Hello! I'm trying to plan out the best paths to take / strategies, for a group with 3 youngish, first timer, children. Trying to figure out how to best utilize Lightning Lanes while avoiding crisscrossing and doubling back all over the park. Would like to limit the miles on their legs, while also taking the time to take everything in. It all seems a bit overwhelming (I haven't been to Disney since og FastPass). If you buy LL, how often, if at all, are you using the regular line for the non premium attractions? Or are you always using it? I was watching your recent video about using LL to "unlock" yourself. Very useful information.
Won't be doing any Park Hopping, just 1 Park per day.
And for instance. 1st LL Space Mtn, 2nd Haunted Mansion, 3rd Splash Mtn. All spread out 3+hrs apart? Then after tapping in at Space Mtn after rope drop, use the open LL slot / standby lines, to hit other rides around TomorrowLand? Or do you try to pick 3 rides in the same vicinity? Am I doing this right? Other, better, recommendations?
Thank you!
I was at Disney earlier in the year with 2 children, so I totally get not wanting to zig zag! Buying multipass definitely allows you to take your time more and have breaks.

Splash Mountain is Tiana's Bayou Adventure now, I'm guessing that's what you mean. Space Mountain and Tiana's are both Tier 1 attractions so you will only be able to pre-book one of those. Tiana's is definitely the one to pre-book as it's super popular.
Haunted Mansion is a good choice and perhaps you could book Pirates of the Caribbean as you could likely get that super early, which will "unlock you" and then start booking other rides in that area.
Also are you staying on Disney? If so, you could utilize Early Entry to get some of the popular rides done.
