I mainly go to MK to see the attractions DLR doesn't have or no longer has, like Carousel of Progress, Peoplemover, Country Bears, and the WDW Hall of Presidents is so great because it has all the presidents, not just Lincoln.
Country bears is a sit down show with animatronics like enchanted tiki room or carousel of progress.Yes Carousel and People Mover. Is Country Bears a ride? But other than that it seems like the other rides are the same?

You're just asking about attractions in the Magic Kingdom, right? In addition to what already has been suggested, maybe Splash Mountain and Big Thunder? I don't go on Splash Mountain very often because I don't like getting wet (I know, I'm weird), but the seating is different and I think there might be some differences in the ride. While the overall ride experience for Big Thunder is similar, the track configuration is different.Date seems to be April 26-29, I’m thinking of going to MK on a busier day because I’m assuming most rides are the same as Disneyland so ride priority is lower therefore not as pressured to do everything there. Priorities are 7 Dwarves, Haunted Mansion, Jungle Cruise. Are there any other rides that are worth the difference/better and not worse than Disneyland?

Pirates is different and, having been on both, IMO, the Disneyland version is better. I won't comment on the differences because I don't want to 'spoil' it for those who don't know. That being said, I would suggest going on Pirates at WDW, especially if the queue is short, just because I think it's fun to see all the variations of an attraction in the different parks.Space mountain maybe? Seating is in a straight line instead of side by side. Pirates is different too but my understanding is the Disneyland version is far superior. I’ve yet to make it to Disneyland so can’t comment on the differences.
I know it sounds daft but try and hit Peter Pans Flight early , the queue is really fun and much more involved than the DLR versionDate seems to be April 26-29, I’m thinking of going to MK on a busier day because I’m assuming most rides are the same as Disneyland so ride priority is lower therefore not as pressured to do everything there.

It's a really fun musical showCountry bears is a sit down show with animatronics like enchanted tiki room or carousel of progress.
No Indy in WDW, our version of Indy is actually dinosaur at animal kingdom. Same ride mechanisms from my understanding but obviously completely different lol.Wow thanks for all the insight. I will definitely now go on Peter Pan for the line. I heard Indy may have some differences?

NO New Orleans Square, no Indiana Jones, no Storybook ride, no Galaxy's Edge (it's in the Studios) and most rides are different.Wow thanks for all the insight. I will definitely now go on Peter Pan for the line. I heard Indy may have some differences?

Disney springs is a mile long. The east side (market place) is where the majority of the Disney stores are located, including the pin trader. You can spend hours in the world of Disney store (and a lot of money)!Hm thank you for the insight. We might have to do AK and HS full day and possibly do EPCOT the day we arrive and we’re going to just spend in Disney Springs. Maybe spend some time at Disney Springs and then EPCOT? How big is Disney Springs?

If you're a big star wars fan you'll need to spend a whole day at HS the detail of Black Spire is amazing.
Number one rule for visiting WDW parks, don't be in a hurry, be flexible, and do the things you enjoy!
SWGEs are practically identical so do the “different” attractions like ToT (as much as I love Guardians I also love Twilight Zone and the beginning part is different at DHS), Railway, Slinky, Aerosmith, etc.Experienced it at Disneyland so not a priority for us.
