How much longer is the Epcot construction supposed to continue? We are coming in from 7/23 - 7/30. If there is a lot of construction, should we abandon Epcot altogether? Maybe just park hop there at night? Here i smy tentative plans. Keep in mind that RotR is my number one priority. may want to ride it more than once. We have park hoppers.....

Fri 7/23 Arrival Day (HS) - Try to score BG's in the morning, hope we get to MCO in time. If we miss it, hop to MK t walk around.
Sat 7/24 - HS
Sunday 7/24 - Epcot or AK
Monday 7/26 - MK - Dinner at LeCellier - New show at Epcot?
Tuesday 7/27 - Universal - Kids want to do Harry Potter. When I say kids they are 24 :)
Wednesday - HS in the morning - Hoping to score BG again - Hop somewhere that night.
Thursday - Magic Kingdom for our last full day.

Can you generally get Epcot and AK last-minute park reservations?

Any thoughts on this? With so much up in the air I am trying to schedule as much as I can at HS to make sure I get to do RotR.
We are staying offsite - We have a rental car.
We generally rope drop, leave for a break before 1 PM.

Epcot Construction will be going on for years. I also can't imagine any of the almost complete attractions to be available in July. Still plenty of time to be proven wrong though.

Epcot in general is usually the last park to fill up for a given day, so pretty easy to switch to Epcot, as opposed to switching to HS. So far, there have been no issues hopping to other parks either, even when park passes were all used up. You could probably do several mornings in HS with different plans each day, grab some lunch and walk to Epcot or hop to AK and have more fun!

Also, for the Sunday you're split between ak and epcot. I'd start at AK as it will open way earlier than epcot, then hop to Epcot in the afternoon.
