Hi Cortney!
Welcome back to planDisney! What an amazing reservation to snag! Let’s talk about the logistics behind it all.
From my experience, Magic Kingdom often opens to all guests about 30-45 minutes before the listed
Early Entry time. So, there’s a good chance that you’ll be able to enter the park right along with the other guests.
For example, if the park opens at 9:00 AM and Early Entry begins at 8:30 AM, Magic Kingdom often opens around 7:45-8:00 AM. That will give you plenty of time to make your way back to
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. Once guests have entered the park, those eligible to access the attractions for Early Entry will scan into the Tomorrowland or Fantasyland areas, while other guests can enjoy Main Street U.S.A.
If you have access to Early Entry, you can scan in to get to Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique since it’s located in Fantasyland. And if you don’t, just let a Cast Member know about your reservation, and they’ll make sure you get there in time.
When you arrive at the park that morning, I recommend chatting with a Cast Member about your reservation, and they can update you on what the entry protocol will be that day. If the park will be opening early enough, they’ll likely have you enter along with the other guests. But if it will be opening after your reservation time, they’ll direct you to where you need to be in order to make it to your reservation on time.
Even if you end up entering the park with everyone else, you’ll still be able to snag some great photos in front of Cinderella Castle with minimal crowds. It’s one of my favorite times of day at
Magic Kingdom for that exact reason!
I hope that helps! And that you have the most magical morning! If you have any other questions, feel free to come back and visit us.
