Able to choose fast passes earlier than 7 am

Maybe that’s why, we have a short trip this Saturday until Tuesday. If that’s the case, I could have booked even earlier? I’m confused!

That’s why. You have a rolling 60-day window already in effect due to this stay.

And that rolling window effectively gave you a 61 day window. You could have booked your FPs yesterday.

I do not think it does say you have to do the math in your head

I use Excel. Arrival Day - @Today and format the cell as a number and it will give you a countdown and the actual date when your window opens. I do it for Dining and FP+.

Thanks everyone, I think I get it. So basically, the most anyone could ever get would be 61 days, with stays within two months of each other? And it has nothing to do with the annual pass, right?

Correct. It’s the rolling booking window from Stay#1 that rolls into the window for Stay#2 opening it up 1 day early.

Right! AP's just give you a 30 day window at any time without reservations if it is active because you have a ticket linked to your account that is good.

I got the Touring Plans notification, but prior to that I had googled “60 days before September 3rd” and got my date.

That works fine, as does Siri if you have an iOS device.

Got it, that makes sense. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to afford trips every 2 months to get that 61 day window?

I was able to book the night before my FP window should have opened one trip last year. I believe there are sometimes glitches.

Sorry if I’m being stupid but where on the MDE app does it say what your fast pass booking date is?

The app doesn’t, to my knowledge. But I think on a regular computer, it will tell you. I always just compute it myself.

Yes sorry, I meant computer, that is where I always check, not sure on app. You can see when you click on book fast passes and then it will tell you no, and the date.

Thanks for the tip! I always worry that I’ve done it wrong when I work it out myself! T minus 3 days till my window opens
