Here is what I mean..take a look at my Sept schedule and look at Monday, 9/8 specifically.






Now look at my FP+.








So, we will be at Epcot for when it opens and head directly to Soarin (no wait), then head over to Test Track and the wait will almost assuredly be less than 20 minutes on Monday by 9:05 am. After Test Track we will probably hit Mission Space, Sum of All Thrills, then head over to Nemo, The Seas, Turtle Talk. By this time it will probably be about 11 am so we will head to the World Showcase and do Maelstrom and grab q cuik service from one of the countries.


THEN, after a few beverages we will walk over to Hollywood studios where we will have FP+ waiting for us for Little mermaid, Toy Story and Tower of Terror.

We won't wait more than 10/20 minutes for anything all day and that includes Soarin, Test Track, Maelstrom, Toy Story, Tower of Terror.


We are essentially doing the same thing on Sunday (9/7) and Sunday (9/11).

Depends on if you are talking about hopping over there and it is the second park of the day, OR if you are starting there and ig single rider is an option for you at Test Track.

Epcot is tiered, so you can only choose one selection from Soarin, Test Track, Illuminations and Living with the Land. Then you must choose two from the second tier which is Captain EO, Figment, Maelstrom, Character Spot, Mission Space, Spaceship Earth, nemo & Turtle Talk

They either have to be used, or the time window has to have passed. So, even if you don't use the third FP+, you cannot book a fourth FP+ until that time window has expired.

Yeah, Epcot and Hollywood Studios are tiered. At Hollywood Studios you must pick one option from Beauty & the Beast, Fantasmic, Rock N Roller Coaster, Great Movie Ride and Toy Story. Then two choices from Disney Jr, Indy Jones, Muppets, Lights Motor Action, Star Tours, American Idol. Tower of Terror and Voyage of the Little Mermaid.

i think epcot is going to be the least interesting for a 4 year old, so i can sacrifice it and just hit it up later at night when the others go to bed.

question for our Chef Mickey breakfast @ 7:25. will we be able to take a shuttle from Art of Animation to Contemporary?

Sounds a lot like mine, minus the water parks. We will be going back next year and maybe the Magic Kingdom will get a little more than two days. They loved Epcot, too - but we were there for Star Wars, so that got a day and a half. They weren't a huge fan of the Animal Kingdom, so that may be a partial day and then hit MK again.
You stay on site? We stayed at the Allstar Movies one, but will be a Shades of Green from here out. Gotta love the buses - we didn't drive but once and that was to the Studios so we get early in line so my son could do the Jedi Training Academy.

Two years old is too young for Disney. Why not wait until they are 5 or 6 and can enjoy many more of the rides?

Not that I know of - the buses only run a little before opening and they won't be that early. We did the Cinderella breakfast at 0800 and had to drive.

Early two, maybe. Ours was about to turn three and she absolutely loved it - especially the Cinderella stuff.

Agreed. Took my one year old sister (only because we get in for free) and it was basically a waste of time. She might have had a little fun though.

Yeah, but that is a lot of money to spend when the kid will forget about the trip in a year.
