Maybe a dumb question?

How many nights do you stay stay if you are planning a 3 day hopper ticket? Do you plan on resting the day you get in and hit the parks the next morning? How about the last day? Do you leave the day after your last day in the parks?

I would probably want to use the tickets for a full day- stay as long as you can possibly afford b/c there is a lot to do at WDW.

I decide that based on when I'll actually be arriving at the resort. If I won't get in until noon or later I don't go to the parks that day. If I'm getting in early (like this trip we arrive at 9:30am) I will go to the parks. Same thing for the last day.

We always use the first day to explore the resort then head over to DTD. Get a good nights sleep and be at the parks when they open.

we've never gone to a park on the day we arrive, never get there early enough to make it worth using a day on the pass. So, since we stay someplace new on each trip, we just hang out at the hotel and explore it. The last day sort of depends on when we are leaving. If the plane is after 6 we may go to the parks, but even with a fairly late plane, you need to be at the airport so early, even that now becomes hard to do

The difference of the price of the park hopper tickets is so small per day once you buy them anyway, we always spend the extra couple of dollars and even though we get in in the early evening always spend some time at a park the night we arrive.

We are going for 10 nights 11 days buying a 7 day hopper magic plus thingy we get 5 bonus visits to the water parks we get there at 12 30 pm on the 3rd and I plan on wasting one of the water park visits that day as there is no way we will use up all 5 with going to the parks for 7 days plus universal

We always spend our first day relaxing at our resort, going swimming, checking out the gift shops, restaurants, etc.


Then get up bright and early and....park-hop commando style!


Our last day we always go to DTD, shop and have dinner at RFC.


Then the crying begins...
