Multipass LL for MK party days?

[RLGNC]

I've heard that crowds are MK are relatively low on MNSSHP days. Are they low enough to eliminate the need for Multipass LL?

Thank you.

We were there Tuesday and did not feel the need to have a LLMP. Honestly, we’ve done 3/4 parks (not DHS yet) and have not felt the need for LLMP at any of the parks.

Have you done your DHS day now? How was it without LLMP?
Today is our day to book for our trip starting next weekend. I keep going on this morning to check out the lightning lanes, but I just can’t pull the trigger to buy into this. It seems like a ton of extra money, especially with the Canadian exchange rate, and I’m not sure it’s necessary for early September when we typically don’t wait very long for any ride.
Just looking for real time opinions on how it’s been this past week. How much time is LL really saving?

I spent 10 days at Disney in December. With a strategy and planning I Did every ride I wanted and never once needed a line skipping service be it fastpass, Genie or Multi pass. If use strategy you dont need one.

We have done all 4 parks now without LLMP. We’re here for a longer trip so are taking our days slower.

The one thing to keep in mind while deciding is the heat and humidity. Skipping lines to get away from that would be nice!

For us, do we need it? No. Do I wish we had it sometimes? YES!!

I did treat us to LLMP for our final day and it will be a treat! I purchased it starting at DHS so was $44 for the 2 of us and my CC was charged $66 after exchange!

Our LLMP day is this coming Wed.

Thanks for your response!
We will be there for 14 days , so I think we will also take the slower days approach. When I was playing around with LL for our group of 6, I calculated that into Canadian and decided we could better spend our money on Food and Wine or better yet…. Dole Whips in every flavour!
Hope you’re having a great trip!

I was there on Aug 13 and Aug 16. I did have LLMP, but I don't think I needed it. The morning and early afternoon was low crowds and wait times. However, between 4pm and 6pm the waits really jump. If you are going without LLMP, I would recommend you use this time period to do the rides that typically have a lower wait time. Or, if you do decide to use LLMP, I would suggest you schedule some during this time period. I used up all of mine before this time period...not a good plan. I used them on short wait periods and then didn't have them to avoid longer wait periods.

Good tip! Thank you!

Normally, the only park I've ever felt we needed an LL for was DHS. As a rule, we never buy LLs for anything other than the 1 park. However, this time I bought one for MK as well as we only have 4 park days so the kids won't miss but 1 day of school - there is not the option to go back and do it another day. I wrestled with buying one for DHS this time as I'm doing the after hours party, but we aren't even getting to the park until 5:00 - 5:30. I pretty much got Toy Story land out of the way, head up to Fantasmic, do RnRC (if time allows) then LL for Tot. We can catch RnRC after Fantasmic if we want. I also bought an LL pass for MK on our MNSSHP day but that's to get there later, and get rides done before the party starts so we can concentrate on party fun. For EPCOT, all you need to do is utilize the VQ for Guardians, get there early for early entry (we go in through international gateway) You will walk right into Remy then fast walk to Frozen and you're set. Last year we were off Frozen (having done Remy first) right before they opened the gates for the offsite ticket holders. I also walked into EPCOT another day around 2:40 or so and got a VQ for Guardians, and this was last October. Early entry was 8:30, we got in line around 8:10, and 5 minutes later they let us in. AK you flat out don't need one. If anything, buy an LLSP for Avatar.
Just my 2 cents

ETA: we normally never bought a pass for anything other than DHS but that was during the stacking days. This time I'm a lot more apprehensive. It's just wherever the value is for each person. For us, booking the headliners and skipping those wait times is where our value is. We aren't the type who feel it necessary to skip every single line, especially those with less than a 15 minute wait time.

LL Multi & single pass just started in July, so no one had multipass last December.

I have the same question but for 10/31 which is the last MNSSHP. We will be in MK that day but not going to the party. I know historically 10/31 before the party mix-in isn't that crowded because its not a day off of school for most people, but since LLMP is new and I'd need to decide in advance, I'm unsure what to do.

Having tried to schedule LLs for our party day, I’ll tell you there are a lot less choices as they cut the times off around 5:00ish as they close the park to non party goers at 6:00. Checking the following day, there was a lot more availability for TBA because you can book a few extra hours. I was finally able to modify my TBA on our party day but it took almost 3 days and lots of time refreshing. There seems to be lots of availability for all the other rides, but once again there’s nowhere to go when you have some scheduled. I’d like to get a later HM but have to switch it to 9:00-10:00 time as I have lls for the 11:00 timeframe, lunch, 1:00 SP, 3:00 TBA so that leaves not much time to shift to try to modify.

Yes I worry about this. Since we have a second MK day later in our trip where there are no parties (before the Christmas Parties begin) I may just skip LLMP on the party day and buy it for the second day. Do you remember how bad 7DMT standby was on your party day? Should I buy a LLSP for just that?

This year I bought LLSP for seven dwarfs mine train because we have limited time to be at Disney World and I want to get the rides done before the party starts so we can have party time. We like to do the characters in the shows and the fireworks and parades, etc.. Last year when we went to the party, we did not buy the passes as we normally do not need passes for magic Kingdom. We got to the party around two as we had hopper passes and pretty much rode everything we wanted. The line for seven dwarfs was about 15-20 minutes And once the party started, it went up higher more like 25 to 35 minutes. We were able to get a VQ for Tron at 6 o’clock. I don’t know that they’re doing the VQs anymore beyond the 1 o’clock VQ

Also say looking at the LLMPS for our party day, the only one that everyone is going for is TBA. Everything else has lots of availability. If we were going to get there early in the morning, I would try for the VQ, but we’re not so I don’t want to take a chance on not being able to rid. there are tips on how you can ride with a very low wait time especially if you get in line right around 6 o’clock when they start closing the park to non party guests

We have APs and are in town for a few days. We are going to Magic Kingdom on Tuesday, which is a party day and I decided to forgo multi pass since there are 3 of us. Looking at wait times right now (today is the first MVMCP) the wait times don't look too bad so I'm optimistic we'll be fine. We are fortunate to come down 2-3x a year so I'm hoping to just get 2-3 rides done and enjoy the Christmas decor
