7 days until my FP+ selections, and I think I've finally decided.

[EmilyS90]

Feel free to critique or suggest something different. This is my first time back since 1998, and my fiance's first time back since 2009. And our daughter's first time ever, so I'm obsessing over this quite a bit. We're going in the last week of May, which seems to have 6-7 level crowds according to Touring plans.

MK day 1
Anna and Elsa
7DMT
Space Mtn

MK day 2
BTMR
Splash Mtn
Haunted Mansion

Epcot
Soarin
Mission Space
Spaceship Earth

DHS
Toy Story Mania
Star Tours
Voyage of Lil Mermaid


We plan on rope dropping super popular attractions like Peter Pan and Test Track.

anything you'd change?

Only to say have a backup for that Day 1 A&E. You probably won't get it....

Look like good choices to me.

Oh, yikes. We could probably do it on either of our MK days, hopefully something will be available. I haven't told my DD about meeting them yet, so if we don't get it, at least it won't be a huge disappointment.

I actually used that to decide my choices! Super helpful.

I'd do stand by for Haunted Mansion and add another fastpass for 7DMT.

Looks good aside from A&E the first day. Availability for A&E has been gone recently somewhere between 60+2 and 60+5. My plan would be to do your second MK day as you LAST day of the trip and get in as soon as your window opens and book that day first. If that doesn't work and you really want A&E I would be rope dropping that one.

I've been considering swapping my second MK day with our Epcot day, which is on our last day. The only thing stopping me is our crystal palace ADR before the park opens....the only time available for it on our last day is like 10:30am. Can't decide if breakfast AFTER park opening would be worth it, or if we should skip it altogether.

Personally, unless your crew are huge breakfast fans or huge Winnie the Pooh fans, I wouldn't do an AFTER park opening ADR for Crystal Palace. I feel it takes up too much time that you could be doing other things.

 

[Gr8t Fan]

Definitely keep the option of swapping your last day to MK open, because A&E can be hard to get even at 60 days out.

I would agree with not using FP on Haunted Mansion and try for another 7D. We just got back and even with crowd level 8 (and it felt like it!) By doing rope drop for 8:00 opening, we were able to hit Haunted Mansion by about 10:00 with no wait (one day was 10 min wait about same time). Afternoons it jumped alot, so hit it mid morning and then use your FP's for after that time frame.
We were even able to do Big Thunder with about 10 min wait about that time! And by afternoon it was at 60 min wait. I wouldn't chance that one, but HM, I don't think you'd have a problem.

Good point here because 7DMT is the next toughest FP after A&E!
