Fantasyland to Haunted Mansion from early entry to rope drop

[Disneymom1102]

If we are planning to do early entry at MK to include PP, then Pooh, and then want to go to HM at rope drop, what is the best pathway? From Pooh to Haunted Mansion, where do they hold you at the rope before you can enter Liberty Square? Will we beat the regular rope drop entrants for a zero wait?
Plan is then to either take care of JC and Pirates if we can get an early LL for JC and then flip to a Pirates LL and finish morning in Tomorrowland, then do evening in Fantasyland for remainder of rides (below). If we can’t get early LL for Jungle Cruise, we’ll book JC and Pirates for afternoon and focus on remainder of Fantasyland rides standby with minimal waits (small world, dumbo, barnstormer, little mermaid) in the morning plus Tomorrowland (Peoplemover and monsters Inc) before we leave for mid-day break.

After Pooh, you'll want to head back to Peter Pan. They will hold you in the pathway between Peter Pan/Small World and Haunted Mansion. You should have very little wait for Haunted Mansion.

The key will be to get to EE early so you can be toward the head of the pack heading to Peter Pan. The wait time for Peter Pan grows very quickly, and if you are toward the back of the rope drop crowd, it will put you way behind on your plan.

I would do PP first, then go back to Pooh. Yes you are backtracking. But 7DMT and PP are the 2 busiest attractions in Fantasyland and will get long lines quickly. Pooh doesn't tend to. Then walk toward Haunted Mansion. You will be held near Columbia Harbour House or the Tangled bathrooms until RD.

I agree with that. What I was trying to say was that after doing both PP and Pooh, the best pathway to Haunted Mansion is back toward Peter Pan.
