? for RideMax users

I just purchased my subscription tonight for an August trip. While putting in attractions for HS, it indicates that I am to get 2 fastpasses within an hour and a half of each other. How does this work, if you are only allowed to get one fastpass every 3 hours or after your time window has hit. Any insight is greatly appreciated. Thanks,

I have noticed this when I play with Ridemax as well, and was worried. Someone who used it with great success, however, said that if it says to do that it's because the 1st return window will be so soon (in this case within an hour and a half), that you'll be eligible for another one by then. On one of my plans it had me getting one at 9:41, and then another at 10:35 or something. I am assuming that since the first one wasn't a super popular ride, the return window will just be that quick. FYI, I thought it was 2 hours or when your return window hits, not 3, but I could be wrong!

Thanks for the info - I thought that might be the case but I was not sure. You are probably right about the 2 hour window - I was just trying to remember from our trip last summer.

On most days at MK, you can get FPs every 45-60 minutes for a good part of the day, depending on which ones you're getting and how you order them.

RideMax is correct in its estimates, I'm sure. A few DISers have good primers on FPs, but I don't have a link. I think RideMax has a good explanation on its website as well, if I remember right.

There's no problem with RideMax's plan - you probably just need to study up more on how the FPs work if you want to feel more confident in the plans it's coming up with.
