Can we do 4 parks in 3 days in Sept?

[Cyndo723]

Here's my problem,
My DD(16), her best friend and I are taking a quick weekend trip to WDW Sept. 15-18. We will have all day Friday and Saturday, and until 5pm Sunday before we catch the last flight home. We have free dining, and have ADRs for TS late afternoon each day. My DD and I have been to WDW several times, and would be happy just hitting our favorite things, but DDF has never been and probably won't have the opportunity to return any time soon. We would really like her to experience all of the parks. Is is possible to hit the highlights of all 4 parks in just under 3 days? I'm hoping the crowds will be relatively low, making things a little easier. Any intenerary help would be appreciated.

I don't see that it would be a problem at all! Great time of year and with it just the 3 of you, you can make great time, ect! Have fun!

Make sure you take ponchos, it's the rainy season. If you plan right, with Fast Passes, especially, you should be able to hit all 4 parks. Only problem might be Saturday, I've read that the MK gets alot of Florida residents on Saturdays.

I've done the 4 parks in 3 full days before.

It's tiring, but it can be done!

I'd plan a whole day for MK.

Then do MGM and Epcot together in one day because they are close to
each other, you can hop a boat over to Epcot from MGM or even go to the Boardwalk and walk over.

I'd do AK on the day you have to leave at 6pm, they close at 5pm anyway I think and if you get there at open you should be able to get in quite a bit of it. Have fun!!!!

This is a pretty good plan, but I'd change it in this way:

-1 full day for MK
-1/2 day (AM) for MGM, 1/2 day (PM) for Epcot WS and a FW attraction or two
-1/2 day (AM) for Epcot FW, rest of day for AK (on day you have to leave at 6)

We did all 4 parks, 1 waterpark, and Boardwalk in three full days last year during Jersey Week- you should have smaller crowds than us. My biggest tip- get up early and be at the parks at opening- you can get a LOT done before most of the crowds get there. You'll be exhausted, but you'll have a great time!

I have been the last 5 years for 2 weeks at a time in september. I have never waited more than 15 min (if that) in a line. I have never used fast pass either. It has been so slow! I would do AK in one day and tehn may epcot at night for dinner and the few major attractions. You will probably need a fast pass for soarin but everything else should be fine. I have also never been rained on but of course that can always change.

i'd check for emh days. don't do Mk on a Sat it was packed in fantasy land in Jan. which is slower than sept. i would do ak early ( safari is much better early, see way more animals than in the pm) & then either go to epcot or do Ak the last day ( we spent 2 full days at AK ,,it depends on what we like). I would do mgm early, go to tot and rnr first thing then probably skip some/most of the shows ( mgm is by far my least favorite, the shows are good but not as good as lion king and more "little kid oriented" i would leave there by mid afternoon and go to MS, TT and soarin in Fw then head to ws for dinner( we like to snack around the world, gives a little taste of each country) and see illuminations. depending on what time Mk closes or you finish there you might head over to epcot after that too via the monorail ( we normally spent 1 day at mk, 1 at mgm and 2 each at epcot and ak with teen aged kids)

Do MK, MGM and AK each day and do EPCOT after a short rest and a shower or swim in the late afternoon and evening, a bit each night.

I took my wife for her first trip in March for three days. We did Epcot day one, MK day two, started day 3 at AK to do Safari, Bug and FOTLK before finishing up at MGM for STar Tours and Muppets. We didn't want to do TOT or RRC; if you do, I'd probably switch the order on day 3. We saw eveything we most wanted to and had a great time.

I really like this plan!!! I love MK and Epcot the best and this way y'all will able to spend the most time at those parks. Also, AK only takes bout 1/2 a day...although MGM can take a bit longer w/all of the scheduled shows.

After visiting the parks for a 5 days we choose the 6 day to ride all of our favorite rides. We start in Epcot ride MS and TT. Jump over to MK via the monorail which is a ride in itself. At the MK we do the 3 mountain ranges and Buzzlight year. Hope the train to the entrance and float over to TTC for a bus ride to MGM and do ToT and RnR. After all this we drag ourselves back to the bus for a ride back to the resort.
