Hey everyone, was wondering if i could get some advice on where to start the day.
keeping in mind i have FP to peter pan, 7DMT, and space mountain in the afternoon...

planning to arrive at rope drop,
would it be better to start at BTM, then splash, then pirates, and then jungle cruise... or reverse order?

the other option would be to start off at haunted mansion, then small world, then winnie, then little mermaid... or reverse order?

which of the 2 would have lesser wait times later in the day?

thank you!!!

The ideal course would be to visit MK on two mornings - start one in Adventureland/Frontierland and the other in Fantasyland. However, if this is the only MK rope drop you've got, I'd do:
Peter Pan and Pooh (both have very slow loading times and small capacity, and take only a couple of minutes each to ride - lines will build fast and stay long all day)
Haunted Mansion (since you'll have to walk by it, to get to the rest...)
Big Thunder Mountain
Splash Mountain
POTC
Jungle Cruise

THEN:
Work your way back through each land (including Little Mermaid, it's a small world).

Personally, I'd do BTM and SM... providing its not too cold at that time in the morning for splash. Then go back to POTC and JC.
I used to go to Space MT and then Buzz. However, the last time we did Splash the BTM first and worked our way forward. It worked out great. We had FP for SM, Buzz & Jungle Cruise in the afternoon.

Definitely 7 Dwarves Mine Train. It has the highest waits at MK, and you'll only be able to ride it at rope drop, (unless you want to wait over an hour).

I would do BTMRR, then Splash, then the rest. Your odds are better to get your extra FP+'s for the other rides later in the afternoon.
