A couple of other questions I have.

I have checked schedules, and I believe there are no rehabs during this time, please correct me if I’m wrong.

Stitch, are there likely to be any soft openings during my visit? What about Mummy at Universal?

Priority Seating. I’m thinking of doing to Fantasmic Dinner Package, will I be able to book this on the day? What suggestions do you have for a nice meal on our last day in Florida?

Any help will be much appreciated.

Regards
DJ

Just a couple of notes:

Monday, Apr. 19: You are going to MK. Monday is MK's busiest day.

Tueday, Apr. 20: You are goin to Epcot. Tuesday is supposedly Epcot's busiest day.

Perhaps I would switch them.

get your priority seatings TODAY

The parks have been busy this spring, maybe busier than usual. Therefore, you might strongly consider composing your itenerary in anticipation of where you will be eating on what days and calling the 407 WDW DINE number and making all your priority seatings at one time. You might be disappointed to learn a particular restaurant is sold out for the day you want to eat supper there, so have a backup plan.

I will be down in less than 2 weeks and made my priority seating for the Fantasmic Dinner & show about 2 weeks ago.

I would recommend on the day you go to EPCOT Center doubling up with the boardwalk which is within walking distance. You might even park at the boardwalk and enter EPCOT Center through the gate in World of Nations so that when EPCOT closes, you walk straight to the boardwalk, enjoy its activities, then get in your car there and drive back to the hotel.

As to the meal on your last day, why not make a reservation for 'Ohanas at the Polynesian so that you are there when the Wishes fireworks go off, and you can catch the water parade around Bay Lake. That is an excellent parade that many Disney guests have never seen. It might be a nice finishing touch on your trip.

I'd check into what parks have Extra Magic Hour (if they still do that) on what days and try to take advantage of that to get on a few rides that normally have the longest lines. The Universal parks are generally alot more crowded on the weekends, so I'd try avoiding them, at least on Saturday.
