What do you think? Is this doable?

[KEVD]

A question for the experts. Arriving at rope drop and walking at a reasonably brisk pace, do you think we'd be able to pull off riding each following (in the order listed) on standby with reasonable wait times? And be done riding all by say 11:30a ish? This will be on Fri April 24th. Non EMH day.
1. 7DMT
2. PPF
3. BTMR
4. Splash
5. POTC

If you want an alternate strategy, you could do all of those in about an hour late at night.

We'll be there the same day. Good luck tonight at midnight!

Not sure about the answer to your question as I haven't been since the new FP+ system and the addition of 7DMT. Some things that will factor in: Will you be at the front of the RD pack? Little children with you? From what I've read, if you get behind the crowd going to 7DMT you could spend your first 30-40 minutes getting through that one ride. With the 9am opening, prime RD crowd-free time will be short. I've done the RD stampede for Soarin and TSMM in the past and absolutely hated it. We're heading straight to either Frontierland or to Space (if it reopens on schedule) - still undecided.

Arriving at rope drop? Maybe, but I tend to lean toward no. That would put you at the back of the pack.

Arriving 45 minutes or so before rope drop? Definitely.

I agree with Alesia. If you don't arrive until RD, you will have several thousand people between you and the tunnel entrances. About half of whom will be ahead of you all the way to SDMT.

If you want to be near the head of the briskly walking stampede, be there at least 45 minutes before RD. And park yourself in front of the right tunnel entrance, not in the center of the entrance plaza.

Thank you. I should have been more clear and said said "prior to rope drop". Yes, we will absolutely be there 45 min prior to RD. However, our plan got foiled because the FPs for Space are gone for that day. So we ended up getting FPs for Splash, BTMR and Buzz. Only two of the four of us like Space Mtn so I'm thinking we'll go directly to 7DMT, then do PPF, Mermaid, Pooh and Teacups while we're in Fantasy Land. Afterwards we'll head over to Space and get in the single rider line.

What do you think the single rider wait times willl be like at Space Mtn say around 10:00a - 10:15a?

 

[subtchr]

There is no single rider line at Space Mtn.

The only single rider lines at WDW are Test Track, Expedition Everest, and Rock-n-Roller Coaster.

 

[KEVD]

Uh oh. How are the lines at Space Mtn at night?
