Is this timing doable?

5:20 ADR Chef Mickeys
6:40-7:40 FP+ Anna and Elsa
7:40-8:05 FP+ MSEP

Group of 6 adults, 3 kids in strollers. Plan on checking in by 5 pm at CM when they first start seating for dinner.
 
You'll be lucky to get seated on time at Chef Mickey. I think we had to wait a half hour before getting seated, and then another 20 minutes to see our server. Plus- I don't think that checking in early gives you any benefit. They won't see you till your time. It was a good 2 hours there for us. But if you book it FAST to the MK then you may make it to A&E by the end of your fastpass window.

With 3 kids at a character dinner, I think it might be cutting it a bit close to your FP. In our experience at Chef Mickey's ( 1 child) the characters have come fairly quick, but, if you don't care about that, you could probably pull it off. Maybe try to be out by 6:20? Good luck! :)
 
I think its doable...you have all the way until 7:40 to check in for your first FP. Obviously, if it's too close to that time you will be close to the end for your second one...but they do give you some grace period. We checked in 10 mins. late for a FP in June and the CM let us in.
 

I think you'll be fine. You'll be among the first dinner seatings at CM, so you shouldn't have a long wait. I would aim to be done at CM by about 6:30 and then walk back to MK to avoid any monorail delays.
 
I think it may be doable but pretty tight. It will also depend on what night you are going, how the long the bag check lines at MK are, etc. so many variables. It could work.
 
It could work...but be prepared to run from one place to the next. Literally.
 
I think you might be able to sprint from CM's to A&E, hope the monorail is pulling up as you get there, etc.
 
Only issue would be how many other large parties had a reservation ahead of you. We have got to CM early when they opened and still waited until after our reservation window with a large party but I will keep my fingers cross for you :) But at least you have that hour window for the FP+ so you can get in, worse case you miss your MSEP one or get there at the very end of that window too.
 
I think it's doable. It will all come down to how quickly you get seated at CM. I think you have a good chance of not having much of a wait since you're one of the first dinner spot times.

I would walk from CR back to MK. When I'm in a hurry, I hate having to rely on something I have no control over. If you just miss a monorail or there is any delay there, you're stuck standing. With walking, you can choose to pick up the pace to make it go faster.
