4th FP, MK. This list Accurate?

[nat8199]

I am having a major Disney craving so I am currently messing with our Touring Plans for our September trip.

While researching which attractions to use our FP+ on, I found the following list. TPs says that these attractions have a good availability for a 4th FP through out the day. Any thoughts or experiences?

Mad Tea Party
Barnstormer
Winnie the Pooh
it’s a small world
Magic Carpets
Under the Sea
Town Square Tinker Bell
Haunted Mansion
Buzz Lightyear
Dumbo
PhilharMagic
Jungle Cruise
Tomorrowland Speedway
Laugh Floor

In following this list our plan for one of our MK days would be to RD for Splash and BTMR, with a FP+ for BTMR for extra rides. Then have 10am and 11am FP+ for Pirates and Peter Pan. I would then hope to get 4th and 5th FP+ for Haunted Mansion and Jungle Cruise.

Is this possible?

Totally possible. many of the rides on the list will have short SB waits anyway, but haunted Mansion and Jungle Cruise can get long & will be a good 4th & 5th choice. I might put your BTMRR fastpass later (looks like yo're planning it early, 9ish?) because lines won't be long yet and I think it's kind of a waste to use one of your first FPs when lines aren't yet long, just in hopes of getting a good FP for something else later. . . . Just one take, though, I don't try very hard to accumulate extra FPs.

I was thinking about not using it then, but I will be traveling with two 4.5yos, so I was worried that if they wanted to ride BTMR more than once after Splash we might want to use a FP+. Even a 20min wait might be long with them in tow.

I guess if the line is really short, though, I could just switch it to something later? I cannot decide what to do.

I think that by traveling in Sept and using your 3 FP+ before noon, you'd have a good chance of getting a 4th or 5th FP+ for a headliner, or any of the things on your list.

You,ve got a good reason for wanting it early and, yes, if you find short lines you can just decide to switch it. One warning - I found the app very spotty in the parks. If yo're really dependent on the ability to switch things on the app, you *may* find yourself frustrated if experiencing a glitch (many people report no problems, though) I think some people find better luck using their phones browser and using the web site - a good idea to have both options available!

I agree that the 4th FP list makes sense.

I would stick with your plan of early FPs and going for 4th and 5th passes. You should easily have your pick from the list in September.

We found in Hollywood Studios during the first week of December we were able to get headliners (RnR rollercoaster or TOT, but not Toy Story) as our 4th FP.

Have a great time planning!
