Fastpass??

[eeyore0062]

I have asked not only the fp monitors but also the supervisor's that you see walking around.Disney WILL let you ride the attraction after the time window.The cm's who turned you away were either new or ill informed,or maybe it happened not long after the fp program started.I have AP's for Disney and go quite a bit.Trust me on this.Disney may not advertise this but they do allow it.The idea of the fp is to let you do other things besides standing in line i.e shop,eat etc...and that means your spending money instead of standing in line not spending money.In fact i was just there 2-12 thru 2-16 with no problems,and it was very crowded.There were a ton of high school cheerleader's from all over the country.Mike

We also go all of the time, and have asked and were told that you can return at any time after the window starts.

I e-mailed Disney about the FP window and if they allow people to use the FP after the time window.Here's their response.

OK, OK, bring a copy of that letter and next time you want to beat the system and use a faded barely legible expired fastpass you picked up off the ground last year and the CM supervisor won't let you use it, then show the supervisor the letter and whine, "But the Big Kahuna or the Head Honcho or Michael Eisner or Roy Disney said it was OK".

Gosh, did I miss something? I thought we were taling about using a fastpass
later in the day you get it after the window expires.

Sheesh.

You can get a fastpass with your park ticket after you use the one you currently have or ( I believe they shortened the time ) every one hour. The time that you are able to get a new pass is printed on your current fast-pass. It's a great system.

I have never used a fast past and have never waited more than 15 minutes for a ride - except for Pooh's Hunny Pots. That was a 35 minute wait and so not worth it. And I love Pooh Bear.

The busiest time I visited was Christmas - this is when I waited 35 minutes for Pooh.
