Guests staying at Walt Disney World Resort (WDW) can get FastPass tickets 60 days in advance of their visit.\u00a0 This is a significant advantage as it provides\u00a0guests with the best opportunity to get Fast Passes that are in high demand such as the Flight of Passage at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.\u00a0 Guests not staying “onsite” can only get their FastPasses 30 days in advance of their visit to the WDW parks.\u00a0 Unfortunately, FastPasses for popular attractions are often not available to guests booking within the 30-day window.<\/p>\n
There is a loophole that actually allows guests not staying at the resort to get FastPasses a full 60 days in advance of their visit.\u00a0 The method involves booking accommodations at the WDW resort, getting FastPasses 60 days in advance, then canceling the hotel stay.<\/p>\n
FastPasses allow guests of Walt Disney World to bypass the line for an attraction.\u00a0 When a guest acquires a FastPass, they will be given a 1-hour time slot during which to visit the attraction, say from 1:30-2:30 p.m.\u00a0 When the visitor returns to the attraction during this window, they can use the FastPass entrance which typically has little to no wait.<\/p>\n
Guests\u00a0are only permitted to have one FastPass at a time.\u00a0 When that FastPass is used up (by going on the attraction or after the expiry of the FastPass), visitors are eligible for an additional FastPass.\u00a0 There is one exception to this rule, however.\u00a0 For each day a guest is visiting the Parks, they can select 3 FastPasses in advance by registering their ticket under their My Disney Experience account at disney.go.com<\/a>.\u00a0 There is a limited number of FastPasses available and the most popular attractions usually go quickly.\u00a0 Therefore, it is recommended that visitors get their\u00a0FastPasses as early as possible.<\/p>\n For guests staying onsite, that is, at one of the Disney owned properties, they are eligible to get FastPasses 60 days in advance of their check-in date.\u00a0\u00a0This is a major advantage because it means greater availability of FastPasses for the most popular attractions.<\/p>\n Guests staying offsite can obtain their FastPasses 30 days in advance of each visit to the park.\u00a0 For the most popular attractions, FastPasses are often unavailable.\u00a0 Clearly, Disney has designed it this way to encourage guests to stay onsite.<\/p>\n There is a loophole that allows guests not staying onsite to get FastPasses 60 days in advance.\u00a0 This process involves making an accommodation reservation at one of the WDW hotels, getting FastPasses, then canceling the hotel reservation.\u00a0 Guests must be careful not to cancel their hotel reservation too early, however, as it could result in the FastPasses being canceled as well.\u00a0 The steps to acquiring FastPasses 60 days in advance without staying onsite are listed below:<\/p>\n This is a loophole that Disney has not yet closed.\u00a0 It is a popular technique among budget travelers because it allows them to take advantage of getting FastPasses 60 days in advance while not needing to stay at a Disney hotel.\u00a0 Travelers to Walt Disney World Resort in Orland, Florida should also consider these Disney money saving tips<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Guests staying at Walt Disney World Resort (WDW) can get FastPass tickets 60 days in advance of their visit.
