Coming in on a Friday afternoon. What can we do in DL?

Hi,

We will be arriving mid-late afternoon on Friday, May 4th.

We plan to have dessert seating for the 9pm F! show.

We probably will have dinner at Cafe Orleans.

We definitely want to do the Tiki room since it will close a few days later and we won't be in the parks on Sat.

I guess I am thinking it will be too late for FP's and the parks will be busier. So should we just stay around that general area and do fast loading attractions like Pirates, Tiki, HM? Will it be a long wait for Splash? I suppose Indy will be too busy, having just opened back up and being a FP ride?

We'd like to do a few rides around eating and then F!

Thanks!

The first thing I would do upon arrival is check the wait board (or if you have a good wait time app, check that). I'd plan for heavy crowds since it's a Friday, but hope for the best.

There will likely still be FPs for Big Thunder Mountain, and in my opinion, quite possibly for Indy. MAYBE Space Mountain, too. You can do Single Rider for Indy, though.

Usually Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion aren't terribly crowded unless the park is PACKED, and Pooh should be uncrowded. Splash Mountain will probably be a long wait. You could definitely do Captain EO, Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln, and the Tiki Room.

I'd just look at the wait board with my fingers crossed, though. Have a great trip!
