What time would you arrive to rope drop the following attractions?

We plan on being at rope drop every morning. We are a party of 9 (me, dh, 15 yo ds, 11 yo dd, my parents, my brother, his wife, his 2 yo ds).

On our first morning we will be going to MK and plan to ride Haunted Mansion and POTC first. What time should we get there?

On our second morning we will be going to Epcot and plan to ride Soarin first with a rider swap. What time should we get there?

On our third morning we will be at DHS and we plan to rope drop TSMM. What time should we get there?

On our fourth morning we will be at AK. We plan on heading to the safari first. What time should we get there?

On our fifth morning we will be back at MK and will head to Winnie the Pooh and the carousel. What time should we get there?

On our sixth morning we will be back at Epcot and will more than likely head straight to Frozen Ever After. What time should we get there?

For second morning, I'd say 30 minutes before official opening?

For fourth morning, probably 30 minutes before official opening. Safaris should basically be a walk-on with all the crowds in Pandora.

For fifth morning I wouldn't worry too much, I don't think that those two are big rope drop rides so sleep in a bit and maybe just arrive a few minutes before official opening.

For sixth morning, I'd say 40 minutes before official opening.

I don't think any of those are attractions people stampede to. I think you'll be fine to get there within a half hour of park opening and go directly each. Soarin' is the only one you have listed that you'll have some competition for, but even then it should be easy to go to first thing with little wait.

Agree with PP that you don't really need to be there much before Rope Drop to have little or no wait for those attractions.

However, the trick is not knowing just when Rope Drop will be, especially at Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom. I would get there at least 30 minutes before official park opening at those two parks because Rope Drop may well be 15 minutes or more before official opening time.
