When I get hungry at MK I walk towards the front of the park, hang a right, get on the monorail, and go to Epcot. 😂

[@CourtneyNichols610]

I would love to see an updated $3,000 or $5,000 trip to Disney World video with updated pricing to see examples of what different trip styles may accomplish within a set budget! The last videos like this were awesome but are a bit older and prices sure have changed, it would be great to set expectations of what a trip may look like within a defined budget!

[@patm95]

She won’t do it because it would look bad for Disney. Prices have skyrocketed. We have a family of 4 and it’s going to cost us about 7k this year not counting airfare. For 6 days. That’s staying on property and eating Disney food. Two years ago I took 7 people for 6 days for less than 9k.

[@toastgalaxy776]

@@patm95personnaly for 2 we got great deals, for park tickets and hotel 7 days we paid like 1800$ total

[@MrMaxRebos]

I am a party of two. Costing over $3500 for Sunday to saturday

[@kylehilfiker917]

Me and my wife did a Monday/Saturday trip for just under 4k in 2023 for Halloweekend... Not counting airfare but that wasn't horrible. If you are okay with All-Star rooms and taking the bus systems most of the time, we were able to keep it reasonable. It just requires a lot of preparation and know-how and that's not everyone's strength. Luckily, my wife grew up with a family that went almost every year during her childhood! 😆

[@Jayswitch24]

My wife and I did a 7 day trip for 3800 in 2022. We stayed at shades of green and had 5 day park hopper military discounted tickets. Now I would imagine for 2 or more kids you’re looking at the 5k range or more imo. We’re going back in July 2025 but this time we’re trying to be under 3k for 6 days. I do agree thought, the prices are crazy.

[@elainehill5931]

We plan a 6 day trip this summer. I have the feeling it’s going to be our last for a while since Epic Universe opens next year. And what new things Disney has “planned” don’t excite us much.

[@rodrigorocha2935]

7 days to Orlando! can't wait for it anymore!

[@kenyak2959]

Noooo I loveeeee tough to be a bug! I remember me and my kiddo did that our first trip and the part that the “bug” is under your butt made him JUMPPPP so high!!!! It was hilarious 😅😅😅😅

[@lizciampa]

We also LOVE tough to be a bug. What a hoot!

[@DFBGuide]

You definitely either love it or hate it! HAHAHA!

[@lizciampa]

@@DFBGuide True!!

[@rb5078]

I’m so sad about It’s Tough to be a Bug and Dinosaur leaving. What fantastic and unique attractions. Disney always tones down or removes their scarier attractions and it’s such a shame. Lots of kids like that kind of things as do adults. That’s the main reason I’m more of a Universal fan personally.

[@donnajohnson4459]

Flying in from Seattle, I prefer to get to hotel late afternoon, early evening. Room is ready, time to decompress after a day off travel. Get room organized, go for dinner and can get up next am ready to go!

[@DebiDan]

Same! We get in mid afternoon and relax. We also leave early evening. Gives us time to just wake up without an alarm and relax before our flight home.

[@nubiaferr]

That's perfect! I'll be staying 11 nights in may with a 7-days park ticket, can't wait!

[@thidaratwongba516]

[@jenngurr]

AJ and gang, our family loves your videos! They're SO helpful, SO informative, and SO entertaining! We've been watching for a few months now as we get ready for our trip. Thank you!

[@TravelwithTravelarii]

Magical Tips! Just stumbled upon this gem for planning a Disney World trip! AJ's insights are gold - from maximizing rides to dining recommendations. The QR code for planning worksheets is a game-changer!

[@maxpowr90]

My brother (who makes magic) refuses to do Disney World longer than 5 days. If you want to do a pool/non-park day, it should be the day you arrive. Especially if you stay at a deluxe resort, you're basically throwing away $400+ for the privilege of swimming, if you're not visiting a park.

[@Matt_Hatt3r]

I think EVERY ride in WDW should have a virtual queue if the standby line is greater than 30 minutes. I realize having a lot of guests in line will reduce the crowds in walking paths, but I'd so much rather walk around and explore other things while waiting for my group to be called than to wait in a 60+ minute line.

[@staceybextel4564]

Love this style of video AJ, very unique!

[@jeffaltier5582]

If I'm staying for 6 days, I feel that MK is the perfect park to do over 2 of them. There is simply too much to do in one day.

[@melk8220]

Same with me

[@richardmercer2337]

Actually, I would gladly settle for "semi-ultimate"... and you are NOT an "old lady" AJ! (That would make me truly ancient!)

[@leq6992]

loved our 8-night, 6 park-day trip in December. But, I dont plan on doing an extended stay at Disney World again until they either add numerous new attractions, lands, or even a 5th gate. And it's not looking promising on any of those fronts any time soon. Going for extended stays in 2019 and then again in 2023, the sticker shock between the 2 trips was absurd.

[@nixedd]

Just went to Disney for the first time ever with my wife a two daughter Jan 10-17 and now I’m hooked thanks for the years of info and tips you guys help so much. Now wife and I have already planed are next vacation 🎉

We got 7 days planned for June! Little ones can’t wait! Like others said, we are probably skipping Disney next year so we can go to the new additions to Universal. Greetings from Texas!

[@RedSoxDad19]

No mention of Casey's Corner? We always love stopping by and grabbing the special dog, get snack for the family! We also love going to the Food & Wine Festival and grazing, HOPING it happens during our trip this year, first week of August!

[@justinschrank4806]

We always arrive around 10am from our flight, have them hold our luggage, then go straight to AK. It's a good first day park when you can't get a super early start.

[@greysonrome8727]

I remember going to Liberty Tree Tavern when it still had Character dining. We got a group picture with all the Characters that were at the Restaurant!

[@KingZee1]

perfect video..booked 6 days for April!

[@jbmiller3280]

My last trip in 2022 was just a few months before lightning lanes and Genie + fancy ride upcharging and standby line freezing changed everything. Park hopping is expensive but it really opens up many options for early dinners at Epcot with the ability to go back for MK fireworks.

[@DFBGuide]

Yep -- I love that freedom to be a bit more spontaneous, too.

[@gabriellalegault2048]

Im going in two weeks! Four nights in disney plus extra evening hours and other 3 days for seaworld and universal studios! First time since my toddler days for my Quincinera trip so excited!!!

We were just there in December and plan on going back December 2025 but this video is really making me want to move the trip up a few months. Damn u DFB lol

[@BrandonIslander]

We are doing a shorter 5 day trip this year. We stayed 10 days last year and did everything multiple times. So no rest day on our 5 day trip, we will do Magic Kingdom twice and the other parks once each

[@rmwbear]

I would love to see a video of Disney work plus cruise in one trip :)

[@madiemaelou]

We like to got 8 nights with 6 day park hopper tickets. 3 days then a rest day then 3 days. We stay at Value or Moderate resorts and never plan anything for arrival or departure day so we don’t risk delays upsetting the flow.

[@adamdevries8121]

Were so happy we found your channel,thanks for posting this. Its very helpful. We have a question, Did you do a meal plane during this 6day stay? what resort did you stay in? is there a download of A travel itinerary that you have for this 6day stay that we can get? sorry for all these questions hope to hear back.

Sweet. I will have 5 days this year, so this might help a lot

[@chriswhiteauditions]

Winnie the Pooh Fans: You may be able to meet Pooh at Christopher Robbin's Room [the entrance is in the very back of the UK Pavilion]. EPCOT is underrated for its character meet-n-greet options. I feel like lines to meet most characters are shorter at EPCOT than in other parks.

[@racheljackson4428]

and let's not forget about The Seas with Nemo and Friends Themed Queue is Underrated too.

AJ, how did you know our schedule? Almost the exact same for us except we are going to switch AK for HS since we will be there during the week of Christmas in 2025 and will eat at the 50's diner on Christmas day. Love you guys.

[@AndreJungermann]

I did a 5 day stint in 2023 and wish I had one more day. Epcot to start on a Monday. Ease into the rides / attractions, great food and nice Firework show. Tuesday/2nd day was MGM. More hustle and bustle with rides and packed park. Also get to end it with Fantasmic. Wednesday was Disney Springs, hotel hoping and Boardwalk. Thursday was Universal (both parks, which is a lot and ramped up thrills and rides). Friday was Animal Kingdom in the morning (both Avatar rides and Everest) before closing it out at MK and Happily Ever After to end the trip. I think MK first for people who never have had their Disney vacation but I personally believe it's the best last day park.

[@jennaglaski2769]

Do you guys have a video on HOW to do all the rides at magic kingdom in one day!?!

[@jennaglaski2769]

7 day Honeymoon planned for June!!!

[@jacitucci]

How exciting! Where are you staying? 😊

[@gs7406]

Hollywood Studios after hours event was without a doubt the ULTIMATE way to visit that park. Slinky dog dash was 120 mins wait in the day. For me? WALK ON Star Wars RoR was 100 mins wait in the day. For me? WALK ON Runaway Railway was 80 mins wait in the day. For me? WALK ON Smugglers Run was 60 mins wait in the day. For me? WALK ON If that is not the ultimate, well I don't know what is. We went on everything twice, with no queues, and it worked out to be about 20 hours of queuing if we'd of done it in the day.

[@melk8220]

First would never take a break day. I'm there for the parks. Also I always end my trip with a 2nd day at magic Kingdom. Just want to see the castle one last time.

[@Serenaskywalker]

When I was in line for its a small world at Disney world a couple people held up those cutouts with those things telling the people in line to do things and I did them.I also like a quick-survice restaurant that I don’t remember the name of so I’m just gonna call it ye old Pinocchio restaurant

[@Jayswitch24]

The wife and I are going back in July 2025 and we’re doing either 6 or 7 days but only 4 days at the parks. I’ve learned I need at least a day or two of hotel rest on the feet after my last visit lol .

(lucky to see EPCOT Forever for my 50th birthday in November) and FoF Parade. I daw most shows I'm interested the most like Friendship Faire, Vacation Fun, and some other shows like Lightning MfQueen and 2 DHS Projection Shows I hadn't had time for, and met some old and new characters. Who knows when I could take a next Disney vacation? Could be after years waiting.

For my AK day, I’d get Lightning Lane for the Na’vi River Journey because that line is BORING. With Expedition Everest and Flight of Passage, you at least have some things to look at and interact with, they’re almost a primer for the ride. NRJ, the line is just that - a line, and the highlight of the line is the water bottle filling station deep into the line.

@@dfbbreea thanks!

[@chriswhiteauditions]

Of all the Disney parks, Animal Kingdom has the most relaxing vibe and closes the earliest [between 6pm and 8pm depending on the time of year]. In my opinion it's helpful to schedule AK for the first day of your visit [to kind of ease your way into the Disney crowds], or for a later day in your trip when you need a slower pace [like the day after Magic Kingdom or Hollywood Studios]. Like Brea said, there's no wrong way to line up your trip's park order!
