AK touring plan with pandora - thoughts?

[disneydad1]

please offer feedback on this with an early AM arrival to be in front of lines for rope drop on Wednesday, 5/31:

1. na'vi river journey
2. expedition everest
3. dinosaur
4. primeval twirl
5. triceratops spin
6. FP Kilimanjaro safari
7. FP flight of the banshee
8. FP kali river rapids

leave for break; return for late shows, rivers of light

Do you think we can be done with Dinoland by noon-ish?

Your biggest uncertainty is obviously NRJ. Rope drop and then standby for NRJ could mean 10 minutes or 2 hours depending on how crowded it is for RD and when you arrive.

All that being said, even with a 2 hour wait for NRJ it is hard to imagine you not finishing this by noon. EE could be an hour wait by 10AM (can you use single rider in a pinch)? Dinosaur might be 30-40 minutes. In the worst case you could skip Primeval Whirl and the Tric Spin ride.

also we re probably looking at an increase of 5-10 minutes for each ride
so if EE is typically 30 minutes by 10:00 it will probably be 40 minutes this summer

Try for a FastPass+ for Na'vi River Journey. Onsite 60 days from arrival; offsite 30 days from arrival.

If you want to be toward the front of the lines for rope drop then I'd make sure to be there no less than 90 min prior to opening. With Pandora just opening I can see people getting there 2 hours or more to wait

They have a FP for flight of the Banshee. You can't FP both Pandora rides

Yes, as CAS pointed out above, your whole plan depends on how early you get there and how front of the line you are. Looks like a fun plan.

thanks for your thoughts - we can only FP 1 Pandora ride - doing the one that i'm guessing will be more popular - we plan on being obnoxiously early - hadn't quite though an hr and a half, but we could make that happen.

The only thing i would consider is the order you use Fastpasses to avoid extra walking back and forth, if possible.
Dinoland to Safari(Africa) then to Pandora for Flight of the Banshee, then to Kali (Asia) Then leaving park.
That is a good bit of walking.

That and aren't the FP too close together? You can't overlap them.
