Anyone in December getting FP+ and MB

[erionm]

Does anyone know since the MB's are being sent UPS at this time if they have to be signed for? I'm going out of town for the weekend starting the day my personalization ends.

I'm not sure how quickly they show up either but if they might show up while I'm gone I might change the mailing address to my mom's house.

Signature not required. They are shipped UPS Next Day Air once the customization date has past.

Yes, for now, split says have 2 sets. I just customize our second set this week. What I am not sure if is if they are interchangeable or you have to wear the first set at the first hotel and the second set at the second hotel?

It's my understanding that they are interchangeable.

Silly question... But how do I know if I can customize?

It was the 3rd choice I could see under the Here's Where to Start column after I logged into MDE.

Am waiting with interest to see if anyone checking in Dec 21st onwards is offered MB/FP+ as I read there was a rumour that Disney were going to suspend the trial over the busy Christmas/New Year period
I guess maybe we'll know by the end of next week?

I check in December 22 and got mine last night!

It will say Personalize Magic Bands instead of Manage Magic Bands. But I can't remember if it says that before you confirm your shipping address.

I spoke to a cm on the phone last night when I added my 2 additional days for park passes. She said that we can choose 3 fp+ per person per day but that we can add more when we get there....not so sure I beleive this one! Has anyone else heard that? She wasn't referring to using a kttw card as bonus fastpasses...she said you'd add them to your band.

We're considering switching to Coronado Springs....we already got magic bands....if CS doesn't get bands, will I then lose them if we switch?

Hey Kristibo42, just go to the mydisneyreservation.com site. Check in online there and then when you go back to MDE you should be able to customise MB's.

Thank You!! That worked. 2 or the 3 rooms are set.

I have our MB done. Hopefully my TA doesn't get mad that I did the on-line check in.

Yay. Glad you got them done.

By the end of October, all Disney resorts are magicband-eligible, so you should be fine!

How long does it take for the bands to come and how are they shipped?

We check in Dec 28. I can now customize and also now saw an option to add FP+ to my day/s. I click on add FP+, it has me select the guests in my party off of my family/friends list, but then when it takes me to the screen to choose a park they all say not available.

Will these open up at 60 days? Are all Dec dates open for FP+ or just those within 60 days?

Pretty sure its just 60 days.

It will say "Personalize" instead of "Manage" in MDE for the MagicBands.

Has anyone seen FP+ for Wishes or MSE parade offered in early December?

So far they haven't opened it up for November guests yet, either. I really hope they continue the fp+ for Wishes. It is one of the only fp+'s I really want.

Anyone know where the FP+ area is for Illuminations ? I took one for Dec 7th but really didn't look to see where it was located. Thinking now there may be more than one location.
