Oh they're doing the fastpass bands for everyone now? They were pilot testing them when I was there.
Go the Canadian steakhouse for lunch, not dinner. Nearly the same food and way cheaper. POUTINE IS A MUST!
You can get on the rides easier when parades are in session, especially later in the day. Always do Animal Kingdom first because it closes the earliest, and if you go in the morning, go to safari first, because they feed the animals, so you're more likely to see some. I saw like every animal in November when I went first thing.
