I think it looks like a hectic itinerary, your going in the height of summer and with two young children I’d definitely look into more rest time as they will tire easily and you dont want any meltdowns, if you look on places like Etsy and red bubble you will find sellers who do ear’s etcs

Are you planning full days ? Are your ADRs lunch or dinner ?
I only see one Epcot day, you need a park reservation to attempt a Cosmic Rewind VL and the world showcase is lovely to wander around. Your 12 August day looks long. Are you planning a full day and party ? If this is just your park plan but park days are half days, or dip in and out days and you are still planning on lots of pool time it may be manageable. Only you know your family. You probably don't need reminding that it's going to be boiling hot but .. it's going to be boiling.

On paper it looks very jam packed but if it’s mornings or afternoons and having a rest / pool time as and when then I think it’s perfectly doable.
I’d probably drop Busch if it was me personally as there’s plenty to do without travelling out. Also we’ll see you on the 12th as we are at MNSSHP too 😄 Edited at 08:54 AM. |

We’re also at MNSSHP on 12th 😀
We’ve only been to Florida once before, so no experts, but based on comments people have made before and on other threads, I’d suggest the following: As ScoopsAhoy said, drop Busch, or maybe KSC, if you haven’t already bought tickets. Appreciate that may be a tough choice if it’s likely to be your only trip, is your 8yo big enough for all the rides at BG? Have 3rd Aug as a rest day Move US to 10th and stay the night of 9th at one of the universal hotels for free express pass, which should help you get round both parks quicker. People mention using tesco vouchers and booking through hotels.com but I’ve not looked into that, someone else may have more info. Move your rest/shopping day forward to 8th As others said, it also depends on whether your days were full days or you’d already planned half days with pool breaks

Seeya there too! But I really want to cram in as much as possible as it took me 6 years to convince the missus to go, and I doubt we will be able to afford to go again so they will just have to suck it up 😂 but if we get tired we’re on-site so can bail out early and KSC is my dad treat for me 👍
