Default Attraction in Need of a Fast Pass

Which rides or attractions at Disneyland Park do you think should have a Fast Pass Service?

I think Matterhorn and Peter Pan need Fast Pass Services because both get really long lines. But that is just my opinion.

There are a couple rides that I'd like to see lose their FastPass systems. Can't say I can think of any that need it that don't already have it. Can't wait to hear the FastPass bashers lay in on this one!

I really can't think of any that really need a FastPass. The other rides don't have consistently long lines every day. Peter Pan probably would help to have one (Peter Pan in Magic Kingdom Park in WDW has FastPass) but there's space to place a FastPass station and area does become a pedestrian choke point at times because of the Peter Pan queue line winds outside the building.

I wish since the refurb of POTC that they would have a fastpass system for that ride. I really think that Matterhorn needs a fastpass system, and I really wish they didn't take away the fastpasses for Star Tours, because that ride's line can get pretty long.

Fastpass

Pros:

- A quick walk to the ride
- Very short line (depends)
- Save time at the park
- When the regular quene lime is too long

Cons:
- For the inpatient people
- Cards being glitched
- Wasting time. If you fastpassed earlier, and you wanted to ride a different ride, when the time is near.

Every time I've been to DL, I've never needed a fastpass for Star Tours. A 20-30 minute wait is short enough to where a fastpass isn't needed.

^ It's A Small World Holiday does have a FastPass system usually. Can't remember if it did last year or not.

i dont think that star tours, haunted mansion and even its a small world need it because i never see the lines for those rides over 30 min. matterhorn needs one but it will be difficult because the line is already tight, not sure where they would add the fastpass section.

they do have FP for HM but only for the holidays. they had one for Pirates but they needed the other line back for the Refurb. ISAW does not need one if you want to ride it show your dedication to he song by sanding in the line lol. yes one for the MatterHorn would be nice, but if you think about it the line moves pretty quickly. yes lots of other rides would like a FP but a ride would not be a ride with out a line.

Personally, I would like to see Peter Pan have a FP line. I almost never get to ride it anymore and it's my favorite ride! The line is always SO long and I can't stand waiting in that line because I get really claustrophobic. Although, realisitcally, Peter Pan couldn't have a FP line. Lack of room and a small ride capacity prevent FP from really working for this attraction.

A lot of people mentioned Matterhorn, but I really don't think it needs it. Sure, the line is constantly long and usually wraps all the way around the mountain. But have you ever waited in that line? I've seen the line wrap all the way around to the opposite side of the loading area and it was only about a 30 minute wait. And when they have both lines open, the wait is even shorter.

All Fantasyland attractions don't need a FP system. It would require a massive change in fantasyland all together just for FP's. Besides most of them take 30 min just to ride. ISAW Holiday Version doesn't have FP's anymore.
