This Walt Disney World itinerary is designed for the three weeks following Thanksgiving.
Update 5/12/2015: Hey, you need to swap Wednesday and Thursday in this itinerary and its associated To-Do List!

If you aren’t going one of those weeks, see Other Itineraries for alternatives the rest of the year, which are published about six months ahead.

Moreover, a detailed To-Do List covers all the steps you need to undertake–including reserving dining and booking FastPass+.
ITINERARY DESIGN GOALS
The basic itinerary was designed to meet several goals: to ensure that you
- See the best that Walt Disney World has to offer
- See the parks in the order that works best for kids (essentially Epcot first, as it is potentially the most disappointing, and the Magic Kingdom last, as it is likely to be the best loved)
- Avoid unnecessary waiting, by using FastPass+ and other tactics…
- Have as much time off, and as few early mornings, as practical
- Avoid unnecessary spending–for example, the basic itinerary does not require you to buy the “Park Hopper” option, saving you more than $200
If you can’t do the Basic Itinerary, see Other Itineraries for alternatives for both the December week and the rest of the year.

Sorry dumb question, why would MK be busier on a Monday vs a Sunday?
Hi Andreas! With an exception or two this looks great. 11/30 and 12/7 will both be quite busy at MK, and 12/6 at HS. Moreover you may not need two days at HS. So leave the 30th as is, do MK the 6th, not the 7th, and reserve the 7th for returning to your favorite park–or relaxing at your hotel.
Tammy, I don’t have much to offer here. Have you seen this? Agree that from Pop you should aim for the Contemporary…
Hi Dave!
Do you have any advice on the fishing by take me fishing’? Looking for most convenient resort to go to. We are at Pop. The one at Caribbean is closest but looks like would have to go to MK then bus it back to Caribbean and do some walking to get there. Contemporary looks fairly easy as the marina is right off the monorail drop off. I assume they all have great fishing. I don’t see any prices in the info for 2 and 4 hr trips.
Thanks!
