Hi Jenna!
You are going to love
Cinderella's Royal Table. My daughter and I dine there every year for breakfast and we love the food, the atmosphere, and dining in
Cinderella Castle. We always do an early morning reservation when we eat at Cinderella's Royal Table and it is wonderful because we can eat early and get out to enjoy the park.
All Guests who have a pre-park opening breakfast reservation are allowed to enter the park around 7:45 am. My personal preference is to arrive at the Tickets and Transportation Center (TTC) 45-30 minutes prior to my reservation time. From my experience, when driving to the park, cars are allowed to arrive and begin lining up one hour prior to the park opening. Cast Members begin letting cars in to park about 15 minutes later, which is approximately 45 minutes prior to the park opening. The monorails begin running 30 minutes prior, so you can hop on the
monorail from TTC and arrive at
Disney's Magic Kingdom.
When you arrive at the Magic Kingdom gates, inform a Cast Member that you have an early dining reservation and you will be allowed to enter.
While you are at Magic Kingdom, make sure to head over to Fantasyland and ride the
Prince Charming Regal Carrousel. This is one of my favorite underrated attractions!
I hope you have a magical vacation!
Magically,
Stacy
