Fastpass Hacks Worked!

My favorite arguments on the internet are those about semantics.

So how do you add the rest of the party once you have one person with a FP+?

Just repeat the process for everyonr who wants to ride. Keep modifying and "wiggling" the times until they overlap. Remember that you may not need exactly the same time since each FP is good for an hour +15 grace. As long as the rider's windows overlap you can all go together.

So for instance I rebooked due to Irma, had 7 days to rebook all FP... I started by booking Peter Pan in groups of 1 and 2 at all random afternoon times. Then individually modified each one to as close to 2 pm as I could get. Eventually I had a party of 4 at 2 and a party of 2 at 2:30. So we all went together at 2:30.

Ah, got ya. I knew about that...just making FP+ for a party of 1 over and over and matching up times. I thought maybe there was a different trick. Actually, instead of doing it that way, I've just found it easier for our party of 5 to just do it as one group...I always wind up getting what I want. But for a super large party, I can see having to do it the way you describe.

Two pages of arguments about semantics & nobody has told the OP that the "Bippidi Boppidi Boutique" does not exist! How disappointing.

"To jury-rig or improvise something inelegant but effective, usually as a temporary solution to a problem."

Wasn't this called MacGyvering?

IS those!

I think people cringe when they see the work HACK posted, like all of a sudden they're doing something either unethical, or a secret they don't want posted in a public forum so that others won't know!!

HACK ON!!! And, if you'll read this forum even more closely, you'll see other hacks, including one that would have made the OP's hack unnecessary.

 

[bashuck]

So now OP talks in the 3rd person lol.
Its just called modification.
Most know that its an option.

bashuck wants to know what you mean by 'the 3rd person'

What do you mean by "semantics"? Are you sure we're talking about the same thing? Please explain. (joking, joking... please don't)

I'm surprised that so many people are hacking away on their keyboards about the definition of "hack" - are people hacked off? Can they hack that we might have different interpretations? While the OP's use is perhaps a little different than the hackneyed use of that term (which of course no one but a hack would use), it's not one that would cause me to hack up bile or otherwise get my hackles up. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go see about getting a hack here to transport me to the clinic so I can take care of this hacking cough I caused with all the sawdust from this hacksaw I was using. I'll check in later to see if this thread continues to be all it's hacked up to be.

I think they are hacks and I learned something new, thanks!!

Me too!! Thankful to have learned this hack for sure!!

[mom22boys]

OP, so glad you were able to get the FP+ reservations that accommodate your plan. Thanks for your enthusiasm and willingness to help others. I hope you have a magical vacation!

 

[LISAMWDW]

OP, LISAMWDW thanks you for sharing your positive experience!!

 

[MouseOfCards]

Agree with others. To OP, thank you for sharing this very helpful information.

on the internet is a prepositional phrase.

My favorite arguments (on the internet) are those about semantics - is correct.

It is/was a joke about semantics!

Is it or was it a joke? .................mine was continuing the joke theme..............

Hacks is hacks

 

[DisneyOma]

So, hack is now the word people use to say that they figured out how to do something? If the options to do something are available to all, how is that a hack? I saw the 'modern' definition - which to me just means people are not using the word correctly.

 

[JerseyJanice]

I would call it a "trick" not hack, but I'm old that way.
