Unlimitted FastPass?

I read on another website that Disney will be introducing an "unlimitted fastpass" system to certain guests in the future. Apparently for those who buy tickets from the Walt Disney Travel Company (or through AAA). This will allow you to get as many fast passes as you want for as many rides as you want but just not two for the same ride until you existing fastpass reaches its start time.

Can anybody confirm this? I don't like the idea. It just seems to me like all of the rides will just run out of passes early while a select group reaps the biggest benefit. I believe all guests who buy a ticket should have the same rights and privlidges as any other guest.

I hope this is not true.

Personally, I think this would be a huge mistake. I would guess that the number of guests who have purchased their tickets through WDW travel on any given summer day would be as high as 40,000 people. The fastpass system is fragile as it is. I have often seen the Test Track wait for fast pass over 6 hours, on a non crowded day. If you don't get your fastpass by noon, you are basically out of luck.

I could see something like this being added for people who purchase a Dream Maker Gold package, or something similar, since the number that purchase a package that expensive is pretty low, and most likely won't upset the balance of the fast pass system.

As with everything else, I will post any information that I receive on the front page.
