Can it be done

[Sally D]

We are going in October and have decided not to buy any Disney tickets this time but get the 5 park flex.

We have one day left on our Disney tickets from last year and the plan was to go to Epcot but leave around 4pm to go and get something to eat then go to MK just for wishes, still haven't seen it[msncry]

We would all love to go on Everest so is it possible to do this -

Arrive at AK for opening, straight to Everest and either get straight in line or a fast past.

Leave as soon as we get off and head for Epcot, spend the rest of the time there until 4pm, leave and get something to eat and then to MK just for wishes.

Are me mad or can it be done.

I can't see any reason why it can't be done. It depends on how much you want to do in Epcot as it can take a while to do all the rides and then walk around the countries. Go for it, have a great time.

They usually have Mickey's Halloween party in October so Magic Kingdom is not open as late as usual unless you have separate tickets for the party. You may need to check on the opening times to see if there are any days where there is not a party and plan your hectic day around that.

If you check the park opening times (Im not sure if October is on there yet) I think in October MK closes around 9-10 pm, so as long as you've all got the stamina, there's no reason why it shouldnt work.

As you say if you get to AK early then you should be able to get on Everest fairly quickly, if you check out the park map you can orientate yourself before you go and get to it in the shortest possible route.

I have checked the park opening times and made sure that it is not an evening when MNSSHP is on.

When we went to Epcot last year we managed to go on Mission Space twice, Soarin, Test Track and Honey I Shrunk the Audience but when we got to the countrys the heavens opened and we got soaked. Called it a day so we will probably just spend our time in the countrys.

Am I right in thinking that you only pay one lot of parking.

Dh thinks it will be no problem, I wondered about it. Girls will be 17, 14 and 11 so no problems there. We will just plan a relaxing day the next day to recover.

Just been on the disney web-site and new firworks from october called dreams to go with the year of a million dreams, couldn't find a start date.

Sally if you only want to do the countries at Epcot then going to AK first is a great idea - the countries don't open until 11am (from memory!!) so you should be there in great time.

[rosie]

Sally, yes you only pay parking once at the Disney parks. Pay at AK and it is valid at the other parks all day [msnsmile]
