With waits that are hours long and fast pass system either not working or no passes available, what do you do to enjoy the parks?
What do your teenagers do to enjoy the parks?
Hubby and I can do ok with people watching, but the teens aren't so happy.
Is MDE down again? Or is it just that busy, FPs are hard to come by?
It was not down today. It was th at busy. The only additional pass we could get was Muppets.
Sorry, spending thousands of dollars for Christmas week just seems like such a waste of money. Paying top dollar to be in the parks and not being able to go on rides is just ridiculous.

Momz, I feel for you. For what it's worth outside of HS and Pandora, waits can be long but not so terrible. Definitely find a sanctuary mid day especially for the next two days. I personally find the parks more entertaining watching the mid-day madness with a libation in hand.
What parks are you headed to today and tomorrow??
Good luck, try to enjoy yourself.
I would rope drop to make sure I got a few rides in before it was too crowded. I would use my 3 FP late morning or early. After that, if FPs can’t be found even with persistent refreshing and modifying, I’d do other things with the teens. My son has enjoyed:
Golf
Mini golf
Splitsville
Movies
The Void
Today at Animal Kingdom make sure you do the nature trails. They are beautiful. The shops at AK are wonderful for perusing and there is plenty of street entertainment. At Epcot tomorrow, try the game at the end of Mission Space. My teens love playing! Also try Agent P's Adventure game. I know it's marketed towards the younger crowd but it's a lot of fun and gets you to see some areas in World Showcase you might otherwise miss. Take your time in each country! I have never been to the parks during this time of year but I hope these ideas help!Today is Animal Kingdom. Tomorrow Epcot.
I am sorry, and I mean no disrespect. I understand that everyone has their own opinions and likes and dislikes but...... I do not go to WDW to go golfing, go bowling, go to a movie. These are all things i can do at home and save lots of money. As others have said just immersing yourself into the various parks is well worth the trip. Again just my opinion.
