こんにちは My sister visited Disney Sea and went to Fantasy Springs yesterday. I gave her some advice about how to go around the park based on your video. She got a regular ticket and she wasn’t able to get any extra paid passes, but she could ride three rides in FS. She arrived at 6:30 and entered the park around 8:30. The time Standby pass of Frozen journey was 18:30 at the time. Thanks to your information, she could enjoy a lot! Thank you very much.

I’m not good at English sorry. Standby pass in Disney Sea will not releases all day, most of them are sold out within 1hour 2hours since the park opens. But my sister said if you check it and upload the app continuously, standby pass will sometimes show up, which is the one someone canceled. My sister got two of FS by that way.

I was able to get a standby pass to the Rapunzel ride and visited Fantasy Springs. It was probably luck because I heard a lot people couldn’t get in and they arrived super early. I had a great experience and tried amazing food like the salted raspberry ice cream. The rest of the park was empty and I was able to go on many rides that usually take no less than 45min.

The level of anxiety Disney puts people into these days with new attractions and lands opening is so annoying. There's a reason I didn't go on Rise of the Resistance until 3.5 years after it opened. In the 80s and 90s we knew when a new attraction opened, we were going to have to wait in a 3-4 hour line. That's what I did for Star Tours opening, Splash Mountain opening, and Indiana Jones Adventure opening.
@ThisIsDownstate5 ай бұрын
also....if the standby passes are gone then don't lose all hope. i saw quite a few people reporting on reddit that they were able to get a second or maybe a first SP by refreshing the app a lot. this was on a weekday, actually on opening day. someone actually snagged one as late as 3pm i think. but thats probably very lucky if that happens, but it seems like they were releasing the SP incrementally throughout the day according to what the folks on reddit were saying. i dont know if that is still the case though or if you also heard of people getting success that way. cheers for the info dude !
@gentlemanfarmer57385 ай бұрын
Of course. They need people to queue these attractions. They are very few people staying at the two Hotels and getting the Vacation pack. Their goal is to have a 5 minutes wait to all the attractions ? No they want people to buy their freaking DPA and use the standard line. the vacation pack is a ripoff.
@ThisIsDownstate5 ай бұрын
@@gentlemanfarmer5738 no you misunderstood my point I think. But I don't disagree about the DVP, well outta my price range. What I meant was it seems like for other rides with standby pass at Disneyland that they release all of them in the morning so when they're gone they're gone. But it seems for FS they release them every few hours incrementally so that people with regular tickets still have some chance of getting a standby pass even after all the hotel guests have gone in early and swagged em all. I could be wrong though. The DPA sell out so fast and once they're gone in my experience they never become available again. But for standby pass they seem to come available again later in the day.

@@AJ-vi8vv We booked for a stay in December for my daughter's birthday. She loves Frozen so I really wanted to let her see Arendelle castle and try the ride. It is crazy difficult. First off, you need to manipulate the URL so that the room is immediately chosen with the number of guests and nights that you want. Then you have to be ready on the booking site just as the room reservation for your day opens up. It opens up four months ahead exactly at 11AM JST. There is a virtual line to enter the booking site so that it won't go down due to all the traffic, so you have to be on the site a while before, but not too long in advance as you'll be kicked back in line again if you linger too long. Exactly 11AM JST, you need to enter your premade URL and reserve as quickly as possible. In about five seconds the hotel will be fully booked and you've lost your chance. I'm not even exaggurating 😂

Great video! Planning to spend 1 day at DisneySea on September 4. Do you think that it will be necessary to be lined up a couple of hours before park open to secure a spot in Fantasy Springs? Will students in Japan be back to school by this date? My daughter has trouble waiting for long periods of time, so I am not sure how she will deal with waiting 2-4 hours. We went to Universal Studios Orlando in April and were able to use their “Attractions Assistance Pass”, which we were able to arrange before we went. Does Tokyo Disney have something similar and can I arrange it before the visit or do I just speak to guest services once I am there? Although not the video for it perhaps, I have similar questions about USJ, which we plan to visit on August 8. (It would be nice if the new Donkey Kong area is open by then).
