Mk Rd Touring advice

[Mollyemmarose]

We have 2 days in MK planned in april.

The first day park opens at 9am. We were thinking we would do the Mickey M&G and then Tink first. We have FP for PPF 9:10-10:10 so I’m assuming it will be a tight squeeze.

The second day park opens at 8am for EMH and we plan on doing all 4 princesses at PFTH.

My kids are almost 2 & 4, love M&Gs and we ALSO want to see the opening RD show. Since Mickey isn’t past the castle, I’m thinking it doesn’t make sense to watch the show that day? What about the EMH day? Should we do EMH and then come back out to see the show at 8:55? We were going to do other fantasyland rides after princesses if we have time. We have FP for 7DMT, PPF, SplashMTn, BTMR, TOystory, ETWB.
TIA

I think that's what I would do. You'll have to make your way around the castle, and the hub will be pretty full, but being all the way at the hub and backtracking to Mickey doesn't make much sense to me.

But why don't you switch it and do Mickey and Tink on EMH morning then catch the opening show? Then do the princesses on the 9:00 morning.

You would have until 10:25 to get up to PPF to use your FP, so that would be plenty of time to meet both Mickey (do him first) and Tink right at park opening.

I also think you would have no problem going back out to the Hub to see the welcome show on the EMH morning after you do the princesses and a few of the less popular rides. You seem to have FP for the ones that would have the longest waits, so that isn't a concern.

Ok thanks. I might end up switching but the 9am day we have lunch at CRT so I’m trying to spread the princesses through out our trip.
