Which Days for MK and Epcot?

[TinkOhio]

Looking for sage advice from the friendly folks on these boards. We’ll be visiting WDW from Dec. 13-18 and have 4 day hopper tickets. We would like to see each park at least once, and are thinking of not doing a park on our arrival day, the 13th, (although we will be arriving early.) On which days would you reserve each park, and why? MK has the Christmas party on the 14th, 16Th, and 17th. Best to go on one of those days and miss out on a later stay, or go on the 15th? We haven’t bought party tickets and weren’t planning on them. We aren’t staying at a deluxe, and I’m guessing the park will be very crowded on the 15th.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Looking at those dates - I would stick with MK on the 14th since you are not wanting to attend the christmas party you just lose an hour. No big deal. Projected to be a better day to go that week. Then I would do HS on the 15th, Epcot on the 16th, and AK on the 17th.

Touring plans have those dates, on a scale of 1-10 crowd projections as - MK 3, HS 5, EP 5, and AK 5. They are sometimes off by 1 so their projections are close. That is just me though.
