OK, this is our 2nd trip to WDW, the first trip, we missed EE, cause there was none, there was no E-Ride night, right after 9-11, we missed fireworks at MK, we missed Fantasmic @ Epcot, not sure why, but this time we are hitting everything:) Hopefully:)

When do we need to arrive at the EE park in time to use EE?
When do we need to buy E-Ride night tickets?
Where is a good spot to view fireworks @ MK?
What time do they start? Should we get E-Ride tickets for that night?

We already have our Fantasmic Dinner PKG reserved, so that is a done deal, hopefully?

We want to go to EE for each park, should we plan on leaving that park after EE is done & switch parks? I have heard that EE parks are usually more crowded on a EE day, is this true?

I am sure there are more questions floating around in this head, but this is all I can think of right not. Thanks for the help in advance!

I can anwser your number 2 and 3 questions. When there is a e-ride night, i Usually buy them that morning. You can buy them at any (i think) disney hotel on site. A good spot for fireworks, i recommend two places. First, mickey's toontown, this is the closet spot to the fireworks. The other I usually watch is near the caribbean plaza, near that McDonald's fry cart stand, its a clear view of the fireworks there.
 
EE days are more crowded than normal, you may only do this if you are staying onsite. It used to be that if you were off site they would let you in, now they check. You don't really gain anything from this unless you are tight for time on your trip.

Buy your tickets for e-ride night any time that day at either your hotel or at the town hall. e-ride is especially good if you know you like the rides offered and the parks are crowded during the day.

Fireworks are best seen from Ariels grotto, however if you want to see tinkerbell fly you must be more toward the castle front. An OK spot is at the California Grill ontop of the Contemporary hotel, they dim the lights and play the music inside.

Hope this helps.
 
E night tickets can be purchased at check-in and any time up until that night. They are limited in number and someone recently reported a sellout night. I usually buy mine at check-in if I am sure we are going, it saves the time of going back.

Enjoy
 

Angie,

You didn't say when your trip is scheduled for. For E-ride nights, we usually check the weather forecast after check-in then buy the tickets for the night/s we want to attend. The one time we didn't check the weather report it rained on and off all night.

I agree with the others about E night. We have always found that EE days are busier days. We usually go to the EE park then switch to a less crowded park around noon.
