I do not know your situation exactly but can you make your ADRs later in the day. This way you can still do RD, ride whatever has short lines, get FP, they should still be for early times, except TSM, which technically you can just ride at RD. You will be able to ride and use your FP before midday break and when you return in the afternoon you will have your ADR and see if you can do anything else besides fireworks and parades. Depending on when you go FPs can still be available in later hours, we do it all the time(traveling May, August, September and sometimes July, July is the worst). You can also do EMH, if your situation permits, lines are much shorter getting even shorter every minute as people leave the park. Also consider GAC, maybe now that they are more strict with FP, they will be easier on GAC holders.
We do usually get a GAC, but we are travelling with another party on this trip so splitting up is not preferable.
We are also staying offsite so are not eligible for EMH.
We take a break around 2pm each day and may or may not return to parks in pm depending on dd's state. If we do return it is for a brief period. Usually, pm ADR's are harder to make for us due to possibility of stamina issues.
I realize we are a special situation, we will just have to go with a CS each day. It is not the end of the world-just a bit of a different trip for us than usual. I am absolutely positive that with this new no late FP policy we will ride less rides than usual.
We may be able to shuffle FPs depending on less riders than park tickets, but I am still trying to brainstorm on that idea.
