Morning at MK

[mastodon]

We will be at MK on Tuesday Dec 22. Just wondering if we race at rope drop to 7DMT, will we be able to get on Peter Pan right after without much wait? We will Fast pass 7DMT for a 2nd ride since we have never been on this ride before.

I have yet to go in December (but will be in Epcot on 12/22!!), but I don't think that is likely. Rope drop SDMT lines are still fairly long. I would either FP PP, too, or consider doing SDMT for a 2nd ride near closing and rope drop PP. Have you plugged this scenario into a touring plan? I find the a.m. Predictions have always been very true to real time.

12/22 is my birthday and we were there last year. Even at ropedrop the line for the minetrain was too long for us as we didnt want to spend tons of time in line. In September I was able to snag a BOG breakfast for 8:20 and we had breakfast and then BOOKED it to the Mine Train. After that we were able to get on PP (first time ever, ie 5 visits). Best bet is to see if you can get a breakfast reservation to be at the back of the park before/as the park opens

I have been told that it is likely Magic Kingdom will open at 8 on 12/22 so BOG won't give us an advantage- correct?

Will we have time to check time on 7DMT and if long move over to PP before line gathers?

If you want an alternate strategy, we found a 10 minute wait at 7D just after Wishes on a crowd level 8 night this summer. The posted wait was 65.

Later that same night, the posted wait at Pan was 40 minutes at about 11 pm. The actual wait was about 1 minute as there were only about 10 people in line.

We find late night touring to be a much more efficient use of our time than trying to fight through the morning crowds.
