Can't Decide about Park Hoppers

[shyjade]

We are huge fans of park hoppers. We skipped them for a shorter (4 night) trip in 2012 and I really regretted it. Of course, that was the trip that Soarin' was shut down for an entire day unexpectedly so without the hoppers we didn't get to ride it that trip (it's a favorite of ours).

I love the flexibility it gives us. I will cut corners other places, but never again for hoppers! Especially these days with the new FP+.

I agree with everyone that mentioned- the longer you stay there is a good chance you don't need PH as much because you have more time to do everything you want and focus on one park a day, rather then trying to squeeze all parks or even a few of the parks in a short trip. Although I am a PH myself lol. But I have been debating on not getting it for our trip this time, we mostly spend a day at one park and if we do end up at a different park it's only because of maybe a dinner reservation, which I could avoid and just plan better to make sure our reservations occur in the park we are already in. But then again PH give you that flexibility if needed. Hard to say! I'm in the same boat as you on this

We have never purchased PH. On our last trip we got PAPs and were staying at BLT, but never went to more than one park in a day. It's just the way we like to do it. I have our summer trip planned (still with PAPs) and I only have two parks planned for one day of the trip.

I would agree with the other posters who have said to wait and see.

I should clarify that we're a family of two, and my daughter is 16, so a last minute trip to a park to watch the nighttime show or to utilize PM EMH's is easy for us. PH's are a must for us my family, but if we had a large family or small children, I'm just my opinion would be very different.
