I am pretty certain this isn't the case. But someone on my wife's Instagram tried telling her you can ride as many times within the FP+ hour as you like.

I am sure it's single ride per FP only right? I'm not mad? Lol

With the new ability to book additional FPs after you use the first three, can I book the 4th, etc. etc. for a different park or do the additional FPs have to be for the same park as the original 3?

You can book your 4th anywhere, from anywhere.

I can't find the thread regarding maximizing FP+ and getting extra Fast passes by having extra magic bands and linked to a second MDE account. Can someone provide a link to that thread? Is it still possible to get extra fast passes using that strategy? Have the changes to the FP system altered the way that works? Thanks in advance for any answers.

Thanks Hiro

There was another thread on this topic that I was following last year and I thought I had bookmarked it. I also had a few other threads which marked. I am a disboards novice and I can't figure how to find those those threads are. I thought there was a way to find all the old threads that I had commented on in the past. How do I find those

The "Maximize Your FPs" thread you are referencing is included in the SDFP thread. It's linked in a number of posts and ScrapYap, who began that thread, is actively posting on the SDFP thread.

I've read lots of answers about what the unofficial grace period is if you show up late for your fastpass+ window...but what about if you're a few minutes late for a fastpass+ window for a show? For example, we have fastpass+ for For the First Time in Forever (no judgement, please! I can't do many rides at HS for health reasons, so gotta' make those fast passes count somewhere!) Our window is to return between 10:05-10:20. If we tried to squeeze another attraction in and didn't get there till between 10:20 and 10:30 would we still be let in for a 10:30 show?

You will still be let in, assuming there is room. There's no FP designated seating for this show, so would just need to find any available seat at that time. But by showing up beyond the FP return window, you are forfeiting the "guaranteed entry" that the FP provides.

Gotcha - makes sense. Thanks!

Hi, I can't find the info on using fastpass for fireworks. can someone please tell me what the benefit is? I have one set for illuminations and I believe that gets me a seat, but not sure. What about other firework shows and parades? What are those fastpasses for? I appreciate the help.

Two things....first, there are no seats at Illuminations, it is just a reserved space between the two little stores at the entrance to the WSC, everyone stands.

Second, I believe that the other Fireworks shows are no longer FPs, (MK, HS) are now dessert parties (as in reserved space, separate ticket, but again standing only, no seating). If you are looking for one of those, look on the DINING pages.

ETA: I don't think there are FPs for parades anymore, but someone else may have more updated info.

Fantasmic! at HS still has FP, but the current Star Wars fireworks do not. A FP for F! gets you a seat in a reserved area, but not a reserved seat (if that makes sense?).

The MK Tomorrowland Terrace Dessert party does have seating; the new same day reservations for this event will be in the old FP area, which has no seats, but you can sit in the grass. The SW fireworks dessert party has no seating, neither does the Illuminations dessert party (similar area as the FP section, but additional charge).

The MK parades are still FP options into May, as far as I can check on my AP, but I had also heard these may be going away as well.

oh, yeah, I forgot about F!...haven't seen it for a few years now, so I just don't think about it. Sorry.

Also, as to the Tommorrowland Terrace Dessert party, the two times I did that, yes, they did have tables and chairs for the dessert part, but everyone got up and gathered at the railing for the show, so if we had stayed seated, we didn't really have a good view...

Thanks, Cluelyss, for the corrections!

As of January, no more assigned seats at TT and the tables are all pushed to the railing, so that viewing spot is gone
