MK touring advice - first time visit!

[MJ6987]

Hi,
I am putting together a 2 day touring plan for MK for me, my wife and 2 girls (6 and 10) going there first time in Feb 09. The 1st day in MK is rated as a "7 out of 10" on the Unofficial Guide crowd calendar. I like fast rides whereas the others don't and are very girly! So, this was my plan for the first couple of hours...

At opening time I go straight to Space Mountain followed by Buzz Lightyear then head to meet others in Fantasyland (at Pooh's Playful spot)

Wife and girls meanwhile (at opening) go straight for Dumbo followed by Cinderella's Golden car. They then get FP for Winnie the Pooh then start queuing for Ariel's grotto which opens for business at 10am. After seeing Ariel they come to Pooh's playful spot to meet me.

We all go on Winnie the Pooh (using FP obtained) then onto Peter Pan (using FP if wait is too long) then onto Philarmagic, and so on.

Anyone see any problems with this (given that we've never been before), e.g. do the timings look roughly right to meet up at Pooh's Playful Spot, or will one of us be there way before the other?

Cheers,
Matthew

The plan looks good.

There are a dozen or more other ways to arrange those (and more) rides, but any plan will go better or worse depending of the other +/-20,000 guest's plans operating at the same time as yours.

Just go and have a great time enjoying the whole experience!


BTW, "Dumbo first, after rope-drop" is one of the most-reliable (and most-used) of all MK "plans."

to the DISboards, Matthew!

I believe you'll be finished well before they are.........you may be able to slip in another attraction. I assume you're going to be there at rope drop? Be certain to grab that first set of fastpasses immediately so your next window opens at 10 AM. You'll have a great time!!

Thanks for the advice!!

Get the fastpass for Peter Pan before you go on Pooh. You should be able to get another pass shortly after the first one can be used. This will cut down on your time that you have to wait before going on Peter Pan and before you can get another fastpass.

Don't forget to hand your wife your park ticket before you head off to Tomorrowland. She'll need everybody's tickets in order to get fast passes for everyone.
