I FP Space, and then go for BTMR and Splash. I don't usually do the mright in a row, though, I try to breakit up with some other rides in between.

well i get there early in the morning when the park first opens if im going for the mountains
i head to tomorrowland first getting a fastpass and riding space mountain. then i pass all the less popular rides for thunder, as it populates faster in the morning because splash is a bit less popular in the cooler morning temperatures. after thunder i usually get a fastpass for splash and mossy about the park and just get to the other things
since i travel as one person i can get everything done in one day. with luck anyways.
hope that helped but i doubt it did.

I do Space first, then Buzz and work my way counter clock-wise through Fantasyland, and eventually down to Adventureland.

I usually do splash and big thunder first. The reason is I dont mind waiting in the que of Space mountain in the air conditioning and in the dark.

It depends on if you are doing the morning EMH....if thats the case Splash is not open yet, so I get on Space about 20 times in a row to get my fill of it and then hit the others when the park opens.

We always head to Adventureland first the go to Frontierland. Whichever one has the shortest line we go to first and FP the other one. Last time we rode BTMRR about 5 times before we got on Splash. The lines were short on Mother's Day last year!
We're leaving in 9 days for our next trip!! I'm sure the lines will be a little longer in June!

On the two trips I've been on, my family head to Tomorrowland first, and then go around the park clockwise, going to Fantasyland next. So we ride Space Mountain first, but I don't suppose there's any one that you should do first.

I would say Space Mountain (it is closer to the entrance & you won't get wet 1st thing in the morning)

I always get there rather early, and (depending on the weather of course) I get a FP for Splash Mountain, and wait in line for Big Thunder Mountain, as long as the wait time is 20 minutes or less for BTM. If it's like a 30 to 60 minute wait, I'll get my Splash FP, and then head over to PotC.

If I arrive when the park opens - I go for PotC, Big Thunder and then grab a FP for Space. While waiting to use FP I do any photos that I want. After Space get a FP for Splash. That way you can cool off in the afternoon. If I arrive mid day, Space, Splash, Thunder ist he order.

I would really do splash first. What good is getting wet in the afternoon if you had to wait 60 min to get wet ?
Spacemountain is perfect in the heat since the que is indoors.

We usually do Splash Mountain first then Thunder Mountain. We do Space Mountain at night because that is when we go to Tomorrowland.

We do Splash first and as many times as we possibly can. I love Space Mountain but we usually save it for last because I am very prone to motion sickness and SM wreaks havoc on my equilibrium. :hurl: After SM i'm usually in no shape to ride anything else...at least not for a few hours. I love it though and wish I could ride it more. I really love Big Thunder too! Anyone else have the same problem I do on SM?:veryconfu
