Are FP reservations 60 or 30 days in advance?

[Mich Mouse]

I was sure that it was 60 days but when I check MDE it will only allow me to make selections 30 days out. I have an AP already attached, we were there in February and everything worked beautifully.

When should I be able to select FP plus reservations?

60 days for onsite guests.
30 days for offsite guests.

I believe AP holders can book at 60 days if they have a resort reservation attached to their MDE, otherwise it is 30 days out.

 

[Mich Mouse]

Thank you for your response. I have two reservations attached to my MDE but it's still only allowing me to make reservations at the 30 day mark.

Are you 60 days out now? If so and it's not registered, give Disney a call. If you've not reached your 60 day mark yet, don't worry, it should open up at midnight 60 days out

 

[Mich Mouse]

Thank you, just called and we are 61 days out. I miscalculated. I was confused though because it was letting me make reservations 30 days out but they said that's because I have an AP.

my 60 day window opens tomorrow too! (actually tonight at 11pm central time, but who's counting)!

Glad you figured it out!

I made the same mistake. We check in 8/14 and thought today was
60 days out. I was never good at math!

Remember that this starts at midnight eastern rather than in the morning like ADRs.

July has 31 days so you can't just go by 2 months.

Should I really wait up for midnight? What is going to be gone immediately?
Half my group hasn't even purchased tickets yet. Will I be able to copy my selections for them later? I know this was possible on our last trip in August.

I am so glad to be west coast for FP+. Booking at 9pm will be no problem. I figure I deserve the break after staying awake until 4:30am to book my dining.

Is it 60 days on a day by day basis? So for my 11 day trip I will need to log in 11 nights in a row? Or is it the 60 days + 10 day length of stay? Either way I'm good, but want to put reminders on my calendar as appropriate.

I found that as soon as day 60 hit, my whole week opened up for FP selection.

I'm also wondering- at midnight- what FPs are likely to be gone? Anyone ever get on at midnight and find that FPs for the new mine train is gone?

Also-I know 2yos do not need FPs....do they allow you to book an FP for a 2yo?

They only allow you to book fp for those with tickets, so I guess if you buy your 2 year old a ticket you could....

I booked my fp last night. I have a split stay with offsite first and AoA at the end. My 60 day opened for the end of my stay and I was able to book for my whole trip. The first day of my trip I was able to get 7dmt, electric parade and Anna and Elsa, even though it was like day 54. Does that make sense? I was very happy with the whole process because I was able to get everything I wanted at the times I wanted.

Mine Train has a lot of capacity, you don't have to worry. For the heck of it, I just tried 30 days, July 15, and both Mine Train and Anna & Elsa were available.

You won't have trouble getting anything at midnight.

Anna and Elsa might last a few days, Mine Train a few weeks for the daytime fps especiallly if it's a busy time.
