Which Park First?

[Sam2878]

We (family of four, including sons 18/14) are flying to Orlando on Tuesday, Oct 15. We have 3 full days, Wed, Thurs, & Fri plan for US/IOA/ and Sea World. We are staying onsite at PBH. Sat, we plan to drive over to Kennedy Space Center. Fly Home Sun.

My question is which park first? Which days are the parks busy or slow? How much time should I plan for each park? I'm I planning to do to much? Is anything I need to make sure we don't miss? I would like to enjoy the parks and not feel like I'm at a foot race .


Everyone on this board has been so helpful. I have learned alot. Any advice about planning our time would be great.
Thanks Sam

On Wednesday visit IOA arriving to the gate at 08:30am. Even with your magic keys, it's good to be in the park before the crowd arrives. Take a lap around the park, going clockwise, it will be about noon when you are done.
In the afternoon, you go over to USF and do a few movie rides.

On Thursday arrive to SWF at 08:30am. You get into the park ahead of the crowd. Now, JTA and Kraken may not open until 10am. If this is the case, then you go see the sting ray tank and feed the dolphins. It will be 10am, and you'll get walkon rides on JTA and Kraken. Eat an early lunch to avoid the crowds, and see some shows.

Friday, do the same thing for IOA/USF, going on rides you missed.

robvia, I hadn't thought about breaking up the parks or put SW in the middle of the days. I like the idea, thanks for you help. SAM
