Hi Everyone! I'm in need of some advice from some DLP experts..

I'm a Premiere Passholder (live in both Orlando and LA - so I'm at both DL and WDW almost every other week) - but have finally decided to go to DLP for the first time. I only have 3-4 days in Paris, so I'll only probably have one day for DLP. A few questions though

-Is 1 Day enough at DLP (I'll be going in two weeks, mid-late November)?
-How are crowds in Nov (on a Friday or Saturday)?
-Does Fantillusion play in November?
-Is it fairly easy to get in and out of DLP to the city center?
-Is the early entry worth it enough to justify a purchase of an annual pass (esp if by some chance, I end up going two days in a row?)
-As an English speaker, will I have a hard time there?

Thanks for any assistance and help! Definitely excited about this trip!!!

I think I'd go for at least two days if I could. It is very easy to park hop at DLRP though which would make a one day trip possible
.

I'm going first time in November (other trips were March and June) next week but I think weekends are crowded all the time - check holidays as well.

-Does Fantillusion play in November?

Don't know about this.:confused3

-Is it fairly easy to get in and out of DLP to the city center?

Easily accessible by RER A but takes some time - 45minutes. Check parisbytrain website for good train info.

-Is the early entry worth it enough to justify a purchase of an annual pass (esp if by some chance, I end up going two days in a row?)

Not in my opinion as there are not that many attractions open for EMH but you might want to check the list - especially for a one day trip as time will be limited. You can find the list on dlrpmagic website - a few attractions in Discoveryland and several in Fantasyland will be open for EMH. The annual passes are a good value if you might return or go for at least three days - the discounts for food and shopping are helpful too.

-As an English speaker, will I have a hard time there?

No, not at all! But always good to have some basic French.

Thanks for any assistance and help! Definitely excited about this trip!!!

Have a great trip!!:goodvibes
 
Congrats on your upcoming trip!:thumbsup2 DLP does a great job at being bilingual, so you'll find with shows that they'll do certain characters in French (such as Mickey) and the supporting character (such as Minnie/Donald etc) in English so you get what's going on. And CM's mostly all speak very good English, but always try and speak some French to them.
Personally, for one day I wouldn't bother with an annual pass. I would however make sure I was there for opening and stay for the entire day as well as try and go for another day after.
 
Weekends in November are very very busy as the Christmas season has started. If you only have one day the Friday will be better than the Saturday.

You only get early entry with the most expensive AP so its definitely not worth buying just for that if you dont intend using it again
 

Yes Fantillusion is on in November :wizard:
It's part of the xmas celebrations, from what I've learned - it better be on as I'm heading there in 3 days and have never seen it before!
