Dumb Question. new passholder here. Where and how do I see/find out Good to Go Days? I don't see any in the calendar.

Currently, if you are entering a WDW park using an AP, you will need a park reservation for your first park of the day, every day. It doesn't matter if you're onsite or not. There are a few exceptions, like if Disney declares a good-to-go day (usually because of lower crowds expected that day. You also can enter the parks after 2PM without a park res, except (I believe), MK on weekends. If you are staying onsite, you can make park reservations for the length of your stay, including check-in and check-out days.

You can, but I have to call every single time because it does not recognize it for some reason. It will only allow me to reserve 5 days. Then I have to call, they say they've been having problems with this and IT is working on it; they book my other days and nothing ever gets fixed. It's definitely frustrating.

You go to the AP Availability Calendar. It is clearly marked when a day is Good to Go. If you don't see any it is because there is none at this time. Note I've never seen them far in advance, more like within 30 days or less.

Go to the Annual Passholder Admission Calendar and you can see what park days are available to reserve and which are good-to-go days. Right now, I'm not seeing any good-to-go days.

If you have an on-site hotel reservation, go to the Plans & Tickets page, where you can see all your reservations. Near the top of the page is a link to Park Reservations. Click Make a Reservation and on the next screen you'll see Make or Modify Them Park Reservations. Then you'll have yet another screen(!) and a choice of either Guests with Tickets or Guests with Tickets and a Hotel Reservation (by this, they mean an on-site Disney hotel reservation). Click that and you'll see what's available.

If your travel dates are far in advance, you won't see good-to-go days, since they aren't posted that far in advance.

I've had trips where there were zero good-to-go days posted when I made my park reservations and after I got there, there were several good-to-go days.

If you do have an on-site stay reserved, you can make your park reservations right now, even if your trip isn't until, say, December.
