Can someone explain in detail how these b-day FP work as compared to a regular FP? We will be there on my son's b-day(Sat Aug 1), 7 people in our party.
I was gonna give him the GC, but now I'm curious how these passes might work to our advantage.
I was typing that war and peace deal when you asked this. It does have info on how many etc but not directly to your question.
You need to pick a park (only 1 park) and arrive before 10AM (to be safe) with everyone. Some have said that 6 "cards" is the max, but we got all 12 in our party-it may depend on the season. Pretty sure you will get 7. Then you can take the cards up to the FP Machine you want, put in as many as you want for that ride, and it will deduct as you use them. So you need to keep reading throughout the year to see if anything changes, like which rides are available and how many etc. If you have the current 7 cards with 8 FP's each, you can use 4 from one group of attractions, and 4 from the other. At AK we had EE/Safari in one group and Dino/Bugs in the other. It was busy so it was great for EE/Saf, and good for Dino, not necessary for Bugs really. But you may think its worth it just for say 3 at EE and 1 at Safari. Or if you choose DHS, 2 at TSM and 2 at RNR (TOT was in that group but only pick 2), the other was Mermaid and Star tours-kind of crummy. Or 2 at Soarin and 2 at TT etc.
I could see a group with 2 kids and say 4 older adults that dont go on anything, and give all 48 passes to the 2 kids. Thats 12 each for TSM if they want.
