saraha Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 If we have 8 fastpasses for tower of terror, but only 4 want to ride it, can they then use the fast passes of the non riders to ride again? Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatherwith4 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Are they attached to Magic Bands? You would have to scan the band the fast pass is attached to, but yes it could be done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoobie Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Yes, but you'll have to switch magic bands around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saraha Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 (edited) So, I don't know if they are magic bands. I am not actually sure what the fastpass actually is. I know after we bought our tickets I went online and registered for fastpasses, but I thought maybe they were tickets they mailed to us like our park tickets? eta: We are not staying on site Edited September 1, 2016 by saraha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatherwith4 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Are you staying onsite? If you are, you will get magic bands. If not, you can still purchase magic bands, and link all your reservations and fast passes to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saraha Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 Do we need to buy magic bands? Is this the only way to use fastpasses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatherwith4 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 I don't think so. I think you can still use the paper tickets? Someone else will need to chime in here, because I've only been once, and we had the bands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlktwins Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 No. We went 2 years ago and didn't have magic bands. We had to scan our tickets to enter the rides with our FP+ reservations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saraha Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 (edited) I found this on the disney website, but it doesn't say how to get the cards. Q. How do I use my MagicBand or card when I have a FastPass+ arrival time at an attraction or entertainment experience? A. It’s so easy that you’ll think it’s magic! When you arrive during your scheduled FastPass+ arrival time, all you need to do is proceed to the FASTPASS queue entrance and touch your MagicBand or card to a sensor called a touch point. That’s it! Please remember that each member of your party will have to individually touch their MagicBand or card to the touch point, so everyone should be sure to have their MagicBand or card available.

saraha Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 No. We went 2 years ago and didn't have magic bands. We had to scan our tickets to enter the rides with our FP+ reservations. So our tickets are linked to our fastpass choices? Like the actual park tickets? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlktwins Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Yes. We stayed offsite and bought our tickets from Undercover Tourist. We didn't get paper tickets. I had them mailed to me and they were plastic like a credit card. We linked them up to the Disney website to make our FP reservations. Each of us wore our ticket on a lanyard and just scanned it at the ride. The reservations are specific to each ticket number. Someone please correct me if this has changed! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanny Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 We were in WDW the last week of April, on 4 day Park Hopper tickets. We did not buy the MagicBands. I think they were $2.95 for each person. It is more convenient, however... We were in one of the parks, and DD saw a MagicBand fall off a person walking in front of us. She picked it up and returned it to the person. That made me glad we hadn't bought them. If you have magicBands, be certain they are on securely...

speedmom4 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Boy, I read the title of your post wrong! So glad the word "fastpass" wasn't what it looked like at first! :eek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wimseycat Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 FWIW I highly recommend photographing or making a paper copy of your tickets with the barcode visible. My sister (somewhat flaky) took our tickets to get a FastPass and left my daughter's ticket in the machine. We didn't notice until the next day when we were leaving for Hollywood Studios. Luckily I had a photocopy and the Disney ticket counter was able to reissue a new ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
