Is Das same as Lightning Lane?

Disney World's DAS system works on all rides at the theme parks including those without a Lightning Lane and the Individual Lightning Lane attractions. For attractions that do not have Lightning Lane, just simply ask a cast member and they will typically direct you to enter through the exit of an attraction.

Instead of waiting in line, the guest and their party use the DAS pass to schedule a return time to ride attractions. The guest may use the Lightning Lane entrance (the old FASTPASS Return entrance), the ride's exit or an alternate line, depending on the ride.
