What time to they start Fast Passes?

[sacall]

We have a 9:00 am reservation for the Princess Breakfast in Norway on 5/6. We plan on getting to EPCOT around 8:25 to make our way to our breakfast. What time can you start getting FP for rides (I want to get one for Soarin')?

I know FW opens that day at 9:00am - will we be able to walk by Soarin', grab a FP and get to our breakfast before 9:00 am? Or should we get seated and then have my husband run out and get us FPs? Thanks

I believe the first fp will be issued @ 9am with a boarding time of between 9:45am and 10:45am if I remember correctly.

The first FP's will be distributed at park opening (9:00). You can't get to Soarin before that. There is an opening ceremony and the CM's will hold you back just past Spaceship Earth until after the characters come out and do the opening. Then everyone flocks over to Soarin.

Desparate times call for desparate measures.

Here's a plan that can work if you REALLY want to get those FP's.

Everyhone in your party (EXCEPT for one "lucky volunteer" who will become your "FP Scout") goes thru to the Breakfast check-in at Norway.

The "FP Scout" will hang back with the rest of the hordes of guests waiting for the "rope-drop" at 9am.

The Scout then walks over to Soarin' -along with 3,000 of his closest friends- and picks up FP's (be sure the Scout has been given ALL of your party's TICKETS).

The limber Scout then sprints on over to join your group at Norway by, say, 9:10am.

Shower the Scout with praise and adulation for a job well-done!

We did that twice for the safari in AK when we had reservations at Donald's Breakfastasaurus. It worked out fine.
