MK fireworks tip: don’t worry about looking at it through your phone camera. There are some amazing videos of the fireworks on YT, enjoy the experience with your friends or family
💯
Now get everyone else in front of you to do this 😆
Drives me crazy!!
U are completely right
Absolutely! They have much better equipment than a phone. I understand taking a quick pic or video, but recording the whole thing on a phone? No way I'm watching that.
Thank you for bringing a little magic to those of us who cant afford this. It really does mean alot.
That first time we stepped into MK, we were all floored at how surreal it all was. My daughter got instantly excited seeing the castle at the end of Main Street and my wife and I knew we were hooked lol
Awwwwww ❤❤❤
I miss Disney World, I used to go as a passholder long time ago, but ever since they decided to overcharge for everything and take away all the complementary items I stopped going Disney World should be ashamed of themselves, overcharging families, significantly price, gouging, it’s only for the rich people, it’s no longer for regular people like me I can’t believe how much it cost to go there you can’t even afford to buy a Coke. It’s control cost a fortune just to park your car if you can even afford a car, then you have to wait in line for two hours, I hope the part goes out of business. That’ll teach them price hikers
@@kraft837I hope Universals new park gives Disney a rude awakening!
@@77Scarlet same here I hope so
Thanks AJ! You've confirmed my park scheduling "Expert" status with this vid. We landed in WDW on April 27th and attacked Animal Kingdom Lodge that day where we were staying. 28th was Animal Kingdom and 29th was EPCOT with extended evening hours. 30th was a rest day at Springs followed by MK on May 1st with extended evening hours. Another day down on Thursday to recover and a full Friday, May 3rd at Hollywood Studios (the day before May the Fourth) which meant the place was DEAD and we conquered EVERYTHING twice! 173,000+ steps in 7 Days and 100.1 miles walked. We holiday HARD!!
Sounds like a perfect WDW trip!!! Congratulations.
We've gotten to be pros at Disneyworld and disneyland. Our next upcoming challenge at Tokyo Disney in June! Im nervous and excited!
OOOOOOOh that’ll be SO FUN!
@@dfbbreea i know. We cannot wait!
Oh that is so exciting! Goals for us!
Ohhhhhh!!!!! You are going to LOVE it!!!!!!! LOVE it!!!!
I'm from Brazil, so its quite a long trip to get to Orlando. Me and my family we usually pick Epcot to start for several reasons. It's not the Magic Kingdom, it's a big park so in the first day of your trip you gonna be rested and it has a late fireworks show. We leave the Animal Kingdom for the second day, thirty day should be a rest day, then Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios.
Sounds like a great game plan!
My kids have been on the GO since they were born! I never let them slow us down and we went and did everywhere! Magic Kingdom will be a breeze for them, especially at 12 and 14 now! They’re used to living life at lightening speed! 😂😂
My experience, though not super recent - if the parades and fireworks aren’t your priority, at least in that day, take the opportunity to go to the rides that generally have long rides during that time. We did the Snow White and the Seven Dwarves Mine Ride back to back with no line during the fireworks display (and still enjoyed some of the light show).
Congrats on 1M subscribers. Been a fan of your channel for several years. Watch it during the year as part of our preparation for our annual travels from DFW to the Disney bubble. Appreciate all the information and your passion for what you do for Disney parks fans.
Leaving tomorrow for a Disney wedding week! Can’t wait! My besties daughter is beautiful and she and her fiancé love Disney! Can’t wait!
Aww have fun!! ❤
Thank yiyu for this awesome video. The schedule that you show is our exact one in June!! Thanks again for the info!!!
We got a 5 day park hopper coming up soon! Needed this!
Thank god tough to be a bug is being rethemed. Traumatized me as a wee kid in the single digits. Gathered the courage to go with friends in my 30's still scared the daylights out of me. HATE TOUGH TO BE A BUG
If you live in the U.K. 15 day park tickets are available for the same price as 7days. Been using these for nearly 30 years !
When our kids were little, we choose to visit Disneyland over Disney World for the very same reason, easy to plan, more compact to get into both park and strolling around, Toontown, etc.
Once the kids are in elementary school age, we start doing Disney world mostly for 7 days with 5 full day in the park. First and last day at MK, with the other 3 blend in between.
During Extended evening hours era, we planned which park to visit sole depends on which park offered extra time, normally it’s HS, EPCOT, AK and MK, then we did a split stay at universal for 3 days to end our trip.
Now the kids are much older and all they care about is thrill ride, especially after Epic opens, our next trip probably will be stay at universal, and only do after hours event at HS and MK.
First! And this is a perfect video me and my wife are going this year and five days is the perfect amount of time! Thank you so much
Have a blast!!
We've done AK as our first park for the past 2 trips. I love it!
It depends on the day of the week where we start (assuming we'll be doing all 4 when we visit). But our first day in town always starts at the Wyndham by Disney Springs with shopping and eating. Then it may also depend where we stay too. We usually do split stays (and tend to be in the BW area first) so Epcot or HS might be first. Animal Kingdom is always relaxing though -can't go wrong there!
Same! It totally depends on our arrival day! I plot out every park and day after I see that!
AJ I am convinced you read my mind. I just booked our 5 day trip for August.
Thanks AJ and your staff. We fly out June 1st. We have the first two days the same then a day at Typhoon Lagoon. The next two days will be magic kingdom and Hollywood on our last day. It worked out this way because we will be getting the extra hours at Epcot and MK.
Since we have the extras, both days we’ll be going back to the resort for naps and pool time.
God Bless AJ.
PS… I’ll think of our dads when I’m there God rest their souls.
You can never have enough Disney
Day one we always Rope Drop Magic Kingdom and hit a ride or 2 then have a late Breakfast at Ohana, but I can totally see taking it easy at Animal Kingdom for first timers to ease into Disney crowds!
Ohana is a great day one meal!
I always love your videos and your suggestions. Thank you. I like to start at Epcot. It is a later park and not so overwhelming when it comes to rides. My kids liked the chill relaxed vibe with going on rides with not long waits like Figment and living with the land and spaceship earth and having the option of doing whatever whenever. We enjoy the seas and aquarium and just taking it all in. If we happen to go around 9:30am those rides I mentioned are typically not long, and we can do frozen and ratatouille later on.
Epcot is a great first day park, too!!
Your videos have helped me get through a severe case of the disney blues since we got back from our trip last week.
Post-Disney Blues are so real 😩
@@dfbbreea coming back from any vacation is hard, but disney is a different level entirely.
We go for eight days and seven nights. The longest my family and I have gone is 10 days.We are going soon and we are starting our first day at Epcot with our early flight.On one of our trips, we did start our trip with animal kingdom.
This will be my third year in a row going to Disneyland in June for Father's Day week. Yes, I know having a 2 year old that would not remember much, if not anything, isn't the best idea. Just seeing him laugh and smile when Buzz,Woody, Mickey, Goofy, etc... is all worth it for me. Especially the pictures parents make, hoping for the kid to smile.
Y'all read my mind, this is the order that I'm visiting the parks for my upcoming trip! AK first sounds like a great way to ease into it
LOVE to hear it!!
We first went to Disney World 3 years ago. I had never been before and my partner hadn’t been to WDW since it was MGM Studios. How surreal everything is in WDW is overwhelming in the best way possible. We have gone back every year since, going at different times to take advantage of the different festivals. I never do a park day on my travel days, too stressful haha. Lately, we’ve been flying out at 6pm (after work). That way all our PTO days are put to good use and only one of those PTO days are used for travel haha. This year it’s our first Halloween trip and I’m super excited!
Wow! Kinda sounds like us .. started returning several times/year in early 2020 (then our global hiccup) after not being there since 1994! What a change! And challenging to learn/navigate! But so fun too!
Out go to since trip one was AK day one and MK last day. Slower first day and our last Disney impressions will be the castle. Usually do a character breakfast on our departure day too
that is exactly the order my boyfriend and I did when we went to Disney World last year except - the first two days were Animal Kingdom, we spent half days in each and hopped to another park for dinner and another ride or two, day 4 was a soggy resort day - and the Hollywood Studio day had a Jollywood Night party so the daytime crowd was down a bit -- I'm a morning person so I rope dropped every day and my boyfriend would meet me for lunch
AJ throw them to the wolves!! 😂Magic Kingdom is always the 1st park of the trip! We just have a team huddle 😅and hope for the best 🎉
I would love to see a 7 or 8 day perfect trip video 😊
Monday Epcot with extended evening hours, Tuesday Hollywood studios Wednesday MK with extended evening hours, Thursday resort day and Friday animal kingdom for us in June
We are planning to go to Animal Kingdom on day 1. We plan to get to Pandora during early park entry. We are going to do Flight of Passage and River Journey first. Glad I'm on the same page.
You’ve GOT this! 🎉
Nice, reminds me on trip to Valencia
This is pretty close to my upcoming trips schedule! I laughed when you suggested an After hours for Studios because that is exactly what I'm doing! The day we get in is The Hollywood Studios After hours event, Day 2 Animal Kingdom, Day 3 Epcot, Day 4 Free day probably a bar crawl on the Skyliner and dinner at Springs, Day 5 Magic Kingdom...then we go On The Wish for 4 more days! We are very excited
We must be on the same wavelength!
I’d love to see this with estimated prices, to set expectations when budgeting on what a particular trip itinerary may cost. Disney is expensive, it’s well known, but having a sample itinerary with price estimate would be helpful!
Would love a 7 day and 10 days itinerary please ! 😍
Most likely arriving after 2 PM my first day after leaving Daytona Beach for my 30th class reunion and visiting family. Since Animal Kingdom closes early it will not be my first day park. Epcot Center being my favorite park it will be the first to visit after 2 PM and second day with a park reservation already made. Also after paying $1400 for an annual pass no way I am paying $150 for an extra 3 hours!!!
I like to begin AND end my Walt Disney World trips with Animal Kingdom!
Can’t argue with that!
I miss Disney world so much I’ve been wanting to go back for so long only problem is the saving for the trip part which is very difficult because I’m always needing money for food or to pay the bills it really sucks but hopefully one day in life I will get a chance to go back! 😊
Is it possible for you to do a Disney food guide for Kosher options at Disney World? Thanks in advance!
WDW website says kosher options can be accommodated at table service and some quick service 24 hours ahead of time by calling (407) WDW-DINE. So it seems like it’s treated as a special dietary restriction and there won’t be any ready made options for you.
I only have 3 days this October. So my picks would be
Islands of Adventure
Epcot
Animal kingdom
Ooh I LIKE it!
@@dfbbreea have you been to all 3? 🙃
@@randyv8232 yes! I’d actually say they’re my top 3!
@@dfbbreea Yey!!!! Thank you. 🙂
I recently went to magic kingdom the first day of the trip I am a young senior with some mobility issues . It was overwhelming!
It really is!!
Love Mohana journey of water
The safari would definitely need to be the very first ride when visiting Animal Kingdom.
I like seeing all the animals so active in the morning 😊
We're starting at Animal Kingdom this weekend. Happens a lot because we usually travel Friday and start parks on Saturday. I will NOT go to Magic Kingdom or HollyWood Studios on a Saturday, unless that is my only option.
Love watching these videos to visit ‘by proxy’ since I probably won’t ever go.
Hey AJ! I haven't been to Disney since 2006 (Sr class trip) so it's gonna feel like a 1st timer for sure.
Planning for next year, me and the girlfriend, 5 park days. Any tips on whether we should do March, May, or September?
Love the videos!
What is the best resource to see the shows and their reviews. We would like to know what is available, particularly when lines are long or feet are tired!
Katsura grill has yummy curry chicken and miso wings
We were in Epcot two different days 2 weeks ago and no Figment meet and greet.😢
Our upcoming lineup as of now is based off of flip flopping skyliner access so Hollywood Studios first then Animal Kingdom, then Epcot, and best for last in our opinion Magic Kingdom! 😂
We went to Disney World for 4 days at the beginning of May and were not able to buy the ILL without Genie+. Not sure if that ability is an added perk when you’re a passholder, but something some may want to prepare for.
Do an itinerery for tokyo disney and for universal resorts Orlando
Please do the same for dl/dca but 3-4 days
Did I understand that for GoG virtual queue for extended hours you need to get your time at 6pm?
If this is true, does this need to be for TRON as well?
Thanks for any information.
I could never get in the virtual queues, exactly at 7 am they are all gone! I buy the lightening lanes.
My friend got an after hours a ticket at one of the water parks
It’s been 2 years since Cosmic Rewind opening, do you think they’ll keep the VQ for much longer?
We’re going in late Sept. plan is to hit EPCOT on arrival day, is that a good option?
140 days to go till im hopping on a plane to orlandooo!!!
Woohooooo!!!
Can we have a Disney in 1 day video??? That’s always interested me!
Depends on what you want. I went for two days and I just focused on two parks. You could do a park hopper challenge.
I’m doing a split stay between Riverside Royal room & the Poly - solo trip - can you do a solo trip video? I need all the help I can get lol
Solo trips just make everything 1,000 times easier. The only issue I’ve come across is the reservation system sometimes not allowing tables for 1. So I usually book for 2 and let my host know when I get there.
@@AlexandriatheRed I hired a TA for the first time & she’s been amazing at getting my must try/do reservations. I’m worried I won’t know what to do with myself lol
Thanks for the tips. I couldn’t catch the names of the rides. You talk so fast. I thought I talked fast. 😂😂😂
What is a better choice: an extra day in the parks or a day in disney springs? 5 or 6 park days(2 days mk and 2 days epcot and the rest 1 day or only mk 2 days)?
Ooh that’s TRICKY. I like having a Disney Springs day just to give myself a little break mid-trip, but if you don’t plan on visiting Disney World again for a while, then you may wanna double dip on some of those parks while you have the chance!
@@dfbbreea i am from europe so i dont plan on coming back anytime soon. I also want to go to disneyland california in the same trip
That five days goes by too quickly. Best tips to return to Disney?
Do y’all have a video that says how many days each park actually takes?
It really all depends on the group. For me, I could spend a full day in Animal Kingdom, but I have friends who tend to treat it like a half-day park. And while one day in Magic Kingdom feels like a good fit for me, those traveling with younger kiddos will more than likely want to split up the park into mutliple days to help pace things out and take plenty of breaks. Again, it all depends on what you and your group are wanting to accomplish, and how much time you wanna accomplish it in! I’d say look over all the different offerings in each park and come up with a list of “must do”s. You can start to get a feel for how many days you’ll need in each park after you see your priorities listed out.
I think the free water park on arrival day will backfire on Disney. People arriving mid-afternoon or later might stay first night at off site hotel so they can enjoy full benefit of free water park the next day...I know I would!
Unfortunately, disney hours at hollywood studios all the years
Best way to have the ULTIMATE 5 day WDW??? Stay for a week. My trips always start at 7-8 days and we end up changing last minute and stay for 10-12.
I 1000% agree on the Animal Kingdom for the first day of the park, great choice
We just like easing into things 😊
Yes! Same here! 😍 On the first day, I have to take it easy at AK!
Like a old man in a hot tub
If we booked a 2 hotel trip will we receive 2 water park admissions for the entire excursion?
Hi! The hotel water park perk is available at the start of 2025, and you can only use it on the day you check into your Disney hotel. If you get to your hotel early - before your room is ready - you can always drop your luggage off with bell services so you don’t have to worry about carrying it around all day long.
@@dfbbreea the question is something I realized watching Wednesday’s Video. If you book 2 or more hotels during the same trip are you getting a water park admission for each check in day?
@@nocturnus009 you should get one for each check in day. "split stays" are a fan concept, Disney's system treats every reservation as a separate one. no reason to think you won't get more than one water park admission the way you're able to order a magic band for each resort stay. tbh it's probably the best use case for it since you'll not have a room for a chunk of your moving day.
Is one day enough for Animal Kingdom?
It really all depends on your personal preferences and what time of year you’re visiting, but in the past we’ve managed to accomplish pretty much everything we really wanted to do here in a single day 😊
Our flights get in at 1230pm. We booked the halloween party on day1 sept.2. Do you think i made the right choice?
You might not have a room to get ready in until 4-5pm, and you should plan on walking to magic kingdom gates at 345pm. That would be the only challenge, if you are dressing into a costume.
I like doing parties on arrival day. You can go into the park (on your party ticket) and not use up a park ticket for a half day (arrival day).
@@allihead6292 yea we are doing shirts for that reason lol
@@vincent412l7 thank you❤
Day one Epcot
Not until the 4 th day
After 10 yrs of using DAS, i no longer qualify. So AJ? Are all lines easy to navigate using a ECV? I see my self taking out a few folks but gosh no other alternative but to stay home.
I took the red eye and got to the parks at 830
Were you exhausted??
Not until the 4th day
I slept on the plane and napped before I left
@@dfbbreea no not til the 4th day
Hollywood Studios a half ( or quarter day) Epcot 3 days,MK 1 3/4 days
I support an Epcot-heavy trip 😎
Akershus is another example of Disney giving you less and charging you more.They used to have you meet a princess for a professional photo that they would print out and place in a souvenier folder. That is gone now. Got rid of it when it reopened after Covid.
We have eaten there many times for breakfast pre-Covid. We went back last April. It is not the same. We won't be returning, sadly.
The virtual queue is the most short-sighted decision of this lifetime.
5 days in 2025: 3 days at epic universe and 2 days at islands of adventure
Epcot first day. Animal kingdom last day
Oh no is the night time parade gone?
Hey, hey, hey! Slow down AJ. You’re talking way too fast and we have to keep rewinding. It’s not fun to pick up tips when you’re talking a mile a minute.
Did you know if you hit the little gear icon you can speed up or slow down the playback speed? Try that and see if it helps. 😊 Hope it's helpful!!
No, I didn’t. What does that do to the sound quality?
Always turn her videos to 0.75 speed (until she learns to slow down). It'll sound like a normal human being 😅
@@amypresuhn2563wow!!! That’s a game changer! Thank you! The original speed gives me some anxiety. lol!!
Step 1: Go to Universal :) Step 2: Go to Avatar ride Step 3: Go back to Universal
Don’t do Cinderella’s Royal Castle. It made me sick and ruined my whole day at Magic Kingdom.
The water park deal is AWFUL. NOONE is going to water park right after a long flight. Most arrive at night time. Its just pointless and dumb
