With four major theme parks -- Magic Kingdom (bigger in itself than California's Disneyland), Epcot, MGM Studios, and Animal Kingdom-- a Walt Disney World vacation can be complex and costly: all the more reason to plan carefully to make sure you have the best possible time.
Below are tips to help you have a great Disney World Vacation. (Click on each tip for details.)
1. Pick your time of year with care. You need to balance three main factors: crowds, heat, park schedules. Don't overlook the importance of park closing times!
2. Pick your park according to Extra Magic Hour. Every morning, one of the four theme parks opens early for resort guests only. Either rush to the early opening yourself, or avoid that park for most of the day.
3. Get to the theme parks early. This advice is especially important for Disney's water parks (which are packed by noon) and Animal Kingdom (which closes early.)
In the Magic Kingdom, Main Street opens early so people can have breakfast at Crystal Palace and Cinderella's Royal Table. Arrive early, and you can race to Splash Mountain as soon as the park officially opens.
4. Take a break in the afternoon . Go early to the park of your choice; take a break and return to your resort or hotel when the day is hottest; return to the parks in the evening. Three theme parks have lots to offer after dusk.
5. Use Fastpass . Fastpass compares favorably to sliced bread as a great invention. It's free, it's simple, and it saves you from standing in line for the most popular rides. Get the most out of Fastpasses-- and your whole Disney World vacation-- by using them strategically.
6. Bring snacks and drinks. These tips can save you money on hot and humid Florida days when your kids need to drink liquids all day long.
