great question about your upcoming Walt Disney World Resort holiday! Thank you so much for trusting us to give you advice about your visit. My Panelist pals and I are here and always happy to help our fellow Guests, just like you!
Amy, you'll be happy to know that Guests are actually able to enter
Magic Kingdom Park about an hour earlier than the posted opening time. During this time, Guests are welcome to shop at the various merchandise locations and even grab coffee and snacks on Main Street, U.S.A.
You'll want to board your bus as early as possible to head to Magic Kingdom Park. I always like to ask the Cast Members at the Front Desk of my Disney Resorts Collection hotel when I can expect the first bus to arrive, so that I can set my alarm accordingly.
Once you enter Magic Kingdom Park and make your way toward Cinderella Castle, you'll see Cast Members holding up signs to indicate the path for Guests with
Advance Dining Reservations (that's you!).
The Crystal Palace will be on your left. If you need any help at all, don't hesitate to ask a helpful Cast Member!
I couldn't be more excited that you're going to experience breakfast at The Crystal Palace. Be sure to get as many Mickey Churro Waffles as you possibly can - they're amazing and difficult to find anywhere else! Eat an extra one for me!
Amy, I hope this is helpful to you as you continue to count down to your arrival at the Most Magical Place on Earth! Please stop by planDisney with any other questions you have!
TTFN! Ta ta for now!
Jennifer
