7. Check park hours and schedules
A huge part of planning is knowing the hours well in advance. For instance, if you are visiting during the slower season the parks tend to close earlier. So if you are more of a night owl you’ll want to spend more time researching Disney Springs and the Boardwalk to see what else there is to do after the park closes. During the busier seasons, you may want to double check the park opening times so you can determine how early you’d like to get there to beat some of the crowds.
