If you had to exclude 1 of the 4 Disney Parks which one and why?

One full day at MK
One full day at MGM
Morning at AK
Evening at Epcot, but early enough to do Future World, skip World Showcase. Stay for Illuminations.

My family could skip Epcot, no problem. In fact, I may have to blindfold my kids and lie to them about which bus we're on if I ever want to go back there again. They hated it! Too much "looking at stuff" and not enough action.
Give us MK, AK, and MGM anyday.

Definitely skip AK. You can see more animals at the St. Louis Zoo, and it won't be as hot. We had three day park hopper passes, so we spent mornings at MK and headed out in the afternoons. You can return one evening for fireworks.

We loved MGM. Plan on a whole day or two half days. There's lots of good shows and our two favorite rides: Tower of Terror and RocknRoller Coaster. Fantasmic is a must see, but bring ear plugs for little ones who don't like loud noises.

Epcot is a great park. We liked the relaxing atmosphere of World Showcase. There's lots of little hidden attractions there. You might want to read up on it in a book or this board. Future World has a lot of nice indoor shows/attractions. It's great for hot weather or rain.

Have fun!!

Take the tickets quite literally - go park hopping. We have done all 4 parks in only 3 days. I wouldn't skip one park, they all have something special about them. I didn't think that I was going to love AK but do. Best advice hit parks when they open and do half days (I have personal experience with this and love to do split my days in half between two parks).

My personal opinion would be to hit AK when it opens and be out of the park by 2:00. You can easily do the Kil. Safari, KRR, Flights of Wonder, Tough to be a bug, Dinosaur and Lion King by timing everything just right. Go back to your hotel and rest for at least 2 hours then head out for the rest of the night to Epcot (which is always open late) and stay until Illuminations has ended around 9:30 p.m. Next day go to MK and if you choose go to Epcot again afterwards. Then last day go to MGM and stay and enjoy Fantasmic. If time permits you can go back to Epcot and maybe ride TT or MS at least once. Best thing is to have a list of must do rides for each park and hit that park earliest. As Epcot is open late it is easy to go in and ride your favorite rides from 6-9 at night.

MGM/Disney Studios because its pretty boring. Aside from Tower of Terror and Rock & Roller Coaster, I can see the "Universal Tour" in Hollywood and see it done better. The shows are sub-par talent wise and I can always do Star Tours at Disneyland. Yawn.

If you absolutely have to not do one park, I would say skip AK. But, I agree with everyone who says to go there in the morning, even if it's just for 3-4 hours and then go to another park. The Safari ride is fun and best to do in the morning. The one thing I noticed about AK that I think makes it not as enjoyable is that the walkways are more narrow than in the other parks. At least it seemed that way. I felt like we didn't have as much space to walk in as the other parks. Since it's smaller, I think they've tried to put a lot in and tightened the areas where the 'humans' are. The animals need the room to roam, so they gave them all the space!
