I've been to Disneyland and World in the U.S. many times and rarely wait in line longer than 20 minutes through careful planning. I am excited Paris has the paper ticket Fastpass system as that means we can give our tickets to one person an designate them as the "Fastpass Runner" which is a strategy that worked very well for us before.
Having never been to Paris Disneyland I'm wondering what the recommended park hopping strategy is. Are any of the Fastpass machines "orphaned" from the system so you don't have to wait to get one, or can you get a Fastpass immediately when switching parks or is the system linked up for all rides in both parks?
Usually the main strategy is to enter the park that will have the longest lines in the afternoon first and send Fastpass runner to one of the two most popular rides and then meet the group and the other of the two most popular rides to line up. After this, the most popular rides will have long lines so do a "second tier" ride that does not have long lines in the morning while waiting to get next Fastpass. I would guess DIsneyland has longer lines in the afternoon than Studios so switch to Studios when? 11AM? 12PM? And get what fastpass and ride what ride?
Definitely we will be in Disneyland at closing for the show and from experience in the last hour, ride lines go down because many children can't last that long. It is in that last hour you can ride many rides for a second time with little wait.
