Fastpass question

[wonderfuller]

Can you use fastpasses on a different day than you got them? I'm only going to be at the parks 2 days and want to make the most of them. If I got a fastpass that had a return time of 1:00pm and went back to the attraction on day two after 1:00 pm do you think they'd let me use it?

Thanks!

No....they are only valid on the day you get them. The date is printed on them so you won't be able to use them on another day. But you can use them past the time that's stated on it (but not before). For example if you have FP return time of 1:00 - 2:00 they will let you use it anytime after 1:00 even if it's later than 2:00 but they will not let you use it before 1:00. HTH!!

They have the day of the week, and the date right on the bottom in big print next to the bar code. So the chances of fooling the cm at the entrance and at the merge gates are slim. But who knows, they may take pity on you and let you through anyway. As far as your chances, It's a two horse race between slim and none and none is in the lead.

It is DLR policy to accept FPs on the day of issue any time during or after the one hour window. I have no qualms about doing this.

It is not policy to accept FPs on later days. I would never try to do this as I think it is unethical. However, most CMs do not check the FPs very carefully when you hand them over. So I know it would be easy to fool many CMs by putting valid FPs on the top of a stack of 5 or 6 (in my family's case) and then put some unused FPs from previous days at the bottom of the stack.

So it is possible to fool CMs into taking FPs from previous days, but I would not advise it. However, using expired FPs on the same day is within the accepted practice.

If you want to use FP to the fullest and do it ethically, make sure you completely understand everything in these two threads:

Thanks for your help! I had forgotten that fastpasses had dates on them and I certainly don't want to be unethical. Your fastpass threads are amazing, thanks! I'll certainly get the most out of my two days now!
