We're going to DLP for two nights, three days from May 14-16, staying at Newport Bay, woot woot! We're WDW veterans but this is our first trip to DLP. We are two adults and a theme park savvy 10-year-old.
We have the standard half-board as part of the spring deal. This includes breakfast buffet at our hotel.
My understanding is that you have to book a time slot when you check in. I assume the earliest (7:30am) time slot is usually the first to go? How likely are we to get it?
I was thinking of booking the last time slot (10:30am) so we could attend EMH, ride a few popular rides while it's still early, then hoof it back to Newport Bay for a late brunch. This way we can skip lunch and use the Half-Board for our dinner.
But will this thwart our chances of getting on the rides we want without long waits? We are not purchasing fast pass, just using our old paper FP WDW strategy (EMH, grab a FP for a popular ride, get into queues early).
