June trip and how to fit in all in..

[Momtomouselover]

We go a couple times a year and the most recent trips have been more relaxing because I don't worry about fitting it all in and we will be back. However, I am cutting back to 2x a year and we are bringing someone on this trip that has only been once before and won't go again for a very long time (my sons friend). So how do fit in all in and still have time to enjoy the pool and staying CL so want some snack/lounge time. Advice? Here is our list of must do's per the boys and me of course...the things in red are what I currently have FP+ for. We have a half day the day we arrive (6/15) and then 6 full days, and potentially a morning before we fly out. Advice?

HS - Star Wars fireworks and Captain Phasma march (stage show if it starts), Toy Story, RnR, ToT (may drop, no pun intended ), Indiana Jones, Star Tours, boys might want to meet Kylo Ren and see Jawas too. GMR if no line.
Epcot - Test Track, new Soarin, Frozen ride, Sum of all Thrills, Mission Space, Spaceship Earth and the little games after it.
AK - EE, Kali, Primeval Whirl (ugh, but my son loves it), ROL lite/Jungle book show, Tree show , night time safari
MK - Space (more than once if possible), BTMRR, Splash, Buzz (more than once if possible), 7D (optional), Jungle Cruise, Wishes (maybe from back of castle if short on time), probably Pirates and HM and Tea Cups

Sometimes I think its plenty doable and other times I'm not sure. I guess because I don't know what ride/wait times will be for new stuff and whether or not I'll be able to pick up FPs for them. We don't typically do full days either. We were planning on going after bfast in the lounge and riding until hot/tired then back to the hotel for rest and lounge snacks then out again at night for a couple rides and a night time show. One day we will stay at pool all day and only go out at night.

I guess I'm looking for advice and whether you guys think it is doable AND not too much. Would you change around the FP+? Now that I'm looking at it written down it should be plenty doable right?? Its probably having the CL and relaxing time that throws it off, LOL I mean we might do more and probably will try but these are the must do's and relax/pool time.

I think this is very do able if you do rope drop
I would plane FP starting around 1030
at MK I can do space BTMRR BUZZ Jungle cruse all in the first hour I would then take a break after you use your 3 FP back at your hotel then head back to the park about 6 or 7 ( this will give you about 3 hours at the hotel) and let you stay up for the night time things. and do not for get about EMH

at EPCOT I would FP sarin if it is open if the new dozen ride is open do this first (if it opens when the park opens) if not go do TT if the line is long or you do Frozen first do single rider line try an duo sum of all thrills right when it opens ( I think it is 10 or 11)

Hey, I'm taking a three day trip in June. Talk about hard to get it all in.
I had to cut back from five days because of work commitments. And I doubt we'll be back before AK is finished and DHS has at least some of the new areas done.

You really do have your "work" cut out for you! I think with rope drop a lot can be covered and that leaves the night for the shows/fireworks. My problem is bringing two middle school boys who want to sleep in, ride all the big tickets and still have plenty of pool time. I want to see the fireworks and night time shows and still enjoy the lounge. Combine together we needed more days so the trip became 6 full days (and now I'm still wondering, lol). Yesterday the boys asked if I would consider a water park or heading over to Universal for a day. I nixed Universal since both have been recently.

I like the idea of using rope drop but the boys want to sleep in. They are middle school age and sleep is a big deal for vacation as is pool time. So...I'm thinking we might make better use of late hours. We are staying at BC so I think if we head over late we could catch a Soarin during the fireworks with relatively little wait or maybe TT. The other option is I tell them that we hit RD 2 of the days (one at MK, other EPCOT or HS) and sleep the other 4 and see how that goes over. We don't like long lines so anything over 40ish mins we usually walk by but for something brand new I could stretch it to 60 but really, 40 is about my limit.

So, you think the better plan is to FP Soarin. I am considering dropping the TT and picking up Soarin instead but TT is my sons favorite Epcot ride. I really want to see the new Soarin though and I'm the one paying here . I was hoping the 3rd theatre would make it easier to do.
