Timing- Will this work?

[AtlantaDisneyDreamer]

Hello! If I stay onsite and walk to the park prior to EE on a day when the park opens to the public at 9 am (so I would plan on being at the gates by 7:30) will I be able to do Gringott's, The Mummy, and Rip Ride Rocket then get back to the hotel by 10, or is that pushing it? My plan is to leave my small children with my mom at the hotel in the morning so I can do a few of the big rides, then pick them up and do the children's rides and activities in the afternoon. Might that work with crowd levels at the end of May, or am I kidding myself?

On the same note, do you think that EE will only be for US, or will they offer it for IOA in May as well?

Thanks so much!

the studios usually has gringotts and DE open for the early entry hotel guests.

once the summer crowds begin, both parks might have EE for both parks.
nothing is known at this point if both will be open when you go in May next year.

you could do RRR and the Mummy without waits once they do open.
there are some days when certain rides do open a short time before the official park opening.

when you are done with gringotts, go to the other rides and you could be back in your room before 10.

Thanks, Macraven! That helps in planning.

Mac, sounds good too. Just remember as long as Gringotts does not have issues you will be fine.

and if op uses the single rider lines for those rides (rrr/mummy), it will save her more time.

Single rider lines would be great for me. Thanks for the suggestion. I have been wanting to go to the Universal since I was a teen and here I am a mom of two little girls and I have never been. I am a big coaster and themed-ride fan, but my older daughter gets frightened and my younger one can't ride them, so I am hoping to get in some rides alone early in the morning while the kids stay with Mom. It may be a bit ambitious to try to do the trip with the little ones, but I am getting impatient. I am a huge Harry Potter fan, and Diagon Alley is calling my name ...
