Anoyne tried to get GAD Fast Pass Exchange Cards after 11:00am?

Has anyone tried to get the GAD Fast Pass Exchange Cards after 11:00 a.m.?

If so, at what time and what park did you get them (or not get them, as the case may be)?

We're aiming to get some at MK on our arrival day this Friday at about 4:00 p.m.

We got our GAD fastpasses at DHS around 1pm on 3/3. They are great!!!

Are you asking if all the GAD FP cards have been given out for the day at X time?

I'm not 100% sure but I havn't seen any reports on here of not being able to get the GAD FP exchange b/c they were all given out for the day.

ETA: Peak times havn't really rolled around yet, with the exception of Presidents week, so it may be too early to get alot of experience with a high level of GAD FP exchanges during busy times, so maybe spring break/ easter will be a better indicator of how many GAD FP exchange cards will be available.

Super, thanks for the info.

Did you get 3 "Donald" attractions and 3 "Daisy" attractions for each Fast Pass Exchange Card?

I also haven't seen any reports here of anyone being denied FP Exchange Cards because they were gone for the day, but I don't think I've read any reports from anyone who tried to get them later than 11:00 a.m.

So I'm glad to hear that magicalfoursome was able to get them at 1:00.

Good point about Spring Break being a better indicator, so maybe we will be the guinea pigs for that, as we will probably be trying to get them at about 4:00 on March 12, March 14, and March 17.

g-dadd66, yes we received 3 "Donald" and 3 "Daisy" attractions per person-- we only used one GAD voucher. We used all the Donalds for TSMM. We did not use the Daisy credits at all-- they were not necessary as there were no wait times.

Too bad you couldn't trade in 3 "Daisy" credits for 1 "Donald" to ride TSMM one more time!

Again, thanks for the info.

OP here, and just thought I would offer some feedback to anyone else thinking about redeeming GAD voucher for Fast Pass Exchange Cards late in the day --

We did it twice this past week with no problem. On Friday, March 12, we got the Fast Pass Exchange Cards at Magic Kingdom at about 4:00 p.m., and on Tuesday, March 16, we got them at about 4:00 p.m. at Hollywood Studios.

Each card was good for 3 Donald rides and 3 Daisy rides, just as others have reported, and the list of Donald and Daisy rides for each park was also the same as others have reported.

Good to hear!! I was just looking at the crowd level indicator levels I had printed off the touringplans website...looks like at least some of the days mentioned were at crowd level 7's. That is what WAS predicted for all of our days starting March 27 but now I just looked again & it's revised to a mix of 7, 8 & 9. I'll bet that after 11:00 thing could change on those level 9 days. Maybe. Obviously waiting could be a gamble at any time I guess. But still, good to hear it worked on level 7 days. I wonder if there is a difference between being able to redeem the vouchers for park admission vs fastpasses?

Off topic - this is our first spring break down there...does anybody know what crowd levels are during July & August? Are they usually 7's or are they higher? I didn't subscribe to touringplans I just looked at their numbers...but we usually go during the summer so I was trying to compare in my mind if 7's were about what level we're used to.
