3 Days Only - What park to skip First Thing Morning?

[Catrin]

HI everyone,

We are going to be in WDW Labor Day Weekend - arriving late Thursday PM and leaving Monday morning - staying at the Poly. SO we only really have THREE days - for four parks.

My question is about all four parks - we have something we would like to do in each -
AK - EE
MGM - RnRC and ToT
Epcot - Soarin
MK - SM, Splash Mtn, etc.

WE plan on being at one park each day for opening - which park would you SKIP being there first thing?
I know how important it is to get there - doing major rides and leaving after lunch. We have ADR's most nights for dinner.

Experiences? Help?

For years our plan has been to hit a park other than Epcot early, get in the attractions we wanted to do, then hop to Epcot when the 'early' park got crowded, usually around 1 pm give or take. This way we hit all the parks at least once and we spend a relaxing afternoon/evening each day in WS and FW which seem to absorb crowds better than the other three. So, IMHO, hit AK, MGM & MK early then use the rest of each day to do WS/FW in a leisurely way.

I would skip the one for the morning that will be open the latest during your trip. Usually AK closes fairly early, so that would probably eliminate that park as one that you could skip in the morning.

Saturday is EMH AM for MGM ... so I would hit MGM for that first hour (8-9) in the AM to ride TOT and RRC and then head over to EPCOT trying to get there before 10am and getting a FP for Soarin'.

You can always go back to MGM later on another to hit the less popular attractions.

Maybe it AK early and hopefully be finished by noon and then do either the WS or Future World at Epcot that evening? Hopefully,you'll be able to hit MK and MGM the other two days?

I would skip Epcot in the morning. If you go there later in the day, remember that most of the big attractions in the Future World section are open much later that 7pm, even if the park hours don't show it.
