Fast Pass is the best way to plan your day.
Get a map of the parks you are going to visit, then plan to Fast Pass the most popular rides. This means you book a time to skip the line on a big ride, and while waiting on your time, you can go visit other rides and not spend your time standing in line! View a map of all of the parks here.
Birthday surprise!
If anyone in your group will have a birthday during the event – they can visit the guest service office in any park and receive a free birthday button. Then any Disney® cast member must tell them “Happy Birthday” all day long!
Pin Trading - Disney style.
Have your students visit their local chamber of commerce or novelty store to get inexpensive lapel pins. Show your city or state pride by bringing pins to trade throughout Faith in 3D. Added bonus: All Disney® cast members will trade pins with you – and their pins are very cool, and very expensive! Trade up while showing your civic pride! Learn more about pin trading here.
Pack in to Save!
On a tight budget? Disney® is expensive. You are welcome to make lunch or dinner on Friday and Saturday. Bring what you need and a couple of backpacks and have your group meet at the designated time to have a picnic in the park. Water bottles can be filled up throughout the parks as well.
