Just booked Early Morning Magic- any reviews from Dibbers?

[Shooby doo]

Touring plans have just done a review online, for what it's worth they recommend multiple trips to AYCTE Breakfast (mostly for pastries & coffee) they thought that 9:45 might be the latest as it finishes at 10:00. TBH I'm not going to pay $70 for an extra 75 mins, especially when "Fantasyland EMH" really means 7DMT,PP & winnie...hardly all of Fantasyland! For what it's worth they said that it was better than the evening one but was priced too high.

Definitely still people coming in at 10am and being served. I worked out the cost of a bog breakfast for early entry against this and it worked out great value. It depends of you like early mornings, like mine train being an. Walk on and practically only you on it with a choice of seating and a stroll through a very empty park . We thought it was worth it and we range from age 13-70.

Do you have to call to book? or can you do it online at 180 days? looking to do this mid september as we are only onsite in disney for three days so are squeezing in all four parks and need our fastpasses for AK later that night - for me those three rides plus rope dropping splash and Big thunder mountain and perhaps even getting over to pirates early enough will be priceless without being able to book fast passes

You can book online, I did it yesterday. Yep, 180 days (currently the last one is 28th August.) I couldn’t get it to come up on the app but it’s on the website. I had technical issues with the ‘book’ button after searching for availability. 9 times out of 10 it wouldn’t do anything when I pressed it but got there eventually .

That sounds about right, I paid $283.31 inc. tax for the four of us yesterday (including two children over 10.) Not sure whether there is some slight price fluctuation for peak dates or whether I have made that up.

Yep, I agree. I wasn’t expecting much breakfast wise, particularly as we’re vegetarian but all four of us ate really well and I was pleasantly surprised. They really kept on top of making sure the food was stocked up and it all looked really appetising. The fruit was very good; I was expecting the usual cheap melon and grapes like in the kids’ fruit bowl sides, but the variety was excellent (pineapple, strawberries, blueberries) and it all tasted good. Hopefully they haven’t changed that .

Also, it was nice and quiet in there so it was a very chilled out relaxing breakfast and felt like something a bit special. They also had CMs checking on everyone and bringing out birthday cupcakes and singing to those celebrating. I think Mexy is right, the value compared to BOG breakfast holds up. I personally would not pay OOP for BOG breakfast as it doesn’t seem ‘worth it’ to me, especially since it’s not a buffet so your quantity of food is limited, and the fact that it’s always busy and noisy in there (we’ve done lunch a few times.) But if you compare it price-wise, the extra $ you’re paying for those rides with no wait is not really that much .

Thanks for all replies- I'm really looking forward to this. Yes it's a splurge, but we are early risers anyway and love the idea of being able to take fantasyland in without all the crowds, then get a headstart on the other headliners.
