Annnnnnd, save! Adding this thread to my favorite Disney folder. Now the story of the grandma who lost her swimsuit on a TL slide won't be all alone in there.

This is correct. It has to do with booking the onsite stay and your park tickets as a package. We stayed offsite first, then onsite, but our FP+ window opened up to include our offsite stay too. That was because we had a room only reservation and purchased tickets separately. It has nothing to...

Two peas in a pod here! My son is 10 now, but his favorite between the two parks has been EPCOT from his first trip as a 5 year old. He loves traveling and is begging to see the world already. He likes MK fine, but he sees it as too tame and his words, "girly and kinda babyish." But his top...

Good to know, thank you!

And I forgot to mention. Our onsite stay is 6 days, our offsite stay is 7 days. Based on the logic that I've bolded, our FP+ calendar should have only allowed us to book a 10 day window, which is not what happened.

I guess I would assume it was the same *length of stay, up to 10 day* rule that applied to ADRs also.

This ^ Yes! That "+1" is the day you check out. Our onsite stay is a check-in on the 9th, and we check out on the 15th. I could only book my fastpasses up to the 15th.

Which is why I posted it under the throwaway room thread. If someone is staying onsite for more than a day (ie, 10 days), then I would not call that a throwaway room, I'd call it a split stay and not intended for this thread. The 60 + 10 day rule means that you can book 60 days FROM your check...

Something odd happened down at the OK Corral last night, or best known as the infamous fastpass+ system. We are doing a split stay, with our offsite stay being the first week, and our onsite stay being the second week. We did this (offsite 1st, onsite 2nd) without thinking about the implications...

Same here! Our window opened last night (west coast), but Space was unavailable the second week in May. It said all the fastpasses were already gone for that day. I'm not liking the prospects here...

If still available, looking for 2 studios at Boardwalk, May 15th one night. Probably a long shot that any are left, but thought I'd try. Thank you!

Not understanding the shock face for the OP's question? Except the OP's on site stay comes AFTER the off site stay (offsite/onsite). Which is why the question is being asked. Every thread I read references an onsite stay preceding an offsite stay and using your park tickets in a row.

If she doesn't stay at Aulani though, she may want to park at the shopping center across the street and walk over since the Aulani parking garage charges to park there.

Why wouldn't you qualify for 30 day reservations? Onsite gets 60 days, but offsite still gets 30 days out.

Do you tell the system you also have an offsite stay before your onsite stay? Because I can't imagine it could figure it out if you don't. Especially if you are staying onsite for 7 days and have a 7 day ticket. It will think you are going to a park every single day of your onsite stay because...

Hawaii Fall Break this year was 10/6-10/10. So if their fall break in 2015 is the same week as this year, it would be 10/5-10/9. If you go 10/11-10/15, you will pick the week I wish we had picked. You will miss the local fall breaker crowds from the moment you check in until check out. The...

Very true! I didn't realize that Hawaii was on Fall Break that week until 2 days before we left, so we hadn't prepared for that. Since it's considered adventure season for points, we thought it'd be empty :( I think it would have helped if we had done a little more research. I mean we always...

We just got home last night from Aulani. We arrived on 10/9 and it was busy busy! Saturday night there was not one parking spot available in the self park garage after we came back from sightseeing. People parked there to attend the Luau down the street! We complained to a CM that there was not...

I don't do twitter, I don't have a Facebook, and I don't even have a smartphone (gasp)! It's like I'm in the stone age over here. When we're at the pool or the lagoon, what should I be yelling to find you? I so want to thank you for putting this together here. It has been invaluable when we...

Will we see you there? We'll be in Maui on the 4th, and transfer to Aulani on Thursday the 9th.
