Hi,
After reading on the DIBB that fast passes have been running out by 10am for "Toy Story Mania" at Hollywood Studios. I don't want this to happen to us - so it's got me questioning the order I have planned for fast passing the top attractions at the Disney parks.
Going by which are the most popular rides, with the greatest demand for Fast Passes, does this look OK ? - any advice welcome.:thumbs-up
Hollywood Studios :-
1.Toy Story Mania
2.Tower of Terror
3.Rock 'n' Roller Coaster
4.Indiana Jones
5 Star Tours
6.Voyage of the little Mermaid
Magic Kingdom
1.Splash Mountain
2.Big Thunder Mountain Rail Road
3.Buzz Light Year
4.Space Mountain
5.Stitches Great Escape
6.Peter Pans Flight
7.Jungle Cruise
8.Winnie the Pooh
Animal Kingdom
1.Expedition Everest
2.Dinosaur
3.Kali River Rapids
4.Kilimanjaro Safaris
5.It's Tough to be a Bug
6.Primeval Whirl
Epcot
1.Soaring
2.Mission Space
3.Test Track
4.Honey I shrunk the Audience
5.Living with the Land
5.Maelstrom
Looks good but I would make a few slight changes.
Rock 'n' Roller Coaster was much busier than Tower of Terror.
I think Test Track would go before Mission Space.
Kilimanjaro Safaris and Kali River Rapids were much busier than Dinosaur.

Thank guys for the tips - BenH, looks like you've just come back ? glad to hear Tower of Terror has calmed down a bit - it was by far the busiest when we went last in 2006 - good way to keep fit zig-zagging across the parks getting the fast pass tickets !!:d:

Back yesterday! Tower of Terror had about 40 minute queues (I was suprised!) whereas the Rock Coaster had 90 minute wait times. Have a great time :wavey:

The only changes I would consider are:
Star Tours ahead of Indiana Jones
Peter Pan & WTP ahead of Stich
Test Track ahead of MS
Kilomanjari Safari ahead of Dinosaur
Apart from those, pretty much in line with my experience.
OK have re-jigged the priority order - taking on board the comments - thanks chaps.:spin:

Looks great, it really gives a good indication of what is going to be busy to people who are less familiar with the parks.

Dont waste a fast apss on honey i shrunk the audience, its dated and pales next to tough to be a bug, muppets and shrek (even pirates 4d at busch is better) the pre show is a 10 minute waste of your life whilst you watch an advert for Kodak, and although it may have been cutting edge a few years ago it is not a great show the queues move fast and if you want to do it the just hang out in the queue, whatever you do though make sure you get a fast pass for soarin it is awesome.
Don't think they do fast passes for Indiana Jones anymore; they didn't in June.
Never seen too big a queue for Mission Space, 20 min max, since they did the non spin ride.

Could not see you needing a fastpass for any of the theatre 3D shows particularly as they tend to be okay for getting in as long as you turn up about half an hour before.
I was amazed to see the stand by times for Winnie the pooh and Peter Pan rides. By 3pm they were up to 70mins. :omg:
:spin::spin:Thank you so much. I started doing just this last week and only did HS so you have saved me a lot of time.:)
