MGM expert advice needed

[eeyoresmom]

We've been to WDW many times and for our June trip we're doing just our hi-lights.I need help with MGM.In order to free up a second morning for Mk,we will only visit MGM one evening.Here's our must do's: RRC,Stunt Show, Fantasmic(without the dinner package).That's it.we plan to arrive around 5:30.How would you do it? I'm concerned that FP's will run out by then. is that likely on a Sat night in June?TIA

No ToT?

Better check Steve Soares' entertainment site before you go. I'm not sure the Stunt Show will be on that late. It was noon, 3p and maybe 5p(?) when we were there during Easter week. It's a very large theater, so I would think you could get in without going TOO early, although it was pretty full when we saw it. We picked up FP's for it that were just handed out by CM's and therefore not machine generated - didn't count against holding another FP. Got them around 9:15am for a noon showing. THe show was maybe 35 minutes, although they were still working on it then.

Definitely get your FP for RnRC first if they are any left. From there, the park closing time and show times will dictate how you do things..... If there are two showings of Fantasmic, go to the later one. Then I would think you could ride RnRC during the first showing of Fantasmic (possibly standby).

I was curious if a Fastpass was needed for the Stunt Show so probably not?... what about WWTBM?

I'll assume no FP's are available:

1. Arrive
2. Go to Stunt Show
3. See if showing available, if so, view it.
4. RnR
5. Fantasmic.

I can't predict showtimes for the Stunt Show so there or may not be a show that late in the evening. Saturdays at WDW in general are busier than most other days so be prepared. Wait for RnR should be about an hour. Once you're done with the Stunt show & RnR, go and get seats for Fantasmic!
