Get to the park at rope drop!

I can't think of any single tip that has been more valuable over the years. Can you top that tip?
 

Go during the "value season". Then you wil not have to get up for rope drop.
 
Already sounds like it depends on your vaca style...which you'll enjoy more in good shoes.
 
Nope, rope drop was a huge advantage. This was our first time following that advice and it paid off big time. We got to every park at rope drop, and were done with most of the attractions in FW by noon, and were able to use the rest of the time at F&WF. We had two MK days and got there at rope drop both times - we were able to do all of Fantasyland, Toontown (including Fairies room), Tomorrowland and wander around Main Street and the castle area while having lunch, snack and sit-down meal, saw a show and two parades, and be done by the time Wishes started. Day 2 at MK we did rope drop again and finished all of Adventureland and Frontierland and went back to the hotel pool after having lunch.

We will never miss another rope drop! When my DD4 is a teenager, we will drag her sleeping butt out of bed! :lmao:
 
Coordinate dining reservations with park days--saves time when you don't have to park hop for a meal.

Don't be afraid to change plans mid stream.

Take a day to vegetate if possible--you can't do everything at disney in one vacation.
 
My favorite tip is "Stay to the left". Most people, being right handed, always move to their right without even thinking about it. Wherever there are multiple lilnes, moving to the left will almost always get you in a shorter line. Entering EPCOT one day, there were lines at all the gates. We walked as far left as we could and found almost nobody going in through the gates all the way on that side. Human nature can be a strange thing.
 
My best tip is to be at the park at rope drop, or use Fast Pass. It always amazes me how many people don't know what Fast Pass is.
 
Use EMH mornings. Getting there early will save you loads of time later.

Also, ask for free ice water instead of soda--saves you $ and calories.
 
Nope, you are right. Arriving at Rope Drop is the best tip ever.

For our family, the second best "tip" ever was to purchase Park Hoppers. There's no way we would ever travel to WDW without hoppers, since hopping is the key to our happiness at the World.
