Is there a trick to getting FP for Anna and Elsa? Our window just opened and every day I choose the FP option is grayed out. I have tried just selecting for 2 in our group, but no luck that way either. I would appreciate any help!
 
Try selecting only one person and then copying the FP to the rest of your party,
 
I just went on to check for my sisters trip in May and it's not even listed and so I looked for mine on April 30 and it isn't even listed. I was wondering the same thing. It's not even there as greyed out so does that mean they are out of fps? Strange.

Are you selecting new fastpasses, or changing current ones? If you are changing current ones, I don't think the system shows experiences that have non FP+ available.
 

The A & E are the hardest FP+ to get at the moment. It's not unusual to find it unavailable for your date (sadly.) Disney does (supposedly) hold some passes back, and people's plans do change, so keep checking back at different times throughout the day. And you may have to also check the day of your visit (early!) because they do release more the day of for some same day guests.

You will also need to try to find availability for one person and then attempt to copy that to each person in your party. Even finding a space for 2 people can be very challenging.

Also, you may want to use a home computer to search because a lot of people have said they have had trouble with booking through the MDE phone app. That's where I have heard A & E not even showing up. They should at least show up, but if there are no FP+ available for that date, the attraction will be greyed out and it will say 'Standby Only.'

If A & E are a priority to you and you don't have a FP+, you really need to consider rope drop and PFTH your #1 priority.
 
I sat in front of my laptop for several evenings, refreshing over and over till I was able to snag one that opened up for me. I then was able to copy it over to my daughter so we're both able to go! I saw passes open up at about 10pm ET two days in a row.

Yep changing experiences so that makes sense. thanks
 
Can I ask how you copy the fp for the rest of the party? I have got a fp for myself but can't get one for my dd.
Thanks :-)

When you go back into the reservation it'll ask you if you want to copy it :)
 
Thanks - unfortunately when I try to copy it - it replaces it with enchanting tales with belle! Obviously I'm just too late on this one - will have to keep looking. She's only 3 so too young to go without me :-(
 
Thanks - been on the laptop & no difference :-( Now to decide what to do with my 1 fast pass when the person who wants to go can't go on her own!

If it were me, I might try calling WDW and explaining your situation. If you only need one other FP+ so that you and your DD can go in together, they might be able to work some magic with you and be able to copy the FP for you. It's not a guarantee, but if you talk to the right person, and convey your upset enough (if you know what I mean) you may be able to get somewhere.

I had an issue a few months ago with a MK restaurant, and while in the park not a single CM was able to help me with my situation, but I was able to speak to a manager via the phone (I kept asking for a supervisor until I got someone who could help) and I ended up receiving 3 additional FPs for each member in my family and a $25 Disney gift card for the upset caused to us. It's worth a try.

What days will you be there? I will be releasing A&E FPs that I don't need. If your window just opened, there is a decent chance our dates may overlap. I can PM you to try to work out a way for you to grab them.
 
I was able to just get one fp as well. I got all excited and thought that all that refreshing (8 days now), was finally paying off. Sadly, no. Guess I will keep trying.
 
I did mine exactly 60 days out. A and E was showing as standby only. So...I put my 4yo in an FP experience with us that she can't ride (like SM) then modified in this way:

I changed HER time only for Space.

I then modified ONLY HER experience...A and E THEN did pop up :) so I changed that. It showed LOTS of times, btw. This was for June 2.

Then I copied her FP+ to our other 4yo (friend's daughter, they are traveling w us).

Now both 4yo girls hold FP+ for A and E without adults holding one. Not sure why adults need FP to meet the characters? I get the rides but meet and greets, no, unless they are meeting and taking time for photo op.

Having said this...this is exactly what I have on MDE right now.

I don't know how this worked or why, but it did.

Am I wrong in thinking that you will HAVE to have a FP as an adult taking a child?
 
Do you think they will force this issue? If so, I will copy mine from Space from theirs but not until they tell me I have to.

The system let me. That's not my issue. Are they going to turn the kids away who DO have one? I guess that is the issue, right? That won't happen but if it does, I will be prepared to copy over. Fine.
 
Honestly, I think they will expect you to have 2 FP+ for the two guests wanting to enter the line. I don't know if they'll deny you entrance. That would probably depend on the CM, but I think they could. I wouldn't want to risk it if it's a very big deal for your dd. I'm not sure the app keeps track of the ages of the guest. Just a count of how many members of your party.
