Disney World FastPass+ Lower Crowd Itinerary, 7 Night Sunday Arrival Version
NOTE: THIS ITINERARY IS OUT OF DATE. A REVISED VERSION FOR 2017 WILL BE OUT SHORTLY
Below is a seven night, Sunday arrival variant of my updated FastPass+ based Disney World itinerary for lower crowd weeks.
It does not work all dates, and some dates that it mostly works it may need some little adjustments.
Check your week here. If the lower crowd eight night itinerary works unchanged, then so will this. If I indicate on the linked page required changes to the eight night itinerary, then use the comment form below to ask about your week.
There’s also a seven night option with a Saturday arrival. If you could do either 7 night arrival date, this Sunday arrival version is much better.
The recommended FastPass+ that make it work are in the To-Do List, so you can book them at the 60 day window for FastPass+ sign-ups. Daily agendas are in the links:
