Help me with timing of Fast Passes for MK...

[TnTWalter]

We don't care about Peter Pan.

Want to ride 7DMT Space Splash Big Thunder Buzz Monsters with fill ins here and there...

not sure how to strategize fast passes...assuming we arrive just after rope drop [waiting an hour doesn't appeal...]

I'm thinking grab a map and get whatever time for 7DMT and then trying to organize 2 of the other tops
fill in rest in morning before crowds...but I'm not familiar enough with the park [haven't been since 2011]...any tips would be great...

It seems touringplans assume PP fast pass as one and either arriving 50-70 minutes before rope drop or afternoon....we want to get there first thing but not before first thing...

Thanks.

well that stunk...

got 7DMT for 555pm...best time...there was a 520 but didn't see til too late and gone..

so that throws off the get more for later in the day...

so then i was thinking i'll plan evening at magic kingdom...but worried...

so got space mountain and buzz light year... no idea why picked buzz...panic mode...

lol..

so my times are space 950 buzz 1055

then went to change times to later but all gone for space...

so is it doable to get there 30 before rope drop and hit big thunder, splash, maybe haunted mansion on way to space and buzz...?? that gets us done around noon...to then see what has short lines [if any] and wander and explore a bit...head back or not and then back in evening for 7DMT...check as soon as enter 7DMT to see if there's any FPs for any rides we want to go on again or first time....

of course it's a BUSY time...so this all may be in vain..

Ive been to WDW twice in the past year and have had much success hitting splash and big thunder at park opening (actually, a little after... not quite rope drop) with wait times under 20 mins. These were a touring plans 5-7 crowd days. Not sure what the crowds look like for your trip. I would do splash and then big thunder. On my crowd 5 day it was like a ghost town in frontier land at 9 ish! More crowded on the crowd 7 day, but still short wait times. Best of luck!

7-8 maybe 9 but don't think so...we're going last week of March...so tail end of some spring breaks and earlier than others...with easter being so late this year no one knows...

Yes I think you will be fine. I bet you can also do Pirates after big thunder and Splash but before haunted mansion. Then get to space at the end of your FP window. Enjoy!
