Fast pass plus booking open time

[cooks]

Morning all,

Done a google search but getting two answers - what time does fast pass plus open U.K. Time. 5am or 12pm.

My 60 day booking day is next Monday and want to be prepared as I can be .

Thanks,

Cooks

7am EST, which is 12 midday in the UK.

Yeah 12pm in the UK! We thought it was 12am US time for some reason so spent hours on monday getting annoyed but then at 12 it worked lol

Thank you all! Fingers crossed we get what we are after

Just a tip - book the most popular FPs for the end of your trip first.

So for our ten day trip, I booked FOP first for day 9, then FEA for day 8, followed by NRJ, and SDMT... etc etc. Then I went back and added the easy to get FPs.

Excellent tip! Thank you very much. Am I crazy, I don't plan to fast pass plus fea is it really that good? Ha.

Not really my cup of tea. Is it just the refurbished Norway ride? Cannot remember what it was called now.

I haven't even seen frozen?! Maybe I should watch before. Think I'm going to plan it in as it's all I see online 'book fast pass for fea'

It's refurbed Maelstrom, yes I have no idea if it's any good - i suspect probably underwhelming, but still a must do for us! Haha.

You should watch frozen though. It's brilliant.

It used to be but it changed last year. I used to get up at 4.45am (11.45pm US eastern time), log on and type like crazy to book 14 days of ADR's, then do the same for the final 3 days (it only lets you book the first 14 days). Now I have to have the days off as it's midday, good job I work shifts!

Ah that explains it! I thought I had just gone mad and got the wrong time lol

you suspect right, it's rather meh
it's just about the same Maelstrom *track* with a Frozen theming, and a picture taken at the end.
If you have young girls in tow, they'll be thrilled. But ... well ... you'll see for yourself.

I woulnd't FP it though, and TBH I have managed to get a 4th FP+ for that one, 2nd week of august last year ...


Regarding FP+ opening time, it's supposed to be midday ... but I'd tell you that MyDisneyExperience is .... well ... just like everything at Disney's ... inconsistent and unpredictable ...

Many have managed to book FP+ earlier. And I myself was able to, a few days ago
we only have MNSSHP tickets for Aug 25th. I was online at my 60 days mark, and just tried, just in case, at 7am ... and it let me book my FP+ hours in advance ..

so I wouldn't set the alarm and wake up at silly o'clock, but if you can get online once you're normally up, or when you get to the office, just give it a try. You never know

May give FEA a miss then. Thanks for all the great tips. I am on a course on Monday which is my 60 day mark so will have to book like mad at lunch!

Qq- I have just looked on the app at the fast pass plus section it says there are no tickets linked to account but I can see there is? Will these become live at the 60 day mark?

Well that's it. All sorted managed to get most of what we wanted just had to swap the days around for two new rides in ak. Started at the back and worked forward it worked a treat.

Went for the earliest times possible in an attempt to grab more passes once the three have been used approach.

The count down begins! 60 days till Disney and 54 until Start of vacation.
