In what order do you get your Fast Passes?

[Disneyglobegirl]

We definately want to ride all the fast pass rides and I wanted to know which direction to go first when at Disneyland. Should we head to Space Mountain first or Indiana Jones? Do some Fast Passes tend to run out earlier then others?

Thanks

Space first (they'll run out first). If it's hot, then go to Splash. Indy should be third.

For us if the line is less then 30 minutes we ride and skip the FP. If it is longer then that we tend to opt for FP if it will fit into our schedule. We don't like running around the park but opt for a circle the park touring style.

Thanks Disneychrista - we will definately keep the waits in mind when getting FP - if the wait isn't long we will prob just get in line

Now that Space is open again we usually go Space, Indy, Splash and then whatever else.

At DCA we get Soarin, GRR, Screamin.

On crowded days, and since one can use a FP any time that day after the FP window opens, I use a different strategy. Personally, I would not wait in line for any FP ride. If I have to wait in line, I do it for things that do not have FP.

In answer to the OP, it depends on your priorities. The FPs which run out first are Space Mtn, then Splash (on a hot day) and then Indy, then Buzz. Everything else at DL has FP until late in the evening.

At DCA, Soarin runs out of FP first, then Grizzly RR (on a hot day), then Calif Screamin, then ToT and MM.

^ It also depends on when you go. When we went in Feb. during President's week, MM and BTMR FPs were not running. In a sense, a few rides' FPs closed helps you prioritize your FPs. But also during this time the FPs for Space and California Screamin ran out by midday.

I have a tip for you that I learned from another thread....

You can get another fastpass 2 hours after you get your first one if the return time on the first fastpass is more than 2 hours away.
