When does space run out of fastpasses

[LVdisneyChick]

same ? for splash and indy. the rest you usually don't have to worry about right?
also if i get a fastpass for splash @ 12 what time do u think the return window would be.

It depends on what time of year you are talking about. If I base it on your ticker, which means August, I would make sure I have a Splash, Space and Indy FP in my pocket before noon, which isn't hard to do if you get there at park opening.

thanks for the info but this is my problem. we are arriving at DL Sun aug 10th. now as much as i want to be up and out of the house by 4:00 am (we live in vegas.) i know i will not be. i am thinking at the latest we should arrive at the park is 11 ish. i would like to knock both space and splash out that first day. i really don't feel like waiting in an enormous line. so fp is the only way to go. i know i can work these into my monday's sch, but i really want to do these first... forget about indy i'm really not worried about it

The week of June 16-19th we were there and the FP's were gone by 3pm.

Darkbeer, over on another fan site just posted his park update from this past weekend. At the top, he shows a pic of the wait times board from yesterday, Sunday, July 6th, just after 1 pm. If crowds continue to be low like this over the summer, I'd say you're in good shape.

My experience has been that Space Mtn. runs out before Splash. So I would get that one first then watch that time like a hawk to get one before Splash runs out. It seems like most people head towards FL and Tomorrowland first thing, so Space is the one they get first. People generally don't want to get wet first thing, so they don't ride Splash (it doesn't build a line quite as early as Space) and they don't fp it as early either. In fact, if you get there at 11:00, get your fp for Space and then head over to Splash. It might not be that bad of a wait, esp if its cloudy and the crowds are a bit lower. If its broiling hot, it will be crowded too! But my experience has been that Splash fp's last longer, in fact for one of our summer visits, they didn't even have the fp machines at Splash open until the park had been open for an hour or two. They said they wanted to keep Splash from running out too soon. This was the norm for our June of 2006 trip, can't remember if it was like that last summer when we went or not.

If my situation had me arriving at 11AM on a summer day, and I wanted to ride Space, Splash and Indy without a line, I would grab a Space Mtn FP first, then an Indy FP after 2 hours, and I would ride Splash thru the single rider line in the afternoon when it is hot out.
