Any September guests received FP+ testing invite?

[delmar411]

And will resorts issue keys to the world cards IF a person also has a magic band?? Or are they forcing people with magic bands to use those and only those for their keys, charges, tickets etc.??

I thought I made it clear with the reply of Absolutely?

This is a repeated question in every single FP+ thread too.....

Okay so I got my shipping notice and my magic bands are active and it's out for delivery I am expecting it at my door any time now

I just got my shipping notice also. What's funny is that they shipped yesterday from Memphis, went to Louisville, KY and are now on their way back to Memphis (where I live)

Disney is spending a lot of money in shipping costs.

I've been following this thread, but not really the others on MB, so apologies if this is a question that's been asked and answered, but is there any way to link your photopass (regular not plus) cards to your MB? Or rather, simply use your MB as your photopass card so to speak?

ETA - if yes, how would this work with shares?

I know this has likely been asked ten million times, but I am not easily finding the results and am a little daunted by the many pages in this thread. Hoping someone will help me out by answering the following:

If we test FP+, are we also able to draw regular fastpasses? Will Art of Animation give us "hard tickets", or only the magic bands?

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

You will also be given KTTW cards and can indeed draw regular FP in addition to the FP+.

so I just called up and changed my resort from ASMu to Pop for my trip 09/20 - 09/29 and went on to my Disney experience and the magic band link that is usually just a pop up was available to select my MB. The only thing I wanted to point out was there was a big stop sign on the page that read today 08/20 is the last day to customize. I guess that means if you don't select today you will just get Gray? Also when I was on the phone the operator listed a number of other resorts that were participating in the MB September testing. I don't remember them all but I know there was contemporary and AKL I believe. The cast member on the phone was very helpful and gave me a bunch of info so if you have any questions give them a ring. So excited now.

I wouldn't sweat it. Sometimes people lose patience and forget that this is supposed to be a happy place. Hope your trip is magical!

I'm joining the MB party!! I was able to customize my bands Friday, woke up this morning to an email saying they would be here around 10:30am. I'm so excited I could burst & cover everyone around me in glitter & rainbows!!

i wonder what the UPS driver would think of this as he approaches my doorstep to leave the magic bands today.

 

[Cinderumbrella]

Absolutely. It is even in the cast reference guide that testers are able to pull from both pools.

I'm quoting here:

You can select up to three Fastpass+ experiences at one park per day, with valid theme park admission. During testing, if you have a key to the world card, you can also obtain Fastpass tickets from Fastpass distribution locations

I think the confusion from the newbie came from this part right here (specifically the word IF), thus the reason for the clarification that the resorts were indeed providing KTTW cards to MB users at check in.

Received email that our MagicBands shipped today via UPS!! Customized ours on Friday! Checking in Sept. 14

 

[Wicket's Mom]

It's 10:20 am, my MBs just arrived! I ordered them Saturday.

 

[DisneyMarv]

my magic bands just arrived

 

[MightyGitis]

Cracked me up. I am so glad you aren't bitter.

Yes- I am quoting myself. Laughed so hard, I cried. MightyGitis, I would love to run into you at WDW - you seem like a lot of fun.

My co workers always say I missed my calling as a stand up comedian.

And I have no bitterness. In two and a half weeks I will still be at Disney World at a gorgeous non-testing hotel. I've got free dining and some great restaurants booked. I just got the Disney Infinity game to distract me. Oddly enough it works on RFID like the bands. Lol. Wonder if someday I can link a Magic Band to the game. Lmao.
