VIP Fast Pass ???

[trkej51216]

I have read somewhere that you can buy VIP fast passes. Does anyone know anything about these or has anyone used this?

You don't buy Fastpasses at WDW. Fastpasses are free . You can book a VIP Tour (I think it starts at $150 a hour).

VIP fastpasses are given to celebrities or other important guests, like politicians, whose walking through the park like a normal "guest" really isn't possible. I don't think it's really a fastpass like what you or I could get -I believe Disney always has a VIP escort with them and they generally get special entrances and front of the line access (and probably admitance before and after normal park hours) so as to avoid crowds.

I believe if a regular guest were to want the VIP service, it's a little different. They will get fastpasses for you at attractions so you don't have to do it, and they MIGHT be able to get you front of the line access to some rides, but it's not the same as what a famous celebrity would get.

I got VIP fastpasses for my family from DVC. Just by attending their seminar I got them for my family of 5 and were good for 3 rides each. Then we bought DVC the next day and got more. They were great, no waiting, go right on the ride at that moment.

How long was the seminar? When do you sign up for that?

We got a set of those from the Year of Magic people. We were at BTMRR and a group of us received them and didn't have to take the tour. I really didn't think they were VIP in any way, shape or form.

It's not like you walked into the park and they handed them to you. You took park time out and had to go through the DVC seminar to get them. Then you made a further investment which got you more. So, yours weren't really all that free. Time is money ... and you spent money to get them as well.

That's the Dream Fastpass, which is given out as part of the Year of a Million Dreams (a.k.a. The 27 Months of 2.25 Million Prizes). You can only get them by being in the right randomly-chosen place at the right randomly-chosen time. There is no connection to DVC.

It was about 45 minutes and they had an area for the kids to play. Just a quick film and little question and answers...there was NO one on one, so no pressure. If you were not interested you got up and left with your Passes....You go to a DVC booth, located almost everywhere and they set you up for a time to go. We used them the next day at Hollywood Studios for Toy Story Mania. People were getting fast passes to return 7pm and I got on instantly around 9:30am. So I thought it was worth it.

Yeah, I basically did have them handed to me.....
Time is money, so for 45 minutes out of the hot sun and sitting having free water bottles given ...well worth the VIP fast passes and again no waiting for rides like toy story mania...

I'm guessing you saved more than 45 minutes in line times. And what is bottled water worth at Disney- about $5 a pop? Good deal!

DVC tours do give them out..But they have started taking names down so people don't "repeat" visit just to get the fastpasses when they have no intention of buying into dvc.They also used to give out $50 gift cards.

I like the way you insert, they take names. Are you suggesting something to us??? Did we say we were going to repeat..no we didnt, take it easy. And yes I bought into DVC AK, and those that don't, so what, enjoy those FP.
