Having a hard time with park strategy Nov 8-14th any advice?

[frechettegirl]

I had originally wanted this week with FD but October 31- Nov 6th became available so I booked and made my dining reservations.
Now my TA called and said she got my first choice dates 11-8 thur 11-14 BUT its a tough week because the wishes fireworks are only planned twice that week and both days the park isn't recommended.
If you are going that week what is your strategy? I've been staring at these papers all day and need to figure them out for my dining plans tomorrow.
Thanks for any advice.

What it comes down to is this: do you want to see Wishes or not?

Personally, I don't care if I see it again or not.

Here's what I would do:

• 11/8 - MK
• 11/9 - Epcot
• 11/10 - MK (or AK if it's not possible to go on the 14th)
• 11/11 - Epcot
• 11/12 - MK
• 11/13 - DHS
• 11/14 - AK

do you have park hopper tickets? you could always just hop over to MK to watch wishes at night but not be there all day if it's not recommended.. I think all FD packages included park hopper?

That's a good point. Having park hoppers would substantially change my plans.

 

[frechettegirl]

Yes, I do have Park hoppers. This will be my first time using Park hoppers so I really don't know the best way to use them.
We will want to see the fireworks at least one day as this will be my daughters first visit (5).
Thank you for the feedback!

Thats the first week of MVMCP, with parties on the 8th, 10th, 12th and 13th. so MK will close to non-partygoers at 7 those nights, and there will be no wishes. If you want to see Wishes, I would plan for MK on the 9th and/or 11th. I personally ignore the 'recommended' parks chart.

If it were you... would you chose October 31 thur November 6th or the second week of November?

We're hitting the same thing in Oct. What about going on a party day, and then doing dinner at one of the places you can see wishes with the music?

I can answer that question (I don't think it was directed at me, but you'll get my answer anyway). We are in fact going to be at WDW from October 30-November 9th. We chose that week specifically so taht we can go to both MNSSHP and MVMCP.

Plan your AK day for one of the days MK has Wishes. Go to AK until they close and then hop to MK just for Wishes.

Make all your other MK days party days. They will be less crowded than any other day at MK. You can always hop to another park for evening events or dinner.
