I'm thinking of something you buy with your ticket. The fast pass is a good idea, but that's not what I was thinking about.

No, there's nothing you can purchase to get you through the lines faster. All you can do is use the FastPass, which actually does help a lot at times and makes the wait shorter. If you're staying at a Disney Resort you can take advantage of the Extra Magic Hours, when only Guests are allowed into the parks. The parks are usually significantly less crowded, and even at the most popular attractions you can literally walk right on with no wait.

The Fast Pass is the most efficient way to get through the lines faster. Handicap individuals also get to move to the front of the line. And Extra Magic Hours do come in handy. Another thing to remember is that during the off season, during the weekdays, the parks are especially slow. I was there last week and Studios was almost empty on Tuesday and Magic Kingdom wasn't bad on Wednesday. But by the time Friday and Saturday were around, the parks were packed. That's something to keep in mind. The non-peak seasons are usually Jan 2 - March and Sept until Thanksgiving.

The fast pass is the only way. And don't enter the fast pass line without a fast pass or prior to the scheduled time on your fast pass. They monitor them closely and they'll turn you back. I've seen it happen on several occasions.
The other answers are correct in this forum. Having someone in a wheel chair with you is one way (other than a fastpass) to get on a ride quickly on busy days. Last December, 2005, we took my parents to Disney World, on the second day, we went to EPCOT. Although my mom is not handicapped, she is in her early sixties. By 2pm she could not walk anymore so we rented a wheelchair for her. We went to the front of every line after that.
My best advice to you is to go to Disney World during the off-season... September to the week before Thanksgiving, anytime in December before Christmas, and anytime in January through Presidents Day weekend. The crowds at these times are minimal so lines won't be an issue. Just make sure you don't go to the Magic Kingdom in early December when they're filming their Christmas Day special. We made that mistake last year. It was the busiest day I'd ever visited any park.

The fast pass is the best way. When we went we would go to all the rides we wanted to get on and collect fast passes from there then we would line up the times cronoligically and then we would know how much time we had to get on other rides that were not as popular or shopping and then go to that ride get on and then move on. It was great!

Get a fast pass for long lines. Last time we were there it was free. But you could only get 1 fast pass in 1 hour.

The only thing you can do is to get a fast pass at rides that have it or go sometime during September or January when crowds are less.

If they have fast passes there, invest in one. I don't know if they have them at disney world, havent been in a while. They have them at 6 flags and they work wonders for long lines.

only in the universal parks - they have a VIP line if you're staying at one of their three properties.
my recommendation -- go the opposite way of the crowd! in epcot - go to the pavillions first - everyone starts at the rides.
disney - i usually hit the frontierland first and work backwards.
mgm - again start in the back....
