    I have reservations at Chef Mickeys for 7:00am the day we check out. How do I get to the Contemporary Resort early enough for our reservations? What is the best mode of transportation at that time of the morning?

    Hi Kathleen:

    The general buses start running to the Parks about an hour prior to Park opening.  And special buses to the Parks start running even earlier, as early as 6:30, for Guests who have early morning character breakfast reservations at restaurants inside the Parks and close by Resorts. These buses are unofficially referred to as "breakfast buses." I would confirm with a Cast Member at your Resort that early morning buses to the Parks will be running for you to catch your 7:00 am character breakfast.  The bus will likely drop you off at Magic Kingdom, where you can take a 10 minute walk from the Magic Kingdom to the Contemporary.  I would let the bus driver know that you have a reservation at the Contemporary, and he or she may be able to drop you off directly at the Resort. 

    Of course, if you want to guarantee that you will be at the restaurant on time or are like me and want the extra minutes of sleep, you can take a taxi.  Taxis are generally waiting outside Resorts, or your Resort concierge can help you arrange one.

    Enjoy your vacation.
