Any guests arriving November 1 to 30 receive FP+ testing invites?

[JaneSparrow]

Did anyone here buy their tickets through Orbitz due to the Ebates 10% rebate? I am wondering if the will call confirmation number can be used to link tickets in MDE. I had my mind set that I won't be able to do that but can't hurt to ask. Thanks!

Finally able to customise bands today for our Nov. 30 check in at POFQ. Hopefully will be able to do pp+ on Tuesday when it's our 60 day mark

Arriving Nov 1st......was able to select Fastpass+ two days ago! Then this morning got invite on the site to customize our bands!! Woot woot!! Still trying for BOG res but THRILLED just the same!!!

11/29 BLT studio with 5 people, my youngest is one that's why 5 were allowed. Then 11/30 to 12/7 with 9 of us at BLT 2BR. I logged on this morning and the personalize magic band button is now available. What came as a surprise is there are 2 lines where I can customize our magic bands. 1 for each reservation so does that mean that the 5 of us will get 2 sets of magic bands for this trip? Just to be clear, I am not complaining. Just wondering if that is how it works.

I wish there is a purple magic band - some early photos showed purple :-(

I have a day (a Wednesday oddly) that is now blocked out as well. Not sure why it would become blocked. My FP+'s still show in my reservations so hopefully all is o.k.

We were going to hit the poly wed to watch wishes to since we have Ohana that night

We are traveling November 22-29 and have PAP vouchers that we haven't redeemed for actual passes yet. Can we link the vouchers via my Disney experience and set up FP+/bands

Yes!

If so, does the iPhone app work to scan in the vouchers as it does tickets, or do I have to manually enter the voucher ID somehow?

Yes again

I did try entering the number manually but it wouldn't have any of it, I've since seen a few others saying it either works or doesn't work so something a bit flaky about it.

When I scanned the bar code though it worked a treat

HTH

Edit: Note that I bought my PAP's online and so got an email confirmation with barcode, not the little plastic voucher things you get in the mail.

The benefit is the same as with a ride, you get to skip the line. Meet & Greets (especially those for the princesses) can have really long lines. As for the shows, at Fantasmic! they have a special section for FP+ holders. For the parades, Wishes and Illuminations they have special sections roped off for FP+ holders. The other benefit is you don't have to stake out your spot super early.

Is FP+ seating the same as the seating you receive with the dining package? Do you recommend using your 3 FP+ for parades, fireworks and character meet & greets? We'll be in parks Nov 11-17.

We still can't customize our bands yet for Nov 30th at WL.

You have to be at 60 days or less. So for Nov 30 it should either be Sept 30 or Oct 1.

There have been several people reporting that they have been able to customize their MB's with check in dates of Nov 30th. That is what I'm waiting "impatiently" for.

I still need to buy my tickets before I can add fp+ on our 60 day mark, which I think is Oct 1st, since we are at day 65 right now.

I was able to customize the bands for my sister at 63 days out. Today (61 days), I can still customize for her. I am wondering if she can because she is connected to both mine and our parents which were at 60 days on Tuesday, when they opened up November.

 

[scottishvixen]

I was able to customize this morning at 65 days out

 

[JaneSparrow]

I have 2 reservations 11/29 and 11/30, 64 and 65 days out respectively. I was able to personalize our magic bands this morning. See my previous post this morning for details.

The only thing I would add is I used Google Chrome instead of Internet Evplorer.

We are at 43 days till check-in and still not able to get MBs. FPP is available to us & I've done that but I'm wondering why we can't customize our MBs

 

[BuzzBelleMom]

Got access to customize MB's yesterday at 62 days and today we have access to FP+, but not for the entire stay.

Interestingly, we were offered Mickey's M&G, but not Ariel's. Am going to play with it more this weekend, will update.

We are 38 days out and I still don't have a link to customize the bands. I made all of our FP+ selections last night after playing with it for several hours. I was so hoping when I logged in today it would tell me we could customize now but no such luck. I have read that sometimes you have to do online check in to get the bands link? I really didn't want to do that because it only shows two of the rooms of our split stay when we have two rooms booked on each stay. I don't want to have online check in for just some of the rooms. We have never done it before so by doing it will it cancel out the room requests we have already made when we booked? I'm getting a bit worried now since I see so many who are arriving way after us are already customizing.

I never do online check in either BUT we ck in to pofq in 42 days and I didn't have a band. I went in dud the online check in and went directly back to the MB. And the option was immediately there. I did both of my split stats and got 2 sts of bands. Go for it check in online.

Thanks. I'll go try it. Did all of your rooms show up for the online check in? When I go there only one room for each stay is showing.

Have you done the online check in? I couldn't get the MBs until I did that. Try it if you haven't already.

 

[SMorgan711]

For those who can't customize their MBs - did you do online check in? If so, try modifying the online check in. That helped for me. I had previously done online check in before the "switch was flipped" I could make my FP+ selctions Tuesday night but could not do MBs. I went in Wed, modified my check in and then "Manage MB" changed to "Personalize MB"

DisneyFreaks- our room requests were wiped out. I just called Disney to have them added back on, no problem! good luck!
