Hi Ann,
Welcome to planDisney!
Looking at your arrival date makes me happy because you are visiting at my favorite time of year - during the
Holidays at Walt Disney World Resort! If you are able to book a reservation at that time for
Cinderella's Royal Table, you should be able to leave directly after dinner and head straight out of the park. Dining availability is not yet visible for the dates of your visit, but do keep a close eye on it. You may have to make a reservation earlier in the day or on another day if availability is limited.
As you continue to make plans, if you have not yet considered it and your dates coincide, get tickets for
Disney Jollywood Nights. My family loves to try new experiences during each visit and are hoping we can experience this special event when we go in December! Of course, like you, we will need to keep an eye on our
advanced reservation booking window to be sure we make those reservations as soon as we can!
Ann, I do have a few other tips. Consider booking a breakfast reservation at Cinderella's Royal Table. We love to get the earliest reservation time so that we can enter Magic Kingdom before the crowds descend. And, the prices for the
breakfast menu are typically better for my family's budget. Consider
Memory Maker as well. It will give you access to the digital downloads of the photos taken with Disney Photopass Service® photographers. The photos are truly such an important part of our visit - when our girls were younger, I used them to create our photo books. In the meantime, keep up the
practically perfect planning!
Magic and memories,
Donyell
