Short Trip Right Before Christmas

[MickeyRules]

If you were going to be at Disney with your family of 4 (2 grown kids), arriving at MCO shortly after midnight on 12/20 and departing on 12/24, would you rather...

Get a 2-day pass with PH and do parks on 12/22 and 12/23 OR
Get a 3-day base pass and do parks on 12/21 (starting around 10 am), 12/22 and 12/23?

I just can't decide!
Thanks for any help/input.

I’d want three days. So much to see/do around the holidays, I’d want to try to hit as many parks as I can.

I’d want to go to MK for the holiday fireworks and parade that will be running that week.

Epcot for the Candelight Processional (if so inclined) and holiday tag ending to the new show (I’m assuming for the sake of argument there will be a holiday tag, but TBD).

DHS for Jingle Bell Jingle Bam and the show (blanking on the name at the moment) on Sunset Boulevard.

Scrape together some extra dough and make it a 3 day PH. You will be glad you did. Crowds will be high and the Christmas atmosphere will be in full swing. You have 4 months to save up!

3 day non hopper. You don’t need to hop really unless you want ADRs and FPS in different parks on the same day.

I woudl want a three day pass. On a short trip I never buy hoppers becuase I think that traveling between parks is a time drain, but others find them helpful. I think it will be busy so I would pick one park per day and stay there.
