Epcot at 4pm

[BaroneMD33]

We got a 4 day park hopper.. and I want to make the most out of my visit.. and I already made reservations at one of the restaurants, but I'm having second thoughts.. ugh.. decisions decisions..lol

If you have the park hopper pass, It is no big deal to go get few things done there and eat. Then you can judge if you want to explore more and wait another day to go back, Epcot has a lot to do, but 4 - close you should be able to cover a lot of ground!

I would do it!

Thanks for the imput

Agreed. You can get a lot done in a few hours.

Be sure to see the Pixar short film festival (does not need a FP).

I was wondering about this, and wasn't sure what I should do for the 3rd fast pass (1st twoare Missions Space and Spaceship Earth). Any suggestions? I had chosen the Pixar film festival but I'm wondering if that was a mistake.

I just skimmed the responses, but I didn't see anyone mention the actual COST to add a 5th day to a 4 day ticket.

It's just $15 (plus 98 cents for tax.)

Yup.

If you can get into a park for 3 hours, that's about $5 an hour.

How much do you pay to see a movie?
A pro ball game?
A play?
A concert?

What restaurant did you pick? I love Epcot, fun first night. You can see Illuminations, don't worry about getting the perfect spot, last trip we walked out of our dinner at Les Chefs ten minutes before the show, stood on the bridge between France and International Gateway, was about three deep, saw everything just fine.

I ended up getting reservations at Via Napoli. So looking forward to eating there!

I would go with Figment as a 3rd FP. Normally, this does not have a long wait. However, I would rather FP than wait 20 minutes. Also, you don't need one for Spaceship Earth either. Definitely get one for Test Track or Soarin (when open).

We have done it before.... definitely I would recommend! You will have a great start to your vacation!

Unfortunately Soarin' is closed, and Test Track is in Tier 1. All the good stuff seems to be in Tier 1.

I would fast pass Test Track, Figment, and anything else. It just screams for Epcot to get more rides (I know they are with Frozen Ever After, A&E Meet and Greet, and the new Soarin').

Sorry, I was originally thinking Mission Space was a Tier 2. It should be!

We ended up going to Epcot from 5pm to night. We missed a park day on arrival day so had the extra ticket. It was great. Happened to be not busy that evening and it let us book FP for Test Track... And saw Illuminations. Was great and we got a lot done.

So you think we would have less of a wait for Missions Space than for Test Track at around 5-7 pm? I was thinking of doing test track on an entirely different day, but if Mission Space wouldn't be too bad....

Absolutely! I would "roll the dice" with standby on Mission Space and secure a Test Track FP. I like the "build your own vehicle" pre-ride part. So, I don't like doing single rider where you miss out on the first part.

Test Track is a great ride. Do it on another day as well.
