MK touring plan help. fast pass times are messing me up!

[lcoult]

Here are my fast pass times:
Peter Pan- 9:50-10:50
Encant. with Belle- 12:50-1:50
7 Dwarfs Mine Train- 2:00-3:00

We are going on Thurs 9/25 with EMH from 8-9am.

I was hoping to get all of Fantasyland done before lunch, eat BOG lunch, and move on. I am feeling so overwhelmed with this mess!

We have 6 children (yes. six. we are a blended fam). Ages 5-10. 4 girls, 2 boys. They all like just about everything and only 2 have gone before. We want to basically do as much as possible, we are not going to break back to the hotel.

We ARE however.. the night before going to MNSSHP (I am nervous about this 8am EMH with the party the night before.. but I literally can't move my schedule around due to the mess of dining and fast passes,etc.). We have nothing else the day before, so we will rest up well before the party and won't stay all night. I am hoping to maybe get thunder mountain and a few little things done at the party while at the party to take some of the pressure off our one MK day.

If you have any advice on which way to go given those fast pass times I would love to hear it. Or if I should just try to get rid of a FP or what.. it seems like the times are not changeable at this point (I just tried). I can still adjust them all for every other park but not MK! aaack! overwhelmed. Thanks!!!!

I would keep your plan on doing Fantasyland early (maybe sneak in Haunted Mansion since it is close to Peter Pan and Small World), have lunch at BoG (like at 11:30 or so), do Enchanted Tales and Mine Train. You can then pick up your fourth FP at the kiosks by the train stop in the Circus area. You can then either head to Tomorrowland (there is a walkway back there) or take the train to Frontierland and do Frontierland and Adventureland next.

thanks! Do you think it matters which is next? I haven't been there in several years and when we went before, we just sort of winged it which wasn't the best idea. !
I'm hoping in Sept the lines aren't horrid and we don't have to stress too much.

It really depends what you want to ride, what you did during the party the night before, and what you can get with your 4th FP.

If you can get a FP return time for Splash close to when you get the 4th FP, I would head on the train, ride Thunder Mountain stand by, and then ride Splash. I would then try for Space Mountain as my 5th FP while I ride the Adventureland rides (namely Pirates, Jungle Cruise and Magic Carpet).

Conversely, you can try for Space as your 4th, head that way and ride Buzz, Peoplemover, and Speedway before riding Space and then trying for Splash or Thunder Mountain as your 5th.

Obviously, if you get some of these done during the party (where the lines in general will be short to none) and have no desire to repeat then that frees up the 4th FP for something else. You may need to play this by ear until you see what you get done at party and what is available for 4th FP+.

By the way, I am not sure your dates for MNSSHP are correct. There is no party on Wednesday 9/24 so you can't be going to the party the night before.

ah I did mess that up! That helps. We are doing MNSSHP on Tues and Wed the Animal Kingdom.. that'll be more low key. Good.

Thanks for your tips.
