Pandora strategy

[lucky4you]

Do y'all think it's possible to rope drop Na'vi river journey then FP flight of passage and make it to a 10:30 ADR for Tusker house? Or would it be too ruched? This is with a 9:00 opening and I was planning to get to the park at 7:30. Also, what time should I try to get the FP for in this scenario? I would be able to try for the FP at 64 days out. We are doing the ROL package with tusker house. Choose that time to be able to get breakfast and lunch at the breakfast price.

It's possible. If you can't get FOP for the time you want – and you're willing to arrive that early – you can probably ride both Pandora attractions (in order: FOP, then NRJ) before your breakfast and use a FOP FP for later in the day.

This has been my experience. If you RD Flight of Passage, along with everyone else, you should be able to ride Navi River after without much hassle. Everyone else will kind of be doing that also, but if you are one of the first groups to get on FOP it's very doable. You'll likely be done with both rides right when the park "officially" opens.

If you are planning to arrive at 7:30am for a 9am opening then I predict you will be able to rope drop FoP, head right over to Navi and be done with both by about 9:20am.

I have done this a couple of times, the latest in late July. In July I was done with both FoP and Navi by 9:08am. My trip through FoP was very quick as I was a single rider and got called up to fill in. I went on to ITtbaB, then Dinosaur, and finished a FP on the Safari by 10:45am. A productive rope drop morning.

You'll have plenty of time for your 10:30am ADR at Tusker House. i would head up to the Safari and ride standby.

The key is being there early and at or near the front of the line for FoP. The FoP standby time grows very quickly.
Wishing you a visit!

Going Fri morning, plan to arrive at 8 for 9 am opening and RD both rides. First time rope dropping for those, hopefully itll go smoothly like most people say.

Please update us with how it works out for you!

Unless you get a FP for FoP, i would RD FoP, then go wait in line for Navi. Just be sure to show up at least 60 minutes before opening time.
You should be good on time

Easily done as long as you can get the FP for FoP. And if you do, no need to be at park at 7:30. I'd say if you can get to the gates at 8:30 you'll be off Na'vi shortly after 9am and can likely ride it a 2nd time standby with not much more than a 15 minute wait. A FP that allows you to get online at FoP anytime by about 9:50 should be safe. If you are there at 7:30, you may want to try to RD FoP instead and then do Na'vi. Likely can do both standby if you're near the front of the pack. But if you don't want the stress - get the FOP FP, RD Nav'i, and head to breakfast. You'll have more than enough time.

(What I'd even suggest is RD Navi, then do the 10am Lion King show which ends right at 10:30. You're right at Tusker when you exit so you won't be more than 5 minutes late and will have that done).

If you get there that early, no need to FP FoP (and it would be really unlikely to be able to snag one that early). For a 9 opening if you are there at 7:30, go to FoP first, then go hop on NRJ, and you'll have plenty of time barring some really unforeseen problem (like a ride shut down).
