Just wanted to pop in here and update on how this went for my friend. It was a successful late arrival day with LLMP and LLSP. Just to note that because ALL LLMP/LLSP bookings opened the day before, there was an advantage in this instance of being off site which most won’t be able to take advantage of BUT while I was booking/modifying throughout the day, I did see a lot of availability pop up for everything, including SDD (I did not note any perceived drops or try to utilize drop times, I just did a lot of refreshing when I needed to find a specific ride or to move a time).
MPLL and SPLL (as well as handling all the LL booking/modifying was part of my wedding gift to them) so on Wed. at 7am I was able to book:
SPLL RotR 1:30p
MPLL TSMM 1:45p
MPLL SDD 2:30p
MPLL ToT 4:10p
They planned to arrive for a 1:10p Savi’s, had a 6:15 Oga’s and planned to leave after that (which stressed me out a bit).
They arrived a little early, around noon, stopped to rent a scooter, then popped into Muppets, grabbed a Bacardi Coke slushy and then headed to Savi’s. From there, they went to RotR at 1:50 and unfortunately it went down right before the got on (they got an MEP). So I sent them to TSL so I could book more MPLLs as soon as possible.
They tapped into TSMM at 2:30p and I was able to get them a MFSR @ 6:40p which I was able to modify to 5:10 (with a plan to return to Batuu and ride both rides before Oga’s.
Then they tapped into SDD at 2:45pm. I wanted RnRC for them but there was no availabilty (and it looked like the ride kept going down all day?) so I grabbed a ST with an immediate 3p RT.
They wanted to break for food so I modified that to 4p.
They also decided they were going to skip ToT so I modified that to a 5:15p MMRR (again unable to find RnRC) as a sort of placeholder/maybe ride (because they had limited time and were 2 adults, I didn’t include it in my plan).
They squeezed in RotR using the MEP and then tapped into ST @ 4:20p. I ferociously started refreshing to try to get them a RnRC because they wanted to ride. I’m not sure how long it took me to find it (an hour maybe?) but I finally found a 9:10p RnRC that I was able to modify down to 7:20p that they could use on their way out of the park after Oga’s.
They opted not to use MMRR and returned to Batuu and walked around a bit and took pictures. Then tapped into MFSR @ 5:30p before heading to Oga’s.
I had gotten them everything they needed and had to go to bed (I work overnights) so I sent a goodnight text at this point. I woke up and could see that they didn’t end up using RnRC MPLL. Ugh. 
I feel like, overall this was a success and gives hope to off-siters and late arrivers to still get good LL availability and get a good amount accomplished.
