No RNRC or ToT-still need Genie+ ??

[firstwdw]

If we are NOT interested in RNRC or ToT at Hollywood Studios, is Genie + still worth it for: Smugglers Run, Slinky, Midway Mania, Alien Saucers, Star Tours or could a combo of arriving for the 30min pre-park time and park closing help minimize waits? Sunday Nov 21....so thinking YES for Genie+ but maybe not? Not sure. Plan is to purchase ILL for Rise and do Runaway Railway at park opening (staying at CBR).

Isn't that the Sunday of Thanksgiving week? There is a destination d23 convention that ends that day.

50 minutes early on a Wednesday in November got me on smugglers run twice and once Mickey and Minnie's runaway railway...HS was supposed to open at 830 am but we were already inside by 815 am for early park entry.

Lines were long (60 minutes for TSMM and Slinky)

We will be at DHS on 11/21 as well and are staying at CBR. We bought Genie+ for our entire trip and have 2 days at each park.

Waits for Star Tours will be low, and waits for Alien Saucrers and Toy Story Mania shouldn't be too bad.

For Millenium Falcon and Slinky Dog, if you can do one during the early morning half-hour, and the other just before closing, you should be able to get by without Genie+.

Personally I really enjoyed walking right past the people who were waiting 70 minutes for Slinky Dog. I think it is pretty easily worth it.
