Disnee Dad says............................................... Call exactly 60 days before and a couple minutes before the lines open. Try this each day until you get a reservation. If that doesn't work, try plan Disnee Dad. You will have to blow an early entry to do this. Get to EE before it opens, don't be walking up at 8:30 saying hey we got early entry!! When it opens go directly to the castle. The rest of the party heads to Dumbo to see no lines and no wait. The sacrificial lamb who is giving up his/her Dumbo ride heads to Cindy reservations. Some people think going to WDW is a vacation, and will either cancel or not show up for early Cindy reservations.
We got, by hard work a 10:15 seating on our last trip, but walked to the park intent on doing EE in Fantasyland. Walking by the entrance to Cindy a CM asked if we wanted breakfast with Cindy. I said we had 10:15 reservation, and she said we could go right in if we wanted to!! We did, and still had time to hit 4-5 rides in fantasyland before the park opened!! Here is the worst thing that can happen, plan two EE days at MK, and if the first one doesn't get you A Cindy reservation, enjoy all of fantasyland in less than hour!! If the second EE can't get you a reservation you must be cursed, but the young children will love doing all of fantasyland again, in less than an hour!!!
