There is a website that has you put in all of your reservations and tells you whether to get a meal plan.

Has it been determined that it will be Tier 1?
It has not been officially announced. But come on. Frozen Ever After, Soarin', and Test Trek will all be Tier 1. Care to make a wager?
No, I don't. It was a genuine question. I was just curious if it had been announced.

Definitely get the Disney app and the Touringplans app. Touring plans was awesome - it told us which days were crowded where, and it was always correct so we chose are parks based on that. The apps also tell you which rides have the longest lines and which don't.

Staying in a courtyard view room at Wilderness lodge for 4 nights (leaving mid-morning on the 5th day).
Planning to go to a park on the day of arrival and the 3 days we're fully there. No park hopper, just one park per day. This seems smart and manageable for a first time visit?
Debating the one snack/one quick meal/one seated meal dining plan, which seems limiting and pricey.
Will definitely get the $150 insurance, which covers last minute cancellations in full and includes airfare refunds.
We plan to take the free transit from the airport.
Any words of wisdom?
We didn't do park hoppers, and didn't need it. More than one park was way too exhausting. We did not do a meal plan, because when I added it all up, it turned out not to save any money. It's a lot of work to book all the meals anyway, so I suggest not making it any more complicated with a meal plan. Plus, Wilderness Lodge has a good restaurant (it was my favorite, actually).
