Can someone advise me as to whether these MK FPs are do-able?

[Winifred Eleanor]

I feel like this is all over the place, & we're criss-crossing the park in an un-efficient & possibly impossible way. I am not familiar with how easy it is to get to & from different locations within MK.

Pirate's League appt (Adventureland) - 9:15
7 Dwarfs Mine Train FP (Fantasyland) - 9:55-10:55
Tomorrowland Speedway FP (Tomorrowland) - 10:55-11:55
Enchanted Tales w/ Belle FP (Fantasyland) - 12:30-1:30

Thanks for any input!

It will take maybe 10 mintues to get from Adventureland to 7 Dwarfs Mine Train, but it's not very far from there to the Speedway and then back to Enchanted Tales. True, the Speedway is one direction from 7 Dwarfs, and then you'll backtrack to Enchanted Tales which is the other direction from 7 Dwarfs, but it won't entail much walking.

They aren't all over the place. You have 2 in fantasyland and speedway is close to fantasyland, pretty close to 7DMT. I'm not sure I would necessarily choose it for one of my first 3 FPs, but that's not what you asked. Geographically, I think you are fine.

Well now you've got me wondering! Haha. Are you referring to Speedway as not 1 of your 1st 3 FPs? What would you put in front of it? (Would obviously love the Elsa/Anna meet, but I didn't get that lucky.)

Speedway is usually still available as a 4th or later FP, so yes, I would choose something else. Tell me these things...Are there kids in your party? Girls or boys? What ages? Any interest in roller coasters? Do you have another day at MK with FPs? If so, what are they?

Oh my gosh, I'm so excited to have your help!!!

OUR PARTY:
Me, my husband, my mom
2 daughters (5 & 3)

We are going to MK a different day, here is our FP schedule:
Big Thunder Mt. RR - 11:35
Peter Pan's Flight - 1:20
Meet Cinderella & Rapunzel @ Fairytale Hall - 2:50

Roller coasters are great. But it's going to come down to the wire whether my 3-year-old will be 40" by the time of our trip. We will be experimenting with lifts. Kidding. Maybe.

Well that isn't an awful pick in your situation! Peter Pan and Cinderella are the major ones, and you have that covered! I really think I would do an Ariel FP before speedway if they are interested. It MAY still be available as a 4th but I see speedway more often. I would do 7DMT FP, tea cups, dumbo, barnstormer, meet Ariel FP, under the sea ride, meet gaston if he's out there and there's time, and then belle FP. And then go to mickeys philharmagic kiosk and see if speedway is available for 4th. If so, get it and then change the time to the nearest available after lunch (assuming you are ready to eat) If there's still a wait after you eat, see the philharmagic show and ride the carousel as time fillers. If you want to keep the speedway FP, that certainly is not a terrible thing. There are a lot of different ways to look at it all!

Alright I took your advice and I traded Speedway for Meeting Ariel @ 11:10. We have a lunch ADR at Cinderella's Royal Table @ 2:05 that day.

Okay, can I ask you another question? I'm freaking out that we're going to WDW, and my daughters might not get to meet Elsa & Anna. To try to still get a FP, am I going about it correctly with these steps:
- modify FP
- make new FP or replace existing
- select just 1 person
- see if meeting A&E is available
If it is, snag it, then try to copy the rest of my party???

What are my chances, if we get to the park an hour before it opens, stand on the very right side, & book it to fairytale hall, of getting a decent wait time?

if you want to meet A and E then you need to 1 try and get it for every one if you can not do that then do not do it for just 1 personas they may only have 1 available and then you are stuck. if you have 2 days at the MK then you get there about 30 minutes before rope drop ( when the park opens) if not earlier and you go straight to A and E even if you do not walk fast the line should only be 30 to 45 minutes. also during the fire works it tends to be a little shorter just keep looking at MDE app you can even stand out side and watch the fire works and then head in right after if the park is still open after.

I Would definitely keep trying to get a FP, but you definitely can meet them without one. Either go straight there at rope drop or try to get a breakfast at Be Our Guest before the park opens (unless of course it's an 8:00 open day). Some people think it's silly to pay more (for breakfast) just to get in early. Only you would known if it's worth it. You would have to keep checking pretty often for the breakfast too. Things seem to open up the week before or even day before as people change/finalize their plans so keep looking for that FP. Good luck!

Y'all are so awesome. Thank you so much for the help! This is crazy overwhelming but crazy exciting. I think I'm possibly more excited for this trip than for my own wedding.

1 more question. (I hope.) If someone in our party (3 adults 2 kids) is able to get to A&E super speedy at rope drop on their own, is the rest of the party, that maybe wasn't as fast, able to join the person where they got in line? Or is that a big no no?

Well, you will find differing opinions on this. It will really depend on who all this speedy person is able to get in front of while waiting for you guys and what their thoughts are about it. Let me just say that parents can be very passionate about this A&E meet, so you may encounter some strong opposition. It would make me so uncomfortable while waiting because I can't stand confrontation. If you ended up with enough people fussing about it, you may have to move even further back than you would have been had you all arrived together since the line forms so quickly. And it will depend on the CM there as to what his/her opinion would be. You could certainly have him/her go ahead and ask the CM and go from there. I really think if you get close to the front of the rope drop crowd, your wait won't be terrible.
