So, my sister and her family and us are pulling our RV to the Fort and staying for a month in 2025. We have thought about Annual Passes but they are pretty expensive now. We looked at the UK tickets 14 days but max usage is 18 day window.
Beyond buying 2 sets of tickets, does anyone have any idea of how to stretch maybe a 10 day or even the 14 day UK one out longer?
I am posting this on the Budget board since it is about mula but it can be moved if needed! ha
You're not going to be able to stretch either of those tickets to cover 30 days. The 14 day UK ticket would cover 18 days in the middle of the trip but then what else to you do for the first 6 and last 6 of your stay?
Arrival day is pretty easy. You can take advantage of the free water park day that Disney is offering for arrival day only in 2025.
Day #2 (first full day) Get to know The Fort. Bicycle or golf cart around and get your bearings. Stop at the Tri Circle D Ranch and say hello to the horses. Spend some time at the pool and plan a nice dinner for the evening.
Day #3 It’s going to be hard to not visit a park on this day. You're sooo close but yet can't go in! Head over to WL. Ask for a hidden Mickey scavenger hunt sheet. Have a drink in the Teritory Lounge or Geyser Point along the way. Head back to the Fort for a swim. Maybe do Hoop de Doo for dinner or go to the campfire sing along after dinner in the RV. Bring along fixings for s'mores.
Day #4 Time for a monorail crawl! Sleep in. Do breakfast and lunch at the RV. Take the boat launch to CR if it is operating. If not then take a boat to the MK and monorail over to CR. Your goal is to have a snack in each of the 3 monorail resorts. Check menus for QS, lounges and pool bars ahead of time and make a plan. Sharing is allowed. Dinner in the RV. Pop some popcorn and head to the boat dock to watch MK fireworks.
Day #5 Time to head off of Disney property for a day. Head to the outlet mall if shopping is your thing. Or take in the kitch of I-Drive. A GoCity 2 choice pass runs around $60 on the discount ticket sites. They're good for 60 days. Choose one attraction for now. Save one for after your Disney pass expires. Eat dinner some place offsite. Do some grocery shopping on the way back to the Fort. You're probably low on a few things. Grab snacks to take into the parks.
Day #6 Still waiting to use that pass but you've got one more day to wait. Make it a pool day. Do laundry. Treat yourself to an early dinner at a resort restaurant. Get some shuteye. You start bright and early at your park of choice.
Days #7-24 Enjoy the theme parks, mini golf and water parks. Sprinkle 4 non-park days in there where you don't use your ticket. Sleep in on those days. Book a fishing excursion. Do some shopping in Disney Springs. Make another grocery run. Explore the Epcot area resorts and have lunch at the Riviera.
Day #25 Sadly, you have no more park admissions. Your tickets have expired. Today is truly a sad day. Drown your sorrows by doing laundry (you know you need to!). Enjoy the pool and plan to BBQ something for dinner.
Day #26 Head offsite to use that second GoCity attraction. Grab a late lunch offsite and shop for souvenirs. Book a fireworks cruise if the budget allows. Otherwise, watch the MK fireworks from the Poly beach while sipping on your beverage of choice.
Day #27 What haven't you done by now?!! How about a visit to AKL? Check out the unique resort. Talk to the cultural ambassadors and get detailed info about the decorations found in the lodge. Grab a rocking chair and watch the animals graze on the savanna. Eat a zebra dome. Maybe two.
Day #28 Man! It's hard to be so close and yet not be able to go into a park! You've visited most of the resorts, watched fireworks from different angles and samples treats from a variety of locations. But have you played pickleball? Made a tye dye shirt? Have you ridden a surrey bike around Crescent Lake? Or maybe a horse drawn carriage ride sounds like fun? Time to check those things off of your bucket list.
Day #29 (last full day?) It's an awful feeling but you've got to do some prep for breaking camp tomorrow. Go through your food supply and consider offering your extras to a neighbor. Fold, wrap and stow things you don't intend to use today. It will make tomorrow morning go a lot smoother. Then spend the afternoon enjoying what you love best about the Fort. Dinner can either be a smorgasbord of leftovers or a quiet meal in one of the resort restaurants.
Day #30 Time to pack up and move! Check out time is 11 AM and unlike those swells in the hotel rooms, you have a lot more to do than just cram everything into a suitcase. Grab an energy bar and hop to it! Once you've taken care of everything, head out for a real breakfast at Whispering Canyon. If it's a Saturday or Sunday head on over to Disney Springs for brunch at the Boathouse or Homecoming.
