Not sure if this helps, but I did a bit of internet searching, and they might start at American Adventure (eg at 10 am) and do a loop of WS?
Curious about the real itinerary details when you have them. ![]()

Oh man, that was a longer break than I intended. I got very busy and didnāt get a chance to get to the rest of the suggestions til now.
EPCOT
I made a new plan based on your suggestions since it was easier than trying to reoptimize and evanluate the old plan constantly. Here it is: Custom Touring Plan: Updated Epcot
Yeah, that sounds right. Is there a specific parade that I should put on the schedule, or just make a note of a stop at that pavilion around the right time?
I thought that the 2 mission space rides had different storylines, but I plan on cutting green if Iām running short on time. I want to ride LwtL once during the day and once in the dark when it is lit up.
Would that just be adding a couple of minutes for each pavilion that Iām already going to? I was planning on doing Pirates becasue itās one of my favorite disney movies, not neciscarily for the type of activity.
Yeah, how much time do you think each pavilion will take to experience? I just threw in an estimate of 10 minutes in for the updated plan bc I have no clue how big they are and how much each one has to do. Goal is to go to as many of them as possible.
I was really sad, but it is closed for upgrades to the animatronics when I will be there.
HS day 2
I removed Star Tours and swaped it for the Green Army Drum Corp. The Villains show looks like it will be pretty fun.
I had to fight the plan a bit to get the First order show in the same time frame as the other star was features. Tt wanted me to walk 12 minutes back and forth just to watch the show for some reason.

I know! I was really sad about that, but not much to do other than optimize the time we have.
I think I can either do the safari or do the trail and still get to see EE. Is one better for seeing the animals than the other?
Unfortunately not. So sad, the birds look absolutly beutiful.
Very cool! I hope that someone else comments as well. ![]()
There arenāt any official parades at Epcot. I donāt think the break you have accounts for location / walking looking at the times - I would probably try to use an American Adventure pavilion stop if you can. Otherwise, just try to account for walking from the entrance plus walking to France in the break time.
They do - I think only Orange goes to Mars? I have only gone on Green and was not a fan (too claustrophobic) so I canāt really say which to do. I donāt think Iāve read of people doing both much unless they have extra time to spare.
I personally think twice on Living with the Land is a lot, especially when Glimmering Greenhouses isnāt on. However, LwtL is not my favorite attraction, so you might want a second opinion.
Hmmā¦looking at recent reports, @ThorKat and @kfkennedy1 went recently during FArts and @drvillarejos loves LwtL, so I will start by tagging them. ![]()

I personally would prioritize JoW and Spaceship Earth lights over LwtL after dark, no question.
If youāre just doing Pirate Adventure because you love Pirates, then DuckTales are certainly skippable.
If you do want to try it, I think you would have time in Japan with waiting for Matsuriza? The process sends you to a couple places in the pavilion for interaction and then usually one final effect. If you skip quickly through the story / exposition, it shouldnāt take more than 10 minutes. You can do a step or two then pause, watch some Matsuriza, and do the final step.
Depends on if you spend any time in the shops, but I think 10 is a pretty good quick walk around baseline. You could probably get Kidcot cards in that time if interested / no line.
I would add a little more time in Germany if snacking there (they both have mobile order though).
I had some notes above and am happy to answer questions - my last trip had a lot of WS puttering. ![]()
You skip peeking at Norway and America. The American pavilion isnāt that exciting, but I do love the show if you can manage it.
You spend a lot of walking time going from Land to Canada to Mexico for nachos. I would think about if you could eat from Festival carts in the hub / near Canada?
You could have issues with Luminous views if you try to find a spot so close to the show (unless youāre tall
).
Iām really hoping that single rider lines save you a bunch of time. ![]()
For AK:
I think probably Safari.
Hmmm. Iāve never made it to LwtL after dark!!! I know. Blasphemy. I would absolutely love to ride it at night. But also, Iāve never seen the ball at night and am dying to. I donāt know the specifics of the trip but I would try to do all 3! In face that might be the goal ofu next trip- stay in FW after dark. Itās not like a nighttime show. I think you can accomplish all three in an hour and a half tops, two hours if you want to linger.
I do love LwtL though. So I would have a hard time swapping it for the lights on SE. Iād really try to do both. JoW is nice but would be my first cut.
!! You must! It is my most magical moment, probably tied with HEA.
. I love the Epcot theme.
(Granted, I am the outlier who never makes rope drop because I love all the parks after dark the most.
)
I donāt typically rope drop either. Honestly I have no idea how I keep missing it. I havenāt stayed in Epcot after dark in a couple years. If I keep my March trip I will make it a point to see it. We wonāt even be going to World Showcase. Itās a very short trip, lol.
Itās not just the storylines. Orange has the spinning to feel like higher gās. If youāre prone to motion sickness, thatās the one to avoid. Green does not have any spinning, itās gentler.
Also, FEA looks like it opens back up on Feb 12, according to articles citing Disneyās site which shows hours of operation starting then. You miss it this trip, but not by much. Next timeā¦
