Doing Disney The Right Way: Fastpasses


Fastpasses are truly a blessing. Fastpasses are a blessing because you can wait in line without actually waiting in line. 

What exactly is a fastpass?
A fastpass is a ticket that you can get by using your park ticket that lets you skip almost to the very front of the line on a attraction. Almost every ride has a fastpass, and even more rides will be getting fastpasses soon with the Fastpass + feature Disney is enhancing. 

How do I get a fastpass?
At almost every attraction in Disney there are Fastpass Kiosks (like in the photo to your right). All you have to do is put your ticket that admitted you into the park and a fastpass for that attraction will pop out. On the fastpass there will be a specific time and you have to return within that hour.

Basic Fastpass Tips & Facts
  • If the line is less that 30 minutes don't get a fastpass, you don't need a fastpass with a line that short
  • You will only be admitted on the ride with you fastpass on the hour, as why there is a specific hour on your fastpass.
  • The most popular rides fastpasses sell out first, so if you plan on getting on those rides, get your fastpasses first!
  • In Magic Kingdom, most of the Fantasyland Fastpasses are in the same area. (Winnie the Pooh, Peter Pan's Flight, Phillharmagic, and Journey to the Little Mermaid: Under the Sea)
  • Fastpasses will be your bestfriend.
  • Some rides you need to get a Fastpass for (i.e. Peter Pans Flight, Toy Story Mania, Tower of Terror, etc.) or the lines will be really long.
  • You can only have one fastpass at a time, so be conscious of what fastpass you want to get!
