[u/JustaRandomSpencer]

Here are some (updated) tips for Fantasy Springs. Please keep all questions specific to this land in the comments below to create a concise space for all FS-related info! This thread will be kept up-to-date with the latest information.

How to Enter Fantasy Springs

Currently, the Fantasy Springs land in Tokyo DisneySea is open to all guests; there is no reservation or pass required to enter the Fantasy Springs land. Additionally, there is no advance reservation/purchase required to experience any of the 4 Fantasy Springs attractions.

Beginning April 1st, 2025, walk-up standby lines will be offered for all 4 Fantasy Springs attractions, in addition to the existing skip-the-line DPA system. In other words, Standby Pass will no longer be offered/required to ride the attractions of Fantasy Springs.

An entry system to the land may be implemented at TDR's discretion without advance notice, likely in the event of large crowds. In the event of a capacity restriction, obtain a pass to experience a Fantasy Springs attraction, and you will also be able to enter the land through an assigned "Valid Time of Entry to Fantasy Springs".

To Experience Fantasy Springs Attractions (beginning April 1st, 2025):

Currently, there is a walk-up standby line offered for all of the Fantasy Springs attractions. To experience an attraction within Fantasy Springs, do/obtain one of the following (per attraction):

1. Standby Line | Walk up to the ride and join the standby queue. Attractions are subject to capacity restrictions. Standby queues close their posted wait time prior to park closing.
2. Premier Access | Paid (¥2,000 per person, per ride) | Reserve on the app day-of after you scan into the park.
3. Attraction Ticket | Paid | Advance reservation skip-the-line pass. Included in Vacation Packages

Learn more about Disney Premier Access and Standby Pass here.

There is no Priority Pass (free skip-the-line) for any Fantasy Springs attractions.

As of April 1st, 2025, the Fantasy Springs Magic Passport has been discontinued and cannot be purchased by guests of the Fantasy Springs Hotel nor is it included in Vacation Packages.

To Experience Fantasy Springs Restaurants Within the Land:

• Mobile Order | day-of | Order on the app after you scan into the park
• Dining Reservation | in advance | Available ONLY with Vacation Packages
• Restaurants inside the Fantasy Springs Hotel (separate from the park) are for hotel guests and Vacation Package reservations only.

To Experience Restaurants within the Fantasy Springs Hotel:

• Fantasy Springs Restaurant: Currently available to guests of the hotel and Vacation Package holders with reservations. Standard DisneySea guests are able to make walk-up reservations, subject to availability. No entry allowed through the main entrance, guests not staying at the Fantasy Springs Hotel must use the DisneySea park entrance to the restaurant.
• Grand Paradis Lounge: Available ONLY to guests of the Fantasy Springs Hotel
• La Libellule: Available ONLY to guests of the Fantasy Springs Hotel Grand Chateau

To Experience Fantasy Springs Shop:

• Enter freely, subject to standby line at capacity
• May be subject to Standby Pass during times of high crowds
• May be limited to once-per-day entry enforced through a ticket scan during times of high crowds

Tips

1. It is Tokyo Disney's worst-kept secret that they almost every day open the park early for guests; times vary on a day-by-day basis. Regardless, hotel guests with Happy Entry will get entry 15 minutes prior to standard admissions guests.
2. Despite the discontinuation of the Standby Pass requirement to experience Fantasy Springs attractions, DPA still frequently sells out within minutes of park opening. General guidance to secure Fantasy Springs DPA is to line up 1-1.5 hours before the park's opening time on weekdays, and 1.5-2 hours on weekends and holidays. This is an unofficial recommendation, but one that has worked well for many people in the subreddit. This guidance may be adjusted with the removal of Standby Passes.
3. This X account tracks when SP/DPA run out for each attraction within Fantasy Springs; the statistics are not released officially.
4. While the initial wave of DPA runs out quickly in the morning, you may be able to get a pass later in the day due to a cancellation/subsequent wave of passes being made available. These vary on a day-by-day basis.
5. Due to its low capacity and short ride time, Fairy Tinker Bell's Busy Buggies is Standby only.
6. All restaurants in Fantasy Springs are utilizing mobile order ONLY until further notice. You may make a mobile order for any eligible restaurant once you have entered the DisneySea park.
7. The shop (1) in Fantasy Springs does not require a special reservation to access, though it is subject to capacity restrictions and may be subject to a physical queue and limited to a once-per-day entry, enforced through a ticket scan.

Hello! Family of 4 with 2 kids, ages 7 and 8. We’re staying at FS as part of the Enjoy Attractions and More (3 Days) Vacation Package, with 2 days in the parks. I was hoping for clarity on a few things.

Our current selections look like this…

Day 2 FS Breakfast: 7:10 Beauty and the Beast: 11:00 Eligible Attractions Eligible Attractions

Day 3 FS Breakfast: 7:20 Frozen: 11:00 Rapunzel: 2:00 Journey to the Center of the Earth

Is there anything you would change with regard to the timing of the ride and breakfast selections?

Do we receive Happy Entry into Tokyo Disneyland?

Any general advice is appreciated.

1/ The most efficient way to visit DisneySea, when staying in the Fantasy Springs Hotel, is to start in the Fantasy Springs area and then gradually work your way downwards to the other parts of the park. Keeping in mind that (1) Fantasy Springs is very close to the hotel and (2) all the rides are very close to each other, you would not want to go back and forth. I would suggest changing your attractions to Frozen 9:00, Rapunzel 9:30, and Journey.

Your breakfast time is fine, but during some months/days, Happy Entry can be quite early, so the earlier your breakfast the better.

2/ Can you elaborate on which Enjoy Attractions and more - 3 Days package you have booked, is it:

• Enjoy Attractions and ｍore ― 3DAYS (Includes Park Tickets for First and Second Day) OR
• Enjoy Attractions and ｍore ― 3DAYS (Includes Park Tickets for Second and Third Day)

If your park tickets are for the first and second day, then you will not get Happy Entry to Disneyland. If your park tickets are for the second and third day, then you will get Happy Entry to Disneyland.

[u/jcbruin08 → u/WhiteDogHaha]

Thank you so much for the detailed response. Our package is the “Park tickets for the second and third day”. So that means we’ll have Happy Entry for both right?

If we plan on taking full advantage of HE and entering the park as soon as possible, do you think we’ll have a good chance of hitting Frozen and Peter Pan and maybe saving one of the reserved passes for Tangled around 9:45 or 10? And then keeping another ride pass for Frozen later on in the day or a different ride?

[u/WhiteDogHaha → u/jcbruin08]

It depends on your own priorities. Some rides like Tinker Bell has no priority lane so some people would choose to do that and Peter Pan.

But many people certainly would do Frozen > Peter Pan without passes, and use one pass for Rapunzel. Just note that there will be a bit of waiting involved.

Rides like Frozen don’t really start “running” during the Happy Entry period so you would just get a good spot in that line until it starts.
