my window opens tonight to schedule my FP. We are only staying 5 nights, and I am hoping to schedule an A&E FP for our final full day in the parks. Will it be nearly impossible, since many people will be able to sign up for that date sooner than I can? We are a party of 6 people.

Also, how much should I worry about SDMT? I know that fills up fast, but is it as bad as A&E? And TSM?

I am planning to go on right when the window opens to book these...I will either stay up or set an alarm, but I really want to know just how good or bad my chances might be!

Thanks!!
 
i had no prob with 7dmt or TSM... i couldnt get a A&E for my 60+7 days out, howeverbi joined facebook groups and the month dropping groups on here and was able to snag 2 through there. when ur window opens immediatly try from ur last day and work your way back thru the fast passes
 
I just did my FP+ this morning at midnight. I easily got A&E for the 5th and 6th day of our trip, scheduled at 2:30 and 1:10. I couldn't get them for the first day of our trip when I was booking, but at 9 this morning I could have had my pick of late evening times.

When you log on tonight, go right to your last day and pick A&E. Grab any two others, then go do the same for your other day. Once you have those two in place, go back and adjust the other attractions and times. I had no problem at all with day or times for 7D. Good luck!

I think it depends on when you go and the luck of the draw. I only had a five-day trip booked last November, and I got A&E no problem and 7DMT twice. I believe we scheduled A&E for our fourth day there; I tried for that day purposely because I figured further out would be more likely to be available.
 

I think your chances are very good. Two weeks ago when our FP+ opened at 60 days A&E was available for all three of our MK days. (Maybe it's the time of year, I don't know.)
 
You shouldn't have any trouble with anything besides A&E. It's not what I'd call impossible, it's just a tough one to get. Trying for your last day first is a good way to increase your chances. If you don't get it, just keep checking. Availability can pop up anytime! Getting 6 makes it tougher, you might want to try for fewer, then add on the others with overlapping times. Good luck!
 
Yes, do your AE day first, and last day of your trip is the best. We had no trouble for our party of 5 at midnight. There were no early times but we got one around lunch. We also went back in after we booked our whole trip and there were still plenty of options if we wanted to change times.

When we booked our FP we managed to get 7DMT, could have gotten Anna and Elsa (had no interest in them) for every MK day. We also met many people who got the Frozen ladies closer to the trip, including the same day. The trick is, keep trying! People change their plans, people cancel trips.
 
I had no problem at all getting FP+ for AE, 7dmt and even got a dinner at BOG :)I leave for disney on Saturday. good luck! Hope you get everything you want
 
There is hope! I got it last night for the 2nd day of my trip! I got 3, I will say they are all different times (with in 5 min of each other) and they over lap. That's was the only way to get three at my desired time.
