I tend to stay off the Disboards when I don't have a trip planned (being on here makes me want to go way more often than what will work with my budget lol), so I'm a bit behind on new things at WDW.
For instance, the last time we went we were part of FP+ testing and really liked it, but I keep seeing posts about needing to grab your FP+ reservations as close to midnight of the day your reservation window opens (when we tested they didn't even have it open for all WDW Resort guests, so changes were easily available if needed). How critical is that? We're going mid-November, and really want to do the new Mine train (plus some older faves like BTMR, Space Mountain, TSM, RnRC, Test Track and a couple of others) and we're part of a YES group (so I have no control over when the YES tickets are ordered or delivered), so I can't be sure we'll have them at that midnight release. Since that's normally a slower week, is it possible/likely we'll be able to get the FP+ we want?
I also need to look up Memory Maker (they were doing PhotoPass+ - I think that was what they called it anyway - testing when we were there that gave us the regular PP stuff plus the ride photos; is MM pretty much the same thing only renamed?).
And if anyone has any other tips/info about things that have changed since 2013 I'd love to here them. TIA!
