Has anyone done both FP+ the same night: MSEP and Wishes

[vinotinto]

I just made FP+ for MSEP and Wishes on our leisure day (Blizzard Beach and Cali Grill). What time do I need to arrive at MSEP to see well with kids/short adults (this is in Oct-no daily MSEP). How hard is it to make it to Wishes after, and will it be packed by then?

1. What time do I need to arrive at MSEP to see well with kids/short adults (this is in Oct-no daily MSEP).
2a. How hard is it to make it to Wishes after, and
2b.will it be packed by then?

1. 20-30 minutes before start-time will be fine.

2a. It will be difficult, at best.
2b. Definitely.
The best strategy is to get into the street IMMEDIATELY as the end of MSEP goes by, and follow the end of the parade down Main Street. Go as far as you can toward the Hub, and then jump over into the sidewalk to get to either of the Wishes FP+ areas.

Robo, I know you've posted it somewhere before, but I forgot to bookmark it. Where is the wheelchair area for these two events again? I'm trying to decide if I'd rather

A) Get a MSEP FP for all of us and stay in one spot for both events
B) Stake out a spot near the hub (we had a FP spot in 2013 for MSEP and it was a GREAT view)
C)Find the WC reserved spot

We are a party of 5 (3 healthy adults capable of curb-sitting, one 87 year old in a wheelchair, one nearly 5 year old that can sit in laps (if needed)).

A) The MSEP is port viewing for Wishes, terrible viewing for Celebrate the Magic.
B) Yes. Arrive early. (EARLY.)
C) Unknown. That spot may change as the Hub construction continues.

Thanks. I'm bummed out that they switched the FP for MSEP, it was a GREAT spot before (at least in my opinion). You could easily see both. That being said, other than having more space before, I'm glad that they switched the FP for Wishes, because the view wasn't that good (imo).
