Offsite guest strategy for SDMT and FOP in September?

[CJK]

With offsite guests, I usually recommend doing SDMT and FOP early in the morning since it's not usually possible to get FP's 30 days out. However, in September, there are extra magic hours every morning in MK and AK. My guess, is to do these 2 rides right before park close. Is that your recommended strategy?

Yes, right before park close should be the best option.

We’ve often found 10 minute waits for 7D just before closing time. The longest we’ve ever waited was 20 minutes but that was during opening week in 2014.

On our last visit, we waited 17 minutes for FoP just before close. You really can’t get this type of result in the morning, no matter how early you arrive.

Just keep in mind that posted wait times are intentionally exaggerated at night to discourage late riders.
