In their defense, the crowd calendars did say that MK would be the busiest park, but they predicted a 6 and then this morning said it was actually a 9. They were pretty on spot with the rest of their predictions, but MK was pretty far off.

First timer here - we just arrived yesterday. We went to magic kingdom for a few hours last night and were blown away by the crowds. Anyone have theories on why a Wednesday in October would have crowds of a 9/10? Is that all from people traveling here because of the hurricane? We still had a...

You are right - I think I just decided a nice dinner out for mom and dad might be a better use of our last two TS credits. We will get the kiddos QS pizza somewhere else. Thanks for your help!

I am trying to decide whether it is worth it for us to get the DDP. My family of six plans to eat at Sanaa and will likely get the bread service and then split three meals. Do you think they will allow us to split dishes like that using the dining plan? I know it has been allowed in the past...

Hello. Thanks so much for the maps! It helps so much for planning for those of us who are first timers. However, I am still confused about where the handicapped viewing areas are. We are ok with having to claim our space even two hours ahead of fireworks, but we certainly don’t want to stake out...

Thank you! This is super helpful. I appreciate it.

Gotcha. Yeah, I think I am finally accepting that real world parade etiquette doesn’t apply to MK. We will stick with the railing/rope plan.

Sorry - I meant one flat sheet total for all six of us. I like that idea! So you go in the building and just find a balcony to hang out at? How early? Thanks! I hadn’t really considered Main Street as much. Can you see the projections well from that distance? I think railing/edges will be...

I am travelling during the Halloween party season with my husband and four daughters, who range in age from 5 to 17. We are all Disney first timers. The only thing my husband has said he wants to do is see the HEA fireworks show so I really want to make that happen, but a dessert party for six...

That’s actually really helpful. I was just looking for a ballpark anyway. Thanks so much!

How long are the waits typically at Epcot? My daughter is hoping to meet Belle in France and Jasmine in Morocco in particular.

The DIS podcast has an excellent interview with a rep from Touring Plans (I believe from April). He describes in quite a bit of detail how they get their numbers. I don't know how other sources get their info but I doubt anyone has them beat as far as the number of variables they consider and...

Excellent. Thanks!

That’s what I was hoping someone would say! It made me nervous because many of the other more traditional meet and greets (like the princesses at Epcot) seem to be posted further out. I will keep my fingers crossed that his hours are posted later. Thanks!

I was hoping my family could meet Chewbacca in October but there is nothing on his schedule after mid September. Do they just not list it that far out or is it likely he will no longer be there in mid October?

That’s great news! Thanks.

Were the QS restaurants generally serving until 6 or 7? We have a 7DMT FP for our party night but probably won’t make it off the ride until close to 6. Do you think we would have time to make it back to CHH or Pecos Bills to grab some food before they stop serving their regular menu?

You guys talked me out of Kali. I will let the teens make their own decision. Haha. Tiffins looks great but it is a bit out of our price range. Thanks for all of the info!

Yes, I am not loving the idea of leaving either. Unfortunately I think it is our only option if we want to do Sanaa. We have River Journey and FoP FP+ first thing in the morning and RoL FP+ at night. It is our only day at AK and it will be a long one. My youngest is five and there is no way she...

Thank you! I didn't even think about the wetness factor. I don't want to be stressed out about getting somewhere on time on vacation. I switched my FP to after 4pm. I appreciate the advice. Thanks again!
