Magic Kingdom Day 1 Disney World 2016 FastPass+ Lower Crowd Itinerary, 7 Night Saturday Arrival Version

MAGIC KINGDOM DAY 1: FIRST SATURDAY AGENDA

Today you will begin your visit to the Magic Kingdom, focusing on the evening shows.

Your key FastPass+ for tonight are for Wishes and the Main Street Electrical Parade.

You may not get to use other FastPass+ today, depending on your arrival time, how late the park is open, and what time the evening shows happen.  Check the Magic Kingdom calendar here. Disney requires you to get three FastPass+ regardless, so select from among Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, and the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train for your third FastPass+.

Each of these is worth multiple rides!  The other fixed point in your schedule is dinner at the Crystal Palace.

FIRST THINGS

Check in, get settled if your room is ready, and be at the Magic Kingdom as soon as you can.

FIRST THINGS

• Arrive at your hotel, following the instructions in your Disney’s Magical Express packet if you are using it to get from Orlando International to your Disney Resort. Check in
• Unless you are arriving late, your room will likely not be ready, but you can leave your bags. First change into clothes more appropriate for the weather–which your To-Do List reminded you to pack in your carry-ons. You can ask to be called or texted later to find out your exact room
• If your room is ready, and if you have time–you want to be at the Magic Kingdom as soon as you can–get food and supplies (bowls, napkins, scotch) for your breakfast in the morning, which you will be eating out of your room. Also get (from the counter service restaurant) “Refillable Mugs,” which you will be able to re-use at your resort for free drinks over your entire stay
• Head to the Magic Kingdom as soon as you can

AT THE PARK

• Be at the park in time for dinner at the Crystal Palace
• If you arrive early, use your FastPass+
• Find the FastPass+ viewing area in front of the Main Street Railroad Station for Main Street Electrical Parade and watch it
• After the parade, move  to nearer the Castle and use your FastPass+ for Wishes to see both Wishes and Celebrate the Magic
• If you are up for it, continue in the park–but tomorrow is one of your longest days of this vacation…
• Head back to your hotel

BACK AT THE HOTEL

Buy food, supplies (bowls, spoons, etc.) and refillable mugs for breakfast in your room at your hotel counter service or gift shop, if you did not have time, or a room assignment, earlier.

PREVIEW OF TOMORROW

Tomorrow you visit Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
