Review my ADRS and Fantasmic Advice

[tulipgrl7]

Right now we are doing it oop, because using the calculator we are 15-20 either direction depending on whether or not we do 2 ts at HS. We have a 3 and 5 year old who except for the ones were we have to pay for each of them could very likely split meals with each other and us.

Day 1- Arrival Chef Mickeys for Dinner. We are not going to any parks this day and we are staying at AKL. My DH has visions of completely surprising the kids when we get there. We were considering HDDR, but didn't want to pay that much upfront.

Epcot- 8 am Askerhus, 4 pm Via Napoli

Magic Kingdom- 8 am CRT (yes I know we have two princess breakfasts back to back- we couldn't decide and have never done either of them and have an almost 4 year old who wants to be a princess every day ) then BOG for dinner.

AK- Tusker house for breakfast, then yak and yeti for a late lunch.

Rest day- stay at the resort and have Boma for dinner.

Magic Kingdom day 2- I have LTT booked for dinner, but I am wondering if I want to cancel it and just do counter service that day. We have never done LTT. We have done CP and Tony's previously. Or if I want to do BOG again lol!

HS- I have a lunch at sci-fi thinking the kids might get a kick out of it and I have fantasmic package booked at HBD. Is it worth it? On the basis of the food and the preferred seating. I am confused if the preferred seating is in the middle or off to the right. I have seen two different maps. Also, contemplating a breakfast at H&V and cancelling sci-fi. My kids are very much into disney jr right now, but last time we went DS was very into Jake but didn't like his huge head at the meet and greet so I am not sure they would like H&V.

The only duplicates for us in this plan is Chef Mickeys and Tusker house (which was my dh's fav last time)

We did a Fantasmic package in Sept 2010. We found that the general admission seats were better at that time. The F! section was off to the side.
Good news: We just returned from Disney a couple weeks ago, and they have changed their policy. The F! is smack dab center! Awesome seats. And we walked up 10 minutes before show time.

Also wanted to comment on HDDR. We did it this past trip, and the whole family loved it! I like to try and repeat my favorites (OHana, BOG), and try a couple new places each trip. Chef Mickeys is always good too though.
