Disconnected FastPasses

[taxmom04]

I thought I remember hearing on these boards about certain attractions
in WDW with FastPass that will allow you to immediately get another FP at another attraction. Is this sporadic or on-going? Please help. Thanks!

The new Stunt car show at MGM lets you get another pass immediately when we were there 2 weeks ago. Problem is that's it's so far from other things that it takes a hike across the park to get them. I don't think there are any others that are always like that.

We tried in June/July to get fast passes right away because of a post I read. No luck at any of the parks. One thing I did find out, if this helps, you do not have to be back at the attraction at the alotted time. If your fast pass says between 1p.m and 2p.m. you can show up any time after 1 up to closing of the park. I wish I had known this before because we would usually hang around that area. This past time we got our fast passes and move onto another section and then later on in the day we went back. It will state on the fast pass when you can get another fast pass.

1) This does happen.
2) In fact, with some Fast Passes you get a free pass to another ride. *
3) This is done at the same time as the 1st FP is issued.


* At specific times, with specific circumstances and on specific rides.

We even used a fast pass the following day. When the cm looked at it and said that it was not time yet, i told her that it was a fast pass for the day before and we had been rained out so she looked at the date of the fast pass, said ok & told us to go ahead & get in line.

Be careful about not going during your alloted time. Must CM are great about letting you in, but I have been told by many CMs that it is up to the discretion of the CM to let this happen. They also said that it can vary from ride to ride.

I don't know about that but one time at the Indiana Jones ride at Disneyland, I stuck my ticket into the fastpass machine and it malfunctioned...gave me a few dozen fast passes. Needless to say I took 3 or 4 and laid the others on top of the machine for others to enjoy. It was kinda nice to ride a few times with no wait.

A management type CM (you could tell by his actions and his dress) heard my son fretting in line one day about missing his fastpass window for another ride. He came over and volunteered the information that you can always use them after the time stated, just not before. He repeated this a couple of times to reassure DS10.

Don't bank on this method. We were at WDW in June and really tried to make our fast passes work for us regardless of when we got them. We were also told that it is up to the CM how strict they will or won't be. We had no trouble using them outside of the window of time ON THE SAME DAY. However, a couple of times we tried to use them the next day and were denied. One CM let us in on a little secret though. If you do use it on a different day, try to use it during the time stated on the FP, chances are they would be less likely to look at the date then. Hope this "working the system" doesn't rattle any chains!

the lights, motor action show at mgm is the only fastpass I've heard of that lets you get another fastpass at the same time
