100% agree with this. Here's what I posted on another thread to illustrate this very point.
California = FastPass (paper) and MaxPass since Jan 2017 (digital). A predominantly local audience. 20 attractions available. Two parks at the resort. A free option and a low cost digital option. Both allow same day access to passes.
Tokyo = FastPass (Digital and paper) and Standby Virtual Queues. 18 attractions available. A predominately local audience. Two parks at the resort. Resort guests can get a set number of paper “anytime, any attraction” passes as part of booking a package. Both allow same day access to passes. Standby virtual queue works in the same way as Rise of the Resistance boarding passes. A virtual queue that uses a lottery system. Not all guests that want to access can, but it is random chance.
Shanghai = Disney Premier Access since Mar 2017. 8 attractions available. A local and tourist audience. One park at the resort. A single pass is 120 Chinese Yuan or about $18 USD. A pass set of 8 for 660 Chinese Yuan or about $100 USD. Allows only same day access.
Hong Kong = FastPass (paper). A local and tourist audience. 3 attractions available. One park at the resort. Scan your ticket at kiosks at the attractions and obtain a paper FastPass. Free to access. Same day access only.
Paris = Disney Premier Access and Standby Virtual Queues. 10 attractions available. A local and tourist audience. Two parks at the resort. Passes will now cost between 8-15 euro ($9.50 - 18 USD) per attraction. Free standby virtual queues will be available as well.
Florida = Unsure. Previously FastPass+ (Digital). A predominantly tourist audience. 65 attractions available. Four parks at the resort. Resort guests could book 60 days in advance. Annual pass holders and day guests could book 30 days in advance.
No two properties use the same system. Not even Shanghai and Paris, as DPA is different at each park.Looking at those options: WDW is an entirely different resort than any of the other properties worldwide. WDW has a staggering 65 attractions on FastPass, and this doesn't include Rise of the Resistance, Remy's Ratatouille Adventure and the upcoming attractions like Tron & Guardians. The property with the next most attractions on FastPass is
Disneyland with 20. WDW has nearly 3.5 times the attractions available on FastPass. There's just no way to implement a purely "pay per ride" system for that many rides without seriously alienating guests. Extra passes for purchase? Absolutely.
