We have just returned from Orlando after a 7 day visit from 8/10-14/10. We had planned on only going to the Magic Kingdom on this trip due to getting a one day ticket through a contact. Not having a multi day pass and only physically getting the ticket the day we arrived we didn't use the Fast Pass + system.
We went to the park on Tuesday 11 October for 9am and we were surprised at how close we got parking wise, Simba, and then how easy it was getting across to the park entrance. (Mono rails were down but bused across)
It did not take us long to go through bag check and into the park. This was my 10th visit and I've been at different times of the year but this was our 1st October time. We found the park easy to get around and the lines not too bad.
- Pirates 5 mins
- Splash Mountain 20 mins
- Little Mermaid 20 mins
- Monster Inc - 20 mins
- Hanted Mansion 10 mins
- Railroad - no wait
The only thing we didn't get on that we wanted to do was Seven Dwarves Mine Train which was at 60 minutes and usually we would have waited but we had to leave the park at 5 due to not having the Halloween party tickets.
Granted we didn't have kids who wanted to go on every kids ride & we had been before so we're happy to go to things we like - but not having the Fast Pass + didn't spoil our day drip to the Magic Kingdom and we were delighted as to how much we were able to do and see.
We also enjoyed the new muppets show at Liberty Square, the Main Street parade & the new castle show with Minnie & Mickey.
