I'm sure we might feel differently if we had a larger party to coordinate with or children, but I don't really mind. We've always looked at the fastpass time and decided whether we would be able to be at the attraction at the starting time. If not exactly at the starting time then would we definitely be able to make it by the ending time. If neither of those we didn't get it. I understand they've been making exceptions but to me we've always gone with the original idea that between those two times are when we're supposed to return. Usually we're so anxious to use it that we're waiting outside for 10 minutes just for our time to come.
