I have been going over and over our AK day and it is driving me crazy. See if this will work if not what changes would you make?
AK's closing is 11:00 pm
We plan to stay at the resort, eat, swim and leave for AK around 3:45

4:30 line up to see the 5:00 Lion King show.
5:45 walk through the Gorilla Falls Trail.
5:30-6:30 FP Everest I was thinking arrive here about 6:00
6:30 Yak & Yet dinner
8:20-9:20 FP the Safari, we want to be there right at sunset.
9:00 Tough to Be a Bug
9:30 Dinosaur
9:55-10:15 FP Jungle Book
I know it feels kind of rushed to me. Maybe we should leave the resort earlier but we do have a dining reservation at 11:30 and want to enjoy the resort and pool for most of the day if weather permits.

You'll probably need to skip the Gorilla Trail in order to get to Everest, ride and then get to your ADR. The rest SHOULD be okay, but I haven't kept up with how Jungle Book works.
 
I Will Forget the Gorilla trail too but it's A thing to make In the morning at the opening of the park if You are an early bird. You can take your Time, return to the resort And relax.

You Will run between is tough to Be A bug And Dinosaur, They are far apart.

Yes I think we may just arrive a little earlier and do Tough to Be a Bug on the way in and then go to Dinosaur after the safari.

Yes it wont give us much time to walk the Trail unless we hurry.
 
There is still wait times even with fast pass, even though they are sometimes extremely small. Even with fast pass, you should give yourself a 20 min window to get on the ride.

If your fast pass starts at 8:20, you might not get out of it till 9, which means you will miss the bug show, and thats basically if you walk on.

Same with dinosaur, if you get in there at 9:30, you might not get on the ride itself until 9:50 or 10:00

I would personally see the 4 o clock Lion king show if they have it and see if times open up at 5 for the fast pass to everest. Then run to see tough to be a bug

Call me crazy but I would probably get the dinosaur fast pass at 9 to get right on, and as soon as I used that fast pass, keep checking for the jungle book fast pass.. then again, thats just me, probably wouldn't recommend it lol

Either way I would try and do bug earlier, so you can hit dinosaur earlier
