ning to spend nine days in Orlando.

cluding when you can expect to arrive and depart each attraction, FastPass+ priority

We open with a discussion of one of Disney's newest innovations, FastPass+, and how
it has transformed the theme park experience in positive and negative ways. Maximizing
FastPass+ is an important strategic advantage and we'll cover the best methods to save you
hours in line every day.
Next, we focus on itinerary planning, including:
• Deciding how many days to visit each park.
• Picking the best park to visit each day based on crowds and entertainment offerings.
• Creating a daily touring plan that blends easy morning touring, strategically chosen
FastPass+ experiences, and the best dining choices.
Example itineraries are provided to give you an idea about how best to plan your vacation
in its entirety. Modifications can easily be made depending on where you want to go and
what you want to do.
This is the lengthiest chapter because the theme parks are what a Walt Disney World va-
cation is all about. Plan to digest it over several sessions.
FastPass+ at Walt Disney World
Disney's digital FastPass+ system replaced legacy paper FASTPASS in early 2014. More at-
tractions than ever before offer FastPass+, including night-time spectaculars like IllumiNa-
tions at Epcot and character meet and greets like Anna and Elsa at Magic Kingdom.
