Spoiler Alert -- Tiered FP+ for MK!!

[MrInfinity]

Hehe not announced yet, but you know it's coming. Might as well get an early jump on the ranting.

So -- what will be Tier 1 or Tier 2?

For sure Mine Train and Enchanged Tales will be Tier 1, plus possibly a viewing spot for the new Parade, so ppl can only get one of those and cannot usurp more than one ride of the Mine Train.

Everything else then Tier 2? Space Mtn, BTMRR, BOG Quick Service...

I'm going to place my prediction that there ends up being THREE tiers at MK! Magical, I know

I agree. So then there should be 4 or 5 per day for MK.

Possibly the parades, fireworks, Enchanted Tales would be the 4th category??

You can predict some overlap too. There will be something that doesn't need fastpasses in tier one while a more popular ride or two will end up in tier two. I'm sticking with 2 tiers.

Can (Virtual) lettered tickets be making a come back as well?

The "E" tickets are easy, the real question is if "Stitch" will even rate an "A" ticket....

I wish they would maybe just offer 2 FP+ Per day that you can preschedule with no restrictions-could be any ride, parade spot, show,etc., in any park and then maintain the old system with day of FP through scheduling either on the app or in park kiosks like with the old machines. Have day of times not open until when the park opens as it does under the old system and have limits on when you could schedule the next FP like it is now, either when current window opens or 2 hours later and not allow one at same time as your prescheduled FP+. This seems like it would be a system that would make everybody happy. Get rid of the old machines and that will stop the "double dipping" complaints, give those who don't like rope drop or go at busy times a guarantee of at least two "experiences" and allow anyone the option to get more as it has always been at the park.

Everyone who could would pick both for SDMT then.

To fix that you could just add a rule that says you cant pick the same ride twice... but then everyone would pick SDMT and ET. No other rides would get picked, and the tiering is designed to get the tickets more distributed among all the rides instead of all in one or two rides.

Tier 1:
7 Dwarves
Space Mountain
Pirates
Carousel of Progress
Fireworks
Little Mermaid
Pooh
Haunted Mansion

Tier 2:
Parade
Splash mountain
Big Thunder
Peter Pan
Small World
Enchanted Tales
Ect.

You have to have some high capacity not needed FP selections in tier 1 to disperse crowds.

 

[MrInfinity]

So far (gasp) I agree w most of the posts.

3 tiers would be nice...

Tier 1: SDMT and ET
Tier 2: 3 Mountains, Pan, Parade, Space Ranger Spin
Tier 3: Everything else

And you get to pick one from each. That way everyone gets to pick a single ride on one of the new rides, one traditional A-List ride, and then one ride you wouldn't otherwise think of picking, but would probly come in handy.

But, they haven't set the precedent of going to 3 tiers at any other park, so it's not likely at MK either.

That's because the other three parks don't really *need* three tiers. MK might.

This is what was offered for the MK tiers during testing last December courtesy of poster bryannem:

MK offered 2 sets of choices.

First set has:
BTMRR
Buzz
Princess Meet and Greet
Enchanted Tales
Main Street Electrical Parade
Mickey Meet and Greet
Peter Pan
Space Mtn
Splash Mtn
Wishes

Second set has:
Celebrate a dream come true parade
dumbo
jungle cruise
haunted mansion
Philharmagic
Monsters Inc
Barnstormer
magic carpets
Winnie the Pooh
Little Mermaid

you can pick 2 options of each set and then then give you 4 choices of different times.


I agree with everyone who stated that the new minecoaster will be a Tier 1 selection.

 

[PEC]

I agree.

Seems to be whpat they have been doing at the other parks.

 

[ArwenMarie]

I think they will lump Splash Mountain and 7DMT into the same tier. And Peter Pan.

I could see the other mountains being in a different tier.

Dear God, if they tier DHS, what will be the point of having 3 FPs there?

TT, RRC, and TSM in one tier, and possibly Star Tours.

There are other rides at DHS?
