This is really long....but I need help! Sorry!
I am planning our first trip to Disney for myself, my husband and our daughters age 6 & 9. Next week we have to pick fast passes and I’m also trying to confirm/change dining reservations. I need to figure out if we should keep our 6 day park hopper passes or make changes and decide what to do on our arrival and departure days. We will be at Disney the first week of May and will be coming off a 7 night Caribbean cruise and currently have the Disney dining plan. My girls are pretty good eaters but will most likely stick to the usual go to kid favorites and they will do most rides but not the big thrill ones. If you have a few minutes to read this over and offer suggestions I’d really appreciate it!
Day 1 - Sunday
Arrive at Art of Animation by 11:00am
Dinner reservations at 1900 Park Fare at 5:30pm
*Which park should we go to? Or should we go to Disney Springs or stay at the resort? If we’re going to a park which rides should we try to get fast passes for?
Day 2 - Monday
Hollywood Studios
Dinner reservations at Sci-Fi at 4:30pm
*Fast pass suggestions? Any tips for this park? Quick serve suggestions for lunch or snacks?
Day 3 - Tuesday
Magic Kingdom
Breakfast reservations at Be Our Guest at 8:10am
Dinner reservations at Crystal Palace at 5:55pm
*Fast pass suggestions? Any tips for this park? Quick serve suggestions for lunch or snacks?
Day 4 - Wednesday
Epcot
Lunch reservations at Akershus at 12:05pm
*I’m not sure if we will be here the full day. I assume we’ll start at park opening and be finished by 3. Wondering if we should keep park hopper and go somewhere else this afternoon? Also what fast passes we should try to get.
Day 5 - Thursday
Magic Kingdom
Breakfast reservations at Be Our Guest at 8:05am
*Fast pass suggestions? Quick serve suggestions for lunch & dinner?
Day 6 - Friday
Animal Kingdom
Breakfast reservations at Tusker House at 8:15am
Dinner reservations at Sanaa at 5:00pm
*I’d really like to try Flame Tree for lunch. But we really want to get to Sanaa too. I think maybe we’ll get a late lunch plate or two that we can share and then have the bread service and something light at Sanaa. I could pay out of pocket for Sanaa and then have the table serve credits left for Ohana. I’m also looking for fast pass suggestions.
Day 7 - Saturday
Breakfast reservations at Ohana at 7:30am
Flight leaves at 2:00pm
*Do we have enough time to have breakfast here on departure day? Someone mentioned that with our flight leaving at 2pm that we will be picked up by the Magical Express by 10am. We will get a taxi back to AOA after breakfast but are we cutting it too close with a character meal on this morning?
