Please look over my itinerary - newbie

[HDCooper]

Hello. I need help on our itinerary. This is our first time. DD5 DS 24 months. This is what I have so far… We do have park hoppers.

Saturday – we have a late flight and won’t be there until 6:30
Sunday – 12/13(Magic Kingdom) – Cinderella’s Royal Table at 8:10 AM
Monday – 12/14 (EPCOT) – Chef Mickey’s at 5:40
Tuesday – 12/15 (Magic Kingdom) – Akershus @ 5:00
Wednesday – 12/16 (EPCOT) AM – PM Wishes/Spectromagic
Thursday – 12/17 (Animal Kingdom) – Ohanas @ 5:25 (maybe HS in the evening)
Friday – 12/18 (Hollywood Studios) – 1900 Park Fare @ 5:55
Saturday – 12/19 (Magic Kingdom) – Crystal Palace @ 8:05 AM our flight leaves at 2:00

We plan on taking naps from around 1:00 – 3:00/3:30.
I would like to take my daughter to BBB early in the week. Our CRT reservation on Sunday is too early to do it prior. I was thinking about doing it Friday before 1900 PF. I don’t know what time to do it. Also, this would be our last night… I don’t know. Any opinions out there in DIS land?

Thank you

Looks like you are starting the trip off to a great start with MK and CRT!!!

I would recommend doing BBB first thing in the morning because you want the kids to enjoy the specialness of it for the whole day! I have heard those early appointments fill up fast though. Maybe you could do it right after CRT so they have the whole day at MK to enjoy it.

Or do it early on the second day you have MK planned...

Do you have a rental car? I hope so. Getting to the early morning ressies will be hard if not.

Sounds pretty FUN!!!!

How long do you think CRT will take? If my reservations are at 8:10, what time should I do BBB?

Is it hard to get in that early...if you are using the shuttle/bus?

ugg I cannot make up my mind when to do the BBB!!!
She has a Cinderella dress that she wants to wear to CRT. I would love for her to be able to wear that, and get all dressed up...and get her pictures taken with Cinderella on Sunday at CRT. If I do the BBB after CRT, then she won't be able to get her picture taken with Cindy...when she has her hair fixed.

DD has a Belle dress for Akershus ... and she is going to wear her Cinderella dress at 1900 Park Fare. Our reservations for those two are late. Her hair would be a mess by that time, if I did it in the morning.

such decisions... such decisions...

We just got back last week - you will have a blast! After looking over your itinerary you MAY want to consider swapping your parks on Tuesday and Wed. Akershus is in Epcot, and Chef Mickey is in the Contemporary right next to MK. Make sure to plan for enough travel time btw the parks or hotels and where your reservations are - we wound up being fine but it took a lot longer than expected to get some places. I don't think any of the resorts have transportation directly from one hotel to another so it may require you taking more than one bus someplace - just keep that in mind b/c it's something we didn't think of until we were there.
Have a wonderful trip!

My only thought is that I don't see any time for DTD Its a really great place and you should try to get there. Have a great time!!!

Sounds like you will have a great time. The only thing I wouldnt like is the jumping around. But, as I type that I just remembered that you said you will go back to resort for a nap, so I guess it wont be a huge big deal. We go to one park for the WHOLE day and use the late EMH each night. We do not care for hoppers.

One thing I would add or say is...did you check hours? Do you plan to use EMHs? If so make sure you are going to the correct park for the day for the EMHs. Do you plan to go to Fantasmic? It is a must do for us each trip! What about Illuminations, it is also a must for us, it is great! I would also suggest switching the days you eat Chef Mickeys and Akershus.

It all sounds pretty good, Im sure you will have a great trip!
