Title: How to use a fast pass
Post by: CrespinFamilyAus on May 31, 2018, 05:59:20 AM
Hello 👋

My husband and I are taking our 5&2 year old to DLP in 3 weeks. Think I'm the most excited 😜

Could someone please tell me how the fast pass works? Ie do you have to go to the actual ride, book online, purchase?

Sorry if it's a silly question, but trying to be as organised as possible to make the most out of our day.

Thanks 🙏

I wrote a guide for a DLP blog which you can find here (http://www.dailydisneyland.com/en/disneylandparis-fastpass-guide/). Hope it's helpful!

Thyese are the Fatspass Rides

Main Park
Peter Pan
Big Thunder Mountain rollercoaster (has a height requirement of 1.02m)

RocknRoller Coaster (has a height requirement of 1.20m)
Ratatouille

Of the Fatspass rides only Peter Pan, Buzz Lightyear and Ratatouille are suitable for the little ones.

To use Fastpass
1. Go to any of the rides listed above  and find the Fastpass machine for that ride
2. Insert your park ticket
3. Your park ticket will be returned to you along with a Fatspass ticket for that ride
4. The Fastpass ticket will specify the ride it is for, the date and a return time window
5. During the specified return time window, return to the ride and ask the CM for the Fastpass Return Line
6. The CM will check your Fastpass Ticket and allow you access to the Fastpass Return Line
7. At the top of the line, before you board the ride, the CM will take the Fastpass ticket from you
8. You do not have have to pay for Fastpass tickets
9. You can not get a Fastpass before you enter the park
10 You can only hold 1 Fastpass ticket in a 2 hour timeframe. For example, you get a Fastpass for Peter Pan at 11.30am which has a return time of between 1.30pm and 2pm. Your next Fast pass will be available at  1.30pm
However if you get a Fastpass at 11.30am with a return time of between 12.30pm and 1pm, your next Fastpass will be available at 1pm
