We are doing a MerryTime Cruise in Nov 2019. Our cruise lands in Miami on a Wednesday. We will be driving to Orlando afterwards for Disney World. Thursday would be our only full park day before flying home from Orlando on Friday. Based on prior schedules there is a solid chance of a MVMCP on that Thursday.
Assuming there is party that Thursday what would you do? I'm leaning towards the party because of reduced crowds at MK. Since it would be our only MK visit for about 18-24 months, we could get real bang for our bucks vs normal park hours.
I do have a relative cast member so the potential of free single day park hoppers is an option too. I have thought about starting at MK and park hopping to Epcot later in the day too. We will have a six year old in tow with a current bedtime of 8pm but should be able to hang ok till 11pm based on past experiences.
My main question is: How do the festivities on the cruise compare to the MK party? I hear Christmas character M&Gs are a big draw at MVMCP, would we get our fill of that on the ship?
We are Disney World vets with multiple trips under belts so it would be about enjoying MK decorated for Christmas for the first time and getting some favorite rides in. It would be cool to get a picture with all seven dwarfs but I wouldn't spend two hours of MVMCP time waiting for that.
Thoughts???
