We have a very quick long weekend trip planned for November 1-4, with 2 park hopper days on November 2 and 3rd. On November 3 we plan on an Epcot and Animal Kingdom day. Our original plan was to rope drop Epcot and get FP for Animal Kingdom later in the day. I made my FP selections this morning and was able to get FOP for 6:20-7:20. If we get in line right at the beginning of our FP window will we have enough time to standby for ROL (which shows at 7:30)? Or would we be better off doing the morning extra magic hours at AK to ride FOP standby, hop to Epcot for F&W, then hop back to AK for ROL? We have never seen ROL so would like to try it. Ahh...so hard to know what to do. Thanks for your input.

My money would be on the fact that as soon as you use that FOP fast pass, you’ll be able to get a ROL.

Depends on time of year though.
 
Do they release more fast passes on the day of? Currently there are no fast passes for ROL available.

If you tag in at 6:15, you should be off FoP by 7:00. Things can always happen, but with a normal day, 7:00 would be the latest I see you coming off FoP. You'll need to walk FAST to get across to RoL, but you should make it.

No FP's are not released the day of. They don't hold any back for any time. However people cancel fps and move around all the time. It's a good chance a same day RoL FP will become available.

However a FP is not needed to see any show at Disney
