E&a fp+ bs

[jsh1975]

Excuse the language but I log on at midnight to do my FP+ and every day of our vacation is booked solid with standby available. Come on.

How many people are you trying to get FP+ for? People have had better luck booking in pairs. Or booking one and copying the FP+ to other family members.

Thanks let me try. Was going to do 4.

Can I just book the 2 kids only? I do not care to meet them then I can use mine on Space Mountain or something. If that does not work could we go straight there at RD and avoid the crowd? The from there for to mine train assuming it will be open?

As long as the kids are both over 7, yes.

All 2s are booked as well. This is exactly what I thought would happen. All the people with an arrival date prior to mine with overlapping days have taken all the FP+. They should make it 60 days from today not the arrival date.

This is a screwed up system. You cant select your time you only get what they suggest?

I guess it shouldn't be surprising since I can't imagine they can't give many FP for a M&G. I noticed a lot of days we are there they are out of FP for Cinderella and Rapunzel too. I imagine those getting them at 30 days won't even have a shot at FP.

Sorry you weren't able to snag one.

I'm not sure what you mean but you get their suggested times to start and then you can change them but you still only get what's available and doesn't interfere with your other FP times.

Did you try trying to select only one person from your party? I had this same problem and called tech help to see what I could do. They said there definitely was a glitch, and to try that method. Go to FP+, select yourself only, make reservation and then copy it over to whoever else in your party you want. I did this and it worked-I wasn't able to copy it over to all 8 guests in my party but was able to for 4.

We are AP's so I can only book 30 days out and I have to log in every day to pick the next days fast passes. I cannot do our whole trip at once. I was able to get A and E for the last Sunday in April. As PP mentioned, You just have to start by booking just one person than copy to the others individually. DH's time ended up not being overlapped with the rest of is but he is ok waiting outside.

Good luck

They really should fix that glitch. Not only because its annoying but, my family is now taking up 4 separate time slots when in reality we will all enter together and only take up 5 minutes. Not 20. I feel a little guilty but, as of now there isn't any other way.

You can get times for 1 person at the time even within 30 days. Get times as close as you can for each member of you party and then check frequently to change them one at the time to better times. Availability changes often, it can be different an hour or 20 minutes from now. It seems to me they are releasing new times gradually, and only allowing small parties 1-2 people even at 60 days out. I read posts from people who were trying to schedule A&E at 60+10 days and also could only schedule 1 person at the time (there was no availablity for larger groups).

I'm sure they have an assumption for that built into the system. They have a lot of experience with meet & greet fastpasses to draw upon.

They offer what is available.

I agree. It is ironic that they created a system that is supposed to make things easier by allowing people to book 60 days in advance, and almost immediately they concluded that this wasn't really easy enough, so they added the "+10". It would be far more fair to keep it at 60 days out. If having to log on 6 days in a row to pick your FPs for a 6 day trip is too difficult or inconvenient, then what does that say about the whole system?

 

[jsh1975]

I cant do 1 person at a time because kids are under 7.

 

[jsh1975]

I was hoping to avoid the MK on Saturday but if we go and my kids do not get to meet E&A they will be crushed. You would think Darth Vader would be enough.

 

[jsh1975]

How do you move them over to other people in party?

Your kids must both be over 7. Also, you cannot enter the line and wait with them if you don't have an FP+ reservation for them. So you won't be able to go in with the kids to meet Anna and Elsa.
