Top FastPass+ Picks @ EPCOT

When it comes to planning your magical Walt Disney World Vacation, your Disney specialized travel agent will ask you which FastPass+ Reservations you would like to make 60 days ahead of time!  Now, I know what you're thinking, how could you possibly know what your family will want to ride 2 months before you travel???

As we plan out your FastPass+ picks, the age group of your family comes into play here.  We want to ensure that your family can enjoy the attractions that they want to.  At EPCOT, the FastPass+ options are in 2 tiers.  You can choose 1 attraction from Tier 1 and 2 attractions from Tier 2. There are 13 attractions at EPCOT that can be reserved with a FastPass+.

Tier 1 Attractions (Choose 1):

  • Soarin'
  • Frozen Ever After
  • Test Track
  • Illuminations:  Reflections of Earth
Tier 2 Attractions (Choose 2):
  • Disney/ Pixar Short Film Festival
  • Journey into Imagination with Figment
  • Spaceship Earth
  • The Seas with Nemo & Friends
  • Epcot Character Spot
  • Mission:  SPACE Green
  • Mission:  SPACE Orange
  • Living with the Land


So, we have compiled a list of the top 5 FastPass+ picks at the EPCOT, check them out below!

5.  EPCOT Character Spot

This attraction in Future World is a great way to meet all of Mickey's Pals!  Generally you will meet with Goofy, Pluto, Donald, Minnie, and Mickey.  The lines can get long for this attraction since you can meet so many characters in one spot.  I generally recommend a FastPass+ for those families with small children.  The line is inside, so it's a great way to get out of the Florida sun, making it a great time to relax in the air conditioning.

4.  Spaceship Earth

This attraction has been around since the park opening!  The icon of the park, is a very old-school animitronics attraction that literally brings you to the top of the ball at the parks entrance.  Although the line usually moves, during the busier times, the wait times can get pretty long.



3.  Test Track

Test Track is one of the more popular attractions at EPCOT and will take up your one Tier 1 Attraction for a FastPass+.  Although popular, Test Track offers a single rider line which moves pretty quickly.  So, if you're ok with splitting up your group, this is my recommendation instead of using a FastPass+.

2.  Frozen Ever After

This is another Tier 1 Attraction.  Located in World Showcase in the Norway Pavilion, Frozen Ever After is a very popular ride taking you through various scenes in the movie Frozen.  We have seen wait times for this attraction reach 3 hours, thus having a FastPass+ is important.

1.  Soarin'

Also another Tier 1 Attraction, Soarin' is located in the Land Pavilion in Future World, taking you on a trip around the world.  This is also a very popular ride, with wait times averaging over an hour, even with the addition of the 3rd theater.
