Looking for a little collective wisdom since my group cannot decide. We have had kind of a dreadful January and this past weekend, we determined that we have one day in the coming week to spend at one park. Three of us were just at all four parks in October and one of us has not been there since a very young age and has very limited memories of WDW.
Decision 1
Friday or Saturday
Decision 2
AK or MK
The pros for Friday AK are that there are no EMH hours so we can rope drop with everyone else. The cons are that this day has shorter hours.
The cons for Saturday AK is that there are EMH hours. But - all together, the park hours are better this day and that's a pro.
The pros for Friday MK, are that we would have Saturday to recoup before traveling again on Sunday. The cons are that we like an 11pm closing over a 10pm because the crowds really do thin out as the evening progresses.
The pros for Saturday MK are the hours are 8am - 11pm with no EMH but with these hours, and a Saturday of a long weekend, the potential for bigger crowds might be pretty high. There's the con.
The problem is we think there is more to see and do at MK for our first-in-a-long-timer, but the crowds are heavier and the lines are longer, in general, and our last minute booking will limit our FP selection. We absolutely love FoP in AK and would ride it twice, but we were just there so do we want to do all of the other attractions again so soon.
