Hey, hey Lisa and welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. When the weather cools down and Magic Kingdom Park is decorated for the
winter holidays, an extra breeze of pixie dust blows through Walt Disney World Resort. I love this time of year especially when it 'snows' on Main Street, U.S.A. during
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. Have a holly jolly holiday with Mickey and the gang.
Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park have tiered
FastPass+ selections. The way it works is that one Tier 1 FastPass+ selection and two Tier 2 must be selected in the same theme park before additional FastPass+ selections. If you pre-select a Tier 1 attraction, show up to the theme park, enjoy the experience, and try to reserve another Tier 1, you will be prompted to the Tier 2 attractions. Only after the one Tier 1 and two Tier 2, you may select, if available, any other attraction, whether Tier 1 or Tier 2. In fact, after the first three attractions, you may continue to choose more on a one-at-a-time rolling basis until the FastPass+ selections run out or the theme park closes. Also, you may choose attractions from different theme parks if you have a theme park ticket the Park Hopper Option and have used the initial three FastPass+ selections.
Disney Dad Tip; After you have passed through the touchpoint for your third FastPass+ selection, you may open the
My Disney Experience mobile app and schedule another. I do this while waiting to board my third attraction. The more FastPass+ selections acquired the less time waiting in line.
Lisa, enjoy making many Magical Memories this November.
