Garden Grill Epcot to Test Track at 10:30

[nurseberta]

My Epcot day we got a PPO at Garden Grill breakfast at 8:15. Non EMH park day.

Is there enough time after that to ride Soarin and get to Frozen Ever After and ??? maybe Ana Elsa MG (if my 2 yr old is not afraid of the characters) and then back to Test Track for a 10:30a FP?

Not sure if I am leaving enough room or if I should try to move my FP forward or back.

We plan to go to Spaceship Earth FP 11:35 then the other side of future world and coral reef lunch at 1 with FP at Nemo at 1:35.

Thanks for your input!

By the time you ride Soarin and get to FEA, there will probably be a line, then you would have a line for Anna and Elsa. But since the FP window will go to 11:30, actually 11:45, you should be able to do it.

FEA is far from Garden grill, and even from Test Track. I would after breakfast ride Soarin, Test Track, Mission Space. Then head to FEA. Nemo probably is a waste of FastPass, the line is indoors and isn’t long.
Having PPO I would consider to move all those fast pass for a later time and try FEA right after breakfast, again is a long walk.

Yup.
Check the relative locations on the map below.
(Garden Grill is in "The Land" along with Soarin'.)

Hmmmmmm, this is what I was worried about! Maybe I should try soarin and Test Track out of the gate and then FP FEA but I have no idea for what time? We want to do the land and Nemo and innovations science labs stuff. Of maybe I can cancel breakfast and just rope drop FEA? I’m not sure which way to go. FEA seems better to do either 1st or way later

If FEA is a must for you then rope drop and keep your current fast passes, it makes more sense to walk from FEA and use your FP. For Breakfast you can stop at the Norway pavilion bakery. This plan is doable and to be honest it will save you money! Lol

thanks for all the info, I have changed out our PPO breakfast to Akershus 8:15am, then we will be right near FEA and I can also feel out if the princesses scare my 2 year old, then we can figure out if we can skip Ana/Elsa MG. I think we have decided the expense is worth the convenience of early entry and location to make the day go smoothly! will keep FP for TT and Spaceship Earth and hope for picking up Soaring later in the day.

I just want to make sure, there are no longer different opening times for the Future World area of Epcot and the World Showcase area, correct? All of Epcot opens at the same time now? Thanks

Nope.
Incorrect.

Future World (plus the Norway Pavilion, home of Frozen) will open first (9AM or 8AM EMH.)
(Also, a bakery in France opens in the mornings for breakfast.)
The rest of World Showcase opens at 11AM.

Some of the attractions in Future World close at 7PM.

We had a Garden Grill PPO last time, went over to Soarin at 8:45a, had an issue with our theater so didn't get out of there until 9:20a. We had a 20 minute wait at FEA. We still would have made it to Test Track by 11:45a easily.

Thank you, not sure why I wasn’t seeing this clearly. Thanks so much!!
