By using FastPass+, your vacation forecast looks bright with a 100% chance of even more magic at Walt Disney World. Long lines and wait times are a thing of the past with this priceless perk that makes fairytale dreams come true in no time when you reserve access to select attractions and entertainment in advance. Save on discount Walt Disney World tickets with TicketsatWork and let FastPass+ work its magic.

What is it?
Disney FastPass+ is an absolutely FREE service included with every Walt Disney World park admission ticket. FastPass+ service allows TicketsatWork members to reserve access to select Walt Disney World rides, attractions, entertainment and Character Greetings—over 60 experiences—in advance. Guests who have a Walt Disney World Resort hotel reservation may start making selections as early as 60 days prior to their check-in date, and 30 days for those who are not.

How does it work?
After purchasing your Walt Disney World tickets at TicketsWork, link your park admission to your My Disney Experience account and—voilà! Select from a list of experiences and times that work best for your party. You also have the flexibility to change plans at any time–from anywhere–using the My Disney Experience mobile app. FastPass+ selections may also be made on the same day of your visit at a FastPass+ kiosk. Once you’re at the park, check in at FastPass+ entrances during your scheduled arrival time by tapping your MagicBand to the touch point. That’s it. Enjoy!

How many FastPass+ selections can I make each day?
For one Disney theme park per day, you can secure up to 3 FastPass+ selections. Reserve access to the most popular rides like Mission: Space or Toy Story Midway Mania, entertainment options such as Fantasmic, Character Greetings with Anna and Elsa or Mickey Mouse himself! Viewing areas for parades and fireworks may also be included. After using all three initial FastPass+ selections (or the last arrival window has passed), you can select another FastPass+ experience for the same day at an in-park kiosk. After using that one, you can choose another, and so on, until the park closes.

Do I need to have a MagicBand?
Although MagicBands—colorful, waterproof wristbands—are an extremely convenient all-in-one-device, they are not required, as the plastic card you receive when you purchase park admission tickets works in a similar fashion. Just scan either your MagicBand or card at FastPass+ kiosks and queues.

How does FastPass+ benefit me?
FastPass+ takes fun and efficiency to the next level! TicketsatWork members get to enjoy this complimentary benefit at no extra cost, giving you unprecedented power to reserve access to the most must-do experiences—before you even leave home. Plus, you can manage and update your selections on the go. Less time waiting, more time enjoying The Most Magical Place on Earth with the people you love. Happy planning!
