Fantasmic Questions?

[Sharron379]

We are going to WDW during the week of Nov. 15-22nd. We were planning on doing Fantasmic on November 21st, but all the restaurants are sold out for Fantasmic dining. The show is early at 6:30, but we have always done Fantasmic dining in order to get better seats. Do we really have to line up one hour before the show for good seats? If we use fast pass will it count as one of our three passes for the day? What is the best strategy for Fantasmic. We booked our vacation this week before free dining offer came out because of low crowds. I hope the crowds still stay LOW!!!

1. Yes, for the first show anyway. If that's the only show that night, then definitely.

2. Yes.

You can always use your 4th, 5th, etc. Fastpass of the day for Fantasmic. For the first showing, all seating sections to the left of the center Dinng sections are reserved for Fp holders.

Are you sure they are sold out of Fantasmic packages? There was something funky going on with Fantasmic packages on the website past Nov. 1 and no one could reserve anything online, but if you called you could get lunch packages. Dinner packages were all being held, but the CMs didn't know why. Try calling and see if you can get something!

I think this is great advice. It seems a little early to me for FDPs to be sold out already for a night in mid-November.

I also find it hard to believe that all the dining packages are sold out for November. I would call to be sure.

I am going in November and found with the early Fantasmic time of 6:30 they only offered lunch at Mama Melrose to go with the show.

I would definitely call to get a reservation booked. This happened to us and was unable to book something on line so we called in and we immediately got a reservation for lunch. So make sure to call.
