Hi Ann,
Thanks for stopping by with your question about how to make the most of your time at
Epcot. I think you are on the right track, but only if the day you plan to visit is one when Epcot has morning
Extra Magic Hours. On those days,
Soarin' is one of the attractions that opens at 8 a.m. for Walt Disney World resort guests.
If you are in line when Soarin' opens at 8 during Extra Magic Hours, you should have time to enjoy the trip around the world and get to an 8:25 breakfast upstairs at
Garden Grill.
On all other days, even thought you can enter the park early for your breakfast reservation, Soarin' won't open until 9. In that case, if I really wanted to do Soarin' before breakfast, I'd move my reservation until about 9:40 a.m.
I love the new version of Soarin', which now includes so many amazing sites from China, India, Australia and more. I've ridden it several times and see something new with each viewing. Here's wishing you a magical ride, and please let us know if we can help with any other planning questions as you prepare for your visit!
Wilma
