    Heard some FP kiosks were uncovered in MK today

    I've done all three systems multiple times having lived in both Florida and California. I liked Maxpass the best, as we were able to utilize it well, especially towards the end of the day. It was also less stressful ahead of time. I found it worth the $$. Of course, Disneyland is a different...

    Is Memory Maker Worth It?

    How much are digital images each? Or where can I find that info? It's been years since I purchased them.

    How close together to schedule FPs?

    How do you move them up? Do you check to see if there are any available that have an earlier time?

    How long are you willing to wait?

    I don't think we've ever gotten on a line that was more than 30 minutes, and 20 is the usual max without a FP. With decent planning, rope drops, and FP, we've been able to hit all of the favorites multiple times most trips.

    Hoop dee doo to MK-can I make my FP time?

    Thanks! I just couldn't remember how long it took from Ft. Wilderness to MK. I agree it would be easier to modify, but I've got 2 right behind it that would have to be modified too. I'd rather not if I don't have to. I will stick with it. If all goes south, I guess I can cancel it and try to...

    Large family’s strategy

    When we have done bigger family vacations, we tend to meet up for dinner every day and then share a few specific activities. The rest of the time, everyone pursues their own interests. It has worked well for us.

    No fastpass grace period anymore?

    I meant that as long as I was at the touchpoint by 7:30, I should be okay. I'm sorry if that was not clear.

    Hoop dee doo to MK-can I make my FP time?

    Yes, after I posted here, I thought it was probably a better question for transportation board but didn't know how to move it. I asked about the grace period because I misunderstood your answer and haven't been to WDW in 7 years. I was wondering if I was wrong about the grace period. I guess I...

    Hoop dee doo to MK-can I make my FP time?

    According to the FP info sticky on the Attractions board and multiple threads, there is an automated 15 minute grace period at the end of the fastpass time. FP return windows for most rides and character M&Gs are 60 minutes long. The FP system normally allows a grace period of 5 minutes...

    No fastpass grace period anymore?

    I was asking on the restaurant and transportation board if I could make a 6:15-7:15 POTC FP after the 4:00 Hoop dee doo show. My hope was that if I gave myself an hour (ends at 6) for the boat, I could be at the gates at 7 and make it. I also mentioned that I had the grace period to give me a...

    No fastpass grace period anymore?

    *fastpass. No coffee yet. Is it true that fast passes don't have a grace period at the end anymore? I thought they were good for 15 minutes past their time, but I'm being told it is not the case.

    Hoop dee doo to MK-can I make my FP time?

    I'm boxed in by other FP times at the moment. I'd have to switch the whole night around, which I'd rather not do if I can make it. If the show lasts until 6 and I give myself an hour for the boat, I should be at the MK gates at 7. That should work. As I understand it, they give you a 15 minute...

    Thoughts on itinerary?

    It turns out that sunset is 8:20 at that time of year! Yay! I did a little research and read that right before sunset is a time when the animals are really active and the light is still good. I was able to bump the fast passes on both nights down to 7:30 to take advantage of the light. Thanks...

    Ticket Question

    I had a discount through my union, but I found better prices on Undercover Tourist. They are very reputable. I would check it out. If the discount is just as good as UT, you might purchase the tickets yourself to make sure you get them in time for that very important 60 day mark.

    Thoughts on itinerary?

    We are at AK only at night on this trip. Maybe I should swap one out for something else? Or should I aim for 5-6pm? It's still late, but at least daylight.

    Hoop dee doo to MK-can I make my FP time?

    I want to book the 4:00 Hoop-Dee-Doo that ends around 6:00 but I have a 6:15 FP at POTC. I would have to be at the entry to POTC by 7:30 at the absolute latest. Is that a do-able timetable? I think I could make it to the MK gates by 7:00 if I took the boat, but I could Uber if that would be...

    Hoop dee doo to MK-can I make my FP time?

    I want to book the 4:00 Hoop-Dee-Doo but I have a 6:15 FP at POTC. So I would have to be at the entry to POTC by 7:30 at the absolute latest. Is that a do-able timetable? I would assume I could make it to the gates by 7:00 if I took the boat, but I could Uber if that would be faster. Any help...

    Thoughts on itinerary?

    Thanks, we're hoping to find some balance between hitting the parks hard and having a relaxing vacation where we don't die of heat stroke. I think we'll be eating at a lot of counter service and vendor food.

    Thoughts on itinerary?

    We are coming in Sunday 6/3 late evening and staying at BC. We have been to WDW but not for 7 years. We have been to DL many times in the past few years, so probably focus on rides not at DL. Kids are 14 and 17. Bolded are fast passes. I wanted to maximize what cooler temperatures we can. We are...
