Terrible Anxiety over Disney Trip & If my Touring plans are right! :(

[paraplannerkelly]

Thanks everyone. @profmatt I’ve not heard of the FPP modify trick so I’m going to see if I can find some posts on that so thank you so much.
You are all absolutely right in that the plans shouldn’t rule the holiday, and I promise promise promise that I will do my absolute best to just enjoy and take in the magic. I’ve been dreaming of this for the past 40 years! I just want it to be the holiday of a lifetime that everyone hopes for x

Here is @OBNurseNH’s Magnum Opus on the subject.

How to maximize the FPP system to minimize ALL of your waits – not just the first three

Please note that the following information is best applied at and most useful in Magic Kingdom. The other three parks have both tiering systems in place limiting which FPP guests can get and when, as well as fewer attractions that actually utilize the FPP system. You may have some success in those parks, but you’ll have the most success using this plan in Magic Kingdom. Now, sit back, relax, and get ready to have your mind blown Guests at WDW are afforded the opportunity to pre-book u…

If it makes you feel better, do this. Take your plan and first go on the first 2 or 3 rides. Then get the lines app, and select done for those attractions. Then hit optimize again. It will make sure you get the best plan for that day. Do that repeatedly throughout the day.

I didn’t do this when I went, just basically going off the plan I had printed, but I have heard that it makes a lot of difference.

And the bottom line is this - RELAX. You’re on vacation.

When you find out, tell all of us.

So I’m on my vacation now and today there’s been a tornado warning and torrential rain. I totally cancelled my plans at DHS.

BUT it doesn’t matter! Thanks to my own knowledge and research — and the very fine people on these forums — I came up with an alternative plan and I’ve had a great day so far. Sometimes doing unplanned, unexpected, spontaneous things is better than slavishly following a schedule.

Apparently you can do it through your Disney World App. You can order it and then you can let them know when you are 5 minutes away and they will prepare it ready for you to collect. Obviously not done it yet, but plan to. Look on Ap, click on order food and I think its pretty straight forward. Hope you have a truly magical time. I think the bad weather will only last a day or so then its going to get really warm x

I’m so proud of you!!!

Get on the MDE app and on the home screen there should be an “order food” button. You can practice now, just don’t actually purchase anything.

We did this on our last trip and it was amazing. After only a few hours, DH, all three DSs and DMIL were all extremely impressed with how we were bypassing busy lines in favor of shorter ones and going back when long lines had shortened. It did change our original TP constantly, but we weren’t hung up on any particular order and it was well worth it in the end! I always recommend this to people who want to be sure to get as much done as possible.
