Planning my first trip!!!
Hi all!
I'm (24F) headed to orlando feb 8th-feb 15th with my sister (26F). I plan on going to the parks MTThF (Wednesday I'm exploring disney springs and then headed to the beach). I've scoured the disney website for as much info as I can, but you guys are the real experts.
- Are there any events/anything special to accommodate for? e.g., on fridays xyz park does xyz at 9pm. I'm trying to maximize my days there!
- MK, AK, Hollywood studios, and epcot (one per day but I'm not sure which days I'm doing what). are there any tips and tricks to navigating around faster, hidden gem food spot, cheap finds for activities/merch/food, etc?
- is lightning pass worth it? I am quite patient and love theme parks so I'm used to it but I'm scared disney is next level. I'm trying to budget where I can!
- How do you recommend I get around? I'm staying in an airbnb with no car and don't have the money for an uber. Is there a hub for a shuttle or bus I can take? because getting a ride to a shuttle wont be an issue (other family members have a car but they are not going to disney but they can take me to a shuttle).
- are there rules that arent obvious? e.g., do I have to reserve specific days to be in a park?
- are there any dining plans that aren't linked to hotel bookings? and are there water stations?
Thank you so much in advanced!!! I'll comment more in detail my tentative plans.
