Realistically, How many rides in one day in May at MK?

[minimum77]

We were planning on buying an after hours ticket for MK in May but seeing as it villains themed were not too keen after watching YouTube videos. If we go in a typical day how much can we get done realistically. We can go any day from 19th May until 29th. I would stay clear of Memorial Day weekend and an EMH day. Would also like a day at HS but no idea how busy it'll be after New Star Wars ride opens so will wait and see. Thanks x

HOw longs a piece of string?

It would totally depend on so many things...will you be there’s from open to close? Will you stop for lunch? Will you be going at a relaxing pace? Will you go in the shops? Stop for the parade. Queue for rides? What will your Fastpasses be? Will you book more as the day goes on?

This question is impossible to answer really. We always get everything we want to do done, but we are fast paced people and don’t stop for much.

We would stop for lunch but only a quick service, we would hope to be in all day, just trying to work out if it's worth it, don't want to £300 for 1 day and not be able to do much.

Me and my daughter did 23 on Boxing Day 2010 between 7am and 2pm. We were first in the park and know what we are doing but even though it was mobbed by 10am it is possible to surf the wave if you start properly. So I’d say go for it. But get a plan!

We did 12 fast passes before lunch in MK one day in summer so you should be able to get a load in

We rarely use the standby queues and just keep booking fast passes. We can usually get at least ten FP in a day and we would be satisfied with that.

As the others have said, it depends on how long you plan to be in MK and whether you take it at a leisurely pace or try to do as much as possible. And also whether you manage to get fastpasses for the rides with long queues.

If you are there from just after 9am in the morning to 9pm at night, you'll be able to do at least 20 things. You should be able to do most of the rides, some of the shows, and have time to eat food and the occasional rest.

wow so at least 3 rides an hour incl Qing (even FP has a Q... ) and getting from a to b..

impressive going i'd say 12 in a day was going for it, bearing in mind once your first 3 FP are done you picking up the bits & pieces left

That just means one ride every 20 minutes.

So 5 minutes in the fastpass queue, 5 minutes on the ride, 10 minutes to get from A to B. It doesn't seem too unreasonable to me, if the park is fairly quiet. If it's busy then, yes, it's good going.

Scoobydoo said they did 23 in 7 hours. Which is also around one ride every 20 minutes.

not unreasonable just seems like a massive rush..did say it was in summer so assume was busy... ..

23 rides in 7 hours seems similarly a massive rush no chance to see the wood for the trees
