Hi everyone! Sorta new here and had a question. If we are staying at AoA and need to get to Chef Mickeys at 9:50 am, what time should we board the shuttle(bus?)? First time for us at WDW.
Oh yes, mrsincredible reminded me of something . . . since buses don't run from resort to resort you can just ride to Magic Kingdom and walk to the Contemporary, it should be a relaxing walk early in the morning!!  - DizneyGirl  352.8 #9 7:39AM
I would say an hour early. I don't know how the bus system works for AoA. But maybe someone else will come along with more knowledge! - JessiBelle22  77.8 #54 12:57PM
I would say 8:30. Just because AoA is new and don't know how the busses run. You might have to wait for one there and wait for the monorail at MK. - BodinFabFive  26.3 #108 1:16PM
Welcome! I agree 1 to 1 1/2 hours prior. - DizneyGirl  352.8 #9 1:59PM
I agree with everyone else. No less than an hour or you'll cut it way too close because you may have to wait again for transportation. I'd probably take the monorail to the Contemporary once you're at MK. - Jalex239  379.8 #7 2:30PM
You can also call aoa and they might even be able to tell u to but nothing comes better than advice from mousewait - firestorm64rt  30.4 #101 2:38PM
Definitely 1hr before !!!! - skcanfield  349.0 #10 2:59PM
I agree! At least one hour. - Tinkerbell1265  369.9 #8 4:20PM
I would take a cab and you can get there for about 12 bucks and they drop you off right at the hotel instead of taking the bus then hoping on the monorail or bus stop for a ride to the contemporary - Dave  8630.6 #2 4:24PM
Thanks everyone! Oh wow a cab, ok. They're pretty far apart then? - ErinluvsJack  24.7 #113 6:00PM
I have heard the buses don't start running until an hour before park opening. And, there are no buses that run directly, resort to resort. Just keep that in mind when making early ressies, and I would leave an hour before your ressie at the latest. We have all early morning ressies at other resorts, and plan to take cabs to save time transferring buses, etc. Also, most of them are a 7:30, so nothing is running at 6:00. :) - mrsincredible  401.8 #5 6:24AM
I would catch the bus around 7:30 to the magic kingdom as everyone is saying,and catch the monorail to the contemporary or walk as DizneyGirl suggested. But def leave early! - mickeynme  102.3 #45 10:14AM
Thanks for all the awesome advice everyone! Looks like the earlier the better if we are taking the bus! - ErinluvsJack  24.7 #113 12:28PM
I believe an hour and a half is the suggested time by Disney. Best way to get there is to bus to magic kingdom and take the monorail to contemporary. Have a magical time - Disneyaddict  200.2 #1624 1:37AM
