Anyone in December getting FP+ and MB

[Autumnslight]

I am not happy with the choices offered as none of things that I really wanted FP+ for are showing up. I want Enchanted Tales with Belle, Fanstamic and Wishes. That's it for a 5 day vacation as everything else I'll get there early and ride or I'll ride it next time. I really hope the open a lot more time slots as it gets closer. While I know for others FP+ for dumbo is great for me not so much.

The selections aren't all released yet. They will be though! It might not be until a few weeks beforehand, so just keep checking on occasion. Fantasmic! FP+ wasn't available for my September trip until just a couple weeks before.

Around when would it open up you think??

i don't. I'm in the same boat, waiting.

We check in to our second resort on December 3rd so have just customized our MBs I am all set for my FP+ selections as well My only question is about shipping info for international guests Currently I have just left my home address in the UK as the shipping address and the MDE site simply states if your shipping address is outside the US, you can collect your bands at the resort I am wondering if I should just put the resort address as the shipping address right now Everyone I ask including CMs gives me a different answer Anyone have experience of this situation?

I think you are safe leaving your home address as is, the system will flag and know to have your bands waiting at resort.

I did not, really disappointed in the offerings! No ETWB, No Wishes, or Parades, no Fantasmic, no Illuminations. Those are the ones I was really looking forward to.

I got a Fantasmic time.

I didn't notice ETWB since I have teens and we reallly aren't going to do that.

I keep mentioning this, but the thread is moving so fast, I'm sure most people haven't seen it!

The full list of FP+ selections is available from 12/1-12/7 only right now. From 12/8 and on, only a very limited list is available, which doesn't include fireworks, parades, shows, or attractions like Enchanted Tales with Belle. They're not "sold out" or anything like that. They just haven't been released for FP booking yet. They will be eventually though!

If it follows the timeline from my visit in late September, more selections will be released a few weeks ahead of time. So don't freak out! Just try to be patient.

Thank You for posting this!

So logged in and the popup window show about customizing bands and FP+. But selecting customize magic bands went to the regular page to link them. Selecting the FP+ option then sends me to the page with the calendar but says that the selected date must be within at least one party member's FP+

How can you make parade reservation. I saw no options

For those who find the pre-selected times limiting, you can always modify the times after you've made the initial selection. The entire day will open up with available times, unless you have something else already scheduled for that time (FP+ or dining).

Not all options are open yet. Keep checking they will eventually load everything in the system including parades.

 

[ruthma]

No problem! I hate to see people disappointed and upset when they just don't have the appropriate information available to them! I do wish Disney did a better job of explaining the process, though since it's just a "test", I guess it's all in a state of flux anyway.

I said a few pages back that I thought they wouldn't open Magic Bands and FP+ for December guests until the entire month of FP+ selections was out, because it would create exactly this kind of uproar. Looks like I was wrong, and they opened it up anyways. I'm sure they're getting slammed with not-so-nice calls about it :/

so, should we make our 3 per day selections now and then modify as the parades and fireworks are available or just wait till more options open up to make selections?

 

[jwilks56]

Anyone knows if we are going to be able to use the old FP or is this the roll out.

I can't personalize magic bands yet. But I didn't do online check-in. I thought that didn't matter? I tried to log in and log out too.

I'm thinking about switching from Pop Century to a pirate room in CBR. I didn't want to check in yet because still not sure.

I mad all 3 selections. I am going to cancel and redo when it's time.

what day did you get fantastic? It wasn't open for dec9th on mine

 

[ruthma]

I did my fast pass+ but can't get to the welcome page. Is there another way to get to it.

 

[jwilks56]

So yesterday was my 60 day mark and my MBs opened up and it said I have 28 days to customize So I am wondering if that is what the 28 days means.

For the most part, it shouldn't really matter much. If you have something available that you really want, especially if it's at a good time for you, then I'd take it now. Otherwise, you can book stuff and change it later, or just wait. I've booked stuff, just because I can't resist fiddling around with the whole system.

Anyone knows if we are going to be able to use the old FP or is this the roll out.

I don't think anyone knows for sure, outside of Disney (and maybe they don't even know yet).
