Barf. I have a FP+ park hopping Q.

[RSWA2]

The iOS version of the MDE app has been updated a few times now since it's come out. I expect that it would be updated in the near future so that you wouldn't have to go to a kiosk to book the 4th pass, whether at the park or not.

Could you tell us about your experience with the kiosks? How were the lines, were there cms there helping, etc?

we were there 3rd week of june and kiosk lines were generally pretty short and there were CM's; the longest kiosk line was in frontierland in MK. The kiosk by ToT shop was kinda crazy until a quick rain shower drove everyone into the shops-put the poncho on and got a FP booked right away (and the kiosk is under cover too lol).

Our experience with the kiosks was the same. We didn't have long waits for most of them. The one by Buzz was the worst for us. We probably waited 5-10 minutes for that. Everything else was under five minutes, and lots of them were walk-up.

We did have issue with the kiosks doing wacky things, like separating our party into smaller groups, so that we had to book multiple reservations. It reset every morning, so it wasn't a huge problem, but it was definitely annoying.

If they get the 4th FP up and running on the app, it will be a huge improvement. I do expect availability will decrease, as making FPs easier to get means more people will get them. But it would be nice to have an FP reserved for an evening park before hopping and just crossing your fingers that you'll get something.

I'm generally not a park-hopping guy, but some people have recommended using your "initial three" FP at the second park of the day. Basically, hit RD at your first park of the day, doing as much as you can stand-by. After your afternoon break, you'll still have some prime FPs in your pocket (er... wrist) at your second park.

I was considering doing this ... but the post/data from famy27 has me rethinking.

which approach would be better during a busy Spring Break week for a family that is able to make EMH and RD every day?

Also, I'm still scanning the boards for more info on FP+, but if anyone could point me to a detailed thread, I would be so grateful!

thanking in advance!
