We're going Sept 29th - our arrival day. Flying in from Chicago in the morning, landing at MCO around 11 then DME to the resort. We're planning on heading to the park around 4ish.

Quick question on making sure our party ticket is used and not one of our regular days - from memory there are separate entrance gates for the party? That should mean when we scan our bands it will activate the party tocket? We're international so don't think we will get a hard ticket (and didn't get one when we went in 2017)

Yes, there's separately marked event entrances for the party. As long as you enter through one of those tapstyles, it will use your party ticket.

I'm still debating on going, if I do it will be on Sept 16th. It will depend on my friend. She is going with her boyfriend and wants to do Halloween Horror Nights but her boyfriend doesn't like that stuff so if we don't do that then I will do MNSSHP. They are staying in the same resort as me but we are only doing breakfast together as her boyfriend wants it to be romantic so he's relegated us to breakfast only, lol. I understand though. I am going solo and this will be the first time I do the party solo and am hoping it will be fun still. I should know soon though and will be purchasing my ticket after my April trip if I do go.

We never purchase memory maker. Will the CM's / photpass photographers still take our pictures with our phones if we ask nicely? We don't get a lot of pictures with characters unless we're at a character meal - but we might line up for a couple of photo ops at the halloween party. Normally we'd rather go on rides than line up for pictures. TIA

They have for us in the past. I don't see why they wouldn't.

Yes they’ll always take photos with your phone or camera also! We have MM with our APs but I usually ask for them on my phone also just in case!

They do some pretty cool magic shots for the party though. You might consider the one day MM if that interests you

I did the party solo last year. I had a blast!

We only stay at WL and wear our costumes when dining prior to the party. If this is your plan, I recommend making an ADR between 2:30-2:45. Allow at least 45 minutes from start to finish.
2:45-3:30 - Whisper Canyon
3:30-4:00 - Boat Doc
4:00-4:30 - Party Entrance

To get from Wilderness Lodge to Magic Kingdom: take the bus, not the boat. Shorter ride, more frequent arrivals.

I'd go with 2pm. I am paranoid about Disney transport after a few dicey situations.

We only stay at WL and wear our costumes when dining prior to the party. If this is your plan, I recommend making an ADR between 2:30-2:45. Allow at least 45 minutes from start to finish.
2:45-3:30 - Whisper Canyon
3:30-4:00 - Boat Doc
4:00-4:30 - Party Entrance

I'm more conservative:
2:00-3:00 - Whisper Canyon
3:00-3:20 - Boat Doc
3:45-4:00 - Party Entrance

I feel like any TS takes around an hour from start to paid check. And while the boat may only take 20 minutes to get to the front of MK, you don't know how long it will take to get a boat.

@Mrspeaks also note watercraft transportation is not operational during inclement weather.

Is there where I get to brag about Florida's every day like clockwork afternoon thunderstorm? Best part of growing up in Florida is the daily lightening shows. Should hit around 3 or 4pm depending on Daylight Savings Time.

We are doing the party on Oct 1st. Have they announced whether DVC members would be able to enter at 2 PM like last year? Planning out our park tickets for our niece that is coming with us on this trip.

Are the line ups for the magic shots long?

I went to the first party and the lines were not long for the magic shots that I did.
