So I am a total disney virgin - a 45 year old who has never been to disney anywhere in the world. My wife and I are going to tack a few days onto to a Europe trip and visit Disney (and a little bit of Paris - we have been to Paris before, so not necessarily looking for advice outside of Disney)
Out plan is to fly in from Copenhagen and stay near Châtelet les Halles so we have easy access to the train to CDG and Disney. Arrive on July 14 (I know that is Bastile day - so let me know if that will through any wrenches into my plan). Plan on going to Disney the 15 (Disneyland Park) and 17 (ticket to both the park and the studios) and 16th do Paris sightseeing). My questions (sorry there are a lot and probably total newbie questions)
1. Is there an advantage of buying tickets right when they are released? Didn't know if prices will go up/sell out?
2. Any reason to buy consecutive days vs two one day passes with a day inbetween from a cost perspective?
3. premier pass (fast pass?) - our daughter will be there a week before her 7th birthday - so some of the adventure type rides she will not go on, how much time will it save us on the other items? and roughtly how much does it cost? I hate to stand in lines, so willing to pay (within reason) to save on that.
4. Shows and parades - where can I find a schedule? Do we book seats for the shows in advance (even though included in the ticket? - if so, how and when?
5. Any other tips for someone that really never has had a desire to go to Disney, but want my daughter to enjoy it while she sees the magic in the princesses!
Thanks in advance!
