We have stayed offsite and dined at CRT with a 8 a.m. PS. How close is your accomodations to the Magic Kingdom? We stayed pretty close offsite and made sure we were in the parking lot no later than 7:20 a.m. (and that's parked time). The traffic was very light (we were there for a nonearly entry day_ and we got a great parking place. Walked to TTC. CM will be stationed there and will ask if you have a PS. You then hop on the resort monorail. After stopping at the resorts, you will arrive at the MK. Go to the far left entrance and you will need to know your PS number to get in. You will LOVE your 8 a.m. CRT. It's nice to walk into an uncrowded park. And IMHO the food and interaction (from the princesses) is much better at the first seating plus you will then be inside the park when you finish breakfast. Enjoy!
