Going back after a long break!

[M SH]

I've been out of the game for a while! last time i was at WDW was during the first days of genie plus coming out.
Im going for a 1 week trip (September 6 - 13 - low season - fingers crossed); have park hoppers. staying in all star sports.
kind of just decided to book and go, so need some advice.

Does anyone have any tips to share for someone that haven't been keeping up?
any must-Dos / don'ts for rides, snacks, food, etc?

any tips for this new LL system? is it better to book always the earliest, to tap in and open up the bookings for other parks?
Does the refresh method work well with new system? Do i even need LL in September?
Does the LL multi pass let you book an attraction more than once like the old FP+ did?

which parks are better to go to in the morning vs park hop later in the day?

any tips on anything would greatly help as Im trying to catch up on things.

If you plan to be in the parks early then normally an early LL to open tiers and hopping is recommended

You don't really 'need' it but it will save you time. Personal decision. We are going during the last 2 weeks of Aug and at this time do not plan to purchase LLMP>

Does the LL multi pass let you book an attraction more than once like the old FP+ did?

No. You may only ride an attraction once using LLMP.

which parks are better to go to in the morning vs park hop later in the day?

I would recommend going to MK on a party day then hopping elsewhere. Visiting AK in the afternoon often means lower crowds as the day progresses too.

There are many similar threads to yours that contain additional information. I would check the first 3 pages of this forum to look for threads that might provide info to help you.

We’ve been regular users of the refresh method for years, but we couldn’t get anything good to come up last week. Not once.

However, additional lightening lanes drops occur on a regular basis and we were able to pull several of those each day, often with a less than 20 minute wait for the return time.

You may want to familiarize yourself with the Thrill Data website and be aware when those drops are scheduled. They do go quick so you have to be ready.
