Any OCTOBER guests received FP+ testing invite?

[Missyrose]

For those going in late OCT, have you done online check in yet? We are at POR oct 26-nov 3... So still 64 days out, and nothing is showing up for us yet.

We're staying at Yacht Club from Oct. 20-25 and have NOT done online check-in, but we were able to make FP+ reservations this evening. No sign of MagicBand customization yet though.

Perhaps online check in isn't needed, and all you need to be is 60 or fewer days out.

Staying at CSR Oct. 20-26th so hoping we get picked for magic bands

It hasn't been so far with all the testing. That makes sense because eventually (in theory based on what Disney has said) the FP+ system will only be tied to your ticket and not your resort.

I am staying at AKL Jambo Villas (not using DVC points) from October 26 to November 3.

I have just been able to customise my MagicBand - well kind of anyway. I can not choose a colour (grey is the only colour available) but I can personalise with my name.

I can not book FP+ yet.

Very exciting

I just spoke with someone in IT about only having the gray option for MB customization. She said they are still in the process of loading all the reservation information into the system so all of the color choices are not yet available. She said ideally, we would not be able to see any options until all info is loaded but there is no way to hide it once the process has begun. She told me to give it some time and it would eventually be there. We are definitely part of the test which has been extended into October.

We are checking into AKL (Jambo - staying on points) on Oct 30th. I just logged in and was prompted to customize my MBs, but the only color offered was gray.

I am also staying at BCV (Checking in Oct 26th) and they were not showing up.

I cannot select FP+ for any date. Guess I'll keep trying!

I forgot to hit quote, but when I said that I was able to book FP+ today someone asked what resort I will be at. I'm staying at POP

 

[Deanie1]

We are staying at POR Oct 17-27 and my DD from Oct 20-31 but we have not been able to book FP+. Is everyone at POR eligible?

 

[wunkmom]

Word. We're there 10/27-11/2

Good to know that I'm not the only one moping.

Just did our FP+ selections!!! No MB yet. Checking in Oct 19th. No 4th MK FP+ and no wishes etc. Staying at Pop.

 

[ruzer28]

I was able to make FP+ selections tonight. No mb selections available yet. We're staying at AKV Jambo from Oct 4 - 13.

 

[gypsydoodlebug]

Poly, Oct. 3-10. Was able to make FP+ selections just now but no Magic Band info yet. I don't think I'm going to like it having tested it last September, but I was excited to get to use the MBs.

 

[chicagomom16]

Just logged into MDE and could finally select FP+ arriving 10/15 and staying at YC. Personalize MB was up too but similar to everyone else only grey showed up (thanks for the people following up with IT!).

 

[freckles04]

I'm able to make FP+ selections for our trip Oct 5 - 13 (POR).

No Magic Band option at all, not even a gray one!

I noticed on our MK day that the "bonus" FP was for the parade instead of POTC like previous testers.

I haven't played with it very much (just got off work & tired) but I plan to do more with it tomorrow.

 

[awalker1015]

Same as most - was able to book FP+ for our stay 10/12 at POR, but MB customization only comes up gray.

How do you get the bonus FP at MK? I didn't get that option just 3.

I don't know other than when I selected my 3 and then hit "done," my final list had the Parade added to it.
