Fast pass/ parent swap/ assistance pass

[dawnjess]

Hi
I'm a week before 60 days ( staying onsite)

I think when my 60 days opens I can book 14 days in advance? Then after that do I book daily ( 21 days were there for)

Once booked can we change if we want to?

What if it's a big ride that LO not big enough for do I still book 5 fast passes?

How do fast pass and parent swap work together or do they not

And how does the assistance pass work, I'm guessing I don't need this for fast passes.

Is it really manic on the 60 day marker? ( do I need to log on bang on 12 o clock )

Nervous now

It was the old system last time I went 🙄

Thank you

I think this is correct but not 100% sure. You can deffo book 14 days at the 60 day mark but you maybe able to book the full 21 - hopefully someone can confirm

Yes assuming there is availability

I wouldn't bother booking for them if they can't use it personally but that's your decision

Your fastpass is valid for 60 mins and works the same as if you queue and do parent swap so no issues

And how does the assistance pass work, I'm guessing I don't need this for fast passes.

So this works differently depending on who the pass is for. It is to allow those that can't queue to "virtual" queue. It is independant to fast pass and so can be used seperately but the person with the pass needs to be riding with the party to use. You can all be linked to the pass and all get access in this way but the person who has the pass has to be riding. You don't need this for your FP reservations and can't reserve in advance with the assistance (DAS) itself if that makes sense? This works as a reservation system when in the park that will give you a return time for a single ride at a time based on the queue time.

It depends. If you are after some of the more "limited" FPs and you've got your heart set on a specific time and date for them then it can be. If however you aren't that worried about times etc then its not too bad.

Thank you

So, if it's a ride that the little one won't be riding do I get 4 fast passes instead of 5 but then some of my party will get to ride it twice with the parent swap ?

Sorry my brains just tryong to work it out.

So for example..
Flight of passage.
I get 4 fast passes for dh me dd ds but not one for little one.
Then I stay with little one when dh DD ds ride
Then when they come back and it's my turn can someone ride with me ?

I’m also going for 21nights. You can book first 14 days all together then one day at a time till you reach day 21.

I got all the popular fastpasses such as slinky dog and FOP at times and days I wanted at the 60 day mark.

So no I think you would end up having to ride on your own if this is the case. So if you are determined to ride with someone I would split the kids so one goes with each of you maybe?

If both parties (the people riding first and the people waiting) go to get the rider switch before riding then the person who waits with the little one can have up to two people ride with on the second round. So if you have two children who are tall enough to ride they can ride with both parents.

Ah did not know this. Always assumed you would just get the one parent only. That's good info for people

We have a similar issue to those of the OP, and going around the same time.

If your youngest is under 3, they won't have a ticket so cannot get fastpasses for them (as far as I remember from when we took our then 11 month old!)

We are planning on splitting our fastpasses so that our youngest and oldest can go on on separate rides. There is a clear age and height difference between them so will want to experience different things.

To add to this we would like to do these as rider switch as well. So we are planning the following:

Ride 1. Fastpass for child 1 and parent 1, and then rider switch for child 1 and parent 2.
Ride 2. Fastpass for child 2 and parent 2

Effectively this means the older child gets to experience the ride with both parents, but the youngest only does their ride once.

Can anybody see a problem with this? I am sure this is what we did last time, albeit parent 2 had the fastpass for the ride that child 2 didn't have a ticket for.
