Seriously, FastPass was a great system. It worked well, the FP and standby lines were manageable – and it was free. EVERY Guest with a ticket could get one. The playing field was level. And when all the FP for an attraction were gone for the day, the standby line moved faster.
I know that we will likely never see the return of something that worked so well, but I will always be salty about the cash grab and advantage for Guests with more money to spend.
FastPass set Disney parks a notch over all other theme parks, as it was a free perk that no other park had. I once paid for the Six Flags pass (back when it was safe to get on their rides), and it was a colossal waste of money.
In my opinion, those of us who figured out how to make the best out of the free
Fast pass system were penalized. We know it was really all about money but supposedly Genie+ was supposed to level the playing field. The same folks who never figured out fastpass still will not figure out genie+. If you like the universal model so much, how about you just go to Universal. To get the free express pass you have to stay at the deluxe resorts or pay nearly $400 per day per person. Walt is probably spinning in his grave at this point because greed is winning.
