Your guide to Disney FastPass+ and Memory Maker
Disney FastPass+ and Memory Maker are a great addition to your Disney tickets, as they allow you to personalise and organise your experience in the parks. All of our Disney tickets currently include both of these magical extras!
Once you’ve received your tickets, you will need to create a Disney account within ‘My Disney Experience’. Here you can start planning your holiday itinerary, find maps, videos and also book your FastPass+ reservations.
Reserve access to select Walt Disney World attractions, entertainment and Character Meet and Greets with FastPass+. It provides shorter wait times so you can have more fun in the parks!
Memory Maker allows you to really treasure those magical moments. Have your photo taken at hundreds of locations throughout the parks and they will conveniently be connected to your My Disney Experience account.
Disney FastPass+ tips and information:
- You can choose your FastPass+ selections up to 30 days in advance of your visit. If you’ve bought tickets with us we’ll make sure you receive your Disney tickets before the 30 days so you can start making reservations as soon as the window opens.
- Select up to three Disney FastPass+ experiences in one Disney theme park per day.
- It’s best to select your FastPass+ reservations in the late morning and afternoon, as you are more likely to get on rides quicker early in the morning without a FastPass, when wait times are at their shortest.
- Ride reservations are split into two tiers, with Tier 1 usually including the most popular attractions. You will only be allowed to book one Tier 1 attraction per day in advance, along with two Tier 2 attractions.
- When in the parks, make sure you scan your ticket to check in at each FastPass+ reservation.
- Once you’ve checked in on your third reservation, you can use the in-park FastPass+ Kiosks or the My Disney Experience App to make an additional fourth reservation. You can then book a fifth once you’ve checked in on the fourth, and so on.
- Don’t worry if you miss a FastPass+ reservation, providing there’s availability later in the day you can simply move it to another time.
- You can edit your FastPass+ reservations after you’ve booked them. Use My Disney Experience to check whether alternate times are available that better fit your schedule. You can even change your FastPass+ selection on the day.
The My Disney Experience app
Download Disney’s My Disney Experience app so you can enjoy all the benefits on the go! Within the Disney parks you get free WiFi, making it easier for guests to organise their day through the app.
It has everything in one place with so many handy features. Book everything from your FastPass+ to dining reservations. The app includes advice on the best rides for your family, real-time attraction wait times, show times, wonderfully illustrated maps and more. You can also connect with everyone in your group, so you can easily make and share plans together.
“It was great to be able to plan ahead with this app and makes planning fun and easy. Good for selecting FastPasses, checking wait times and seeing Memory Maker photos whilst on holiday.”
