We are checking in on Thanksgiving Day. My family is flying in and using
MDE. My parents are driving separately. Our flight is scheduled to arrive at MCO around 8:30 am. We have a 2:30 ADR at MBYBBQ (we also have a 5pm booked as well) for all 7 of us. My parents and my DS9 have the Pirates and Pals Fireworks Voyage embarking from Contemporary with an 8pm arrival time. Transportation, as well as potential post-meal character interactions, play a role into which ADR we keep and which we relaease. (For those familiar with MBYBBQ, the category 1 seating typically allows for exclusive character meet about an hour before schedule time - but since there are 3 shows going on that day at 2 hours long, instead of the usual one show only, there is no category 1 offered that day). Also, sincere there is no premier seating, we would like to be in line early enough to be near the front for the best view/interaction with our kids as possible (this is a complete surprise trip for them, where they won't even know until we get to the airport that morning). So, we have MDE to AoA, AoA to FW, and FW to Contemporary. Because of my folks' directional challenges, I will probably personally take the rest of my family back to AoA to get them settled in, then go back to Contemporary to meet up with my folks and DS9 and accompany them back to Pop, and then walk over the bridge with DS9 back to AoA.
How do I navigate all of this? Thoughts?
