Commando plan for less than a full day at WDW on March 8 .....

[U2_rocks]

Is this doable? Does it make sense?

I have from park opening until about 3 p.m. to spend in the parks. I don't need to do MK. Here's what I really want to do, in preferred order:

- AK for breakfast and be at opning - do EE if open, fill in any wait time with a couple of other rides (but not Safari)
- MGM for RnRC (never done it) and fill in Fastpass waiting time with ToT
- Epcot for Soarin, TT and World Showcase in for a bite to eat maybe

It will be March 8, so not super crowded. I would be doing Soarin in the middle of the day practically - I assume there would be Fastpasses left with a return time before 3 p.m., given it's a Weds in early March?

Is this worth using a day of a hopper pass? I really, really want to ride EE and not have to wait until next year! What would you do if this was your only time frame and you really wanted to ride the above?

I will have a car. Where should I park for Epcot and MGM - which parking lot is the easiest to get in and out of, given that I can walk between the parks?

I don't have a lot of input for you, unfortunately. My biggest concern is Soarin'. From my experience in Dec and a slower weekend in February, I think that the odds that there will be pre-3:00 FPs available at Epcot at midday is low. From what I have seen, FPs are running out by mid afternoon. I would say that 3:00 FP will be gone by mid-morning. Perhaps you could hit Epcot first and then MGM? Or maybe park at Epcot, go through to get a Soarin FP and a World Showcase snack. Then walk or take the boat from the International Gateway to MGM. Do RnRC and TOT and then go back to Epcot for your rides.

Good luck!

That's not a bad idea! Thanks!
