FastPass+ Trade/Watch

[theycomefromallover]

Now that FastPass+ is adding new things everyday, I thought it would be great to have a place where people can trade and watch for new fastpass+ items are popping up.

If you are about to cancel a fastpass or you looking for something why not post it here. Maybe someone else will be able to help! Hey it works great for Dining reservations, Why not Fastpass+?

Right now I am looking to get a Electric light show parade & Wishes fastpasses for one night Sept 10-12.

[theycomefromallover]

Lol! I figure if you can't beat it, make the most of it!

 

[theycomefromallover]

Still on the hint for MK wishes or parade. If anyone gets this please post!

I don't understand why you need a fast pass for a parade or fireworks show? This makes no sense to me. Are there now reserved seating areas that people line up for?

Yes. Reserved seating areas for both

There are now reserved areas for those that want to use a FP+ for. I personally agree with you, but there are plenty of others that have various and legitimate reasons for choosing this option.

For us it is the flexibility of not having to wait for hours for the parade and fireworks with little ones! It is worth it (for us) to do e-ticket rides in the morning without Fastpass and save our fast passes for the parade and fireworks.

With kids it's wonderful. Last week we were able to stroll into our Illuminations FP+ area 10 minutes before the show and be right up on the rail, front row, there was enough room for everyone to have a perfect view. Then another night we were able to ride RNR twice and TOT once walk on, while everyone was lining up and filing into Fantasmic, then we walked in with our FP+ about 20 minutes before the 8:30 show into an almost empty Pochahontas section. Maybe 20-30 people in it. The rest of the theatre including the dinner package sections were packed in like sardines. About 10 minutes before the show, they started letting everyone into the section and it filled in, but not completely, we still had space around us free.

It's worth it if you can't stand the crazy and if you have little kids and don't have the option of the later show. We'd never seen F! Before because we weren't willing to deal with that chaos, but this let us experience it. Getting out was still a bit nuts, but bearable.

That's great that these work well for you! Disney is counting on all the new options to spread out demand across the FP network.

I have prioritized FP+ choices based on my experience with wait times and FP demand in the past. It is based on those alone, but I am aware that it makes sense for some to get a FP for a "C" attraction for a lot of guests. It is meant to be a relative priority so that As save you the most time for the headliners and the Bs and Cs progressively less so for less popular attractions.

My family is hoping for a FP to Fantasmic on Wednesday, September 25th. Anybody had any luck with Fantasmic FP during the week yet????

 

[skmastaz]

Is there a different area that has the shows? I'm not seeing the option of adding them anywhere on my FP+ options.

So far we have only seen shows for beginning of September for Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays! Sorry. I'm not giving up hope that they might add them at the last min!

No other place to add shows. May not e available for your days.
