You won't believe which attraction gave me the most trouble reserving Fastpass

We actually used and enjoyed the 2 Tier 2 FPs at Epcot. We did Mission Space and Spaceship Earth, which we do for the really funny Your Future. True, we didn't need a FP for them, but that way we could try to get a 4th FP. Turtle Talk is also great, if you are trying to get a FP that you may not need, as is Living with the Land.

For anyone who is talking about a "throwaway" FP+ for Epcot, don't forget about the character spot FP+. My DSs (ages 13 & 16), DNephew (age 3), and DNieces (ages 5-13) had so much fun there! The characters were so interactive and awesome with them. Some of my favorite pictures from our trip came from that character spot. Don't waste a FP just because you think your kids might be to old to meet the characters.

We met Baymax at Epcot and it was awesome! We didn't use a FP for it, though. We only waited about 5 minutes.

yes...that is the two tier fastpasses I picked also since we may actually use them. Also the character fp btw, the time I was able to book my fastpasses was only open at 6pm that night .

Besides at Epcot in particular other than Illuminations its rather unlikely to get a second tier one after using all 3FP+ anyways.

I’ve read about people getting Soarin as a 4th selection since they opened the third theatre.

We actually love figment! Our girls wanted to go on it multiple times. It's a shame people book it to not use it. It just makes the ones that really want to miss out on the FP.

It was very busy when we were this month, but we had no problem getting Soarin as a 4th FP+. I was even able to get Frozen early in the morning for later in the day.

I will never figure out for the life of me how that attraction got so ridiculously popular after they started implementing FP+. Before that existed, people would have forgotten that ride even existed. I blame the messed up tier system at Epcot where nearly all the rides in Tier 2 are rides that people don't even know exist at Epcot.

2 things.

1. Newer visitors. Like me. We've been going since 2010 but are not-great park tourers. So there are whole swathes of parks we haven't experienced yet or fully. And at the very very beginning of this stuff, I was alone st Epcot and saw a FP for that ride come up. So I got it. And rode for the first time. (This was the Superbowl day when the Seahawks won, so whatever year that was). I'm quite sure there are tons of "me" every hour of every day.

2. longtime visitors who have thought it's been closed for years. Like my cousin and her family. They generally tour with us on our visits, and had told us that that area was long since closed. We would point to the sign and map and they would say that Disney just hadn't taken it off. At some point they'll go back and I'll tell them, and they'll enjoy riding again.

I’ve never ridden it before and now feel like I have to.
