Soarin and Living with the Land FP Strategy

[dawgsgirl]

Was at Epcot last week and noticed this change. People are getting FP for Soarin and NOT getting FP for Living with the Land. I was there about 4:00 and got a FP for Soarin. Then I went over to Living with the Land. Tried to get a FP--no such luck. Other people had also been trying--the top of the FP machine was full of invalid FPs. Wait time was posted at 20 minutes, but the line was moving at a steady pace. We got in line and were getting on the ride in about 5 minutes! I saw one family come in the FP line during this time. This is a big change--Living with the Land stand-by line used to be a nightmare with all the FP people. Just thought some of you might find this interesting for your "touring plans."

Using the FP system, we waited only 4 minutes to board Soarin'. The people waiting in line had a 45+ minute wait. What I think happens is people get a FP for Soarin' then try to get one for the Land boat ride (which, of course, you can't do). Hence, so many invalid passes.

I love that Soarin' uses FP ~ it was a delight!
