Need help planning!!! When do we go where?

[DHades]

We are returning to "The World" after a 2 year absence...we leave on Nov 4 and staying for 10 days...we have a 4 day Hopper for WDW, a pass to Sea World and 2 days in Universal (and a few days to relax in between)...but when are the best days to go? How crowded does the park get in early November? Will the F&W festival make things difficult? What about this Soap Opera weekend thing?

Sorry for all of the questions...It will be myself, DW and 3 small kids (6 and 4 - twins)...plus Mom to help. But we want to see as much as we can and try to avoid the most crowded parks when possible.

Any advise would be great and appreciated!!! But in the words of a few mortals..."HELP!!!"

Thanks!!!

Welcome to the Dis,a general rule is avoid MK on Saturday and Monday's.F&W does increase traffic at Epcot and more so so on wekeekends when many locals will come out.So I would try to go to Epcot one day Monday through Thursday.I think Soap Opera thing would increase crowds at MGM but not effect the other parks to much.Crowds are up some this year but I think you are going at great time and should not encounter any huge crowds.Use fast pass and arrive early and you will get see and do about everything you would like to do.Have a magical and safe trip.

Check tourgingplans.com for the Best Days guide! We will be there November 5-10, so I pretty much have the Best Days memorized for the beginning of November! Many people on these boards suggest skipping evening EMH. Many have reported heavy crowds. Also, unless it is an interest of yours, I would avoid MGM the weekend of November 12-13 due to heavy crowds for the Super Soaps weekend.

Have a magical trip!
