Fast Pass

[Garyjames220]

Hi we are going to be in the parks the start of December

Do we expect rides like slinky, TOT to have wait times of 2-3 hours at least and what do you think It will be around

Also I know your only aloud one ride fast pass there in December. We want to try and do all the rides but what fast pass would you go for

I would like to do the one with the biggest wait time. I’m thinking slinky or TOT. What u guys think

Slinky Dog Dash is probably the best ride to put your single Tier 1 advance fastpass on at Hollywood Studios. It is possible that there will be one or two more rides in the new Star Wars SWGE area that are added to the fastpass list that you might want to select instead and as of today we are not sure of what wait times will be like in December.

Tower of Terror has had humongous lines these past few months because it was being refurbished and some of the elevators were out of service. The refurbishment is now finished and just a few kinks or "breaking in" need to be worked out which should be done in a few weeks and then ToT will be up to full capacity with wait times approximating Rock & Roller Coster or Alien Saucers.

In the advance Fastpass selection chart on line the Tier 1 rides are headed "Please select one." If you had already made a Tier 1 selection for that day then that part of the chart will be empty. The Tier 2 attractions are headed "Other Experiences" and you could select two (or all three if you did not select a Tier 1) advance fastpasses from this group.

If you try to modify your existing Tier 1 selection then selections can appear under "Please select one" when you get to the selection chart. If not, you can do a refresh, repeatedly in quick succession if you wish, and if other guests have cancelled theirs in the meantime then such selections can appear for you. Think of a gambling slot machine. Each time you pull the handle different things might appear on the screen or in the window.

After you used all three advance fastpasses you can select more. Now you can select only one at a time including Tier 2.

Early December used to be a quiet time, but not as much anymore.
I would expect all the top popular rides to have wait times of 90 minutes +.
SDD, FoP, 7DMT, PP would be in that range.
Using your FPs wisely is your best option.

I thought Disney aren't going to be offering fast passes for the Star Wars rides in early December

So if I select one tier one ride at Hollywood studios can I pick another two rides in another park

So after I have used all three fast passes I could pick more tier one fast passes ?

That is correct for now. While not released yet, everyone expects at some point in the future, the SWGE rides will be added to FP and the tiers in HS redone again.
I doubt that will happen before next summer, but its any ones guess.

You may find the FP FAQ helpful.

If you don't have a SSD FP, I would hop in line for right before park close. That ride is SO COOL at night, and the wait will be much more bearable with the sun down and the FP line no longer in use. I think TSL was just meant to be experienced at night anyway with all of the lights!

I imagine they will get FP when Runaway Railway opens.
