A note from Leap: As of Oct. 19, 2021, the FastPass+ service at Walt Disney World has been replaced with the Disney Genie+ system. For an additional cost, guests can bypass the standby line and utilize the reimagined Lightning Lanes. Guests will have the option to make individual Lightning Lane selections using the Lightning Lane entrance or can opt for the Disney Genie+ service. With the Disney Genie+ service ($15 per ticket per day at Walt Disney World), guests will be able to choose the next available time to arrive at a variety of attractions and experiences using the Lightning Lane entrance. You can make one selection at a time, throughout the day. Check out our Disney Genie Frequently Asked Questions for more information!
Trying to decide which attractions to use FastPass+ on isn't easy, especially when you can only make advance reservations for three of them. It's even tougher at the Walt Disney World parks that use a tiered FastPass+ system ... and EPCOT is one of them! With only a few major attractions and EPCOT FastPass+ tiers, you need to do a little bit of planning. You'll find the EPCOT FastPass+ recommendations on our EPCOT Park Plan.
At EPCOT (just like Disney's Hollywood Studios), there are two tiers of FastPass+ selections. You may choose one selection from the first tier and two selections from the second tier. You will be given a set of times for each of your selections, which you can modify (to get a better time, for example). It's easy to make, modify or cancel reservations from the My Disney Experience app or any kiosk in any park. While you’re at the park, once you’ve redeemed your three pre-planned FastPass+ selections, you can also make additional selections (one at a time) via the app or park kiosks based on availability throughout the day.
As a reminder, resort guests can book reservations up to 60 days in advance of check-in for their length of stay (up to 10 days) using the My Disney Experience website or app. Non-resort guests can book reservations up to 30 days in advance of each day of their theme park visit. Reservations start at 7 a.m. Eastern Time. EPCOT FastPass+ tiers and kiosk locations are subject to change at any time.
EPCOT is going through a ton of toadally exciting changes, bringing new attractions and experiences to the park. While construction is underway and we wait (not so patiently) for the likes of Mary Poppins, Ratatouille, Guardians of the Galaxy and the new "HarmonioUS" (billed as the largest nighttime spectacular ever created for a Disney park), here were EPCOT's FastPass+ offerings leading up to the pandemic.
