6 nights: will it be enough?

[FatCow]

I will be at WDW from noon 15th of Feb to (around) 3pm 21st of Feb.

Plan: MGM, AK, Epcot, MK

To travel leisurely, of course, it won't be enough time. However, my daughter's been asking me whether it's going to be enough time to ride all (or at least, virtually all) the rides.

Anybody have any more accurate idea than mine?

TIA

Are you using UPH? If so, you can save costs by splitting your ressies into room only arrival, UPH for middle, room only departure.

So
Sun 15th Arrive around noon
Mon 16th MGM (EE AK)
Tue 17th AK (EE MGM)
Wed 18th EPCOT (EPCOT)
Thur 19th MK (MK)
Fri 20th Open for other activities
Sat 21st around till 3

Crowds should be very low unless I am missing a holiday somewhere. You probably won't hit EVERY ride, but you can get pretty darn close!
Suggestions: Finish your AK day after the Jammin Jungle Parade at EPCOT. Consider Thursday for Epcot after going to MK EMH and going to MK on Friday. That opens up Wednesday for anything you want, even a breather and a relaxing day

I'm using UPH because on the day of arrival (10am, so I can be at the park around noon), MK closes at 10pm. On the day of departure, I can be at MK again from 9am to 2pm, then take TTC back to ASMu and grab a town-car (already booked), leave at 4:30pm to get to the airport.

I got the exact same plan, to leave AK after the 3pm parade and head to the ASMu, change/take shower, then head back to Epcot (to finish up Epcot).

The only two PS we're taking are Cindy's Breakky and Fantsmic Din-din Package.

oh, and it's President's Week.

I think you'll be fine. With the UPH, I'd stick with the front loaded plan so you have time built in to relax and go back and redo favorites. If you don't use EMH, you may still want to do rope drop just for the fun of it.

Are you going to Cirque du Soliel?

 

[FatCow]

okay... stupid question: what is rope-drop?

and "no", we won't go see Cirque. Although this is officially my vacation, I'm going to spend all the time to go and ride things my daughter wants. Even if it means riding Dumbo for 5 days.

If you arrive at the park entrance early (30-45 minutes prior to scheduled opening) Disney typically opens the entrance gates. Inside the park (hub at mk, Sunset (?) blvd towards ToT at Studios) there are Cast Members stationed with ropes in between them to let you know where to wait. The cast members "drop the rope" and let you in. Frequently before the published "park Opening" time.

If your daughter is a dumbo-a-holic, then EMH and Rope Drop are the best ways to get lots of Dumbo time.

BTW my kids (18, 16, 11, 7) love Cirque.
