Fast pass day tomorrow! Tactics?

Morning all!
When most of the planning has been done months ago, 'Fast Pass Day' is like an oasis in a desert!

This year, the stakes are higher, with Pandora, Slinkys Dog Dash, Galaxy's Edge etc.

I'll be there tomorrow, dead on 12pm, ready to go - but unsure of how to approach it this year given the new rides at most parks

How do you approach it? Do you do a day at a time or flit between days to target the key rides?

Not done this for a while so just checking how others do it!

I do the dates with the most important rides first ie FOP then work from the furthest away as these are the ones that will have the most availability.

I did the key ones first, and you’ve more chance of getting them, especially at earlier times which we needed, the further away they are.

Mine is tomorrow too! I plan on doing FoP first, then Slinky then 7DMT then going back and filling in the rest day by day. I don’t do the starting at the end thing. I’d rather start at the beginning.

I would do the rides that will be in highest demand first and then go back and work through the days and around what you have booked. You will have more chance on the FoP etc. Furthest in to your stay. Good luck 🙂

2 of us working on 2 laptops plus mobiles. OH had his list and I had mine. Sorted popular rides first, towards end of holiday. We then filled in the rest. Even now, nearly 3 weeks later, I've added Fp's yesterday for some of the gaps that we had inc the drawing class in AK. Technically I could book something for our 1st evening but not sure how we'll be feeling.

Btw, it can kick you out which is v frustrating but just going! Make sure you're all linked as well as OH couldn't see DD. We ended up ringing Tech Help as I couldn't book a Fp just for her either! I booked her and I to ride on stuff I hated and the lovely Tech guy sorted her out for me, phew. 😊

Try not to stress, just be pleased you have a plan. You can always modify or add your Fps a few days later, when you're more relaxed!

Oh, and give yourself a big treat once you're done! 😁

The ride in Galaxy's Edge does not have FP+, so that's one less you have to worry about.

I just work day by day getting the available times closest to what I want then go back in to each day when i'm done and modify them. Always get what I need that way. I had no trouble getting the headliners this year, even FOP was available on day 1 had we wanted it that day (I had to check out of curiosity!)
