Another arrival day question

[rubysapphire]

I'm so sorry if these questions are getting annoying.

Our flight arrives at 1:30 and we are staying at BLT. You guys have convinced me we should walk over to MK for a while that afternoon/evening. I'm thinking of just doing our three fast passes and having dinner there. How much time should I allow for getting off our flight, to the hotel, and then over to MK? I want to make sure I leave a big enough cushion before making any dinner or FP reservations. Any suggestions on what we should do with our three FPs that day? (My daughter will be 5 and is princess obsessed, my son will be 3, I'd love to do some of the biggie FPs that day). Dinner suggestions? We will also have my parents with us that day so I'd love for them to get to see some of the more "magical" things. Oh, and I don't want to stay for the parade/fireworks that night. It will be too long of a day for my kids.

I would have your first fast pass start at 4:15-4:30. You can enter the line 5 minutes before your time slot begins. Maybe Talking Mickey (right at the entrance), a set of princesses, and Peter Pan's flight?
Maybe Enchanted Tales with Belle. Grandparents love that.

I was thinking Belle and Peter Pan for sure, and maybe dinner at BOG?

If you can get it. When do you go?

I don't think you will get BOG for arrival day. I would plan on Crystal Palace if you want to eat in MK.

I would do Peter Pan, Enchanted Tales with Belle and a Princess M&G. Cinderella and Rapunzel will be separate by then and each will have another princess with them (probably SnowWhite and Aurora).

How far out are you?

I agree with waiting until around 4, and if you are far enough out, try and grab BOG. Or do a 3:30-4:30(knowing you'll be on the later end) a 4:30-5:30 and a 5:30-6:30(and go right at 5:30) then try and snag a Chef Mickey's dinner. Not great food but a good way to kick off the trip.

So A&E are leaving MK when the M&G opens at Epcot? I haven't been keeping up recently, lol

Yes they are going back to Norway. Rumor is in their Frozen Fever dresses. No FPs available past mid May at MK. So Snow and Aurora will go back to fairytale hall.

[ilikedonuts]

They will should have two meet and greets but then again with two different sets of dresses people will want to meet both sets.

My 180 days is coming up in a couple weeks, so I may get lucky!
