First timers-Magic Morning

[jentea]

We (me, DH, DS5, DS2) are first timers to DLR but WDW vets. We have 4 park days (12/27-12/30). Our first day in the parks is 12/27 (Sunday). Would this be a good day to do our one Magic Morning? If so, what rides are most 'bang for buck' during this period? TIA!

Magic Morning is only available in Disneyland and only the attractions in Fantasyland and Tomorrowland are open. It really depends on what attractions you want to do. Peter Pan and Hyperspace Mountain are likely to be the most popular attractions during MM. If you're at the front of the MM crowds, I would probably head straight to Peter Pan. If you're towards the middle or back and there is already a long line at Peter Pan when you get to Fantasyland, I would do the other attractions. If you're not into Peter Pan, I would probably opt for Hyperspace Mountain or some of the Tomorrowland attractions.

In terms of days, all days are going to be busy during the time when you're there. I would opt to do MM as early in the trip as possible because I usually find my family has the easier time getting up for it earlier in the trip.

...DS5, DS2...what rides are most 'bang for buck' during this period?

Considering the age of your kids, go for rides in Fantasyland. Skip Peter Pan and other long lines.

Get to the entrance to Disneyland 30-15 minutes before MM starts.
Focus strictly on Fantasyland only, with Peter Pan being first.
DO NOT do attractions like It's a Small World, Storybook, and Submarines during MM. They are long attractions and will take your MM time away.
Dumbo should be after Peter Pan, then Alice, and Matterhorn.
When the park opens you can do Casey Jr., the other Fantasylanbd attractions you may have missed.
Then get to Adventureland around 830am-9am. Grab a FP for Indy, ride Thunder Mountain, Splash, Mansion, Pirates, and use FP for Indy.

Head to FantasyLand and try and ride PP first if you can.

Have fun!!

Hi! When did DCA stop participating in Magic Mornings, and will they ever start again?

DCA is open early for hotel guests only but only on certain days.
