MK half day Saturday 22nd October strategies!

[Miss Frankie J]

hello everyone!

I wanted to get some insights on how various people handle the crowds in MK on a Saturday night in October. I have been before on a non MNSSHP night and I remember how crowded it was. We plan on starting in AK and then hopping over midday possibly after a break. we are going to MK during a party and a different day in the am before the party starts so I'm not worried about not being able to do everything that Saturday night.

How do you handle MK in October on a Saturday non party night?

You said mid-October, which leads me to think it's the Saturday of Columbus Day weekend. If so, it'll be a busy time at basically all the parks, including MK. If it's the next Saturday (the 17th), it's also projected to be busy.

If you can't use FPs there, our general approach for MK in the evening is to start with the attractions that usually don't have big waits: Philharmagic, TTA, CoP, etc. After Celebrate The Magic and Wishes many of the wait times for the high-demand attractions start to go down and we hit those at that point.

It is the 22nd which I realize is more mid-late October. I plan on doing standby for AK in the am focusing more on trails since we are there a different day and using fp for MK for the headliners like space mountain.

I guess I'm just curious how people handle being in such congested crowds. Like I can't be on main street for too long otherwise I feel claustrophobic.

I don't have any tips but we will be there too braving the crowds! It's out last day.
