Good luck for FP day! I think the plans look great. 1st November I would maybe go to Epcot and use up some of the spare credits on snacks then head to Disney Springs and spend the rest on candy and chocolate

If your still looking for something to do on 31st there's a few of us having a Dibb meet at Disney Springs on the October/November thread at 6.30pm

Those days that you haven't planned anything towards the end of the holiday you could just leave till the time and fill them with going to a park where you haven't spent much time or got to do all the rides. Maybe try and squeeze another AK day in as it's quite big and so much to do x

Fab advice, thanks!

Purchasing chocolate is defo a great plan and also leaving time at the end flexible is maybe good so we can revisit whatever we want.

I guess I may just book fast passes for every day regardless and the cancel or amend if our plans change?

And thanks for the Halloween meet up info / will have to wait and see what the fam are wanting to do but great to know that’s on xxx

Yeah I would definitely book FP's for every day just incase your plans need to change.

No problem that's fine Hope you have a lovely time, our paths may cross at some point! x

Looks like a good solid relaxed plan to me. I agree that dinosaur at AK is a good use of a FP. We have a few split group fastpasses like you are planning, this took a little extra time but worth it in the long run. Maybe check out a couple of the vacation planners for extra inspiration. I have one and Caitlinsmummy has a good one too.

We may cross paths too, will look out for you! 😂

Hi! Yep did it all - took me a while but got everything and added some random ones for days we haven’t got concrete plans for! I did a bit of juggling and adjusting times too. Worth trying to amend them as different time slots popped up quite often.

Weirdly the slinky dog ride didn’t show up on the app at all but was there on desktop version so worth being aware in case that happens to you

Good luck xx
