What fast passes (no thrill rides lol)

What fast passes excluding thrill rides are worth it

Seems like most of them are thrill rides. Haunted Mansion typically gives you a quicker return time, I think. Roger Rabbit (which is sort of thrillish if you're spinning) skips the line, but you don't actually want to do that.

So, Haunted Mansion!

Toy Story, Mansion (on a busy day)

Is Soarin a thrill ride? Doesn't matter I guess. Soarin FPs suck. You still wait like 20-30 minutes. Especially when you have to request the front row, middle section like me.

I've read that Enchanted Tales with Belle and all the princess meet and greets are worth the FP+

Yeah, Soarin FPs are the worst -- especially if you hit it at the wrong time where even the FP line is out the door and you end up waiting in almost the same line as standby!

So conflicted re: Roger! The queue is pretty cool, but sometimes you feel trapped in that thing and it seemingly goes on forever! Just when you think you're close to being on the ride, there's a whole other stretch to go through. Would only do the standby if it was 20 minutes or less.

Yes! I nominate Indy and Soarin for worst FPs. For Indy, on an average day you save what 15 minutes? Not to mention it has one of the best queues. Space Mountain is still the best FP. You get on in 5 minutes. And with rider switch they let you go through the exit. Literally a walk on.

Matterhorn has a bit of a wait for FP as well...maybe comparable to Indy but not quite as bad? Indy FP pays off most times for us when the line is packed in the outside portion of the queue.

Yeah I guess Indy FPs are good if the line is 50 min +. I did Matterhorns FP once and I think it took about 10 -15 minutes to get on but it felt longer because of how tight that queue is.

Yeah, I feel like Indy used to get you way closer to the front of the line back in the day...or is my memory just fuzzy? Now it just gets you in the front door! Of course it's probably all just a matter of how they stagger the line so it's probably not much different, just how it's perceived.
