FastPass Question

[donnajz]

Someone who was at Disney in January told me after you use only one FastPass, that you are able to get another. I am 99% sure you need to use ALL 3 before you can get more. Can someone please confirm?

You have to use all three first.

So I have a question along those same lines. We are going Saturday. I scheduled three fast passes for the four of us. We are focusing on my granddaughter so I scheduled a meet with Ariel, riding Dumbo and Ariel's ride. They are all scheduled very late in the day so the chances of us getting others are slim. Should I dump them all and try and get earlier ones? We are going to stand in the Elsa/Anna line for however long that takes us first (going at rope drop and hurrying there first as this is her biggest wish) so I can't get anything too early but our first FP isn't until list 4:30 or so, I am thinking we should be able to get something way earlier than that. What do y'all think?

Answers to FP FAQs like yours can be found in the green link in my signature. The first three must be used or expire before any more can be gotten, and then only one at a time.

Age-old FP+ question. Do you get early FPs (with relatively less worth since crowds are low) and get more later (with more worthwhile FPs less likely to be available) or do you get midday FPs (with relatively high worth due to larger crowds) and attempt more even later (with more worthwhile FPs almost certainly gone). There is no one-size-fits-all answer.

Yes! Dump them! Those are easily gotten FP's. Get 10, 11 and 12. Then you'll likely have lots to choose from in MK as 4th and 5th FPs. And a 10 am FP will give you plenty of time to wait for A&E at RD ... the 10 am FP is good until 11 am ... A&E will not take that long if you are at RD and head straight there.

Thank you! That's what I was thinking too but wanted to make sure!

@CarolinaGirlTiss it depends on how busy that day is supposed to be and if you're going to be in that park all day (which it sounds like you are). Personally, I think it makes more sense to get to the park early, take advantage of shorter standby lines in the AM, and have your FP+'s booked for the PM when the standby lines are super long. As for A&E, you need to just take what you can get with that coveted FP.

And I am assuming that you have a little one and are not interested in the big mountains.... You might also consider changing the under the sea ride for Enchanted Tales ... The FPs are harder to get later in the day and the line gets longer. Under the sea will be a short line through late morning

I have never done Enchanted Tales, can you tell me what it is?

It's an interactive M&G with Belle. You go through Maurice's cottage and are transported to the day Belle falls in love with the beast. Children are given roles to play in a short telling of the event and then Belle comes out, dances with the child who is picked as beast and takes pictures with the children.

I thought you could make changes to the FP you have, just go in and change the times?

and was the current "4th FP" added to accounts just a "test" and is over with currently?


I need to go read Mesa's thread again!
