More attractions for use of fast pass

[old lady]

A lot of people have complain about fast pass. What is one way to solve the problem with them is making more attractions?

 

[mousehockey37]

There are plenty of attractions to use FP+ on. Yes, the tiers are somewhat weighted when it comes to EPCOT and DHS because there really isn't anything, but if you plan accordingly, depending on the time of year and days of the week you go, you may not need them anyway. That or book one FP and make a B-line for the other same tier ride that you couldn't get the FP for.

The MK has so many options that the tiers make sense, but Disney is in the process of imagining new things to put places so that more can be added to the FP list and thus, solve the problems.

I had always said that EPCOT and DHS really needed some love. Last June was our first trip with FP+. We did fine with it and had a great time. However, this new system really points out how much love those two parks need. To me the fact that the Land and Great Movie Ride are both tier one is all the proof you need of that. I do think that they need to be new attractions and you really need to spread the love out. Little bit of thrill and little bit of family.

This works as long as you only care about riding the best rides in the park once. Personally, I'd like to ride TSMM more than once on my trip, but there is no way to ride it more than twice in a day unless you are willing to wait over an hour for it.

I don't understand any of the three questions posed by the OP, so I will abstain.

Well, technically you could ride it 3x if not more... Get a FP, run for the ride at rope drop, use up your fastpasses and get the 4th, 5th, 6th pass at the kiosk if they're available... or if there are late EMH, get in line.

To be able to book, re-book, and re-re-book your favorite ride, won't happen unless you can manage to get past the 3rd required fp reservation/use.

Too bad one of Disney's main motivation for My Magic Plus is crowd control to maximize attraction capacity... All to keep Disney from having to build new attractions to increase that capacity.

I spent 2 nights, and one EMH night at DHS last trip (early december) at DHS and I never saw a line for TSMM that didn't look ridiculously long. I didn't just look at the posted time, I looked inside at the queue and maybe I was just unlucky, but it looked like an hour wait both nights. I also highly doubt that a 4th FP could be obtained for TSMM day of. Most the time it's not even available the morning of.

I had to vote for "good ones."

Well, then I guess people are just SOL with the limited amount of rides/attractions that require FP+ in the emptier parks...

 

[BugsDaddy]

I selected three. Good ones, other and no.

That didn't stop me from voting. I see "more rides" and "Disney" in the same sentence, I go straight to "yes"

I see this mentioned every now and then. Is this fact or conjecture?

This is not correct. We often ride Toy Story 4x during the final hour of operation during our early summer visits.

The key is to ride while Fantasmic is underway and to ignore the posted wait times.

We do these kind of tricks all the time, you have to learn when enough is enough so your not stuck in long line.

Wishes and Electrical parade are good times at MK, to run to rides.

Some time the AK parades if they have them running, will get people off rides in dino land area.

 

[OrangeCountyCommuter]

Put things in people want to ride? For some reason Toy Story Mania and Soarin' have reasonable lines over in California? Hmm... could it be because there are LOTS of good attractions in the park not just "one or two" LOL!

The fact they Disney has "fast passed" things that are duds is just proof that it's a joke Yes you got three fast passes but of course you only wanted to ride one of the three LOL!

Would someone please tell me WTH a parker is?

I'm guessing it means people who go to the parks? Guests?

Like someone who rides a ride is a "rider". Someone who goes to the parks is a "parker".

Yes please! I thought maybe it was the OP's last name.
