Suggestions for our last day

[Kay2397]

Our flights just changed for our Spring Break Trip. Instead of leaving at 7am from AKL, we will be leaving around 3pm to catch our 6pm flight. We know we want to sleep in that morning bc our flights won't be getting in until after midnight Easter morning. What should we do with our extra time?

I was thinking of a nice sit down lunch before we go but we already have the following ADRs booked:
Boma
Beaches and Cream
Restaurant Maarakesh
Garden Grove
O'hana
CRT
chef Mickeys (I would love to move this to our final day but I can't snag a new reservation)
Yak n Yeti
Any suggestions for us? We are a family of 4 with two girls 4 and 7.

Maybe Whispering Canyon Cafe or Kona Cafe for lunch....but I would suggest you keep trying for that Chef Mickey's ADR. For our December trip I finally snagged Chef Mickey's a couple of weeks out- and even saw some available a few days out. You never know!
As far as something to do.... mini golf or a surrey bike ride might be fun.

I decided to look again tonight and voila! I found a chef Mickeys reservation for 11:50!

Sanaa Bread Service for lunch. So much fun! Get one last look at the animals

That's great! Just make sure to allow yourself plenty of time to get from the Contemporary back to AKL. They aren't exactly close together and you don't want to miss the Magical Express.

Our flight leaves MCO at 6, so Magical express should schedule us for 3pm right? I was thinking that even if lunch takes us 2 hours, we should still have an hour to get back to AKL...do you think I need to look for an earlier time?

When we had a late Chef Mickey reservation it was fantastic because there were less and less tables of guests and the characters continued to walk around and around, eventually giving us 100% of their attention. If I remember correctly, the characters all went away at 1pm. This was several years ago and things most definitely could have changed but if it remains I personally think you will be fine. We are beginning our last day at Chef Mickey too!

You'll probably be done in closer to 1 hour than 2 so I think you will be fine. You could also just check every now and then and if something a little earlier opens up you can switch. I wouldn't stress about it too much! Enjoy!

Thanks! I think it will be a great way to end our trip.
