Which Plan for our 2nd MK Day

[pinkgirlmommy]

Looking for adve on our Touring Plans. Which one is better for our 2nd MK Day-
Plan A- start in Frontierland or Plan B- start in Tomorrowland? We will be focusing on Tomorrowland this day but still want to do Mine Train, Big Thunder and Splash as well. I ran both plans through Touring Plans and they both seem to work, just wondering which one is better? We will be doing Fantasyland our first day and Adventureland/Frontierland another day.

On both plans, the 1:30 FP slot and then watching the parade at 2:00PM seem a little unlikely. Specially on Plan 2, even if you get on Splash Mountain on time, you still will have 5-10 minutes of waiting plus the ~ 15 minutes of the ride itself. And the parade start right there, so by the time you get out of Splash Mountain, there is a chance it already started.

I recommend when using touring plans to add 20-30 breaks every 2 hours (I called them buffers!) to account for bathroom breaks or lines that took longer than usual etc. I feel like this plan is too tight. Specially during the lunch time.

That being said, I see less walking on Plan A so that would make more sense to me. On Plan A you are hitting 4 good rides in the first 2 hours with minimal lines (plus 7 dwarf FP). and leaving the shows (Monsters Inc, CoP) for the peak hours. And is more likely to get the Speedway as your 4th than Haunted Mansion.

In Plan B, You only hitting 3 rides with minimal lines (not counting Peoplemover as its usually its minimal line anyway) but then using those 2 hours to see the shows. I rather save those for the peak hours.

Thank you so much! that is a good idea about the buffer. We always have to skip a ride when we follow my plans and that is a good idea of how to work in the extra walking/shopping/wait times so that we aren't skipping something in my plan. Thank you! I am hoping to see the parade our first day and skip it this day, but want to work it into our plans just in case. For now I will move Carousel of Progress down, try to move our FP up so that our Buzz is 1:15, then run over to the parade after. I will take Astro Orbiter out and we will add it if we have extra time. After Tom Sawyer I am pretty flexible to change our plans besides dinner and fireworks, but I want to have a good morning plan since it will be the week of Thanksgiving. Thanks for your help! Here is our new plan:
