Fastpass+ is Walt Disney World's FREE way of pre-booking a time-slot for some of their most popular rides - significantly reducing the wait times. It is the single most important thing we recommend you do in terms of planning your trip. Here are some of the most common questions we get asked about Fastpass+:
How much is Fastpass+?
It is FREE! Most parks, including Universal, Legoland etc will charge you a premium to buy special tickets that allow you to queue in shorter lines. Disney do it differently - it is available to everyone and included in the cost of you park ticket. This works as they limit how many you can book at a time, so everyone gets a chance at a short wait on a few rides.
When can I book Fastpass+?
This depends on just one thing - are you staying in a Walt Disney World hotel? If you are, you can book 60 days in advance of the day you check-in, and for the first 10 days of your trip.
If you're not staying in a Walt Disney World hotel, you can book 30 days in advance of the first date of your ticket (you will selected a date when you buy these). You will only be able to book one day at a time - but we recommend booking these at the 30 day mark for each date you want to visit the parks to maximise availability, but you can also wait until 30 days in advance of your last day, and book them altogether.
What do I need to book Fastpass+?
Two things:
- You need to have already purchased your Walt Disney World tickets - either separately or as part of your holiday package.
- Set up a My Disney Experience account - available on the Walt Disney World website.
How do I book Fastpass+?
- Sign into your Mr Disney Experience Account - either via the website or the app
- Add the people in your party that you'll be booking passes for
- Make sure your park tickets (or holiday package if purchased together) are linked to your account - add them if not
- Select everyone you wish to make your first FastPass+ for
- Select the date and park
- Select the time - either morning/afternoon/evening, or a specific time
- It will offer you everything available in the park, for the number in your party, close to that time.
How many Fastpass+ can I book?
You can book 3 Fastpass+ for a single park, each day. When you have used all three of these, you can then book another - at any park. When that one has been used, you can book another, and so on. For that reason, you are best booking early Fastpasses so that you can book more once they're used. In high season however, it is likely there will be very few remaining.
