Take the bus. Be at the bus stop before 7 just in case. We’ve had no issues being one of the first in the park with the buses.

We stayed at ASMo mid-July 2021 and were at the front of the pack for 7DMT after taking the first bus. All of the first resort buses were held upon arrival at MK, but eventually opened their doors to drop passengers a few minutes before first boats/first monorails arrived. We also had a direct comparison with friends who walked from the Contemporary (and were the second family in line at the walker’s security check) - they were about 10 families ahead of us at the turnstile. Once turnstiles opened, it felt like most people who walked towards the Fantasyland bridge with a clear purpose (as opposed to stopping for photos or coffee) were at the front of the pack.

If you are planning for 7DMT, keep in mind the possibility of delayed opening and have a Plan B to pivot. In our case there was no announcement of an official delayed opening, but there was definitely still some testing going on and even the front of the line still waited for about 10 minutes once we got to the train boarding area.

Good luck!

What a delight to wake up and find so much desire to help. We are going to walk to the busses by 6:30AM. Like @janamelia says, waiting in the moderate morning temps is more comfortable than later.

FRIENDS. I know it’s the weekend. Don’t leave me now! It’s Saturday at MK!

7:04AM and still waiting for the bus.
Epcot, AK, and HS have all had pick ups.

We are first in line, but only by minutes.

In other news - we slept over 9 hours!

@Tonydatiger12 start here for AM times.

PPO breakfasts really are the bomb.

This is sad.

I’ve had a conundrum all week.
Favorite leather sandals that feel good, but I don’t want to destroy in the rain, versus waterproof shoes that feel far less comfortable.

Went for waterproof and some mole skin. Wish I had just wrapped my feet in moleskin.

Does anyone know if I buy something if they will take it to my resort, or is that only for higher level resorts

You’ll have to ask at a shop counter, or ask a clerk, but I don’t know if they are doing that again (yet)?
