Plan of attack for Epcot in the morning

[toefungus]

Now that Epcot has three new big e-ticket attractions to hit, how do people go about hitting them in the morning? I was thinking of getting there for the rope drop, getting over to Soarin for a fastpass, then heading back to Test Track and then Mission Space. Does anyone have any other options to do?

We are going to grab a fast pass for Soarin, then wait on line for Soarin. Then grab fast passes for Test Track. We are going to skip Mission Space.

We were there this past week on Memorial Day, which was also EMH morning at EPCOT. It was VERY full, but we managed.

Anyway, we FP Soarin' and headed straight for Test Track after that. Everyone had headed for Soarin' and Mission: SPACE (I was surprised by that choice) mostly and we only waited about 10 minutes for Test Track. I did Mission: SPACE after that (couldn't get anyone else in my group on it!) After that, we walked back to Soarin' with our FP. We did all 3 within the first hour of EMH.

The other tip I must say, is to head to World Showcase as soon as it opens at 11 am. Furture World was SOOOOOOO busy and we escaped to World Showcase and had the place practically to ourselves. We also scheduled a sit-down lunch back there and the restaurants were fairly empty too. My guess is most people go there for dinner. Lunch was much cheaper and more relaxing.

Just wanted to pass on my EPCOT experience. Have a wonderful trip!

I agree on FPing & doing Soarin' first, then straight to Test Track to ride/FP that. The lines for Mission:Spew never seem to be as huge as the other 2, probably because only the very strong of stomach can handle it! My 16 yo DS loves M:S & has never had problems getting on it single rider, stand-by or FP.....

The lines for Soarin get HUGE quick - They are projecting lines of 2 hours long & built the queing area to hold 2-3 hour lines.....

We did a variation on the theme on our EMH at Epcot in that we rode Soarin' first (right after rope drop) and then got a fast pass to return a little later in the morning. I'm so glad we did, because that first time we were front row, center section!
