Wishes or Main Street Electrical Parade FP?

[madelyn]

Planning a March trip and I was able to switch around BOG reservations and now we have tables for dinner at 7:30p on a Wed (a day that is recommended according to Easy WDW). I was able to switch FP + ressies to that same day. We originally got the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Meet Anna & Elsa and the Main Street Electrical Parade. At fist I was worried that we had BOG at 7:30p and had to be at MSEP beginning at 8:30 so I switched to the second MSEP at 10:30. But now I see that there is FP availability for Wishes. Is that preferable to MSEP? We have seen both and aren't the type to arrive early to get great seats. The last time we saw MSEP (week of Thanksgiving 2009) I thought I remember we viewed it from Frontierland and were able to get up close and we just showed up when the parade started. Or is it better use to use that Fast Pass on a different attraction/ride? I know that since we picked that late MSEP, it isn't likely we will get a 4th FP that day.

The FP+ for Wishes is a very relaxing experience. Its very hard to find a nice place to sit down and watch the fireworks.

I pick it every time.

We went in October and had both FP+ for MSEP and Wishes right after our dinner at BOG. MSEP was at 9pm with Wishes at 10pm
We used our FP+ for MSEP at hub in front of Cinderella's castle and then just stayed there for Wishes, never got up, never asked to get up so we had prime view of fireworks too. Not sure if we moved to FP+ area for Wishes it would have been better but we were happy where we were.

Never had better view in all our years
