ADR opinions

[chloelovesdisney]

As usual my plans keep changing. I was able to get us SDD FP+ but only in the evening so may have to cancel our Prime Time adr. WWYD?

Day 1 - Arrival - MNSSHP - I had the Plaza at 5:40p but canceled it, I'd rather use our FP+ till 6p instead. Plan to get a quick late lunch at Captain Cook's, drop off our carry ons and head over to MK for the party, hopefully grab dinner at Cosmic Ray's sometime during the party.

Day 2 - 1900 Park Faire late breakfast (I'm thinking about canceling this one), pool time and Poly resort activities, watch water pageant and fireworks by the beach. Casual day, plan to eat by the pool, maybe grab apps and a drink at Trader Sam's late afternoon.

Day 3 - Blizzard Beach - no adrs - may go to Chip and Dale Sing Along at Fort Wilderness in the evening if we're not too tired. Anyone know if the food at the truck/wagon there is decent? Last time we went to Trail's End but had to rush to get to the sing along.

Day 4 - Epcot morning/hop to DHS 2:30p - Garden Grill 8:25a, Via Napoli 12:45p, Prime Time 6:20p (I originally had only Via Napoli, then added Prime Time and just got Garden Grill this week). I have a SDD FP+ 6:50p-7:50p, I'm leaning towards canceling Prime Time and not worry about racing to the end of our FP time slot. Also considering canceling Via Napoli but like to have an air conditioned lunch break.

Day 5 - Kona breakfast, then pool day at the Poly, Disney Springs in the evening. Any ideas for a casual Disney Springs dinner besides WPE? I'm up for something new.

Day 6 - AK - 10:40a Tusker House RoL package, thinking of canceling and hopping to the MK for the evening instead

Day 7 - 'Ohana late breakfast then pool time, ME pick up will be about 3:30p

Less than four weeks out now, the count down is on! That means I'll revise my spreadsheet another hundred times.

I like your suggestion to cancel Prime Time. I’ve heard you can still get a PB&J milkshake at the bar, even get it to go.
For me, Dining takes a ton of time out of the day, you can’t get in a 20 min ride line if it’s 30 min before the ADR Incase it takes longer... (with (2) I almost feel like I spent my full day eating)

D-Luxe burger is a decent casual dinner at Disney Springs (order at a counter, get your own drinks, but they bring the food to you)

Or catch a movie at the dine-in AMC theater?

Day is 4 seems like a a lot of food without much time in between.

Day 5 Blaze Pizza for a casual dinner.

Personally, I would add more park time and that could allow you to spread out those 3 ADRs that you have on Day 4. You only have 2 park days + MNSSHP for 7 days with a hopper. I would prefer 3 days and not hop from EP to DHS on Day 4, do one a day.

For QS at DS there is the new Guy Fieri chicken place that may be worth checking out or D-Luxe burgers.

I think I will cancel Prime Time. I've been holding on in case I am able to move our SDD FP earlier, but so far no luck. I'll check out D-Luxe burger, thanks!

I'll look up the menu at Blaze Pizza, if we cancel Via Napoli that can be our pizza meal.

My mom is coming this time, when she joins us we limit it to a couple of park days. Blizzard Beach is our compromise, she can hang in a lounge chair all day long and everyone else is free to go on the slides, etc.. I'll check out the new Guy Fieri place, sounds good, thanks!

Gotcha, makes sense. In this case, I would definitely drop either Via Napoli or Prime Time because you will already have limited park time so I'd do one QS meal in there for sure. My first thought was drop Via Napoli and maybe do Sunshine Seasons for that A/C break, but then I noticed the timing of your ADR and SDD FP and you may be a bit rushed if you get seated late. So, unless you can move that ADR up by 20 - 30 minutes, I would drop that one and not stress over the SDD FP timing.

Day 4 is a lot of food. I would definitely drop Prime Time (visit Woody’s Lunch Box QS instead), and I would consider dropping the Via Napoli (I wouldn’t be able to eat a full lunch after an AYCTE breakfast and that’s not a lot of time in between the two).

It just kills me when people make so many plans and then are changing them every five seconds.
No wonder people think planning is stressful. I guess it is when you make it that way.
I just booked my trip for August 29th to September 2nd 2 days ago.
I booked my ADR's and FP+ and other than having to call IT due to a FP+ problem with MNSSHP tickets I'm ready to roll.

3 TS meals in one day?!
That seems absolutely nuts to me.

Pick the one you want to go to the most and keep it.
Personally I'd probably keep the GG ADR and cancel the other 2.
I would definitely cancel PT in favor of a SDD FP+ if you want to ride it!

At DS we personally love EOS but it seems like a love it or hate it place.

As for cancelling or keeping other ADR's my thought is if you're leaning towards cancelling then its probably what you should do.
