Aug. Trip Park Day Plan

[kcp6763]

I know EMH are not listed yet but I'm going off of what they have been traditionally. I'd like to plan so I know what ADRs to book in a month. We are going Aug. 4th-10th (Sun-Sat) but only doing parks Mon-Fri. due to travel. We have a 5 day park hopper. Here's what I have so far but some days could go either way.

Monday: AK for early EMH then park hop to HS later to see Fantasmic
Tuesday: HS for the day then park hop to Epcot for evening EMH
Wednesday: resort day but will go to MK later in the day and stay for EMH
Thursday: MK?
Friday: Epcot?

Could switch Thursday and Friday where both parks would have EMH in the am but the odds of us being at Epcot early Thursday are very low since we'll be out late Wed. I wouldn't mind the Friday EMH at MK though.

I've been looking at this for hours now and I just feel stuck. Since we have park hoppers I feel like we need to utilize them as well as some of the EMHs. I would love to look at suggestions for other strategies!

If you are interested in Slinky Dog Dash or Flight of Passage FPs, you'll need to move your AK and HS days to later in your trip for the best odds – or at least hop there later and make your FPs for those parks. Getting them at 60 and 60+1 is not impossible, but unlikely.

I'd try for AK later in the week too. You gotta ride FOP, it's awesome!! And going later in the week means you might have a better shot at getting fp's.

Both Pandora and TSL look beautiful at night too- so try to be at both when it’s dark also.

I'll just echo what the others have said, in that if Slinky Dog Dash, or Flight of Passage are important to you (and at the very least, Flight of Passage should be), you would be much better served by moving those parks as close to the end of your stay as possible, as those FP can be super difficult to get, and especially towards the beginning of your trip.
