Cool tip for Fastpass runners

Great idea!!! No more dropping tickets on the ground and getting all confused

The machines are similar to the WDW ones, but the only difference is that the DLR ones do not eat your ticket for that slight second, and there's no little tray to catch the FPs. What the OP is saying is to speed things up a bit, you can stuff all the tickets into the little slot (one by one though), and the machine will print that many FPs. And this will work for the credit card type of tickets as well.

ok got it thanks

Think about newer ATM machines, or credit card readers on a gas pump. You insert your card and pull it right back out without letting go. Same concept here. The bar code is at one end of the ticket. You insert that end into the slot with the bar code facing UP. The code is read and the fastpass ticket immediately spits out from a different slot, which, as PP stated, lacks a tray of any sort to catch the ticket

Instead of pulling the admission ticket back out, stick it in the slot as far as it will go and LET GO. There will be about 3/4" that you were previously holding onto sticking out. Take the second admission ticket and feed it face up right on top of the first ticket. Second fastpass will spit out. Repeat this process until all tickets have been scanned. You will now have a neatly organized stack of park tickets in the slot, that you pull out all at once.

The ticket slot has to be thick to accommodate the plastic type tickets and APs. That's why multiple paper tickets will fit like this. I had 6 tickets which fit just fine. I'm not sure if you can feed more than this, or how many plastic type tickets will fit at once. Hope this helps.

For those needing a visual of the machine, maybe this will help? About Fastpass

ah ha....watched the videos..still can't imagine fitting more than one plastic hard ticket in the slot....so this must be for people who have the paper passes, right?
its not the end of the world for us....we are taking my 3 yr old neice and this trip will have an entirely different pace
