Do what works best for your family! We are morning people and much prefer to get an early start on the day and beat the crowds. We sleep in as late as possible by having stuff ready the night before, waking the kids at the last minute and eating on the go. As far as planning, I like to plan...

I saw that post a few weeks ago then seemed like it was removed. Really hope there aren't issues...

My plan is similar. I personally like to plan my mornings and lunch and then leave my afternoon/evenings open to wing it more. With that said, we generally make our ADR's for lunch. We have a dinner ADR our first day because we plan to sleep in, swim, and then head to Epcot in the afternoon...

The forecasts do make it sound like it's all day right now and hoping that not to be true! We had planned to be back at the resorts from about 2-6 every day to use the pool and nap. Hoping that doesn't get ruined. I also had planned to do a late WP day one day but that may not happen. Hoping...

Between last night and this morning prices dropped $50+ for me from Aug 12-23 $333 for full size using Costco. Was cheaper last night through Alamo but cheaper this morning on Costco's site. Still hoping to get it lower....

Disney is definitely getting more and more expensive but I think frequency and how we do it is what is changing for us. We live near DL and have had AP for the last 9 years but have decided it no longer makes sense at least not every year. So, we have taken a break and decided to do WDW this...

My FP+ window opens tonight so I went to login to MDE just to make sure all looked well and I was ready to go. I have a room + convention ticket reservation through the magical agency. Our reservations and tickets show up (but they assigned me the Child ticket instead of my daughter). I...

This is our first time with FP+ but in general I like to plan out my mornings and keep my afternoons/evening flexible so I am planning to do FP starting mid morning starting at either 10 or 10:30. I've been playing with touring plans and trying to figure out what works best as far as what to do...

We get in very late on our arrival day as well. Our plan for our first full day is to sleep-in, have breakfast at the hotel, make a grocery store run (likely one parent), explore the resort and swim and then hit Epcot around 3 or 4. We plan to hit a few of the rides (we'll use FP+ for major...

I decided to go ahead and buy 8 day tickets knowing we may take a day off and only use 7 days. I figured for the extra $40 ($10/ticket x 4) it was worth buying an extra day that we may or may not use. If we need an off day I want to give ourselves an option mid trip to do so. Now just need...

We are staying 5 nights on-site (W-M) then moving to a condo (M-Sun). Our plan is to hit universal on Tues/Wed. We are leaving Thurs, Fri, Sat kind of open in case we want one more day. We have never done US/IOA so kids are excited but we aren't sure how long we'll want there. I have debated...

I have always found that scheduling my morning and playing the afternoon/evening by ear works best with young kids. I try to make sure the must do's are planned early in the day and then leave room for things like shows, play areas, etc later in the day when lines aren't as much of an issue...

I'm in the same boat! We are going in Aug - first trip in the summer and first trip using FP+. Trying to lay out plans is tough....there are so many moving parts with ADR, weather and FP+, + our moods/tiredness. I have one day blocked off for water parks and then was blocking a couple of...

To me this is always the hardest park to schedule! I am trying to do a 3/4 day as well. I decided to try going on an EMH day to help. Here is my plan (though I have a few different attractions listed than you). I'm not super thrilled about having to do the shows back to back and I am...

Our first trip to WDW was when my oldest was 19 months, then we went when they were 2 and 4 and 4 and 6. We're going back this year and they will be 8 (almost 9) and 11. I don't think either of them really remember the trip when they were 2 and 4 but my son has memories of the trip when he was...

This coming Aug will be our first trip in the summer but when we have stayed off-site in the past, we haven't generally taken a break back at the room. Generally HS and AK days tend to be all day parks for us because of all the shows in the afternoon (of course AK closes early so it's not that...

From some of the touring plan websites I have read it sort of sounds like after 2 pm things start to lighten up again. Does anyone have experience with that? We are thinking of going later say around 3 pm and staying later (water parks close at 8p I think during the summer). I figured that...

Not sure if you'll have full days your arrival and departure days or not but I would probably do something like this: Mk 3 days (with breaks to swim since it'll be easy to get back to your resort) AK 1 day plan opening until 3 or 4ish if your kids like shows (this could be your departure day if...

I think touringplans is worth the money and I've been working with the customized touring plans. I just want to add that what I have found really works the best for my family is using a touringplan in the morning to try to optimize the least crowded time in the park and then after lunch we wing...

We are going to be there in Aug as well. Still trying to firm up dates but I believe we will be off-site Aug 8-13th and then at the Poly from the 13th-18th on the Magical Deal! The original plan was 2 full weeks but had to shift dates around other kid commitments. Hoping we might be able to...
