Staying onsite so can reserve FP at 60 days (trip is first week of May).

Planning FEA on Day 2 and FoP on Day 6. Which should I reserve first? (I know it might be hard to predict popularity of FoP 10 months from now).
 
As of Monday when I booked mine I would say FOP. I booked at the 60 day mark and was unable to get it on day 4 as scheduled and had to switch my plan around and go day 5. Even in may I anticipate FOP still being harder because it's newer, but you may want to reask the question closer to your date to see what people are experiencing at that time.
 
The hot ticket right now is FOP, most people are going to book that as soon as they can just like last summer when most people were trying to book FEA.

We booked our 60 day out FPs Monday as well and I will 2nd the above. Almost the exact same thing happened to us. FoP is a tough one right now and probably will be for some time. Maybe the opening of Toy Story Land will divert *some* of the hype in another direction?
 
I am definitely going to have to keep an eye on this. Tentatively planning my schedule right now. I currently both AK days in the middle and I am wondering if I should move one of them closer to the end.
 
I agree - FoP. Booked mine on Wednesday and couldn't get a morning time for it on day 3 but got evening on day 4 and lunchtime on day 5 (no morning times available on either of those days.) Had my choice of FEA for day 6 though and had no problem getting a morning time for Navi if you're interested in that one.

Yes interested in Navi but with 6 adults and 4 kids in the group it's tricky. 5/6 adults will want FoP and everyone will want Navi. I was hoping not to HAVE to do RD. I'm fine with an afternoon FoP FP but I guess we would have to get to AK at RD for everyone to do Navi.
 
FOP no doubt. FEA is not hard to get any longer. I live about an hour away with an AP so I can only book at 30 days out, and FEA FP+ times are now typically available at 30 days out (if I would want them) any time in the afternoon and evening.
 
I was slacking this year and booked my FP+ a few days after my window. I didn't realize I wouldn't be able to get FOP at all during our trip. Navi was available every single day at some time of day but no FOP, so now I'll be stalking the FP+ until the end of August.
 
I have AK planned on day 2 of our trip...is there still a good chance I'll be able to get FP for FOP at the the 60 day mark? I didn't even think about it when we planned our park days...
 
Is FEA a solid ride for non-Frozen fans? I love Frozen :love: but don't want to waste my travelling companions FP+ if its not something they would enjoy.

Thank you!!!

It's a nice ride. Unlike others (mainly Maelstrom fans) I think it is well done when you consider the constraints they had to work with.
That said, I certainly don't use my tier 1 FP+ for it very often. Test Track is a better use for that.

Thank you!!! It sounds like a very sweet ride but I'm guessing my boyfriend would be more impressed with Test Track.
 
If you have decent internet speed you should be able to book both in a minute or so. I would still start with FoP for sure. I made a list of the FP+ for each day of my trip and then prioritized them based on popularity. I was signed in and as soon as the window opened I was able to book 15 in about 5 mins. Good luck!

Nearly the same for me - I had to book mine later in the trip - none available the first few days. And this was at 7am starting 60 days :-)

Was this the case for FoP only or also FEA? I have moved AK to day 6 of our trip so hoping by the time I reserve for May FoP will be doable.
