Cory’s October WDW trip w/Premier Pass - PREP 536

In this episode, I talk with Cory before and after his October Disney World trip with his wife and three kids, including one last visit before their youngest turned 3. A big focus of this trip was Lightning Lane Premier Pass. Cory used it at both Magic Kingdom and EPCOT, and we get into whether he thought the high price was actually worth it, including why he felt it worked extremely well at Magic Kingdom but would make a different choice at EPCOT next time. We also talk about their first stay in a 1-bedroom villa at Old Key West, using Rider Switch with a toddler, an 8-year-old who loves thrill rides, lots of park hopping, and how a rental car they didn’t expect to use much ended up becoming very useful. Of course, not everything went according to plan. Heavy rain affected multiple park days, attractions went down, and a Big Thunder Mountain breakdown even led to part of the family being evacuated from the ride. By the end of the trip, Cory had some clear opinions about Premier Pass, where it offers the most value, and what he would change on a future trip. He also shares the total cost of this five-night vacation, including flights, Park Hoppers, dining, Lightning Lanes, Premier Passes, rental car, and more.
