Everything I have gleaned is from these boards. (I have been twice before but that was quite some time ago). We will be there same days 29 Oct - 2 Nov (5 park days) at the GCH. If you have EMM remember these are, DL 29, 31, 2 and DCA 30, 1st so you’ll want to make the most of these. For example, we have Storytellers booked for 10am on the 30th but will go to DCA at 7am till we cross over to Storytellers which will be quick and easy.
From what I can see, the crowds are expected to be light during that period especially the first few days.
We are doing OBB on the 29th but will do DL early till late lunch and then rest until OBB. The plan at this stage is to rest each afternoon (go from 7 - 12 or 1 each day, go back to hotel for 3 or 4 hrs, then back to the park).
We plan to use MP (recommended by most from my reading of these boards) because it will be more convenient (instead of crossing between parks) and the next pass can be obtained 30mins sooner. From last time, the FP were great, make sure you use either them or the MP.
