As part of the test-and-adjust process for MyMagic+ and based on the success of the test occurring at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, a test of Disney FastPass+ service will begin at Magic Kingdom Park on January 14, 2014. This test will allow all Guests (including those not staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel) visiting Magic Kingdom Park the ability to make three FastPass+ selections for the current day at that theme park using FastPass+ kiosks. Disney’s FASTPASS Service (using paper FASTPASS tickets) will not be available throughout the duration of this test at Magic Kingdom Park.
Kiosks are located near the Diamond Horseshoe, Mickey’s PhilharMagic, Pete’s Silly Sideshow, Stitch’s Great Escape! and Town Square Theater. Additional locations to make FastPass+ selections will be available in key areas throughout the park. These may change over the course of the day as demand permits. Temporary signage will be used when they are in effect, and FastPass+ Cast Members will be present to assist Guests. Cast Members using mobile devices will be available near the FastPass+ kiosks to assist Guests in making FastPass+ selections. Disney’s FASTPASS Service (using paper ticket dispensing) will not be available during the test. FASTPASS ticket dispensers will be covered up to avoid confusion. Guests will receive information about the test at the auto plaza. This information will also be available for Guests to pick up throughout the park. Guests visiting Disney’s Animal Kingdom will continue to have the opportunity to participate in the same FastPass+ test as well.
Guests who are NOT staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel will have the ability to make up to three FastPass+ selections using one of the FastPass+ kiosks located throughout the theme park., will have the ability to modify these using FastPass+ kiosks, will redeem their FastPass+ selections by touching their theme park tickets to the touch points at the FastPass+ experiences they have chosen, and will have access to use Disney FastPass+ service at only Disney’s Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom Park. Guests who are not staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel can still use Disney’s FASTPASS Service (using paper FASTPASS tickets) at Epcot and/or Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Guests who ARE staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel will continue to engage in MyMagic+ as they have been and have the ability to make three FastPass+ selections in advance or day-of for one park per day, will continue to have the ability to select, modify or cancel their FastPass+ selections using My Disney Experience on their mobile devices, at FastPass+ kiosks or at service centers.

Paper is gone but the plus worked great at our last trip! #ymbada
Will paper fastpasses ever come back? “Disney’s FASTPASS Service (using paper ticket dispensing) will not be available during the test” seems to imply the possibility.
