There are Express passes, but not FOTL.

You can buy the express plus pass which runs about $25 in addition your admission. It includes one time on each attraction.

Just to clarify, rocketman and spideyhulk are talking about different kinds of express.

The express Rocketman was referring to is the free Express. It's very similar to Disney's fastpass in that you scan your admission ticket and in the machines around the park and you can get a pass. If you dont like the offered times, you can simply CANCEL and nothing is put on your ticket. Otherwise, you choose your time and a pass will print out with your return time. The computer will also tell you when you can get your next Express pass (generally 1-2 hrs after you got that one).

Spideyhulk is referring to Express plus. This you pay for, up to $25 per person, but you get a pass that's good for the whole day, one express access per attraction in whichever park the pass is issued for. They are park and date specific, so you can't use Studio Express Plus in IOA...

Hi Dave!

You know, we are doing the same thing. I had originally made ressies at WDW for Sun-Saturday, and planned on doing Disney and US/IOA. After reading this wonderful board, I decided to take the plunge and changed the last two nights of my ressies to Hard Rock Hotel. It was just too tempting to pass up having FOTL passes ALL DAY and being able to walk to US/IOA. I don't know how many is in your family, but if you do the math, after you pay $25 a piece for the Express Plus pack, it may be cheaper (and more enjoyable) to stay on site.

Good luck, and hope you have a wonderful trip!

Yes, even if you only stay onsite for one night........ you get fotl the entire day you check in, and the entire day you check out. So, for one night onsite, you get 2 full days of fotl........... WELL WORTH IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you do decide to stay onsite........ get your loews card, it's free,and gives you some really good perks!!

AND.......... check out all the discounts avail. for your room rate.


Have a great time
