Critique Orlando Trip & Fast Pass Help
We're making our first visit to DW in October. DH grew up in Coco, but the last time he was there was in the 70s. I grew up out west and have been to DL (but also not since the 70s). DD (all grown up now) has never been to either.
We're taking advantage of DH's FF miles and hotel points to stay off-site for the first 6 days and onsite for the last 3 (not counting ARR and DEP dates). Daughter is a horticulturist, so definitely seeing one of the botanical gardens in area. Cannot convince DH we should have more days at DW. We didn't know we had to pay for the Halloween Party (or we wouldn't have purchased tickets) so will not be attending. our MK visit is timed for a day when party is not happening. Ditto for Universal. We plan to rope drop all the parks except HS.
We plan to visit MK on an off-site day to help us decide whether we like staying off-site or on-site for future visits.
Here's our schedule:
10/19 - ARR
10/20 - Sea World or Space Center (haven't decided which day for which yet)
10/21 - Sea World or Space Center
10/22 - Free Day
10/23 - Universal & IOA
10/24 - Singing Tower + Free
10/25 - MK (L: Liberty Tavern/D: Whispering Canyon)
10/26 - Discovery Cove
10/27 - Epcot (B: Kona/L: Rose & Crown)
10/28 - AK (L: Yak & Yeti/D: Boma)
10/29 - HS and park hop (B: 1900 Park Fare/L: 50s Prime time/D: Homecoming)
10/30 - DEP
DH & DD are chickens. I might be able to convince them to ride a few of the MK coasters (suggestions welcome; Splash Mountain will be closed). I'm also a chicken but really want to ride EE at AK. Should I?
Q: Lastly, can I make 60-Day FP for the 25th if staying offsite? I was told when I purchased the tickets that we could, but the FAQ seems to say differently.
Thanks!
