I have been an idiot. Or I've failed to realize that a certain museum or attraction sells out 3 months in advance. I think everyone has. People here tend to microplan, which is fine, but not what I'm talking about. I'm not calling anyone an idiot for not microplanning. I'm saying there isn't an excuse for not knowing anything about fast pass at all. It's easy to find out about on line, in a guide book, at a
travel agent, at the gate, at a fast pass kiosk, from a cast member. I know most people here won't agree, but you do not need to plan 6 months, 3 months, or even one month out to have a good time. You might not get fast passes to the hottest attractions, or ADRs to Ohanas or BOG but you'll still get 3 or more fast passes and you won't starve.
All it takes is asking someone what the fast pass is. I mean, it's the equivalent of seeing a bus and complaining after your trip that you don't know where the buses ran, so you walked all the way and you blame the bus system for the fact you didn't see as much...but you never took the bus system! All you have to do is ask someone. I don't get it.
