The AP cost per day should be reward enough.

Honestly, I think these FP discussions would be a lot shorter if somehow the "passing up" was just not so visible to the Standby line. When FP works, it works. Hey, maybe I'll get some t-shirts made up with that...

Maybe better education of how to use FP on the Disney channel in room ( if people would pay attention to it) would help also...

The standby line consists of basically three different types...those that do not know about FP or how to use it, those that could not get one because they were all out for the day, and those that chose to go in standby voluntarily. Having witnessed the first and experienced the other two, it is frustrating for all, especially if the time starts to get excessive. If you can't see the Fast Passers then it is a mystery why the line is slow and not really a big problem, if you can see it then it becomes a sore point. So get rid of it or fix it. That is what I told the Disney people and it is the feeling that I still have. Since they don't seem willing to fix it, and they have had opportunities with some new rides, then I am in favor of dropping it completely.
