Flash Pass

Have any of you ever used one of these?  It sounds like a great idea and I think that the woman and I are going to use it next month at SFGAdv.

That looks pretty darn awesome.  Now if I can just win the lottery to be able to afford this plus the park admission. :sad11:

They have been using Lo-Q for quite awhile now at the parks.  It was originally called Fast Lane and featured Speedy Gonzales as the mascot of the system.  IMHO not worth it and too much of a hassle.  Oh and Jason sounds like Ka will be down when you are at SFGAdv.

It's definately lookin' bad for Ka but it's starting to look good for El Toro.

Did the old system use these handheld devices?  I remember getting a fast pass at SFMM but it was paper and could only be used 4 twice.

The paper thing was the precursor to the Lo-Q.  SFStL, GAm, oT, oG, GAdv, and a few others I know have had the Lo-Q system for awhile now.  WoA also had it as I remember it creating a huge problem with X-Flight.

I don't like it, but I guess to each his own.  FWIW, I don't like Fast Pass at WDW/DL either.

I used it at SFStL, but they're SO EXPENSIVE.
btw to Dustijn: FastPass is okay, but the 1hr wait between tickets is a pain.
