We did the soarin one last time at opening our time was 10:50am so we were able fastpass it again at 10:50 and still it was for 12:20(or thereabouts) - Just remind them the two parks are on different fastpass systems so once you leave DL and enter DCA you can imediately get a pass in DCA

That's why I am interested to know the skinny on Soarin's "standby" wait times and turn around times on fastpasses for a Saturday. But you just said it took only about an hour and a half for turn around time .... that's good! Unlike Splash M. or Space Mountain where fastpass turn around times are spaced out by HOURS! With Soarin' being DCA's best attraction ... we'd get and out .. as this is her first time to DL ever .. and me knowing what the better park is :~ ... we're best to concentrate our little time on DL. :~)

Originally Posted By TinksBestFriend Mrs ElderP I am aware of the free parking at DtD but I did not know about Mickey and Friends not charging within 3 hours of closing. BTW 2 additional hours free with validation at DtD. x Pirate Princess X I sometimes go to the very top of the parking structure to watch the fireworks. You are above most of the trees and you get a nice panoramic view. No music unless you bring your own.

But I just woke up and haven't had too much coffee, so I might be confused. <3
