[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve been putting off Disney until my kids are old enough to remember and enjoy it because I only plan on doing it once more. We are big amusement park enthusiasts and definitely planners, but the last time I was at Disney pre-COVID it all required too much staring at the phone to enjoy. Sounds like it’s even worse now.

I feel like when I go to other parks, it’s enough to avoid the peak times, come up with a general game plan for the popular rides, and hit up the food lines in advance of usual meal times. Disney requires all of this and ongoing active management throughout the day. They’ve taken a lot of the happiness and spontaneity that makes a magical trip. [/quote]

what other amusement parks do you all like? we've done DW and DL and Universal hollywood - looking for other parks.[/quote]

My kids like Hershey a lot. It's close and there isn't a lot of advance planning that you need to do. If you have the money to swing it, Universal Orlando is pretty awesome if you get the unlimited express pass.[/quote]

We enjoyed Universal a lot but it does not compare to Disney. Way fewer rides and many of them are just screens/motion simulators. The Harry Potter stuff was very cool. But it just doesn't take that long to see all of it. Their upscale hotels are nicer than Disney's, I'll give them that. [/quote]
