PORS on MDE... First stop, Last Stop or Something in Between???

We're flying into MCO Friday at 7:00PM, and am hoping to make a quick run to MK for a few late evening rides.. I FP'ed BTMRR for 9:00PM-1000PM, Tommorowland Speedway for 1000-1100 and 7DMT from 1100-1200..

How realistic is that we'll make it to the park for the three FP's?

I've only taken the MDE once and that was to Boardwalk. I'm hoping it'll be an hour or less to get to PORS once we land. Maybe wishful thinking, but really would like to get in a few rides before MK closes for the night.. awesome

When I went to French Quarter last summer, Old Key West was the first stop. Looking back at my trip report French Quarter was the third stop. Riverside may have been the second stop. I really don't remember. It's possible we may have gone to Saratoga Springs second since we were in the Disney Springs area.

I know, big help. lol

The moral of the story is (unless something has changed) Riverside is not the first stop.

One thing to keep in mind - they might stick you on a completely different bus route, and if they do it might take longer than usual to get where you're going. We once got a bus tour of all the MK resorts on our way to Old Key West, which normally isn't on that route. Also got a similar tour of resorts that aren't normally on the AKL route and were the only people left on the bus when we finally arrived at AKL. I guess they'd rather get your butts on any bus rather than make you stand around MCO until enough people show up for your resort.

Good to know... Thanks!! I'm guessing with the late arrival and low season (not that there really is a low season), I'm thinking we will be alone or close to it on our bus sad eek

I'm still going to MK before it closes for the night, regardless!!! mickey yeah
