Your plan looks good. I'm guessing you've used ridemax?

I can pretty much guarantee that GRR will not be offering FP on the weekdays. For that matter, ToT, Autopia and BTMRR won't be offering them either (just in case you are planning for them on subsequent days).

Yes, I used Ride Max, and like it, but couldn't get it just the way I wanted , plus I wanted my own notes added as well.

So, if no fast pass if offered midweek, then it won't be needed?

Will the day's schedule/map show what Fast Passes are closed, so I can eliminate those runs when we first get there?

Thanks for helping.

I went that week last year and GRR, ToT, and BTMRR were offering FP. Autopia wasn't because of Nemo construction, otherwise it probably would have. However, we did not need FPs for any of these 3 rides. The longest we waited for any of these was like 15 minutes for BTMRR.

Looks OK to me....

My only question mark is doing FL during EE, when we went FL was busy on EE. We went in on opening on a non EE day and it was empty, did all the FL rides in less than an hour , on the EE day we went in we gave up and only did Peter Pan then went and did BLAB and then headed over to be one of the first on splash. However we were there in June/July so would be busier.

I would double check the time for Toontown madness, I thought toontown didn't open till 10 and therefore ttm would be 9....

I also thought piloting the mark twain was a dream prize now, still worth asking...

If Indy is busy I would allow more time, the FP only gets you past the outside queue, it seemed to take us 30minutes to get through Indy with a FP
