What one and only ride would you buy an ILL on?

[Grumpy by Birth]

Since others have already done so, I'll bend the rules a bit from the question as posed and list the one and only ride in each park that I would consider buying ILL for:

MK - Tron
EP - GotG
HS - RotR
AK - FoP

Admittedly, that's pretty much all of them.

We have gone so many times we have become lazy park travelers. I’m not trying to make rope drop since frankly I just don’t care enough to get everyone up and moving that early. This basically forces us to by G+ if we want to ride a few things, and once we have already bought G+ we kinda just buy the ILLs so we can have a little bit of a plan.

At this point our typical park day is rolling in around 4:00 with a G+ thing at 4:30, a ILL at 5:30, dinner at 6:30ish, and then just see what else we want to do. I know it’s wildly inefficient, but that’s just where we are.

We are currently at BC and I’ve bought ILLs for RotR (which got all messed up when our kids decided they were too “scared” to ride it lol), Tron, and 7DMT.

I’m sure we will buy GotG tomorrow, and we will just play the rest by ear. Like others have said on here you don’t need to buy any of this stuff, but you have to be willing to wake up pretty early to make the parks at RD.

I think we'll probably get all of them during our October trip as we are travelling with extended family who are going to have trouble waiting in line and I'd rather pay the money for the peace of not listening to the complaining. There are some things you can't put a price on lol.

We bought LL for: FOP, 7Dmt, TT

FoP. I have no desire to stand in that queue.

Funny, I think that FoP has one of the best-themed queues in the whole resort. But I agree that in the morning, it's annoying to have to wait outside all the way back to Africa (we did this at RD a few weeks ago and had to go almost that far back, though the total wait was just about 30 minutes).

Sorry for the non-responsive response, but my answer is:

None, ever. I don't consider any attraction at Disney to be worth paying an extra 10-20% on top of the proportional daily cost of my park ticket, let along doing it four times over for my entire family. I'd feel like a fool if I did. If we want to ride those headliners with a minimal wait, we do it the same way we always have -- in standby, at rope drop, for no extra charge.

That's what we will have to do. With 3 ILL on my list, a 4th is not in the cards. (really wanted to buy just 2) That will be a very early AK morning that day.

For 3 people, looking at around $45-$60 a day for ILL at the end of January. So I will budget $150 for such. May end up knocking one of that list.

Tron and GotG don't have a stand by line right now. But you are right. (at the least, these rides should be included with the paid service) I really don't know but I figure the crowds at RD have increased significantly since Disney monitized this stuff.
