Post Your Itinerary Here (7-Day Especially)

[kerplop]

*snipped* Do you go rope drop to close? And then rope drop again? DH was not as crazy about Epcot as AK, so I'm trying to convince him we need more time there as you have. We'll see.

We try to rope drop and use EasyWDW's cheat sheets for ideas of where to go when and what to use FP+ on. First time this time with FP+ so we'll see how it goes! We honestly don't always close the parks. We leave when we're tired and when we've felt that we got our full day in. I'm not a huge fan of Epcot and AK myself, honestly and this year we might park hop a little bit to MK because we love it. My gf loves the World Showcase, so I trudge along for that second day and console myself with snacks the whole time

[EagleFlyer]

Here's our current plan for our trip in late January with mostly QS dining:

Fri, Jan 23rd: Arrive around 5pm at ASMu, hang out at the hotel

Sat Jan 24th: Rope drop Epcot and stay until around dinner time

Sun Jan 25th: Rope drop MK and stay through closing to see MSEP and fireworks (although evening entertainment may get pushed back to friday, depending on how the kids are doing)

Mon Jan 26th: HS, the park closes at 6pm and no F! so we're hoping for low crowds and an early return to our hotel

Tues Jan 27th: AK (5pm closing) followed by dinner at Boma for the 2 adults and time at Simba's club house for the 2 kids.

Wed Jan 28th: MK rope drop, stay until we get tired or closing, whichever comes first

Thurs Jan 29th: Epcot, doesn't have to be rope drop. Stay until early evening

Fri Jan 30th: MK, doesn't have to be rope drop. Might be the nightime entertainment night instead of sunday. We'll start our drive home right after leaving the park so ending our trip with MSEP and fireworks might be fun.

I am going in December for 9 days (7 full and then the travel days, I get there at 10:14 am the first day and on the day I go home flight isn't until 7:30 pm so I have a lot of that day so really 9 days to do things)

I use Josh's recommendations for all the parks. All FP+ are in place. Taking another family of 5 who have never been before so some of the plans my change a bit if it's too much. This would be an easy schedule for my crew to stick to. We'll definitely take afternoon breaks to enjoy the resort. Some days we won't even go back to the parks. Can't wait!!!

I based my itinerary by checking out touringplans.com and went with the recommended parks for that day. I also am avoiding morning and evening EMHs at all costs.

3/2 Resort/Pool/Touring Monorail Resorts
3/3 DHS
3/4 Epcot for Flower and Garden Festival

[Ava]

This was how our plans played out last month. 2 adults, 2 girls ages 5 and 16 months.

Sat - arrival at CBR, no park. Dinner & swimming at resort.

Sun - MK day #1: Fantasyland & Tomorrowland. 8:05 ADR @ CRT. (Park closed at 7 for MNSSHP; we decided not to take a break & left ~4pm.)

Mon - EPCOT. 8:10 ADR @ Akershus. FW in the morning, break at hotel after lunch. Back in the evening to finish up FW & have dinner in WS. (We only saw a bit of WS b/c it rained.)

Tues - Animal Kingdom. No break, 5:00pm ADR @ Boma. (It rained off & on all day; we were planning to leave at 4pm for our dinner res anyway, but ended up leaving a bit earlier b/c it started pouring and wasn't letting up.)

Wed - MK day #2: Adventureland, Frontierland, Liberty Square. Rope drop, lunch at Crystal Palace, then break at hotel. Back in the evening for dinner, MSEP & Wishes. The park was supposed to close at 9 but they extended the hours until 10. So after Wishes we went for a Dole Whip & rode Haunted Mansion.

Thurs - DHS. Got a late start but made it in time for the Frozen processional. Lunch @ Mama Melrose. Our TSMM FP was for after lunch, and by the time we got off of that we decided it wasn't worth it to go back to the hotel for a break since we had a 5:30 FP return time for the Frozen sing-along. So we stayed, and the kids still made it through Fantasmic.

Fri - MNSSHP day. 9:30 breakfast at Ohana, then relaxed at resort until party time. Got to MK around 5:00. (We had 5:30-6:30 FP to meet Anna & Elsa.)

Ideally we'd have had our "rest" day in the middle of the week, but because of the party schedule this is what we ended up with. We were all exhausted by the end of the week, but we made it and had a lot of fun! (And I'm glad I didn't book the Tues night party since it ended up raining so much that night!)

[Chubby]

We are going Nov 2015. There's 5 of us, my parents, myself, wife and son age 6. We take mid day breaks (leaving the park around 1pm for a few hour nap). We went for 7 days in 2013 when our son was 4; 2 travel days, 4 park days, 1 off day. We will do approx. 3 character meals. It depends on if we get free dining. Staying at POP if no free dining, upgrading to CBR if we do get free dining (for the midlevel free package). Haven't decided on park hopper or not yet. We like to plan but keep it open enough to be able to move stuff around (weather/ride closures/ADRs etc)

Nov 11 - fly down, epcot
Nov 12 - MK (wife and I are doing Keys to the Kingdom tour while our son spends a half day at resort with grandma and grandpa)
Nov 13 - AK (til 1 if returning, til 3 if not returning), resort/open PM (if not returning to AK)
Nov 14 - Rent car and go to Legoland for the day
Nov 15 - MK & MVMCP
Nov 16 - HS
Nov 17 - Epcot AM, ??? PM (def a park night)
Nov 18 - fly home
