Arrival Day at the PARK?

[LglBlonde]

Hi, we actually fly in Sat, May 29, but will be driving to Tampa to visit family. We plan to drive from Tampa to Orlando and check into POR on Mon, May 31. We'd love to get to one of the parks these days? I was thinking MGM would not take as long to see as some of the other parks.

If we coudl get to MGM by noon, could we see it all by that night? I think it closes at 9 pm. that night. However, I also note Monday is EMH for MGM - will this be a problem? Help!!

We only have Mon-Fri! We are getting five day PHP with two pluses.

Hi! Actually, Monday is EMH at Animal Kingdom, so you won't have that issue to worry about at MGM! That is, unless they've changed it that week for some reason.

As far as seeing everything...well, there's no way to see everything, but from noon until close should give you plenty of time to see your favorites. Sit down and decide what your must-sees are at MGM before you go. A lot depends on how many shows you want to see, those are the real time-drainers, and working around the start times can get tricky. Other than that, you should be fine. Make sure you use Fastpass whenever possible.

Your trip will be for 5 days. Since you will have 5 days of park passes, do you plan to go to Pleasure Island two of those evening? If not, you would save $ by just purchasing 5 day PH passes instead of 5 day PHP.

Yes, we understand how Plus options work and plan to go to Pleasure Island at least twice. If not, we have family in the area we will be visiting in September and will save any leftover days/pluses to use then.

We may even get a 6 day with three PHP since looks like we may return in September and because they NEVER expire.
