What is the Kiosk Procedure for FP?

[barbaraann]

I understand how to get my three fast passes that I get at the 60 day window. However, I do not, and never have gotten a Fastpass from a Kiosk. In fact, since FP+ was instituted I have been to WDW twice, and can honestly say that I have never seen a kiosk. Can someone explain to me how I get my fourth fastpass after I have use my original three. Is it a complicated process? Do I need MDE, or do I just need my Magicband?

Thanks to anyone who takes the time to answer.

So, basically, I will find a kiosk, and touch my Magicband to the kiosk, and follow the directions from there.

Now, I have a totally different question. I am traveling with a party of 7, and I will be scheduling our original 3 fast passes each day at the 60 day window. After we use those three fast passes, is it better for the other 6 people in my party to use the DAS system? I will most likely be splitting up from them at that point in time. Clarification. We have three children with disabilities, and three adults will be traveling/touring/riding with them. We used the DAS system in California, and I read it works exactly the same way in Florida.

There's no reason to use the kiosk for your 4th FPP if you have the MDE app (or can log into your MDE account via a browser on your phone). Once you've used your three, just go into MDE, select FastPass+ and use the + key on the top right to add an additional. You would only need to go to a kiosk if you don't have some type of internet access.

I do have a smart phone, and it's good to know that I can make additional fast passes with it. I have been on two WDW vacations since the inception of Fastpass Plus, but always stopped at Three Fastpasses. I guess practice makes perfect when it comes to doing these things. The internet/computers intimidated me at first, but I am getting the hang of things.

I appreciated actually seeing a picture of the Kiosk, and the actual process. I learn quicker from a visual explanation than just words. Thanks for all the assistance.
