What should I FP+ at HS?

[mshanson3121]

We want to go to the 3:30 show of Frozen Sing A Long so we're not back tracking all over the park, but there are no FP+ left. That said, do we really need one? If we do, we'll choose a different time. Going end of June.

Also, should we FP+ Voyage of the Little Mermaid?

Should we FP+ Indiana Jones?

We're definitely FP+ TSMM.

Agreed. Mesaboy's thread provides excellent advise on assessing your FP options and priorities for each of the parks.

I've never been at the end of June, but I doubt you'll need one for Indiana Jones. From my experience, Voyage of the LM could go either way. I've seen wait times that were really long and really short all in the same day. If you can't get one, don't worry too much about it. TSMM is a definite yes of course as is Rockin Roller Coaster. We're going in middle of June for the first time and we booked the Frozen sing-a-long just because we have no idea if we need to, so better safe than sorry.

Frozen is moving from its small theater to the huge theater that housed American Idol. I do not think you would need FP for it once that happens. We have seen it 3 times in the old theater, never with a FP, and never got there more than 20 minutes prior to the show. Once mid December, once over New Years holiday weekend, and once early February.
DHS has fastpass tiers. If you choose Toy Story, you cannot also do RNRC or Great Movie Ride. We choose Toy Story, Tower of Terror, and Star Tours. The huge shows like the car one and Indy hold a ton of people so to me that is a waste of FP.

I didn't know this! That's great. Do you know when that is planned to happen?

Like a PP said, it seems the line for Voyage of Little Mermaid can sometimes be quite long, but other times not bad - that makes it a decent FP in my opinion. If you happen upon it when it's short, you can watch then and change up your FP.

Indy is large and doesn't need it, IMO. Are you planning to do Star Tours, Tower of Terror, or Great Movie Ride? All of those can be long or short waits depending on your luck and can be good FP choices. (But I just remembered GMR is tier 1, so can't be selected along with Toy Story)

True that GMR would be a waste of a tier 1 FP+ booking, but I still wouldn't rule out riding it with a FP, if you're wanting to experience it. Odds are decent you will be able to find availability for it booked as a 4th FP. We snagged one for a family of 4 just 10 minutes out from the given return time in the 6pm hour during a high crowd time.

We used a FP+ for the Frozen show and it turned out to be a waste of a reservation. They let the FP and standby lines in at the same time, so the standby folks actually got into the theater first for the most part, because the FP line was slowed by the Mickey readers. Regardless, there was seating available for everyone who wanted it.
