Quick help choosing park day

[tidegirl]

I posted a few days ago for night park advice. I have read the responses and am not ignoring, just had some busy work days. I'm gathering the info to get my final plans in place. I really appreciate all the help.

I need some quick help with choosing which park for which day. Looking at Monday 4/23 and Tues 4/24.

Monday is a high day for MK, good day for DHS Tues is a good day for both parks
Monday MK is open 1 hour later to 11 instead of 10 on Tues
Original plan was DHS Monday and MK Tues

The dilemma- I was able to snag a FP for SDMT on Monday, and with checking through the day yesterday have the time down to 6 pm. Tues I am currently holding a 9:25-10 pm SDMT, but no earlier times are coming up.

So should I change my plans and keep the coveted SDMT on Monday and risk the park being more crowded? With crowd levels of 5 on Monday and 4 on Tuesday, I don't know how much difference it will make. Also, the fact that the better FP was available on Monday makes me think maybe Tues will be a worse day at MK?? What do the experts think?

I can't figure out how they know which parks people will be flocking to on specific days anyway LOL.

I pay zero attention to crowd calendars, so I would keep whatever you have and not pay much mind to them. Having a solid plan for your day, any day, is more important than a projected crowd level.

I tend to agree that I don't change my plans much based on crowd levels. That said, here are touring plans posted levels, just for more info:
4/23 - MK and DHS are both 6/10
4/24 - MK is a 5 and DHS is a 3

Where are these numbers from? It's a little different from the calendar I was looking at, I would like to see what it has to say for the rest of the week.

Nevermind, I found it and see it is a subscription site. The rest of the week we are planning Wed Epcot, Thus AK and Fri repeat MK probably. Does that look like the best plan?

Other than DHS, the rest aren't fluctuating too much for that week, so that's the only one I think that matters a whole lot.

MK - 5 Tu-Th, 6 on M,F
Epcot - 5 - M,Tu, 4 on W-F
DHS - 6 - M, 7 - F, 3 Tu-Th
AK - 6 - M, 5 - Tu-F

That's awesome, thank you!

A good touring plan is more important than the crowd calendar. A FP+ in the hand is worth keeping if it is hard to get. You have heard some good advice here. I could also give you crowd calendars from two different sites but think the first sentence I typed is right on the money.
