I've read that perhaps a better strategy if you plan to hop is to make your FP+ selections for the 2nd park you are going to. Is this the better strategy mainly when you plan to hop pretty early? For example, go at RD...then, as crowds come in hop around noon or 1 to the 2nd park and use your FP's then? What if you plan to RD, but stay at that same park until 4 or 5...and then hop to a new park? In that situation, is it better to get FP's for 1st park - starting at like 11 or 12? Thanks!

There are so many differing opinions and plans that to simply say, "It's better to do X,"
can't cover the subject.

It heavily depends on:
Which park is first.
Which park is second.
The date and crowd-level.
Your preferences of attractions at each park in question.

OK. Thanks! I'm going Labor Day week, so perhaps I don't need to stress about it too much. I'm doing MK for RD and hopping to Epcot - but not until 5 or 6. I'll probably just get my FP's for MK. All this new planning is so overwhelming!o_O Thanks!
 
We do the second park generally because it helps us focus on time! Say we do MK and DHS well I want that TSMW FP+ and Star Tours for sure. So we will look to move always have lunch just as we arrive at the second park. Usually ABC commisary if DHS then go play that beloved Toy Story!

Morning at MK is 7DMT get a return time, Peter Pan, HM, 7DMT again with feeling ( got a DAS card ) maybe BTRM if it is running and there is time.

Everybody has their own way. But that's ours. Good luck!
