Now that I have my fp's I'm looking to see if I need to change things.
Background: we will be at HS on a Saturday and its morning EMH. Touring plans has it at a level 3 and easywdw has overall a 7 with HS as park to avoid. However it only suggest AK as park to go to and HS is not listed as the worse.

So.. Anyone know how hard it will be to get a 4th fp for Fantasmic around 3:30? I just checked and it seems they still have some today right now.

My current plan is to hit up RNRC and ToT at EMH rope drop before heading to Star Tours 9:30-10:30 FastPass. I currently have a ToT fp for 11:35 but want to move it back so I'm not zigzagging all over park. Ideally I'd like to maybe do Indiana Jones, GMR, maybe the playground. We have lunch at Sci Fi at 12:35 and Toy Story Mania at 1:20. So if I can move ToT back till around 2:30, will it be possible to get Fantasmic after that?

Sorry it's so long!
 
I think I'm gonna risk and move ToT. Plan is to leave after and take break and come back for Fantasmic. If they don't have any I'll just wing with candy and toys :)
 
Shouldn't be a high risk at all. In April, on a one Fant night (8:30), we picked up our 4th FP at 7:30.

Keep watching the boards in case they change the seating for Fant as it could require a separate FP that won't affect your initial 3.
 

We were just there in May on a Saturday with morning EMH. I think the predicted crowd level was 4 or 5 on TP with it being the park to avoid on EasyWDW. We booked it as our maybe 5th or 6th FP of the day about an hour and a half before the show. It was available all day every time we looked to make changes.
 
We have a F! dining ADR, but not crazy about keeping it-how is the seating with the FP+? We will be there on 9/13, one show at 8PM.

If you arrive at least 45 minutes before showtime, you can sit in the section that's adjacent to Dining - just a little off-center to the left. Or, if it looks like there may be better seating in Standby, not likely, you can move to that section on the other side of Dining.

Yup.

Map Below-
Arrows indicate the center of the seating.

Shaded areas:
(First or Only F! performance of the evening)
Cyan= Standby (walk-in) seating
Red= Dining Package Reserved
Blue= FP+ Reserved
Purple= Can be either FP+ or Dining Plan Reserved, depending on needs.

(Second or Third F! performance of the evening)
Cyan= Standby (walk-in) seating
Red, Purple, Blue= FP+ Reserved
(Although much of the outer Blue will likely be used for Standby.)

Like others have said, you shouldn't have an issue at all. Fourth of July weekend (so think massive crowds), I was able to get a FP+ for the first F! showing within an hour of it starting. For me, the addition of FP+ at F! has, more or less, eliminated my desire to purchase the F!DP, something of which I was a huge proponent.
