    How long does dining at Crystal palace generally take? 2 adults, 1 teen -her 1 day golden birthday trip! And, any perks to either the 8:10 AM reservation for breakfast and enter the park an hour early, or book the 8:45 PM reservation and stay late? Thanks!

    Hi there, Jessica, and welcome to planDisney! It sounds like you're getting ready for an unforgettable birthday celebration for a very special teenager, and you all must be so excited! Thank you so much for stopping by with this great question!

    Jessica, you'll be happy to know that you can't go wrong with a dining reservation at The Crystal Palace. A meal here usually takes between 60 and 90 minutes, so keep that in mind as you consider your options. If you have one day at Magic Kingdom Park, I recommend arriving early and taking advantage of the typically lighter morning crowds. If that sounds like something you'd enjoy, consider the dinnertime dining reservation. Another important thing to keep in mind is the time of the fireworks - if you're seated inside when they start, you might have an obstructed view of the fireworks. Be sure to check out the menu so that you can compare the options. No matter what time of day you visit, you'll enjoy some quality time with your favorite Characters from the Hundred Acre Wood!

    Let's chat a bit about your day at Magic Kingdom! You can hang out on Main Street for about an hour before the official park opening time, allowing you to head toward the area of your choosing when it opens. Disney Resorts Collection hotel Guests are able to enter Fantasyland and Tomorrowland 30 minutes early, so if you're not staying at a Disney hotel, you might want to wait near the entrance of Adventureland and head to an attraction like Jungle Cruise to start your day.

    Be sure to stop by Guest Relations to pick up complimentary pins that each of you can wear to show everyone that you're celebrating a birthday! Cast Members will love to take the opportunity to give you their best wishes as you enjoy your time at the park.

    Jessica, I hope this is helpful to you as you continue to count down to the big birthday bash! Please stop by planDisney with any other questions you have!

    TTFN! Ta-ta for now!
