AK 8AM EMH, Everest after Navi River Journey

[HatboxHaint]

the plan:

8AM - Navi River Journey then head to EE and ride it until the wait grows to 10 to 20min.



Attempting this in september...how many EE rides do you think I can get with low waits?

 

[Cuchman]

Don't forget single rider.....You can probably ride EE all day with less than 20 min waits in that line.

I rode single rider line on trip in August - 8 mins from entering the line till I stepped off the ride. It was mid day too!
It was fantastic!! I no longer make FP for it. We ride single rider when ever we are there

 

[Delirium]

We've ridden 3 times with zero wait first thing in the morning before. And, 4 times with zero wait 15 minutes before park close. This was in October.

My husband and I did this once in September (but after KS since obviously Pandora wasn't a thing then) and got like 3 or 4 rides in with no wait.

 

[Mickey's Best Girl]

I think with Pandora insanity you'll get quite a few rides in even in standby.

Not the same situation but last October we rode from 730 - 830pm continuously for the last hour of the day. And boy did we have headaches the next morning (college days flashback ). Totally worth it.

We got to Everest at 8:40 two weeks ago, on a day with an 8:00 opening. We rode it three times in a row with no wait at all -- just walked straight through to the loading platform. It was still a walk-on after our third time, but we moved on to other rides. I'm sure it would have been no more than a 5 minute wait for a while. Everybody goes to Pandora first, and then moves on to Africa before the crowds really hit Asia and Dinoland.

That's what I'm talking about!

Hmmm....I was planning to go straight to Everest on an EMH morning, ride until we are sick or 845am, then head to the safari ahead of the rope drop crowd. I wonder if I should do the reverse. Safari first, then multiple Everest rides.

I think I would FP Safari since it takes so much time it's not as repeatable as Everest. all the advice says animals are best firs thing, but I'd rather take my chances with the animals and get more rides in at EE. I'm going to NRJ first because I want the FoP FP+.

Not an option. No more Safari FP on my day, Aug 28. No more Dinosaur either. That's actually a little worrisome to me.

This was for a 7am EMH, but last week we did FoP, NRJ, and then headed to EE after a bathroom break, so about 8am. I would say you could ride for at least an hour without any wait hitting only NRJ first. We decided to move on after 2 rides but there was zero wait either time.

On the flip side, prior to the PM EMH, we arrived at EE to a posted 40 minute wait. I figured it was to discourage crowds and I was right. It was more of a walkon than I have ever seen. We didn't even have to slow down for people in the queue. We literally walked straight on twice.

wow yeah that is scary

 

[IrishNYC]

I'm planning on 3-4 on during our September trip. I plan to hit Na'vi, and then FOP once if the line isn't more than 30 minutes during EMH, then off to EE. 4 rides is my limit.

I was trying to move some FP's before my trip, and had the same problem with Dinosaur and Safari being unavailable, but plenty of FP's available for Everest. Then, a couple of weeks later, there were tons of times open for both of them. I'm not sure if it was a glitch or Disney's tinkering with distribution, but I'd keep checking. There's a good chance something will open up.

I'll hope for the same. It's not even 30 days out yet.

Do you have a FP for FOP? If not, it won't be a 30 min wait after NRJ. More likely to be 130 min. You should hit FOP first and get there an hour before EMH.

I'm planning my FOP FP for later in the evening, that's why I don't really care if there's a longer wait during EMH.
