RD time for FOP

[wdwplanner13]

Ok, I know I have seen this somewhere but can't find it now. I'm planning on AK RD tomorrow, what time should I get there? It opens at nine. Will getting there at 7 be early enough?

Following - great question

I would plan on arriving around 7:30.

I agree with arriving at 7:30. I think 7 would be a little too early.

So, we arrived to the park at 730 and got off the ride at 855!! Thanks for the help!! Loved it!!

Glad it worked out well.
At 7:30 were there already a lot of people in line or were you toward the front?
Last fall, at 7:30 there were already at least 100 + there.

We were near the front, and did a full on jog from the gate to the Pandora holding area.

What mode of transportation did you use to get there by 7:30? Are you on site or off site?

I stayed at Boulder ridge and had my own cat, so we drove to AK

The reports seem to bear that if you arrive well before actual opening time, you can be off this ride right around opening time, thereby effectively increasing your open park ride time. Now...if anyone is willing to wake up that early...most are not (I AM!!) Congrats OP....guessing you were up around 6am??

I'm also really hinkie about this term "arrived". Can you tell others reading & planning where you were at 7:30? Were you parking your car, standing at security, ready to tap at ticket turnstiles, or walking to FOP at 7:30? This will help others wanting a PPO ride of FOP.

I read it and couldn't make any sense of it until I read your post lol

Lol. Cars make better transportation than cats. And to clarify, we we're parking the car at 730. They let us through the gates at 8, and then let us into Pandora close to 830 (more fuzzy on this time)

Hey, don't judge. My cats make great taxis
