Any OCTOBER guests received FP+ testing invite?

[MC0810]

we are doing the magic bands for our 3 night trip at POP in Oct 9-12.

I have a question though.

My mom and dad are going to book 2 nights at Pop and buying a 1 day park ticket so they can go to Magic Kingdom with us. They are waiting for the FL resident discount to come out..probably next week.

Would they be getting the magic bands too? If not..how do we plan our day with them if they are not going to be getting magic bands and FP+??

Our magic bands will arrive today. I've already done some initial + selections and was able to get Illuminations on a Sunday. No other days (all weekdays) had fireworks/parades/etc. available.

Brown shipping box, nothing says Disney on the outside. They are shipped out of Memphis, TN. Inside will be the MagicBands in box with Mrs. Incredible on it.

I found it pretty hilarious because I live In Memphis-- mine shipped from here, went all the way to Louisville, KY, and then came back to Memphis, all in the span of a day.

Checked 9/4 & 9/5 said website said my magic bands were getting ready to ship. Received an e-mail at 4:18 this morning saying they were shipped. Went home at lunch and the box was on my porch. That is fast service!

Once your parents book, they will have access to customize the magic bands. If there is time to ship, they will do that. If not, they should be picked up at the resort.

Once they add their tickets, they should be able to make FP+ selections. You will be able to copy your FP+ selections to their profiles if you are linked on MDX.

I had mine shipped to my work address.

We own a business so that wouldnt work for me. Theres less chance of him seeing it at home.

No parades or fireworks for October yet. And i'm 22 days out.

Thanks for the info. Maybe they are going to test NOT doing FP+ for Wishes etc. during October. Bummer!

I wonder if it's because of MNSSHP taking up several days a week? That would cover MK, but have no idea about the others.

Your bands will go to the address you have on file in MDE.

You need to confirm the shipping address on the order screen, and can change it from the default address shown. MagicBands for those outside of the US will be shipped to the resort for pickup at check-in.

Anyone going in October have any luck getting FP+ for Fantasmic? I keep checking and checking but it never available. I haven't seen any parades or fireworks.

I found parade through the plans link in iphone app (where is that on website?) but it when you click parade fp+ it shows not available yet...it just made me feel better to see it in there, though

Nothing for me, only Illuminations. I did notice yesterday that they added princess meet and greets at MK for me. Hopefully more will be added on as we get closer to October.

I did that and it still tells me that I need to customize my bands and that I only have 4 days to do it. I thought I was finished, how to I get them to ship?

They will ship after the 4 days.

Thanks. I just checked and I see the princess meets. Fingers crossed that they start showing up.

Was checking out our reservation last week and notice we got the invite for magic bans also. Got them all customized and I've currently been playing with the Fastpass+ selections. Wonder if they will ever up it to 4.
