Need help planning our first day (arrival day)

[jacobsmommy]

Our plane is scheduled to arrive at 12:35 and we are taking ME to AOA resort. Then we will head directly to DHS. What time should I make our first FP+ reservation for? I am planning on making our FP+ reservations for: TSMM, TOT (with something else for DH and DD), and Star Tours. The other things that we would like to do at DHS are: Beauty & the Beast show, Indy show, VOTLM show, Great Movie Ride, Muppetvision, and RNRC (just ds and I). We will be seeing Fantasmic that night. We will also more than likely be going to DHS on our departure day. Besides our three fast passes, what else can we fit in before lining up for Fantasmic? Also, do we all have to stay in the line for Fantasmic while we're waiting to get into the seating area?

I would say 4pm. That would give you til 2:30 to get to your resort, then 1.5hrs to check in, peek at your room (assuming it is ready), wait for a bus, ride bus to DHs, and get thru the gate.

If you get there quicker you can always do one of your non-FP rides while you wait.

We have never waited in line for F! But we go in the off season and haven't gone to F! Since FP+ started taking up a lot of the seats. We always liked to go in last minute and sit way in the back for a quick exit ahead of the mob.
