clarification on FPasses?

[LBKMAMA]

How many FP can you get at one time? I've never really been clear on this, but we are going in Sept and if it is crowded I want to be sure I use the system correctly. I'd appreciate the clarification ....thanks

Kind of a loaded question...you can always have at least one in your possesion, and depending on your window at least two.

The scenario for two: You get a fastpass for Space Mountain at 9 AM with a return time of 10 to 11 am. At 10:01 you go to Buzz and get a new fast pass, at that moment you've got two FPs.

For more than two...grab all you can when the window opens for your next one. You can generally use expired fast passes with no problem. Meaning, you use that SM FP at 3PM rather than between 10 and 11. In that sense, you can hold multiple fastpasses until late in the day.

"Legally" there's no limit on how many you can have at once, you just need to get one as soon as your window opens. I suppose depending on the timing of your attractions you could easily have three or four.

You can get a new one whenever your window opens or in two hours, whichever comes first, actually.

When you get your FP, it will tell you the time when you are allowed to get another FP right on your ticket. It is usually a few minutes after the start of the window for FP. For example, if your window is 9:30-10:30, it will say you can get another FP at 9:35 or so.

If your FP return time is later than 2 hours away from when you got the FP, you can get another FP before your return time. Say you get the FP at 12:00 but your return time isn't until 3:30. The ticket will tell you that you can get your next FP at 2:00. Sounds confusing but just read the ticket when you get it and it's pretty easy to follow.
