EE and Fastpass. Please calrify.

If the park opens at 9am, but we have EE so we can get in a 8am, can we pick up a fastpass for Buzz on the way to Peter Pan? How early can you begin to collect fastpasses? Do you have to wait until 9am, official park opening time?

TTMM - It starts at 9am, same time as park opening. Can we pick up a fastpass for Roger Rabit or do we have to wait until they officially open TT at 10am?

Usually fastpasses aren't available until the line is past 5-10 minutes long. For instance, when we get in at 9, we usually still cannot get a Buzz fastpass until about 9:45 - 10am. We usually ride Buzz, Star Tours and Autopia and then get fastpasses.

It will probably be the same for Roger Rabbit but once you ride that during TTMM, you probably won't need to again. There's only two rides back there, you can hit them both a few times during your hour!

The FP machines are not turned on until regular park hours (at the earliest). You cannot get FPs during EE. I do not know about getting RR FPs during TTMM.

I know DS will want to go to all the meet and greet houses during TTMM, so we may have to come back to RR later in the day.

Good to know about the FP machines and the times they start. Thanks!

You will have plenty of time to do it all during Morning Madness. We did. Just to let you know, it is all concrete back there and SUPER hot. My ds was ill it was so hot, and we went in Oct. Just wanted to let you know, i had no Idea it was so bad!

You are not kidding. I have a picture of my family taken in September of 2004 back in MTT. It was an unusually hot day (high in the 90's) and back there it was miserable. We all look flushed, wilted and miserable!

Last August we were there and it wasn't bad at all. I hope the weather is warm in a few weeks when we go.

I guess I don't remember correctly, but we had to stand in line to meet Mickey and Minnie, I am guessing about 15 minutes each. That took up a big chunk of time. So by the time we got to Donald's boat, Chip n Dale's tree house, we had to stand in line for the two rides back there. This trip, I am going to try to get in and out of TT before the mad rush of people.

If EE is like it used to be, they don't let you into all parts of the park during the EE, so that makes most of those FP machines off-limits anyway. TT doesn't allow ANYONE in before their later opening time and there are gates across the underpass to TT, so you can't even get back there. Tomorrowland was basically empty except for the counterservice food (breakfast) which I never understood wasting EE on this.

Basically, count on getting Fantasyland out of the way during EE and not plan on getting to other parts until park opening.
