We’ve been 3 times with the kids (5 of them) and have always stayed in one of the monorail access resorts. Always had the dining plan and park hoppers. But this time it will just be me and my husband and i don’t have much time to plan. Husband just found out today that he has to go to Orlando on Tuesday, November 3rd for work, so we figured we will vote early, get a sitter, leave the kids and make a long weekend out of it. We will fly down on Friday oct 30th. Have all day to Disney Saturday, Sunday, and all Monday. He has his work/business thing on Tuesday and we fly home Tuesday. What hotel makes the most sense if we want to hit animal kingdom (mainly to do avatar more than once) and universal studios - we’ve never been to universal- and we’d like to eat dinner in Epcot a couple nights. I think I’d like to go to Main Street USA in magic kingdom and really take in the history - you know the “boring stuff” we could never do with the kids — if i can squeeze that in.
Should we stay off site? We’ve never done that before. I had never considered off site since we always had so many kids in tow, but since just the 2 of us and interested in universal, it might be worth considering??
i want to do a few things in a few parks. Not everything in the parks since we will only be there 3 full days, so I’d really like to park hop. But is that really not an option due to covid? No park hopping? And how shortened are the hours. I’m reading different things. Read they were extended then cut back again??
What if we do animal kingdom in the day but have dinner reservations in Epcot?
is magic kingdom doing the princess castle fireworks with Ariel and Ursula? I should remember the name of it. I cry every time. It’s my favorite. but for some reason it escapes me at the moment. I heard there’s no firework shows due to covid? : (
Is that true?
should we even try to go to Star Wars I’ve heard it’s nearly impossible to get on the main attraction there?? i figured we should skip HS altogether and check out universal instead
anyway, if we can’t park hop maybe my husband should just fly there and back for one night for the business trip and we go another time when we can park hop? I’m torn. What say you?
so many questions - i know.
I’ve never tried to plan a Disney trip in less than 2 weeks!!!
appreciate any guidance and opinions. What say you?
