Which parks would you pick?

[Ericalee]

Help me!

We have 3 park days, 9/21 through 9/23. We want to attend 1 day MK, 1 day AK, and 1 day DHS. Looking at crowd predictors, EMH, and any other variables you consider...which days would you pick for which parks? We are not doing mickeys party.

I keep changing my mind! DH doesn't care either way. Give me your ideas and rationale. TIA!

Will you have kids with you? Will you be staying on property?

I can't imagine skipping Epcot, but my family does not like Animal Kingdom. We spend half a day there every trip, but aside from a few things, it's just not for us, so we don't waste a whole day there. That being said, there are obviously people who absolutely love it. But if it was me, I would definitely do a party, do a morning at AK or HS and then the party at MK (you can get in at 4:00), then do Epcot for a day and HS (if AK was chosen for the party day) or MK for a full day.

I would do MK on the Wed, or the Thursday. The other parks I would do the other days.

Wednesday In magic Kingdom is less crowded

Wednesday should be more crowded at Magic Kingdom because evening EMH are scheduled that night. However, I do prefer to start my vacation at Magic Kingdom and it can be nice to have the extra time at night especially if you don't have young kids. What is most important to you?

For more time in parks using the evening EMH: I would go Wed. Magic Kingdom, Thurs. Animal Kingdom, Fri. Hollywood Studios

For lower crowds, avoid EMH: Go on Wed. Hollywood Studios, Thurs. Magic Kingdom, Fri. Animal Kingdom

OR I would consider Wed. Magic Kingdom (because it's my fav.), Thurs. Hollywood Studios (lower crowds), Fri. Animal Kingdom (lower crowds)

We have a 3 and 5 yr old, definitely skipping Epcot. I've been thinking MK first for the Wow factor. But also have seen Wed will be busiest day. But Wed seems like least crowded overall day (around a 2)...so if overall crowd level is low, would Wed MK be not so bad?

ETA: staying at AoA
