FastPass+ Most Certainly Not Coming Back As It Was

[Queen of the WDW Scene]

No foul intended. My point was that yes. Attendance was not the same level(s) back in the day, but Disney is trying to have it's cake and eat it too.

To that point aren't they all?

 

[Parker in NYC]

To that point aren't they all?

Sure but Disney used to have better cake.

Given there are many self described Disney fanatics here to which theming is a important (vital?) part of their Disney experience, why are they rushing through the line? Why aren’t the spending longer in the queues? I mean immersion is a word oft used.

After all if that is what separates Disney from other amusement parks in their mind why do they chose to miss that?

I would think the theming is important but after you go through the same queue 10 times then its more about just getting on the ride.

Because we’ve seen the verses hundreds of times and choose to go straight to the chorus.

Mine was a rhetorical question.

You’re going to get a response on a discussion board.

See my response above.

 

[Willmark]

I’m aware.

And you’re also missing the point apparently?

I go on shorter trips and I like to do as many of my favorites as I can.

Also many queues while detailed are too dimly lit for me to see the detail. Instead I'm trying not to trip and holding onto someone so I don't just stop and look like a deer in headlights because I cannot see. The amount of stop and go in long standby lines can make it feel longer when you have to hold onto someone the entire time.

I can’t speak for others, but the queues for me are seldom worth the extra time, no matter how immersive they may be (and many aren’t immersive at all). I would sooner spend time savouring the theming of the attractions and lands themselves.

So regardless of theming, riding as many rides as possible is far more important?

 

[The Lochness Monsta]

I'd probably charge people for Fastpasses. Then again that's yet another free perk Disney Resorts wouldn't have.

Yep, I'd make Scrooge look like Tiny Tim.

Not at all. I use the extra time to shop and dine too (the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater is a must-do for me, as enjoyable as any headliner).

 

[Jrb1979]

I'm surprised with all of this stuff going in regards to FP with the kiosks that nothing has been hinted at recently

I would hardly think you’re represenative in that matter though, no?

 

[LittleBuford]

You called on Disney fanatics to explain why they would avoid queues and I answered! I have no idea whether I’m representative or not.

I want theming in the queues, but I don't need to spend an hour staring at it in order to appreciate it.
