Disney World Tests Centrailized FastPass System at Animal Kingdom

Under the current system, guests must go to each individual attraction that participates in the FastPass system to gain a ticket.  Last week, Walt Disney World is experimenting with a new system that would centralized the FastPass distribution method.  This test began at Disney’s Animal Kingdom where guests can visit vending machines at the centralized location of It’s Tough to Be a Bug for the theme parks’s three most popular rides: Dinosaur, Expedition Everest and Kilimanjaro Safaris.

Passes are still available at their normal location of at the attractions as well.

The Walt Disney World Resort always strives to improve guest experience.  Disney spokeswoman Zoraya Suarez said the resort wants “to make it even easier for guests to utilize FastPass during their visits.”

What do YOU think of this proposed change?  Do you think it will improve guest experience?  Are you tired of walking all over the park to get your FastPasses?  Do you have suggestions on how to further improve this system?

What is Disney’s FASTPASS® Service?

Take advantage of Disney’s FASTPASS® service. You can enjoy the rest of the park while FASTPASS® saves your place in line.

To use Disney’s FASTPASS® service:

  • Look for the FASTPASS® distribution area near the entrance of an attraction
  • Check the FASTPASS® “Return Time” display which gives you a span of time during which you can explore the Park before returning to board the attraction.
  • If the Return Time is sufficient for your plans, just insert your Walt Disney World® Resort admission ticket, readmission ticket or Annual Passport into the machine.
  • A FASTPASS® ticket will emerge with your Return Time printed on it. Now you’re free to go and enjoy the rest of the Park.
  • Go back to the FASTPASS® Return queue when your return time rolls around, show your FASTPASS® ticket to Cast Member at the entrance, and enjoy the attraction with a minimal wait.

  • MNE Ep. 64 “How We Travelled to Disneyland and WDW with a Baby”

    It has been too long since last Will and Shannon spoke to you!  Sorry for the delay.  With Shannon going back to work…and figuring out this whole parenting thing… well…  Will blames the Princess Peanut…. JUST KIDDING!!!

    Speaking of the Princess Peanut and figuring out how to be parents, Will and Shannon present to you their experience traveling to Disneyland and Walt Disney World with the Princess Peanut.

    Back in May, the three Embracers of the Disney Magic, travelled cross-country from Maryland to the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, CA.  On the way home, however, they decided to take a slight detour to the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, FL.  This vacation marked the first time Will and Shannon took the then 2-month old, Princess Peanut on a plane and to a Disney park.

    Hear their experience with:

    • Getting through security check point & what to do with the car seat, infant carrier, base and stroller.
    • Communicating with your significant other.
    • How to  keep your baby happy during take off and landing.
    • Tips for keeping you and your baby cool in the heat.
    • Baby Care Centers at both the DLR and WDW.

    So climb into the Mobile Studios with Will, Shannon, Princess Peanut and Ashley as we travel to the New Jersey and discuss How We Travelled to Disneyland and WDW with a Baby.
