WWYD?

We have ADRs at Crystal Palace for 8 am (park opens at 8) on Nov 23 and Ohanas at 5:05. We are eating at Ohanas earlier in the week but with the park opening at 8 I'm not sure about Crystal Palace.
My original plan was do both then I changed my mind and wanted just Crystal Palace. I keep wavering.
Then on the 24 I had originally booked 1900 Park Fare at 5. Well I forgot about doing a Fantasmic meal and called the other day and the only time I could get our whole trip was 1:30 on the 24 at Mama Melrose. We have never seen Fantasmic. Now I have to decide what to keep. I want to finalize my plans for our trip so WWYD?

I'm hesitant to say "yes" to Crystal Palace since your ressie is at RD. I'd keep it only if you aren't planning to use the morning in the park. Either that or you're alright with having longer wait times. Crystal Palace looks like a lot of fun otherwise!

I wouldn't keep both ressie on the 24th since they're so close together.
If the seating for Fantasmic is important to you, I'd keep the package.

Personally, I wouldn't do an 8am ADR with an 8am open. I would prefer to use that time for park touring.

Your option for the 24th are harder because both MM and 1900 FP are great! I'd consider which is more important: the characters at PF or the tickets at MM. Remember you can always get FPs for Fantasmic, if you end up choosing PF.

See if you can get Crystal Palace around 10 am. You can hit a bunch of rides right at park open, and then eat a great breakfast.

I would not keep CP on a RD day unless you really do nto care if you hit a lot of attractions in the morning, While you are eating lines will be forming. I woudl be fine with that, but not everyone is.

I like 1900 PF, but if you want a fantasmic dining package, drop it and book MM> it is one of our favorite restaurants. I really like the oak fired steak. Not a fan of that silly dessert trio that comes with the package, but I do like the calamari. WHich always beats dessert, even for me. If you have not seen Fantasmic, I would choose the show over any buffet dinner, even one with the Tremaine Family. I always book my Fantasmic meal at MM and book lunch. I find that it is a lovely break in the middle of the day.

Now, with all that said, if you prefer the Tremaine Family and still want to see fantasmic, you can do as was suggested above thread, book a FP for the show, and beat feet over there after dinner.
