How do all of you who travel alone plan do it? Do you plan your days or take them one day at a time? Any help would be appreciated.
How I plan a solo trip to Walt Disney World? Sorta like this ...
1. Buy the UG, and subscribe to TGM.
2. Have all the park maps on hand.
3. Pick your dates and make a room reservation way in advance.
4. Determine the best park to visit for each day using UG and TGM.
5. Make a list of all attractions that you want to be sure not to miss.
6. Plan out a route through each park that takes you to the attractions you listed, using show times, and avoiding backtracking. (I allow plenty of time between attractions on these itineraries, and always end up doing several extra things to take up the time; or I spend some time having a cool drink and people watching. This planning insures that I'll hit all the attractions I want to see without rushing through the parks. I NEVER park hop, and I DO NOT go back to my resort during the day. Both eat up way too much good touring time. I'd rather relax right there in the park.)
7. Finally, note where you will be at meal times, and call 180 days in advance for all needed reservations.
I hope you have a great time. Being solo is really fun, with several advantages you will never have with a group.
