Trip Planning Advice Needed - Early June 2023 - Two day Park Hopper Tickets

[notatallmagic]

I need advice - we have a trip planned for a Monday-Thursday in early June. Due to flight arrival/departure, I was planning park days for Tuesday and Wednesday, with relaxing/Disney Springs on Monday/Thursday. The question is park strategy.

Originally, I was thinking Hollywood to Epcot on Tuesday (we are staying at Pop for the first two nights); then Animal and Magic Kingdom on Wednesday (we are staying at Wilderness Lodge on Wednesday,) hoping to utilize the Extra Evening hours at Magic Kingdom on Wednesday night.

So, what are your thoughts? I feel pretty good about getting done what we need at Hollywood prior to hopping at 2pm; but we wouldn't be able to get a time for Guardians at Epcot with that strategy. So should we change and do Epcot to Hollywood then back to Epcot (pretty sure Epcot is open later - I don't see park hours yet for June - and we can easily Skyliner between resorts unless it's storming)?

If we start at Animal, I know we can get everything done there before 2pm; then hop to Magic and do Evening Hours (if they have them that Wednesday). I read that they offer a 6pm virtual queue for those hours, so we could still potentially get on Tron with that strategy.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

I think your strategy is sound given that you can do Extended Hours at MK. Remember, after you enter EPCOT at 2pm, you can try for a time for Guardians at that point. There is often still availability from the 1pm VQ scheduling time. Best of luck!

Thank you - that's good to know! I figured we wouldn't have a chance entering at 2pm, but that helps so much!

We’re going to be there the same time as you.

My suggestion is to ask yourself what is more important for you to see at night. My DD and I love Fantasmic, so we would do EPCOT first and then go to HS.

Have a great trip
