We took two day pass. We reached the gates by 10 am and got in line to meet Donald Duck as Mickey Mouse line was longer. I had read in earlier reviews to not waste time since characters are available inside but Mickey and Minnie are only in Town Hall so I would recommend run and first get in line for their photo op.then get your fast track ticket and plan rest of your rides. It was my sons bday and most of crew wished him happy birthday. He was truly elated with this gesture. Not to miss is the Jedi training, lion king show and the wondrous book show. Best ride according to me is mystic manor and iron man ride. Parades were great ..the night parade better than day parade...the finale fireworks ...world class....truly happiest place on earth...
