Pre book LL’s starting July 24

Maybe they will move it when TT comes back?

I was thinking the same thing…lol
It’s a bit sad that after the ADRs at the 60day mark there is no more planning to do. I had no more planning to do for August!

Now we get to have a 7 day mark! And we have a TP that works!

Were you able to book more than 1 with G+? I always relied on drops after booking my first headliner at 7.

Soarin would probably be the first ride to sell out at Epcot as a tier 2.

I hypothesize that the VQs for Tron and GOTG will be going away effective July 24.

Hmm, that would be interesting! They are advertising virtual queues still so I am not sure?

The new system will definitely benefit rope droppers the most; I don’t see any other way around that since you can book your 4th LL immediately after using the first pre-booked one. If you start later in the day you will be way behind on LL’s already grabbed up by early park goers.

So, to maximize the new system, you still have to get up early.

Yes, just as my 9 and 6 year old have moved to being night owls and sleep-in types.

This completely sucks. I hate mornings.

I highly suspect Soarin’ will still be available day-of for much of day (as it is now).

Tiana’s will be VQ for sure.

It’s not - they announced standby.

This is what I love best about it. While I love knowing all they ways to maximize the system, I don’t always need to maximize the system. I do like to have a plan ahead of time though.

Looking at the tiers and thinking about the better non-Tier 1 rides for optimization purposes:

MK: HM
EP: None really
HS: ToT, TSM
AK: EE, KS, NRJ. There are no tiers at AK.

My initial thoughts are these are the rides I’m leaning to for non-Tier 1 prebooks.

Yes. This is why I hate tiers. My first thought with the current system is how nice it is not having tiers. I did almost all the headliners in each park with LLs. I honestly hate this new system.

Yes- rope drop Not a problem here.

Oh it would because the others are useless. I have to see what day of availability looks like because EP might not be worth it.

But Tiana’s will be VQ for awhile until demand slows. We just don’t know how long that will be. It’s a short term VQ.

Haven’t really read anything in this thread but 379 posts already tells me people have opinions.

But didn’t you want it fixed? Didn’t we complain on the regular for the last 3 years about how much we hate waking up at 6:40am on vacation to book at 7 and all the stress of the day riding on those crucial 2 minutes? Haven’t we complained about having to set timers and reminders and alarms and having our phones in our faces all day on vacation?

Yesterday we did 4P1D and good lord was I sick of playing with the damn thing by the end of the day to make our plans work out. I for one am overall very much welcoming this update. And you all will too, and you know it.

Or at least when they change it again you’ll complain about that, too, and say how much you loved this iteration.

Back to vacation mode…
