Please critique my day 1 MK tour plan

[alh2011]

When: July 2016, CL 7, most recommended day
Cast: myself, DS 4, my sister, DN9 and DN8

805 Pre Park ADR @ BOG (what time will we be able to enter since they have started 730 ADRs?)
Plan to be out of BOG by 840 (will pre order food)

840-855 SDMT to ride before RD crowd

900-915 PP (my sister and nieces will ride standby)

905-925 Speedway (myself and DS4)

930-940 Teacups (meet my sister and nieces there)

950-1010 JOTLM

1015-1030 Dumbo

1035-1050 Barnstormer

1100-1115 BUZZ

1130-1145 Meet Mickey (FP 11-12)

Myself and DS4 will return to resort for lunch and nap

My sister and nieces may stay at MK and use the rest of their FP(or they may do anytime rides and shows until I return around 4)

I will return to MK around 4pm to meet up with my sister and nieces (my son will stay at resort with his grandparents)

Use remaining FP for POTC and splash

Then we will try and get 4th, 5th FP for BTMRR and HM (Does anybody know when we will be able to add the extra FP from our phones?)

QS dinner in park

Find spot for Electrical parade and Wishes

How does this look for our first day at MK? We will return on Thursday to do things we missed or want to ride again and will leave for day after the parade.

Thanks!

I have a couple of comments.

1. Unless you really want to spend a fortune at BOG to wolf down breakfast, I would skip it. I was at the MK on Saturday and it was a level 7 day and we were in line for the 7dMT by 8:50. There was a delay in opening the ride but we were off by 9:20. Just remember to follow the crowds to the left of the castle going toward the tea cups.

2. Buzz will not be a walk-on by 11.

Granted these are some rides with shorter lines, I think you will have a difficult time completing this list by noon

I agree, skip Bfast or bring your own and eat in room, Be in line for RD and go knock out the rides. If you insist on BOG, do it for dinner in place of the QS

Skip BOG. It's overpriced for what you get. Just be at the park in plenty of time for RD.
If the park opens at 9:00, even if you ate at BOG, you're not going to be able to do SDMT at 8:40, unless they open the park early, or it's EMH.
Your plans are definitely too optimistic. JOLM, Buzz, and Dumbo will not be walk on that late in the morning. They may not have a huge wait, but they'll definitely have 20-30 minute waits.

Thanks for advice. We did pre park BOG back in Sept and were out by 840 and got straight on SDMT and got to ride twice before RD crowds arrived. So its not promised but it is possible.

As for my tour plan nothing is set in stone so I will just skip JOTLM if waits are to long and I will add a FP for BUZZ. Thanks again for the info!!

I respoect everyone sharing that they feel the cost of BOG breakfast is nuts. I'm glad you find value in it. Being in the park early is a nice treat certainly. I'm glad you added the Buzz Light year fast pass, the nephews will really like it. I think you will have a better chance getting a FP for Haunted Mansion than you will for Big Thunder. Just be aware of the times since it may overlap a little with the parade and fireworks. Sadly, just keep an eye out for updates on the ability to book 4th FP via phones, it may only go into a test phase and they could cancel it. So just plan on a kiosk for now.
