I need some expert DL advice.
We are visiting the parks on Sept 14 & 15th (Monday and Tuesday). If my research and planning is right, then crowd volume should be relatively low those days (early sept, weekdays etc).
As of now we have single day tickets. The first 2 reservation agents agreed with my theory that since it is our first visit to DL that we probably won't have that much of a use for park hopping.
Then I talked to another res agent (have been making some changes other than the tickets) and she said that I'd be better off with the hopper.
Now I am torn. I know I can upgrade once I am there which was my original thought - if we really find ourselves wanting to hop... but that most recent res agent said that you have to go to a specific place to upgrade and they have limited hours - so they might not be open at the time that we want to hop, plus we might waste time doing the upgrade that we could be using to enjoy the parks.
Footnote - We are staying at DLH, so we will have EMH and will most likely take advantage of that.
So DL experts - what do you think? If we want to be sure to see/experience as much as possible (primarily ride driven - shows/parades etc are less priority) can we do it well on single day passes? Or would it be better to upgrade to hoppers? I'd hate to upgrade and then feel forced to hop if we are really enjoying a park, just so we can feel we got our moneys worth.
