Epcot Question

[brandyleeann]

Hi there,

We have a 9:40 am reservation at Akerhaus and I am wondering what I should plan to do in advance of that. Assuming the park opens at 9:00 am, and I won't have been able to FP either Soarin' or Test Track (so we can FP Frozen), would I have time to do one of these? There are two adults and two kids and my little guy is going to be devastated if we don't do Test Track and I thought lines might be more manageable first thing.

Thanks!

If I had to choose I would rope drop Soarin'. The line for Soarin' just seems like something I wouldn't want to do later on in the day. Not sure how young your little guy is but if he is at least 7 - and your party would be ok with it - you could do single rider at Test Track. That way you would get to do all 3 rides with the least amount of waiting possible.

Get there for rope drop, head straight for TT, after that go to your reservation, ride FEA, whenever you use or let your other two FP's expire then try to get Soarin as a 4th FP

Rope drop Test Track. It is on the way to Akershus. Plus the line for Soarin' has been really short in the late afternoon recently while Test Track's line stays longer IF it is open. You didn't specify when you are going, but if it is in the summer then you always run the risk of Test Track being closed by afternoon thunderstorms.

We were just there 6/23-6/29 and rode Soarin' two different times (neither at rope drop) and waited stand-by for no more than 30 minutes.

We tried to let our FP expire, thinking it would then let us make more, but that didn't happen. This was late April so not sure if it has changed. Another idea, is to go to Test Track and ride the single rider line. You should walk right on.

I am with those that say RD TT then head to breakfast, with the 3 theater soaring is not that bad, and I think the line is kind of interactive? I would FP FEA and have the FP starting around 11 this way you have until 12 to ride it and I do not think it will take 2+ hours to eat.

Did you use or allow all your fast passes to expire? You should be able to make more tier-1 fp's after that.

Since you're heading to Norway anyway, I would actually RD FEA and get your FP+ for TT.
