Proof my plans pretty please

SUPER SUPER Excited!!!!! 11 days to go for our very 1st adults only trip plus Food & Wine, can it get any better?! I think not!!!

So let me preface by saying it's just DH & I. His main motivation is food and the thrill rides, which is fine by me. Also, we've been multiple time and will be back for a family vacation end of January, so we want to go at a more relaxed pace but still do our must-do's. For that reason, I hadn't done a ton of planning until the last month or so when I saw crowds have been so heavy, so I quickly filled in our schedule (things in parentheses or not in bold are just ideas I have...not set in stone, just little reminders). Oh I did pick my days by easywdw so hopefully that will help.

Take a look and see what you think? Am I missing anything. Anything sound like it won't work.

One thing I am wondering about is how the FP+ works with EMH, do they have more FP times during EMH. I have never utilized a 4th FP, but def want to give it a try this go round. We are going to do most of the the late evening EMH, will FP's be available? Esp thinking about the MK one night they're open til 11pm-1am -- any FP during that time or just all standbys?

Any and all advice very much appreciated! TIA

Plans look like a lot of fun!!

We used a 4th FP+ on our last trip, and we actually had 6 FP+ in 1 day!

After your third FP+ is used or expires, you can hit a kiosk in the park and obtain a 4th FP+. In one case, we actually obtained a 4th & 5th at the same time at a kiosk, but it didn't happen again, so don't bank on that glitch.

From there on out, you have to use each FP+ before obtaining another at a kiosk. I also was able to book a 4th ONCE through the MyDisneyExperience App, but again, this was a one time shot, where it didn't work again for me.

Hope that helps!! One place I would recommend for dinner is teppen edo in the japanese pavillion! We loved it!

EDIT: For us, TSM was a lot of hype, but you get so tired of pulling those darn strings!! We actually enjoyed Buzz Lightyear in MK more. For that style of "shootem up" ride, we like Men In Black in Universal Studios the best!!!

They don't have FP+ during evening EMH, nor will you need it for most attractions. Enjoy!

Thanks exactly what I needed to know! Hopefully you are right and we won't need it...we haven't done a lot of the evening EMH because of children.

The Evening EMH lines won't be too long for most things, though there are exceptions. Soarin' usually still has a decent wait, as will 7DMT. Remember that non-resort guests might still be in the lines because they got in before the EMH began, so it takes a little time to thin out.

Sounds like fun! One thing - you mentioned getting dessert at one of the booths on Tuesday during EMH at Epcot. If you meant one of the F&W booths, I don't think they're open during EMH. I might be wrong about that and I'm hoping someone will correct if I am. But thought I'd mention it so you don't have your heart set on something that might not be available!

Oh ok, I hadn't even thought about that, but I bet you're right.

Yeah, the booths will close before the EMH starts. Actually, a lot of food outlets, even the permanent ones will close. Some don't ever keep full park hours. EMH options will be limited.
