Being a bit Goofy

Same here - staying off-site, go 25th May and just finshed doing FP's every day. Found pretty much same thing - went on dead on 12pm every day, 7DMT - think I saw it available a couple of times around 9pm, nothing else.
Got the Na'vi river for the afternoon which was all that was left - then a 1030AM slot appeared about 30 mins later. It's definitely worth keeping on checking different rides now and again (hours/days later) if you want to tweak things a bit to suit. I found that a lot of things get booked up within 5/10 minutes, but then over the next 30 mins or so slots appear here and there for almost everything (incl Frozen/Avatar rides) as people chop & change their times about. I would presume it must be soooo much easier to (stay on site and) be able to do it 60 days out (although I'd probably put aside at least 3 hours if doing that all in one go lol). Edited at 04:20 AM. Reason: more info |

I know I'm referring back to 2015 and some things have changed - but we were able to get additional fastpasses for SDMT and some other hard to get rides. Just kept playing with fastpasses on the app in the queues and they sometimes appeared. The app has changed since then so this may not be as easy but Id keep checking every day - you never know when others change their plans it may become free.

For Pandora, I would go with FoP if available. It's really low capacity and takes ages to get through the interactive queue and preshow. People from advance preview are estimating it could see 4+ hour waits as they've built in a massive standby queue.
Navi is a good second choice if you can't get it, but (trying to not use any spoilers) a lot of people have been disappointed in this so would consider it much lower priority. But queues on this have the potential to back up quickly depending on how they load the boats, as they have 8 people capacity but in 2 rows of 4 which isn't a great combination. With no single rider line to fill the gaps, I can see them sending off a lot of half full boats. FoP does have single rider queue though, I'd be interested to see how much of preshow that cuts out. Again no spoilers, but I can only see this working if this comes out right at the point before they load the ride. So it might be surprisingly quick to begin with, as people will want to get the full experience. I can't see either ride having a lull like MK can in the evenings, since Pandora has been built as a day/night attraction so will draw big crowds all day. If you want to ride it, it's currently the best choice for FP1 at Epcot as the queues are insane. To do all three T1s, rope drop Soarin and do Test Track as single riders. If you're not that bothered, I'd still rope drop Soarin and FP Test Track instead - you miss the interactive queue in single rider. Edited at 05:11 PM. |
