Booking FP+ for a large group

[TTFNTigger]

We have 15 in our group. Will I be able to book all of us at one time for some rides/experiences? There are a few things we want to do together even if we all don't fit in the same "car." We are all linked together on MDE. Just don't know if there is a limit on how many people you can book for at one time.

Thanks!

I have tried booking 8-10 people at a time and didn't have any trouble with selecting people. BUT, I didn't have much success with actually finding ride times for that big of a group. I often had to break everybody in to smaller groups. So, be prepared to be creative in your searches. For The Mine Train, I had to make 8 different reservations to make that work in July at the 60 day mark. In July I had had to break up our some of our other ride experiences too - that was for a party of 10.

Obviously you will have better luck at the 60 day mark. The closer you get to your trip, I found that the evening slots filled up quickly, and I had trouble even getting the whole group on Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean. Toy Story and Peter Pan are always a challenge.

Good Luck!

We have 16 in our group some days (14 who need FP+). For the smaller rides I was easily able to get the same time for everyone. For things like Toy Story Mania we ended up with overlapping FP+ times. We all ended up with a 45 minute window when all of us can go, but some people are 10:00 - 11:00, some are 10:05 - 11:05, and some are 10:15 to 11:15 for instance.

For 7 dwarves, I was able to get the additional people (only 4 more) as overlapping out times (my family was able to do 60 out, I didn't have tickets for everyone else until 35 days out).

We were able to get everything we wanted, other then Anna and Elsa for the whole group, but some of the times had to overlap rather then having the exact same FP+ for everything.

Ok, so as long as everyone is linked to my MDE I will be able to make FP+ for everyone even if I have to separate the group some! Good info o know! Thanks!

The last time we were able to take a Disney vacation, they were only testing the FP+ system. Since this is or first time using the new system, and we are having a Magical Gathering (are they still called that anymore?), we are trying to figure out how to manage the FPs before our 60 day mark next week. Thanks for this valuable information because we would be sweating it out trying to get a group of 11 booked for a ride. The DB is the best!
