How do the Fast Passes work? Is it 3 passes per day, or 3 passes per Park per day (if you are planning to Park hop).

Is it true there are no longer clocks in the Resort rooms?

How many days in advance can you purchase Park tickets?

I know: so many questions. Thank you for all your help.:bar:

You can book 3 fastpasses per day and they need to all be for the same park. After you've used them you can book additional fast passes at any park.

Never noticed that there were clocks in the restrooms.

Not sure on when you can purchase tickets, but some tickets do expire at the end of the year so when you buy them make sure that they are good through the date of your trip.

FastPass+: 3 initial FP+ selections per day. All 3 must be used in the same park. After using the initial 3, additional FP+ options MAY be selected, but you must use each one before you can select another. These additional FP+ options can be selected for ANY park.

Clocks: I have never noticed actual clocks in any of the Resort rooms I have stayed in. There IS, however, an alarm radio in each room with a digital clock face.

MYW Tickets: You can purchase park tickets at any time, although I believe they have started an end date for unused tickets. When you first use a 'ticket' to enter a park, then you have 14 days, in total, to use the remainder of the days on that ticket.

I just read where all alarm clocks have been removed from all resort rooms. Just looking for some confirmation. Thanks for your help.

I know they have been removed from all DVC properties and have read many posts that they are no longer in regular resort rooms either.

How odd to remove clocks from the rooms. How are you going to know what time it is when you wake up?

Do you wake up and wonder "how long do I have before my first fastpass?"

I guess Disney assumes EVERYONE has a smart phone by now and can use the alarm/clock on their phone to wake them up. I know this because everything they are doing now is geared to the smartphone...

Well, to be fair, I guess if you can afford a Disney trip, you can afford a smartphone.

We just got back. Stayed in a Nemo suite at AoA, there were alarm clocks in the bedroom and in the main room.

I always travel with my own anyway. It's a sound machine and has an alarm feature. I'm the rare person who doesn't use the alarm on my phone cause I don't like sleeping with my phone on the nightstand. To check the time, I have a watch.

True. But there are still some luddites out there who refuse to join in the 'fun' of the smartphone age.

It's nice to wake up in the middle of the night and see a clock face assuring you of the time. It's also nice to be able to glance at the clock from across the room while you're preparing for the day and know how much time you have until your breakfast reservation (without having your phone attached to your hand).
I wonder what's next for some people; having a smartphone embedded into their arms?
