I appreciate all the help (and patience). I am struggling with this new system and really need advice.

We are only going to have 1 day in Epcot and it is not EMH unfortunately. Our trip is at the end of July, only 4 days there isn't at morning EMH for EPCOT while we are there.

I have a FP+ at Frozen 1:45 (my thinking was that I needed time to try to do TT & Soarin and use up the other 2 FP before I get into WS - please correct me if I am wrong on this.)

Our plan is to head straight to Soarin at rope drop. Then should we go straight over to TT? I made the other two FP at Pixar Short Film (11:10) and The Seas with Nemo (12:30) thinking they were over by Soarin and we could knock those out easily enough while we were over there. I can change these, of course.

My attempt was to get the Tier 2 FP so they would be near where we would be. Why walk back and forth in the July heat? But I had not considered that TT would even be possible after standing in line at Soarin.

My daughter won't do the TT single rider. I wish she would but she won't.

I want to use them up so I can get another Tier 1 if there any left (maybe to TT or Illuminations).

There has to be a better way than this.
 
If you get into and out of Sorain' early enough you should be able to get into line at Test Track and do okay. The line won't be short, but probably ok. Pixar Short Films does not need a Fast Pass. I'd consider Spaceship Earth as it will have a longer wait than Pixar.
 
I second the idea of going straight to Soarin' at rope drop and then head to TT. Try to be at Epcot at least 45 min before opening so you can be at the front of the pack and then walk with purpose! As BrianL said, you should think about swapping Pixar for Spaceship Earth. Then you could hopefully time it to go there after TT with your 1st FP, then on to Nemo with your next FP. Good luck!
