You never quite know what you’re going to get when you take a trip to Walt Disney World ®. Even if you’re lucky enough to visit the park frequently, there is still a little bit of magic that can always surprise you on a visit. One such surprise is the bonus FASTPASSES that many guests, including you might not even know about and that only a few get to experience.

As you know a FASTPASS is a little ticket that you can pick up at several Disney ® rides and attractions that let’s you come back to that ride or attraction at a different, less crowded time, thus allowing you to avoid waiting in long lines. Well now when you go to get a FASTPASS for your favorite ride or attraction you just may be surprised with two FASTPASSES –one for the ride or attraction you want to come back to later and one surprise ticket for another of Disney’s ® many attractions!

These special surprise FASTPASSES are typically distributed when the parks are overcrowded and it’s always a surprise! From Dumbo the Flying Elephant, Mickey’s PhilharMagic, and Carousel of Progress at Magic Kingdom ® to Mission: SPACE, Test Track, Living with the Land, or Soarin’ at Epcot ®. Talk about spreading the extra magic on a busy day!
