Rope Drop Strategy | How the Pros save 2+ hours in your day

[@aseainfo]

There is nothing better then watching a man who loves his craft and goes to "work" with a big smile on his face. David you are living the dream!

[@VegasGoldenJediKnight]

the first 2 hours at disneyland are HUGE. the peter pan rope drop is hella fun to watch though. i was at the front of the line a few weeks ago and got lapped and almost trampled by the masses. 😂 i've talked to a few CM's in fantasyland about that and they've said that they've seen their lives flash before their eyes at times. it's pretty crazy! lol

[@itstrue247]

"Oh jeez, this is fun!" Was soooooo cute!!!

[@naderzein2435]

19:00 that kid going "Oh Jeeze, this is fun!" Is awesome.

[@CaliforniaDreamin.]

I was the person who said hi to you at Thunder Mountain queue. I didn’t realize I was interrupting you mid-sentence! 😅

[@dankohlmeier6081]

Love your videos, but my rope drop strategy was the opposite of yours. I hit all of the non LL attractions I could at rope drop before the crowds came and used Lightning Lanes later for the big attractions. It worked great! I had short waits for everything I went on. I think your strategy is good if you don’t care about Fantasyland as much or are willing to go to Fantasyland late at night when the crowds start thinning out. But Fantasyland in the late morning and afternoon has long waits for almost everything and strollers everywhere.

[@Maxx-carnage]

You missed the point. His strategy is for people NOT paying for Genie+. That gets expensive for large families

[@Praetorian8]

Fantasyland attraction wait times are usually 15-35 minutes during the day (Peter Pan can get to 50). Meanwhile, the waits for the E-tickets are usually 60+. So the time savings by rope dropping E-tickets is much greater. I went on Saturday and did, Rise, Indy, BTMRR, Mansion, Splash, Pooh, and Space by 10:30. After that the rest of the day was a breeze because I could largely avoid the crowds trying to do E-tickets. Combining Genie+ basically allows you the ability to do the big attractions 2-3 times. It really depends on your goals though. If you have little kids, then it makes sense to rope drop Fantasyland.

[@dankohlmeier6081]

@@Maxx-carnage Possibly. I never heard him say that it was to avoid paying for GENIE+. I thought it was well worth every penny.

[@Doggeslife]

Screw genie+. Waste of money. Always hit the long line rides first, hit everything else in mid-day, then the big rides again late in the evening when lines get smaller. Save your money for the $12 burgers and $6 cokes.

Awww. that kid's voice toward the end of Big Thunder saying "oh jeez, this is fun!" LOL! That's what life's about, man! :)

[@hamiltoncox7651]

David, you neglect to mention the upfront time cost. In order to get to the front of the rope, you have to be one of the first to the gate. In order to be first at the gate, you have to be on the first tram. In order to be on the first tram you have to be one of the first at the parking kiosk. So be at parking by 6:30 am and wait 30 minutes until it opens. Get to the gate at 7:10 and wait 20 minutes until it opens. Rush to the rope and wait another 25 minutes until drop. You have now spent one hour and twenty minutes before your first ride. The real benefit of spending that time is to avoid the massive crowds that saunter in around 11:00.

[@Maxx-carnage]

All valid points, but getting there early and waiting over an hour while the temp is nice and chill is better than standing in the hot sun on a 90 degree day

[@cooldadsupreme]

Hamilton, you must be a carpenter. Cus you nailed it.

[@Doggeslife]

I don't need to rush the rope the moment I get in. There may be people in front of me, but not many. The ride lines are still walk-right-through with little to no waiting. I don't need to be the very first person to climb aboard. I just want to avoid standing in line for long periods, and that goal is reached.

We also did, big thunder, haunted mansion, splash mountain, Indy, and Rise all before 1pm then headed to DCA. Rope drop is definitely the way to go without genie+. Thanks for your great videos David! I finally made it into one of them aha (I’m the one with the Nike back pack going into Matterhorn)

[@ZO5150]

Loved the Matterhorn in my youth. It literally ruined last half of my Disney trip last year. Jacked up my back! Second half of day 2 gone. Cashed in my chips and spent the rest of the day at DCA drowning my sorrows. It actually wasn’t a total loss. Came back and got a walk in to Blue Bayou!

[@StanH315]

I find that not leaning back on Matterhorn (sitting up and holding the bar) is a lot easier on my back.

[@pandaheero]

Heyyy I saw you yesterday with my dad (He was in the wheelchair with the yellow safety vest) when you were getting off the omnibus bus. After a year of following you, we finally saw you in the park!! YAY!! We've been in the park at the same time but never had the pleasure of spotting you to say hi. :) We had some time left before we had to leave, but we decided to just leave instead of trying to squeeze anoth er ride in, and then we saw you, which just made our morning! :D We also kinda "roped" dropped yesterday !!! :D I went to Space Moutain after we rode in on the Monorail into Disneyland. it was a 28 min wait when I got in line at 8:11. I rode space mount on Thursday with my friend at 10:15am and it was a 30 min wait. When I saw the line after I stopped walking in the queue it was a little longer than when I waited on Thursday but I figured there wasn't going to be many LL passes going through so I figured it was going to be the same time I waited a few days earlier and I was right it was a little less than 30 mins! Always fun to see your videos and looking forward to enjoying what you have planned for future videos too!

[@pandaheero]

OHH also, you can hear my dad yell freshbaked in the background at 21:11 when you are saying thank you. hehehehee

[@alextirrellRI]

Glad you brought up single rider. I usually visit parks on solo trips and I do single rider when possible, though it can be disappointing to miss out on certain queue elements at times. I was surprised to find out that Space Mountain no longer has single rider -- it definitely did on my last visit, and I was so thrilled to essentially walk off the ride and get back into Single Rider. I've done WDW twice now since my last visit to Disneyland, and I'm definitely thinking about Disneyland before I ever do WDW again--it's definitely a different vibe!

[@lovinlorne]

When we rope drop, which is 99% of the time, we hit Alice first thing, followed by Toad, Snow White and Pinocchio. After that it gets a bit more flexible. Sometimes we go straight to the Haunted Mansion, sometimes we hit Indy, depending on the wait times. After that it’s whatever looks best. We rarely go to RoTR that early, since everyone runs there first. But if it’s between 55-75 minutes we’ll do it. One day we rope dropped and ran all across the park “Willy nilly”. We got on everyone of the big ticket rides (minus The Matterhorn) plus all of the Fantasyland rides before 12pm. After that it was lunch, and then casual re-rides of favorites. Rope drop is really the only way to go.

[@user-tq7uw8cn4d]

You can do all of fantasy land in less than 30 min if you skip PP.

[@lovinlorne]

@@user-tq7uw8cn4d - We haven’t bothered with it in ages. We love it, but it’s just not worth the wait unless you’re willing to sacrifice everything else.

[@apriladams4596]

Whenever we would rope drop, we use this strategy. Pre-covid we'd head over to DCA after doing all the big DL rides, around 10 or 11am, with fast passes (using max pass) for their biggest attractions and be able to get ALL big resort rides done by noon or 1pm. The inability to park hop until 1:00 has ruined that for us. We also add Haunted Mansion in the early morning mix as that is one of my favorites that I could ride all day long.

[@alexiswaters6782]

I know, the 1 pm rule really throws a wrench into things!

[@Maxx-carnage]

If you buy Genie+ then the 1pm switch isn't so bad because you pay for it once but use it in both parks.

[@Squeebop]

I like to close my eyes and remember when you didn't have to pay for genie + to use fast pass and when you paid for park hopper you didn't have to wait until 1pm. Those were good days...

[@timkneebone347]

Can you do one for DCA? Thank you for all that you do!

[@user-tq7uw8cn4d]

My plan for DCA is to RD GotG, then single ride cars (single ride is walk on), and single ride spider man. Then onto increadicoaster, line usually 10 min, swinging gondolas, about 10 min wait, goofy sky school, about 10-15.

[@partymonkeyonetsy4854]

Such great tips! Thank you! I’ve been watching wait times at home and planning a strategy on my own and it’s almost identical to this! I love the idea of a relaxing time at 10am when it starts to fill up in the queues.

[@SuzyQEyezOfBlue]

This is my fave way to do my day! We hit Disneyland and get a bunch of big ticket items, then head to DCA for a beverage and people watching. Also, incredicoaster is usually not too bad. 😀

Another good time to go on rides is during the night time shows. We were at the parks Dapper Day weekend (also the weekend when the night time show returned) and walked on to Space, Matterhorn, Buzz and Star Tours. Another good time to do Peter Pan is after the fireworks. We did this and only waited about 10 or 15 minutes to ride. We did Rise, got in line at 7:30 pm and were in the Ray room at 8 pm. Post wait was 65 minutes. I am with you FB, do LL rides the first 2 hours, then enjoy everything else. Finish what LL rides you didn’t go on in the evening durning the shows.

[@TheGypsyGirl77]

If you love the LL rides and want to do them more than once without long waits def so David’s strategy. Since Genie Plus only allows one time per each ride than best to get there first thing and go without the LL. It makes sense! Do the LL later in the day when the crowds come.

I went from Space to Indy. Indy was down, so we went on Pirates & a lady on the boat said Indy was back online, so we did that. Then Splash before it got hot, then Smugglers Run, then Rise, then Haunted Mansion - with a fast pass we got when Splash broke down at the end by Briar Rabbit, but couldn't use at Galaxy's Edge, (but they let us go to the front of Smugglers Run anyway, so we didn't miss our boarding time for Rise) & then Big Thunder. We did the Matterhorn after the fireworks, plus single rider twice. Lol! 😂

[@kato223]

I agree with the getting there early to avoid needing the LIghtnight Lane / Genie+ to maximize your day. In April we did not get the Genie+ at all and were still able to get on absolutely every ride we wanted to. I believe we were able to get on RoR every day that we were there. We found that sometimes you just have to be in the right place at the right time. We just finished lunch at the Hungry Bear and had heard that RoR had just reopened and when we got there it was a walk on. Great info David!

After going to Magic Kingdom, 30 mins for Peter Pan sounds like a dream.

You arrived at a prime time to get at the rope area for Peter Pan, true if closed it sucks, but Snow White is up across the way. Your choices are also great for the G+ LL users who want to experience those same attractions twice.

Last visit we stayed within walking distance of the entrance. Got in at gate opening. Went to the train station and caught the first train to New Orleans Square (before official rope drop time), jumped on Pirates, and then Haunted Mansion. We were off HM and back in daylight before 9:30AM! Take the train!!! 😀

[@ctpctp]

Oh yeah, and then we went straight over to Indiana Jones. Minimal line, and then the ride broke just as we entered the building. All the guests waiting in the line outside cleared out, and we just hung out at the doorway to the inside queue for about a half hour. Pretty sweet relaxing time with a nice view. Once they fixed it we did the long walk basically by ourselves down to the room where the movie is running.

I purposely rope dropped Storybook. Not the choice for most I know. But they have an actual book that the first rider gets to sign. My 9 year old thought that writing her name in the official Storybook was the best thing ever. We then did 5 more fantasyland rides in under an hour.

Do you have a plan of attack for rides from 12:30 to park close?

[@chadwpalm]

I think this is a good strategy for specific situations. If you don't have young kids, don't plan to get Genie+, and are going for one day, then this could be useful. As a vacationer, I obviously want to maximize my time in the parks, but I'll usually get multi-day parkhopper paired with Genie+ and prefer not to go through the stress of waking up early and rushing around all morning tiring myself out early in the day. To each their own though!

[@23alanmr]

Went on a Saturday with my 7.5 yr old daughter. We spent the night at a Good Neighbor motel. Hung around downtown Disney for dinner, walked around, and then turned in. Got to rope drop on Saturday around 7:30 am and hit Peter Pan for 15 min wait. Then did almost every single ride in the park using combination of genie plus, single rider, and bought rise of resistance. We missed on Autopia, Dumbo, and Storybook canals because we bought souvenirs at Club 33 and needed to wait an hour for the member to meet us and also burned 2 hrs waiting for Main Street Electrical Parade. We went home after the Disneyland Forever Fireworks. So if you are willing to spend the money you can do literally almost everything even on busiest day. Remember we left over 3 hrs on the table and 10 pm to midnight is often as good as 8 am to 10 am for wait times. But I had a 7 yr old and after 14 hrs she was a little tired. 😉
