How would you divide them up? Would you split up the areas and do one or two per day, or would you still circle around the whole park to get more variety? I have our plans set out... just double guessing myself. lol
 
We hit our favs each day but did focus on certain areas each day as well. However it was just me and a 3 yo so we were a bit limited on what we could do.
 
We generally split up the lands. We'll do Adventure and, Frontierland and Liberty Square one day, then Fantasyland and Tomorrowland the next. On the 3 rd day we re ride our favorites.
Saves on mileage.
 
We are all over the map. My daughter loves the Magic Carpets in Adventureland and my son loves the country bears in Frontierland. We have to visit the princesses, ride peter pan, winnie the pooh and dumbo in fantasyland. My daughter loves the cars and my son loves the rockets in Tomorrowland.

However we do try to rotate through the park in a day. So it's not like we do the magic carpets and then run over to Tomorrowland to ride the cars then go back to frontier land to do the country bears. We try to start in Fantastyland, then go to Adventureland and end up in Tomorrowland.

But it's not like it's that far to walk from tomorrowland to adventureland. It's maybe 10 minutes so it's not a big deal for us.
 

We've done 3 days in a row before. We got there at rope drop every day. First day - the morning was spent at Frontier land and Adventure land when you can do most everything in those lands by 11. Then we work our way over to Tomorrow land. Day 2 - Reverse by starting in Tomorrow land. Day 3 - just our favorites and then some of the less traveled attractions - like Hall of Presidents and enjoying not being in a hurry.

We've been to MK more times than I can count, but if there has been any time in-between visits, as hard as we try, we can't seem to relax like we could on that 3rd day of 3 in a row.
 
I would make a list of all the headliners I just had to see and my must do attractions. Then I would divide those up by park location (Not necessarily by land. Just by which ones are grouped closest together. For instance, I usually group HM in with PP and IASW and not with the other Frontierland attractions.) Then I'd do different headliners at rope drop each day, followed by my must do attractions in each section. That way I am garenteed to see all my favorites without waiting, probably even riding some more than once, but would still be minimizing my walking. Then I'd either leave at lunch or do other activities like shows, meals, parades, or shopping in the afternoon on the side of the park I am in. I might cross the park once, but not criss cross back and forth. Then in the evening, I'd do parades and fireworks and just wander around hitting whatever had the lowest waits again avoiding too much backtracking.
 
I would circle the park all 3 days and repeat my favorites and divide up the headliners and other rides that for us once is enough. To me the MK isn't that spread out and easy enough to walk all the way around... even with my low endurance DD in tow!

Yeah that's actually what we're doing... touring around all 3 days. There are some rides my dd will not go on (me neither haha!!!) so some lands are just not enough to keep us there very long, so we shall make our way around the loop each of the days :)

We do this as well. And we often take the train from Frontierland to Fantasyland. :goodvibes
 
3 days at MK is what we like to do and we usually hit RD straight to FL, them we are usually head straight to our favorite rides, HM,, POTC, then we are all over the place. Ending the night with what ever the kids want. With three days there's no rush and you can enjoy the park, maybe even sit down lol
its all about having fun, so have fun :thumbsup2

This is how we generally split it up, too.
 
I am planning 3 MK days on our next trip and am planning to split them up by land. First day will be frontierland and adventureland, second day fantasyland with a lot of princess M&G, BBB, lunch in the castle, etc. cause that day will be my dd's 7th bday. Third day will be tomorrowland then going back and re-riding any favorites.
 
We are doing 2.5 MK days on our upcoming trip. Planning for Adventureland and Frontierland with some Fantasyland thrown in for day 1, Tomorrowland and Fantasyland for day 2, and New Fantasyland on the half day. We don't expect to follow this incredibly strictly, but that's our general idea for touring.
 
We have 4 for our upcoming trip and I haven't planned out our days yet, but we had I think 3 last time. We split up the lands usually. So day one we spent most of the day in Fantasyland did dinner at Crystal Palace and then a couple of rides in the evening in Adventureland followed by the parade in Frontierland. Another day we'd do Fantasyland again and then head to the right to hit Tomorrowland. Main Street we did when we spent time doing Sorcerer's of the Magic Kingdom and the Mickey M&G.

I'm not a fan of crisscrossing all over the parks and with the FP+ I've been better able to avoid that for the most part doing the above.
