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 definitely did this for my group - We would tackle one land at a time and it worked fine. I would just say start in the land that has your highest priority rides AND are the most popular. I also decided to cut certain tier 1 rides that either we don't care about or aren't that appealing and use early entry and individual lightning lanes to our advantage. Book and ride your rides as early as possible and hold those "Ace" cards if needed. Cutting certain rides right off the bat helped us not stress and focus on the rides that were the best fit for our group. For example, my 7 year old was a bit too young for Tron, so we didn't even bother. good luck!
