Disney Tips going Spring Break

Any tips or suggestions for going that week? There are 2 families... 2 almost 9 year olds, a 6 and 5 year old.
We are staying off property. I am trying to get dining reservations, but nothing is open yet.

So far we have the tickets, place and renting a house for the families. Nothing else.

Any suggestions? Thanks

did you make any fast passes yet? you're probably getting close to that window! I think that will make a big difference! and definitely keep trying for the dining- i've gotten some even the night before. plus, there are a ton of really good quick service places, so you should be fine with that...

this. It's Spring break so it'll be crowded. Try to get as many meals in so you can see characters and def do fast passes for the wait.

Dining is 120 days before so you should be able to do that now. FP is 30 days if your staying off Property

yes - dining is open - everything is just booked already for that week. that's why you have to keep trying a few times a day, hopefully some will drop something and you can scoop it up

I would check out Kenny the Pirate's crowd calendar, and base the parks you visit on that. It's seriously wall to wall people on Spring Break....like CRAZY busy!! So following his strategy by going to the green or yellow parks for that day will ease the pain Chat Icon

Also, make your fast passes the second you can. It's highly unlikely you will get the Pandora rides at this point because on site guests have likely snatched them all up, but I would try and keep checking back!

Also, download the My Disney Experience app, and you can order your quick service food from it. Beats waiting in line

Also, I would leave your rental place about 2 hours before the Magic Kingdom opens, since there is a lot of hoopla to go through to get to the park. It's not like when you stay on site and the bus drops you off right at the gate. You have to park, possibly take the tram, then get on the bus or the monorail, then go to the park.
