    I have a reservation to dinner at Chef Mickey by 9:05 PM, we will be that day at Magic Kingdom, will we have enough time to see the fireworks and arrive to Chef Mickey? Can we leave the car in Chef Mickey in the morning to pick up when we finish dinner?

    Hello Irenka!

    I love eating at Chef Mickey's in Disney's Contemporary Resort! You are going to have an amazing dinner experience because of the delicious selection of food and fun with Mickey and friends!

    Typically, it is quick to get from the Magic Kingdom Park entrance to Disney's Contemporary Resort by taking the Resort Monorail (the first stop after you get on the Monorail). According to my experience, this journey only takes around 5 minutes once you are on the Monorail. As far as if there is enough time to see Disney Enchantment, the new nighttime fireworks spectacular and get to your 9:05 pm Chef Mickey's Advanced Dining Reservation, it will depend on when Disney Enchantment is scheduled to begin on that evening. Disney Enchantment is approximately 15 minutes long from start to finish so knowing this might help you plan for the amount of travel time. 

    When you start you Disney day at the Magic Kingdom Park, you would need park at the Ticket and Transportation Center which is the parking lot for the Magic Kingdom Park since your Chef Mickey's Advanced Dining Reservation is later that evening. When Guests dine at a Walt Disney World Resort there is window of time centered around their reservation time to park at that particular Resort. When you are done with your fabulous dinner at Chef Mickey's, you can hop back on the Resort Monorail and get off at the next stop which is the Ticket and Transportation Center where your car is located.

    I hope you have a magical Walt Disney World vacation!
