Booking time for FP+ changing

[steve_rob]

You may already be aware of this as it's on a number of blogs, plus the main forum on here, but I thought I'd post it on the UK board as it affects us positively.

The FP+ booking window now opens at 7am Eastern time, rather than midnight as previously. This of course means it's now midday UK time instead of 5am, so no more early mornings trying to get 7DMT!

I just saw this on the fast pass thread & was trying to work out how to copy it! Much easier for us over here I think (now I just need to work out my 60 days so I can make sure I have an office day!)

Ooh, thanks for posting. I didn't know it had changed

Is this effective now?

Confirmed that this started as of today.

I am sort of pleased with this. I was all prepared to get up at 5am (along with DH who is up at 430am anyway) but now it's 12pm and I'm at work with only a 15 min window to make my FP'S.

Can I just make the ones I want then add the 2nd and 3rd later or do I have to make 3 at a time?
Can you make them on your phone? I had issues making my ADR + 10 on my phone using the app. The Disney website worked if I logged in via that but not the app.

Is it also still the same that you can book FP for your full duration from check in day?

Thanks

Yep, you can just do one at a time now

FP+ has been greatly improved on the App, personally, I'd still have the website on standby

Yep, you can book your full stay at 60 days, making some FPs easier to get later in your stay

Hi

Maybe I'm a bit of a saddo but I quite liked getting up early with coffee and booking them at 5 - 6 am and my children telling me what a hero I was for getting the good FP+ when they woke later

Arh well, sat at the office midday doesn't have the same feeling to it

Regards

Paul

5am worked great for me (up at 5.15 anyway!) and typically they change it just a couple of days before my window opens!

Oh well!
