Fast passes for Epcot and a rope drop MK question

[taraaplin]

i checked out the Fast Pass ratings from Mesa and still don't know if I planned Fast passes good for our family. We are a fan of 5 kids are 11, 9, 4

I figure we will rope drop it to Soaring.

We Fast passed TT, nemo, and spaceship earth. I know we really won't need them for nemo and spaceship earth though. So should I change to something else or what?! The tiering confuses me! We are going during Sprjng Break right after Easter. So busy!

Also, do you suggest we Rope drop it staight to Mine Train and Fantasy Land or to Frontier Land. Or one day RD to Fantasy and next RD to frontier?

Those choices are just fine. It's really what you would call guidelines.

Spaceship Earth has been one of the rides that has felt the FP+ implementation in a negative way. The lines always seem incredibly long now and I can only imagine it is because people don't know what to do with the other fp+s. Pick the rides you think your kids would like an go with them regardless of what others might think. Mesa has a good plan for what saves the most time, but that doesn't mean it works the best for your family.

I would rope drop Mine Train if that is a priority. It is still an incredibly busy ride, so getting in early is crucial. Around Easter the waits aren't really going to drop. Personally, I FP Mine Train and go ride 4 other rides in the time I would spend waiting for a RD Mine Train. It is all as to what is available when you book fp.

A sidenote...we were able to land FP for both MK days (times we wanted) for Mine Train.
