Magic Kingdom touring plan question

[chicagogrl]

if we have a Fastpass for 9:30 for big thunder mountain and 10:30 seven dwarfs mine train what should we go to first thing in the morning? Extra magic hour that day. Should we go to Peter Pan?

I'd generally look at high-demand attractions where going early helps you avoid long lines later. PP is certainly in that group, and the line gets long quickly do to its low capacity. Might also want to consider Space Mountain.

If you want to ride Peter Pan's flight, do that first. If you get there at rope drop, you should be able to get 4 or 5 things in before your BTMRR fastpass.

Ok thanks!

On an EMH morning a week ago (last Thursday) we were walking up to the bag check just as the opening show was ending, .. and even though we didn't sprint to any rides, we were able to get on 4-5 rides before our 9:30 AM fast pass (that was still so early it wasn't even needed).
I decided to hit Tomorrowland first .. so we hit Buzz twice, Tomorrowland Speedway, TeaCups several times and Little Mermaid.
There was plenty of time for a leisurely stroll up Main Street .. some Photo Pass photos and those rides and a bathroom break all before 9:30 AM when we headed over to Enchanted Tales with Belle.

If I didn't have a toddler with me (who dictated some of the ride choices), we probably could have hit Space Mountain or any other Tomorrowland attractions if we wanted.

I would hit some of the typically longer lines first:
Space Mountain
Peter Pan ..
Tomorrowland Speedway (if that interests your family)
Haunted mansion (on your way to BTMRR after normal park opening)
Heck .. maybe even just beeline towards Seven Dwarves Mine Train to go on it twice that day.

I was wondering if we should go right to 7 dwarfs and can switch our fast pass.
Some rides aren't open at extra magic hour so I am trying to research that.

Thanks for the info! It is just my husband and I. I imagine we can get a lot done early!!

I would keep your FP for the mine train. The line after breakfast was very long last week. If you can get on early, use your pass to ride again

 

[Praying Colonel]

Agreed on keeping your 7DMT FP. Even doing it standby @RD is hectic and can put you in a relatively long standby line depending on where you're located in the stampede.

Ok thanks! I appreciate all of your input!

Where is there a list for the extra magic hour rides. I saw one that had haunted mansion on it but another did not.

Pay attention to whether you're looking at morning EMH or evening EMH. http://**************.net/2010/10/11/whats-open-during-extra-magic-hours-at-walt-disney-world/

AM EMH has most of the Fantasyland and Tomorrowland rides open.
