I know this is a little early to ask such a detailed planning question, but I am anticipating that I might hear about a price increase and have to pull the trigger on our tickets, so I thought I would ask.
We are going to DLR in December. At this point I’m thinking we’ll get a 2-day park hopper. My question is about the best days for us to go given the days we have available, which are:
Wednesday seems like a no-brainer; the question is when to use as the second day. If we choose Thursday, we’ll have the MM guests already in the park when we get in. So we could choose Friday, but then it’s Christmas Eve, and I’m afraid it will be (even more of) a madhouse. We are early risers and have no problem getting to the gates before they open.
The only other option would be to go for 3-day hopper. This would give us the MM, but would require that I convince my husband that a third day is a good idea. This is highly, highly unlikely. He already thinks the second day is overkill, the third day might get me “the look” (we were there for 5 days in June). It is quite possible the third day would go unused, and I will have paid an extra $112 just for MM.
Any thoughts? DISers have never steered me wrong.

- Wednesday, December 22: Non-MM day
- Thursday, December 23: MM day (but we wouldn’t have MM access)
- Friday, December 24: non-MM day, but Christmas Eve

. I was so spoiled by the MMs we had in June that I'm having had a hard time getting past going without them with the 2-day hopper. Is Christmas Eve really that much of a nightmare? I thought it wouldn't be too bad, but I guess that's wishful thinking.
