Gave up a PP Fastpass for a Wishes FP. Hoping to catch PP at rope drop at least one morning. What is the best/quickest route to get to Peter Pan at rope drop? TIA!
 

Walk casually up main street and through the castle. Enjoy the scenery, take your time. 98% of the people at RD will be rushing to get to 7DMT and A&E, PP will be a walk on for a little while.

This. We did this on 2/24 and rode PP twice with little or no wait.

Great tip! I am going to follow this as well! :)

I was hoping for this. I made personalized touring plans, and they are trying to tell me that Peter Pan will be a 15 minute wait at Rope Drop (they also tell me that TSMM, Soarin' and TT will be 30 minute waits at RD). I figured they were WAY over estimating the times (and WAY underestimating where I'll be in the RD crowd!).

A 15 minute posted time at PP is a "walk on". Or any attraction. My philosophy is if listed wait time is 20 or less, jump in line!

I had the same problem with my personalized plans from Touringplans. They seem to WAY overestimate the wait times at RD. Even during spring break, we were able to ride PP twice at RD without waiting -- and that was even taking extra time in line to enjoy the (fabulous) new PP queue. We also did TSMM and Soarin at RD with no wait last week.

On 9:00am opening days, MK has been opening around 8:45-8:50 -- and HS is the same -- which will put you even further ahead of TP's plans.
 
Op here. We've done it twice-- we went straight through the castle as suggested. On and off with no wait. We also did Test Track at Epcot at rope drop, and there was a wait for that-- of course, part of the "wait" is spent designing your car, but we waited in line at least 10 minutes before that.

Thanks for the update, this will be our MK strategy too for PP
