One day. One rider. Critique my plan!

[Bahamontes]

Have a day to kill before the 24 Hours of Sebring next week, so I’m headed to the parks 11/18 with a Hopper/Genie+ one day solo ticket starting off at HS. Staying off site for the first time since 1987. Since it’s just me, G+/ILL seems a no-brainer. Walking/transportation is not an issue for me.

If I can, I’d like to use one ILL for Remy later in the day. If I can’t, I’ll likely skip Epcot and save Space 220 for the next trip.

Would y’all use the other ILL for RotR or FoP? I’ll ride both regardless of wait, so I’m merely trying to maximize efficiency. Here’s the plan as of now. Please feel free to skewer it - any suggestions are more than welcome!

HS (8:00am - I’d rather drink coffee in the lot than the hotel):
MFSR
ST
Oga’s 10:15
RotR

MK (2:30pm):
Is Tron open yet?! Will likely just walk around for a couple hours and ride based on short waits. Nothing crucial.

AK (5:00pm):
FoP (ILL)
KS
EE (if standby is short-ish)

Epcot (7:30/8:00pm):
Remy (ILL)
S220 Lounge

Great plan! My only items to consider are:

1. If you aren't interested in anything specific at MK - perhaps go to MK last to ensure you get everything else done first? I only say that because I went single to MK with plans to park hop to Epcot. I never made it to Epcot because I suddenly became entrenched in MK "stuff" that suddenly interested me like realizing I could ride space mountain twice on that day, and - oh! I hadn't seem this merchandise before, and oh wow I'm hungry for a snack now let me wait on a line to get a pretzel, etc. But perhaps you'll have more discipline than me lol

2. I'm sure you've already done this but envision how you getting from place to place. HS and Epcot are next to each other and both accessible by the skyliner and boat to/from each other. Epcot and MK both accessible by the monorail. AK is the one that's more "out there" but it closes earlier so you can't leave it for the end of your day. If driving - need to make sure wherever you end is close to your car if you aren't driving in between each park. I don't think trams are running yet so best to find closest parking wherever you are. If you Uber - you might lose time going back and forth to AK in the middle of it. If you're taking a hotel bus in from off site hotel - might want to reassess park sequence to whichever parks are closest to each other using WDW transportation.

Hope that helps!

Given your plan I would purchase for RoTR and Remy.
It will not work as you hope. Staying off site, when you get to HS, RoTR will be at least 90 minutes standby, so paid LL is needed.
MK, Tron will NOT be open.
AK, FoP will probably be shorted by then.
EPCOT, don't think you can get a BG as you don't have a park pass for EPCOT and you will not be in EPCOT at 1 pm, so need to do paid LL for this as well.
S220 probably will not happen. ADRs are hard to get. The lounge is filled and a long wait.
Hope for the best and plan for the worst.
