Caribbean Beach FAQ part VI

[julieb5]

We check in the same day! So excited... we didn't have a summer vacation since we have 11 days in Disney (one reason we love homeschooling!)

How fun!!! We are surprising the kids this time and telling them once we get to the airport. We can hardly wait. We didn't have a summer trip either due to this surprise trip. I'm busting at the seams want to tell them. I think the last 2 weeks of this secret are going to be harder than the last 9 months.

Received our DME tags today!! 34 days till we are at CBR for the 1st time. Getting excited....

 

[kellyjeanie]

Staying at CBR in 45 days - was able to customize MB and book FP+! I'm so excited!!

I logged in to MDE today and was able to pick FP+ and customize Magic Bands today for our Oct 19 trip! So it looks like either CBR will be a testing resort, or they are finally rolling it out to everyone...

I will be at CBR on Sunday for the first time! I can't wait!!

 

[workinmom]

Has anyone else noticed they have Fast pass+ and magic bands available for their Oct trip? I do! I really haven't read much about this b/c I thought CBR wasn't part of the test. Or was I wrong FP+ is avail to everyone it's just the Magic Bands that are the test? We have a split stay with room only ressies first till FD starts. Now I have to spend more time on the DIS to read what I have missed!

 

[workinmom]

Looks like I'm not the only one!!

 

[Mommiesblessings2]

I can do FP+, but when I click on MB nothing happens?,?

Please tell me what to click. Is it possible I can only get FP+?

WOOO HOOOO

I had to go modify my online check-in, basically just go through the check-in without changing anything, complete that then log out and log back in, MB was there for me then.

I was able to get MB's and reserve FP+ for all the days of our CBR stay (October 23-28). I just figured it was because our first night is at POP. We are coming in late on the 22nd of October, and are staying at POP the first night because it was cheap with the discount . Then we move over to CBR.
SO I cant really say the CBR is testing or not. POP is, and only when we booked POP, we were able to get MB's.
You will not be able to book FP+ unless you have park tickets attached to your reservation. I purchased our tickets through the Disney website, and choose will call pick-up. I was able to use the will call confirmation number to attach the tickets to our reservation. Then was able to book FP+ .

Hopefully CBR will be included in the test for you guys !

Your split stay may be why you are able to get MB's. What other WDW resort are you staying at ?

CBR has opened up, at least for the latter half of the month. I'm only staying at CBR, checking in 10/27, and was able to customize/pick FP+ today.

 

[Mommiesblessings2]

Just did it! Not lovin the FP+ though. I didn't realize they give you the timeframe. A few aren't realistic to reach within the time. I have them and if it works out great!


Tried to get in to BOG for lunch but the entire week has NO FPs.

I am more excited about the MB!!!!

My check in date is 10/25.

You should be able to modify them.

[mstout]
