Which FP would you choose?

[jacobsmommy]

We will be at WDW in July. It'll be my family (me, dh, 15 yo ds, and 11 yo dd), my parents, and my brother's family (him, his wife and his almost 2 yo ds). We are staying at POR.

My brother's wife doesn't ride any of the thrill rides. My dh will ride SDMT and maybe SDD.

At DHS should we FP TSMM or SDD? Everyone can ride TSMM, but I'm not sure which would be better for rope drop and which one we should FP.

At AK should we FP the safari or rope drop it? We would also like to get Pandora and Everest FP, maybe Dinosaur too....

At Epcot should we get TT or Soarin FP? I think my sil will possibly ride Soarin, but not sure about Test Track.

It's been a long time since I've been with a small child or a larger group.

You'll have to actually decide yourself which of these rides to FP...only you know what your family may or may not enjoy. I can tell you, that getting a FP for Pandora would be a good place to start. Otherwise you need to be there at park open. Or actually 45 minutes before park open to have a decent place in line. Once you get that FP, which is a Tier 1, then just grab the others you mentioned for those interested....Everest and Dinosaur. The next FP you should work on is SDD. Then just rope drop TSMM. I believe I've read mixed reviews on doing a TSMM rope drop, so someone else will surely chime in. At EPCOT, you need to decide how much walking you want to do. Remember that TT and Soarin are on different ends of the park. Try to get your FPs at EPCOT as close together as you can. Me and my son are going to rope drop Frozen, which is located in Norway in the WS, and then go right next door and meet Anna & Elsa at the Somerhaus. However, that end of the WS is close to TT which I am going to FP. We will then walk over to Soarin and do standby and while in that line, I will work on moving our two tier two rides up to earlier times. Hope I've helped!
