Welcome back to planDisney with a great question, Wayne! We are thrilled to continue to assist you as you plan your upcoming Disney adventure.
I am a big fan of
character dining, and I always book at least one character meal whenever I visit the Walt Disney World Resort. I believe this is the best way to interact with Disney friends because you can enjoy a delicious meal while you wait, and they actually come to greet you at your table.
Please note that
complimentary transportation begins about 45 minutes before theme park opening time, so if you have a 7:30 a.m. reservation at
Chef Mickey’s, I recommend using a rideshare service, taking a taxi, or driving to Disney’s Contemporary Resort, where the restaurant is located. You may be late for your reservation if you take a bus from Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort to Magic Kingdom Park because you will still have to walk to Disney’s Contemporary Resort.
It was a pleasure answering your question, Wayne. I hope this information is helpful and that you have a magical visit to the Walt Disney World Resort!
Best Disney wishes,
Thiana
