Keys to the Kingdom and June Crowds

[jessicalynn88]

What is the chance the keys to the kingdom will be available to book 60 days out? I just decided to take a solo trip in June this week. I'm waiting on a new airline points card to book anything. Not worried about ADRs since its just me but hoping to do this tour since no one I normally travel with is interested. Also, I notice the crowd levels are really high the week I'm there, 6/8-11, if I stick with the most recommended park should I be ok? I'm expecting to wait in longer than I'm used to lines but not like holiday level.

I am definitely not a Disney "Pro" - but I will say that our very first trip was the end of July in 2014. Crowds were definitely at high levels! With 2 kids along on our trip, I did TONS of planning - I used recommended parks each day, arriving 45 mins to an hour before park opening to be at the front of the crowd, hitting popular rides in the first 2 hours and then a "loose" schedule for the afternoons and we accomplished every ride/show we wanted! We also did not purchase tickets until we arrived so we didn't even have the FP+ reservations made ahead of time! We got lucky being able to still reserve some FP's that we wanted, and just did the other popular rides right away. The only ride we really waited an unfavorable amount of time for was Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, which had JUST opened (we did get there right away one morning, and would have had no wait - and then of course it broke down).

I know crowds were insane, but honestly with having an itinerary of what we should do and when, the heat bothered us way more than the crowds!

We've gone every June for the last 9 years. IT is busy for sure. We are doing Keys to the Kingdom as well and I booked well in advance. For a party of 1 you ought to be ok squeezing in on a day - it runs I think 3 a day so hopefully it works for you.

This trip was really last minute so I'm really hoping I'm able to do the keys to the kingdom tour. I don't have anything else planned so I can do it any day if they have a spot. The crowds are making me nervous. I'm hoping being alone I can handle it with rope drop.

I think at 60 days you'll be OK. There are three keys to the kingdom tours a day. One of those three groups should have room for "single rider "
