Hello this is my first trip to Walt Disney World.
We are flying there June 16 and flying back on June 23.
We haven't booked any park tickets, dining reservations, hotel rooms, or airplane tickets yet.
This is my plan, any suggestions?
June 16 - Arrive... If we go to any parks depends on the airline.
June 17 - Epcot's Future World
June 18 - Magic Kingdom: Tomorrowland & Fantasyland
June 19 - Magic Kingdom: Liberty Square, Frontierland, & Adventureland, also Downtown Disney
June 20 - Epcot, and a water park
June 21 - Hollywood Studios
June 22 - Animal Kingdom
June 23 - Go home... If we go to any parks depends on the airline.

According the touringplans.com this is the recommended parks according to the crowd levels:
17th - Epcot
18th - Hollywood Studios
19th - Magic Kingdom
20th - Epcot
21st - Animal Kingdom
22nd - Magic Kingdom

Instead of going to the park on the 16th, maybe you could spend some time at DTD. I would probably start making your dining reservations since you're past the 180 day mark. Good luck!

7 days sounds like a lot but it isn't! Don't waste a second! Be at the parks 30-45 minutes before opening it's worth it!!!! And get a copy of the unofficial guide to Dinsey a BIG BIG help for a first trip! By the way did you make dining reservations if not do so NOW places are already filling up quickly! Good luck and have fun!

Personally, we spend 2 FULL days in Epcot each trip and that isn't enough. So splitting that and a water park day seems a bit rushed. So if you do get the early flight in, spend that first half day at Epcot, to make up for the half you would miss going to the water park.

I do like that you are giving Animal Kingdom the full day and not cutting out of there to rush somewhere else. It is more than just going on rides. It's a place to slow down, explore and take everything in.

Being first timers, you should slow down and give each park a full day to take it all in.

And depending on your return flight, you could schedule that one for very late and do your water park day the day you leave. They will keep your luggage locked up at the resort for you, even though you check out of the room.

We usually go in June and as it gets later in the month, the crowds grow bigger. And it is HOT, so expect it and be prepared for it. Nobody should be surprised that it is VERY HOT in Florida in June. It's a mindset that will help you enjoy things.

Whatever you do...HAVE FUN!!!!

TL is our favourite but BB is awesome also... To be honest in our 14 days of magic,approx 4-5 hours are spent at the water park. Coming from Scotland,we get wet most of the year.;)

By which one I meant which park did you want me to go on the first day.

I was dedicating the first day to a water park, and the fifth day to a water park as well.
Because I wanted to go to both.
That fifth day was also the World Showcase. We might not want to spend that much time in that part...

It looks like we might go to the early return flight, giving us only 7 park days.
But if we have a last day, we will move TL to the last day and give Epcot another full day.

It looks like our hotel choice is All-Star Movies. Me and my two sons in a room, the Grandma and neice in a room, and the stepsister and her boyfriend in another room.

It looks like we have somewhere between 12 and 15 reservations to make.
Depending on whether we have lunch and dinner the first day, and what airline we have the last day so we may have lunch.

I'm having a feeling that on the 18th we eat at BoG, but that's the only thing I'm sure of.

Lunch that day will be in Tomorrowland.

Lunch on the 19th might be in Pecos Bill and Dinner is somewhere in either Adventureland or Main Street.

. Ok.First park MK..Personally myself I think spending two days at TL & BB is far too long.Especially when your only at WDW for five days.You could do a morning at each one.

I'm there for about either 6 1/2 or 7 days, but you are true. I'll spend some time in BB on the first day, and then a morning at TL on the fifth day, but then on the rest of the days, respectively, I'll be resort-hopping and at the World Showcase.
