There is so much to see and do at Walt Disney World; it can be hard to know where to begin. Here is a list of recommended “Must-See” Attractions and FastPass tips to help you get started. General FastPass+ Tips for every park You will be relying heavily on the My Disney Experience app within the parks, and it is a huge drain on your battery! • Think about changing the settings on your phone so other features are not taking a toll on your battery. There is free Wi- Fi in the parks. • Consider carrying a portable charger. There are also vending machines with Fuel Rod chargers you can purchase in the parks. When that charger has no more power, you can swap it in the parks for a fully charged one at no additional cost. If you plan to make your own FastPass reservations, keep in mind that Disney Resort Guests can make FastPass selections at 6 am CST 60 days in advance. We HIGHLY recommend that you take advantage of this and make your selections as early as possible. Remember, FastPass reservations can be modified from your My Disney Experience app while you are in the parks. Also, you can book additional FastPasses once you have used your three pre-reserved FastPasses. If you need assistance, ask any Disney Cast Member.
