I first want to thank Denise from Magical Journeys for helping my husband and myself with our upcoming Orlando trip to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. Denise has been a world of information and extremely helpful with making our reservations and tickets for the parks.
But a few questions please. We are staying on Universal property our whole trip due to the price being cheaper than Disney. We plan on doing 4 days in Disney and 4 days in Universal, which means driving to Disney on the 4 days there. So what is the best thing to do getting into the parks? How soon can we arrive to get into line for parking for the parks and especially would love to know the best way to get into the Magic Kingdom. I am going to assume the ferry is the best way to get there as it holds more people than the monorail does. I really want to get to the parks as soon as they open but don't want to get there too early and then made to turn around at the parking gates because we were too early.
My other question is regarding getting into the app to be selected for Rise of the Resistance. I've read that you can get on your app even if you are not in the park but then have also been told you can only do that if you are in the park. I think the day we are getting to Hollywood Studios (yes, I have already made reservations for each park the days we are there), the park doesn't open until 9 am but have been told to get into the app at 7 am to get reservations. So I would really appreciate step by step instructions as to what we need to do and the best way to do it. I have the app on my phone but my husband does not. It was suggested to me to also have him download the app so both of us can try for a spot into the ride.
I want to thank everyone in advance for any and all the advice you can give. Things are SO different than the last time I was at Disney. I'm not as worried about Universal since we are staying on property and have the fast passes and all that comes with staying on property. We have been planning and saving for this trip for a very long time and now that it's getting closer, I would love to know what to expect with these current conditions.
