Fast Pass+ (Disney World)
What is the Fast Pass+? It is a gem of convenience! Included in your 30+ days advanced purchase of tickets you get to choose up to 3 Fast Passes (in advance,) of the most favored attractions to ride or take part in PER DAY, without having to deal with the long, untimely, and exhaustingly hot lines that accompany the most awesome attractions. Better news is if you pre-plan and book your trip 60+ days in advance, you get the opportunity to select these Fast Pass+ attractions even earlier which gives you an advantage to seize the Fast Pass of your most favored attractions before they run out! After these passes are used or the window to enter has passed, you can still receive one more Fast Pass for an attraction, if available. Limited quantities of Fast Passes are distributed daily so the Fast Pass+ advanced selection alone is the pièce de résistance of booking a Disney World vacation. This is potentially 15 of the best attractions guaranteed to visit!
(Note: Fast Pass+ is not available at the California Theme Parks. Fast Passes at Disney’s California theme parks are limited daily for distribution.)
