    We have a breakfast reservation at Steakhouse 71 at 7:30am. Will the monorail open in time to ride to our reservation from the Magic Kingdom parking lot? What is the best plan for parking since we plan to enter Magic Kingdom when it opens that day?

    Hey there, Hi there, Ho there, Jessica!

    Thanks for stopping by planDisney, where we are eager to help answer your questions to help you experience the most magical Disney vacation possible. It sounds like you have a great start to your day at Magic Kingdom Park planned with breakfast at Steakhouse 71. It is my pleasure to offer you options for making your way to Disney’s Contemporary Resort and then to Magic Kingdom Park shortly after. 

    If you plan to park at the Transportation and Ticket Center, transportation to Magic Kingdom Park will not be running until 7:30 AM or later. If you are staying at a Disney Resort hotel on the monorail line, the monorail will begin running 30 minutes before Early Theme Park Entry for Magic Kingdom Park.

    Since you will want to arrive for your breakfast reservation about 15 minutes early, I recommend driving directly to the Contemporary Resort to park for your breakfast reservation at Steakhouse 71. You will need to show your reservation information and will have a 2-hour parking limit. If you don’t want to fuss with moving your car after breakfast, I recommend having a ride share bring you to your breakfast reservation so that you can take the walkway or ride the monorail to Magic Kingdom Park once you have finished your breakfast. 

    I hope this information helps, Jessica, and that you have a lovely meal at Steakhouse 71 before an unforgettable day at Magic Kingdom Park. If you have more questions, please bring them here to planDisney. You’ve got a friend in me, in all of us here, so stop by anytime we can help. 

    See Ya Real Soon!
