So, I'm staying off property for Thanksgiving week. I'm figuring on going to AK twice that week to make sure i get to see all of the new stuff. Any suggestions for a touring plan (or two) that minimizes my waiting time for the new Pandora stuff (assuming I can't get fastpasses)?

Suggestions? Thanks!
 
The best would be to rope drop each one on a different day. Make sure it is not EMH. For the FoP day make sure to arrive 90 min before park open. For NRJ you can prob arrive 30 min before and be fine.

For NRJ you may have some luck getting a FP either prebooked or day of, but you can't necessarily count on it!
 
If you don't want to arrive that early for rope drop, you can always try at park close, they are saying the waits are not as bad the last hour or so for FOP.
 
We are offsite people (and in fact will be there Thanksgiving week also). Give it a shot for FP+, you never know. We got them...though it took a bunch of work. If we can't get them, then we'll try later at night. If that doesn't work, we'll skip it...we're not willing to stand outside the gates at the crack of dawn.

For everything else, we rarely have a true "plan". Except Pandora, FP+ for anything in AK are easy to get, both 30 days in advance or same day. So we really freestyle a lot in that park, hitting one section at a time.
