Wahhhh! We're at Epcot on June 20th!!! We'll miss it by a day. Anyone know if they ever do test runs the day before? I'm not even going to let my kids know that they'll miss it by a day, but I'm sure there are going to be signs everywhere!

I'm just annoyed that now I have to get up at 4 am too make my FEA FP reservation tomorrow morning!

On the good news side, I want to get it for June 22, which is *just* inside the 60 day window, so at least I'll only be competing with onsite guests.

The site is still going to crash tomorrow morning. Sigh...

I wouldn't be surprised if they opened FPs later today. They generally seem to release them before the blog says they will be open to book.

I appreciate the encouragement. I'll be checking!

So will FP+ for Frozen Ever After be available tomorrow at 7am EST? Midnight FP+ bookings have been changed to 7am, correct?

Yes.
7AM EASTERN TIME is the new FP+ booking time.

So, that's:
6:00AM CENTRAL
5:00AM MOUNTAIN
4:00AM PACIFIC
and, only those who live in Hawaii can figure out their time.


(Hey, if you can post the same question twice, I can post the same answer twice.)

Right now I have Test Track and Mission Space booked for June 8th. I'm assuming that they will have Soarin be a Tier 1 and we can only have one of those at Epcot - correct? So to book Soarin, I will have to delete Test Track. Should I do this before the window opens up tomorrow?

2. we can only have one of those at Epcot - correct?
3. So to book Soarin, I will have to delete Test Track.
4. Should I do this before the window opens up tomorrow?

1. Very likely, but we don't know. Too much "new stuff" happening right now.
2. See answer #1.
3. See answer #1.
4. Only if things are "normal." (But, see answer #1.)

I thought you could change a Tier 1 to another Tier 1 attraction. I also have a Soarin FP+ that I'll want to swap for a FEA FP+ - I was planning to "modify" - shouldn't that work?

 

[smallworld101]

I am SO glad Frozen is opening at 9 am and that I already have 8 am Akershus ADR! Wew! I got lucky!

1- I thought you could change a Tier 1 to another Tier 1 attraction. I also have a Soarin FP+ that I'll want to swap for a FEA FP+ - I was planning to "modify"
2- shouldn't that work?

1- Yes, you CAN do that.
2- It will, if the other FP is available.

Ugh... don't see FP now.. have to come back at 4 am. Sigh...

We are a party of 6, with three adults, an eight year old, a four year old' and two month old. We are going to split HS (morning) and Epcot (afternoon/evening) and probably back to HS for the Star Wars fireworks. Our tip is June 18-26, and with all the new attractions I am expecting bigger crowds than we originally anticipated.

On Monday, June 21, right now I have fast passes for all of us at TSM at 9-10. We want to do Jedi training first and then ride TSM, hopefully twice if we are able to sign up for Jedi academy fast enough. I have ended up canceling my tier two FP for HS thinking that I would get to make FP selections for Epcot for that afternoon if possible as soon as we use our TSM fast pass. Is that a smart move or should I just try to rope drop TSM and make my fast passes for Epcot? We are spending Sunday morning at Epcot (no fast passes). I was hoping to utilize the rider switch as much as possible by booking two people at soarin and getting rider switch passes for the rest of us and doing the same at test track. However, we will defiantly want the new Frozen ride too. What do you all suggest??? Should I cancel TSM in order to book Epcot fast passes?

I currently have FP on Friday 5/27 in the evening for Test Track, Spaceship Earth, and Turtle Talk. We will be hopping to Epcot around 5pm, so rope drop isn't possible. I have a couple of questions:
1. Should I keep my Test Track FP instead of swapping out for Soarin'? Or is Soarin' a better use of a FP? With the 3rd theater opening, I was wondering if the standby line may move quicker?

2. Do you think the Mission Space may move back to Tier 2, and I will be able to trade my Turtle Talk FP for Mission Space?

 

[Robo]

Do you think the Mission Space may move back to Tier 2, and I will be able to trade my Turtle Talk FP for Mission Space?

Yes. (If a M:S FP+ is available.)

Question: I have read that Mission Space is supposed to go to a Tier 2 as of May 27th. I am wanting to get a Soarin fastpass for my Epcot day on June 9th, but Mission Space is still showing as a Tier 1 for that day. I just canceled that and reloaded it to check. I want to keep Mission Space as a fastpass and also have Soarin. I already have the new Soarin fastpass for my next trip later on in June and I have Mission Space as a fastpass on the same day as that one. Am I going to be able to keep Mission Space and get Soarin tomorrow?

Okay, I'm here and ready to book!
