MAGIC KINGDOM DAY 2: THURSDAY AGENDA

Today you will continue your visit to Magic Kingdom. You’ll continue to see Fantasyland, and complete Liberty Square.

You should have FastPass+ for Peter Pan, Enchanted Tales with Belle, and the Haunted Mansion. Other fixed points in your schedule: you have lunch reservations at Cinderella’s Royal Table and want to see the afternoon parade at 2p. (The afternoon parade shifts to 2p between mid August and mid December 2019.)

It’s possible you might see sufficiently long waits at some of the Fantasyland rides in the afternoon that you can’t see all those indicated.  If so, see as many as you can, and come back earlier on Saturday morning than indicated to pick up the rest.
