Re: Itinerary

Are you planning on DTD? You can take the boat right from the POFQ.

Re: Itinerary

Good plan- on day 1, I think I would have a hard time eating lunch and dinner that close together. Maybe you could eat lunch earlier, or have a late breakfast? I'm assuming that you can't change your dining time due to a Fantasmic dinner package, correct?

Re: Itinerary

That is correct we wanted to go to Mama's, however Hollywood and Vine was the best time.

Do you think we should earlier such as 11 or 11:30

Re: Itinerary

Its busy. I agree on the lunch time. Id do counter here. 50's is OK, but not worth losing the hour in the parks.

Re: Itinerary

That's a busy schedule, but I definitely think you can pull it off! It looks like you left yourself a reasonable amount of time to get between shows/meals and hopefully see an attraction or two as well!

Your trip is coming so soon....have a blast!

Re: Itinerary

I thought the first day sounded like the meals were too close, too, and it also seemed like it might be close getting to LMA if you were seated late at Primetime. I think eating that meal earlier would be a much better choice!

Re: Itinerary

For your first day, I'd consider changing to Sci Fi Drive In because it's so close to the stunt show. They have fast passes for that as well. I'm not sure that 1:20 is the right time for LMA, it could be at 1, so try and double check. Fantasmic ends at 7:30, so you might also consider eating dinner after that and not Hollywood and Vine and dump the Fantasmic dinner package. With the time you would have been eating, you'll have plenty of time to get in line by 6:30 for a seat.
The other suggestion is to do a counter service lunch before noon or make your lunch reservation for 11:30. But again, I'd switch to Sci Fi because of it's proximity to the LMA grandstand.

The rest seems ok.

Re: Itinerary

Yes, there's a Fastpass for the stunt show.

I think that looks a little better, your two meals were pretty close together.

That sounds much better; gives you a little more time to work up an appetite between meals!
