I want to plan a surprise for DH bday in September for a quick weekend getaway.

We have another trip in August that he knows about. He never checks his MDE account except I know he will be on it when we are there in August.

I am wondering how I can get fp at 60 days out for September trip without him knowing.

Some have suggested creating a new profile with a different email address and recreating my family in MDE as another user. I can see where this would totally work to hide a linked resort reservation or make dining plans without him seeing them on his MDW account. However, I can't figure out the fastpass and ticket option since our APs are linked to our normal accounts and need to be functioning there properly in August.

If I can't have the AP listed on both accounts at the moment (seems logical it wouldn't let me do this) but I link my resort reservation and the dining to the new surprise MDE account, would I be able to at least transfer over the APs to the new account after our August trip and just make fp+ later than I wanted? If I do this, will he get an email saying that his AP has been removed from MDE?

Trying to surprise him as he says he is the only one in the family who has never been to WDW on his bday! Really hoped to keep it a surprise up until the last minute but not sure I am going to be able to do it.

Any advice??? TIA.
 
Do you both have MDE accounts already?

One way to do this is to link the reservation to your own account only, and define him as a family member, and link the tickets to both of you in your own account only. for this to work, you must not have already send an invitation to him to be a participant from his own account. If he accepts that invitation, then as soon as you link the ticket to him in your MDE account, it DISAPPEARS and appears in his account! (I know, because this is how my wife and I are set up and I linked all our tickets).

If you try to set up a brand new MDE account, you need to use an email address never used before with any Disney account including MDE.
