Chris’s Tip Time: FASTPASS at Epcot

 

Once you enter Epcot for the day, make sure to get your FASTPASS at your choice of either Soarin’ or Test Track. Then you wait for an hour by seeing either Spaceship Earth, Universe of Energy or Journey Into Imagination with Figment. One Hour Later, you go back to your FASTPASS attraction.

Please Note: It has to be either Soarin’ or Test Track when it comes to fastpasses. Why? Because they’ll be gone for the day!!

Epcot’s 30th Anniversary

 

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!!!!!!

Chris’s Tip Time: FASTPASS

Are you getting sick and tired of waiting in line for the popular Disney Attractions?
Use Disney’s FASTPASS. A free guest service that saves your place in line at some of the most popular attractions like Splash Mountain or select other attractions.
Here’s how it works. Once you enter a Disney Park, check your park map and see which attractions include FASTPASS availability. After you arrive, walk up to the FASTPASS Machine and insert your park admission ticket. Once the green bulb lights up, take your admission ticket out and the machine will print out your FASTPASS. When you receive it, check your pass and see your return time as seen in the picture below.
Please Note: Sometimes, you can get another FASTPASS Ticket before the actual return time. Look at the bottom and see the next available time to get another FASTPASS for another attraction. In this example, the time is earlier than the actual return time.

Chris’s Tip Time: PeopleMover

If the Magic Kingdom in Florida gets crowded in the afternoon, guests can ride on some attractions that are usually NOT as crowded. One of them is the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover. This is one of my favorite attractions. Guests can ride on an small elevated train for a nice relaxing tour around the Tomorrowland area.
Check back later for the trivia about this “PeopleMover” attraction!!

Chris’s Tip Time: Before Dinner

At the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World in Florida, be sure to visit these following two attractions BEFORE you eat dinner either in or out of the park.
The two attractions are:

• Mad Tea Party in Fantasyland

My Favorite:

• The Haunted Mansion in Liberty Square

Chris's Tip Time: Haunted Mansion at Night

30 Minutes before Disneyland Park in California or Magic Kingdom Park in Florida close their doors for the day, walk over to The Haunted Mansion.

It's less crowded at night.


CREEPY, Huh?

Chris's Tip Time: Disney's Hollywood Studios in the Morning

After Disney's Hollywood Studios open, Immediately get fastpasses for the new version of Star Tours. Once you go your fastpass, go to either Rock N Roller Coaster or The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror.  The waiting time for both attractions are 10 to 15 Minutes long.

After you ride on both of them, you check and see if it's time to use your fastpass.

If it is, go back to Star Tours and use your fastpasses right away.

Chris’s Tip Time: Magic Kingdom's Fantasyland

Once you enter the Magic Kingdom Park in Florida, walk over to Fantasyland and get your Fastpass ticket for Mickey’s PhilharMagic. After receiving your ticket, you can ride on either Peter Pan’s Flight, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, and/or It’s a Small World. In addition, you can walk next door to Liberty Square and ride on The Haunted Mansion.

Chris’s Tip Time: Your Morning at Disneyland

Once Disneyland Park opens, rush over to Star Tours in Tomorrowland and get Fastpass tickets before they magically disappear. The new version of Star Tours is the new number one attraction at Disneyland. Then, go to Adventureland and see Indiana Jones Adventure before the line gets longer. This is another popular attraction.

Please Note: Star Tours images will be posted soon.
