I noticed last Sunday that Fast Passes for Buzz Lightyear were no longer available. I asked a CM who told me that, yes, they would come back, ultimately. But she didn't know when. Does anyone have further information?
 
When I rode it over the weekend, the inside corridor where the FP line meets up with the stand-by line was all walled off. I was guessing that they were doing some kind of maintenance work, which interfered with the FP line/queue so they had to temporarily stop using FPs.
 
When the crowds are light, they usually don't do FP for Buzz. In 2013, 2014, and even into 2015, I never saw FP for Buzz. But then in the summer and during busy Veteran's Day week of 2015, they took over a few of the Star Tour's kiosks. I'm guessing they use convert them during the busy times. But when crowds are light, Buzz is usually a 5-15 minute wait, so it doesn't need the FP. That's my theory, anyway.
 
I asked on Friday last week. The CM said they were doing work on the FP machines (he didn't say exactly what). He said there would be no FPs for Buzz for about three weeks.
 

They're back as of 10-2-16 :-). Still couldn't break my high score yesterday, though :-(.
