I am wondering how much fastpass+ helps with the wait for Fantasmic?
We have not attempted Fantasmic yet due to our sons' issues (ASD, high anxiety, trouble with enclosed spaces, people in close proximity, large crowds, "herding" situations, fear of germs, foods, sensory issues etc.). Waiting in a line surrounded by people and then entering a stadium full of people to wait even longer would be a lot to ask of them, especially in an evening when they are not at their best to begin with (they are both morning guys). But they would like to try to see the show on our upcoming December 2014 trip if at all possible.
I am wondering exactly how getting a fastpass + for Fantasmic works to reduce the wait? Would we be ok showing up only 10-20 minutes prior to the show?
We don't really care about getting the best seats, although avoiding the splash zone would be better than not because of sensory issues, and an aisle seat would be ideal in case we had to leave suddenly.
Note: I am not sure if we will request a DAS on this trip. We have had a GAC on previous trips, but my sons are feeling VERY overwhelmed and mortified about the idea of discussing their issues (or allowing me to discuss them) with a stranger at guest services in order to request the card, so I am going to let them make the final decision on how to handle their needs. So without a DAS are you able to request aisle seating for this, or how would that work?
Thanks for the help!
