FOP in September

[SharonEM]

I've decided to take a last minute trip to Disney for 3 days in September. Two of those days have morning emh scheduled for Animal Kingdom and right now we are booked at an off-site hotel. So I checked the touring plans crowd tracker that I've never used before, and for those days we are going, it has a maximum predicted wait of 48 minutes for FOP. Should I trust those numbers? I mean, even if they are off and the max is 60 min, that would be great. I'm debating on cancelling my stay at the Hilton and booking on-site to be able to rope-drop more at AK...but could it be that we don't need to?

Absolutely not.

Absolutely not.

Thanks for the reply. I was shocked to see that. Even more so that the max wait time was even lower for my other days!!

I would view that number as a bare minimum on any day, and likely accurate only in the first few minutes of opening.

I would either plan to rope drop AK on the non-EMH day, or move onsite... and arrive well in advance of rope drop in any event.
