First Trip since Genie+ and wondering if our old strategy will still work at MK. We will be there January 22-29th. Hopefully low attendance. Can we still be at MK for park opening (9:00 am) and get through Fantasy Land by 11:00ish without using Genie+? Then start our Genie+ choices at 11:30ish? Do we have to be there at 8:30 to make this work? I am truly overwhelmed planning this trip. We are traveling with our daughter, her husband and their 1 & 2 year old. Thanks for any help you can give me.
 
in my opinion, it's iffy. My personal recent experience is that travelling with infants really affects this. Everything takes twice as long, and all it takes is an unexpected diaper blow out, or fussy baby, and there goes an hour.

Just hauling the stroller in and out of the bus, and getting everyone buckled in adds 15 minutes.

it's good to have a plan, but I would go in expecting to achieve had your plan, just to be safe.

If you want to ride Peter Pan without Genie+ and without waiting over an hour then I would say you need to rope drop it at 8:30am.

But if you are getting Genie plus anyway why not use one on Peter Pan? Get it for around 10am. At 9am you can do both Haunted Mansion and small world with low waits, then ride Peter Pan at 10am and make a new LL as soon as you scan your band there.

Don’t get overwhelmed. It’s not that hard especially if you are getting Genie Plus and will be skipping the Mountains since you have 2 year olds.
