Fantasmic ps - which day?

[lisagirlyUK]

HI,

I am now on the 90 day threshold!!! I want to bbok 2 things:

1. PS for Fantasmic Dinner Package at Hollywood & Vine

2. Epcot IllumiNations cruise

I have found out that I can book the Epcot cruise for any evening as we dont have to go into Disney to do this cruise.

However, for the FDP, is there any night recommended we should book for? i was going to coincide it with the visit to Disney that day but I dont even know which one FDP takes place in!!!

Thanks!

The Epcot cruises can be very difficult to secure, so it may be best to try to secure that before attempting to book the Fantasmic package. If you have a cruise, at least you can eliminate that day for Fantasmic.

Fantasmic takes place in MGM Studios and you will need park admission to view it, so you need to do it on a day you're already planning to use for parks, as it will deduct a day from your admission (unless you have APs or UMPs). I would try to avoid EMH days for MGM if you have a choice of days for Fantasmic, as the park will be busier on these days (I'm at work at the moment and can't remeber which days these are, but you should find a link to the info on the main DIS page)

Can I just ask though what EMH means?

Thanks!

LOL!

EMH = Extra Magic Hour when on-site WDW resort guests (i.e. staying in WDW resorts) can access one park an hour earlier than 'regular' guests.

At the moment (May 9 - 22) there is a trial schedule taking place with extra admittance times in the evenings as well, but the 'normal' schedule for EMH at MGM used to be Tuesday and Saturday.
