Regarding Dee's updated list, I see nothing has changed other than there being a TBD opening where Biergarten was. So, my opinion doesn't change.
As far as hoppers vs non hoppers, I'm always in the pro hopper camp.
One thing to keep in mind with me is that I've never had a non hopper ticket, going back to 96 and certainly have had no restrictions since 2005 when we got our first premium AP.
I'm a firm believer in the ability to change parks and often will be in at least 2 parks in a day. But I realize it's different for different families or even the same family under different constraints (time, budget, etc).
