Fast Pass - Question

[stink]

I am an new annual pass holder but a long time DVC member, but I have not had a split stay since FP+ came onilne.

I will be onsite at AKL from Dec 2 to checking out on Dec 9th
Checking into Swan for Work Conference Dec 9-11
Checking into Beach Club Dec 11-13

All the reservations are linked to my MDE.

Can I make all of my fast pass reservations for Dec 2-13th on Oct 3rd (60 days from Dec 2) ?

Yes - you can make all of your FP+ on 10/3; the FP's are linked to your tickets, not your hotel reservation. That said, are the AP's active and showing up in MDE?

Thanks for your response ! Yes the APs are showing in MDE.

Thanks for your response ! Yes the APs are showing in MDE.

You're welcome and good luck tomorrow!! I'm stressing over doing my FPs in a couple of weeks.

We have done split stays with DVC and APs. As long as the APs are linked to a person, you can do your FPs.
Good luck. Hope MDE is working better tomorrow than it has lately.

MDE is only letting me book 8 days worth of Fast passes, getting this message when trying to book on day 9

FastPass+ Limit Reached
These Guests have reached their maximum FastPass+ allotment. To continue, remove them from your party. Their existing plans won't change. Or, go back and select a date for which you already made FastPass+ selections.

So I just got off the phone with the passholder phone line and apparently you can only book per the Disney cast member seven days of FP, you can not book your length of stay at a Disney Resort should it exceed 7 days, btw it let me book 8 days. Overall very disappointed I should have done research on the limits of FP booking for on property stays for annual passholders. Now I will limit my trips to 8 or 9 days. Putting on my flame proof suite because, IMHO, this Disney policy sucks and penalizes the annual pass holders, that wants a longer stay on property, it especially sucks that those passholders may want one long stay vs mutlipe short trips due to travel distances. YMMV.

I'm AP and just this morning booked all 13 days of fast pass for our Dec. onsite stay. Never have had a problem doing that

Nevermind. Sorry for my confusion. I tend to skip words when I read!

No, I am not a cast member, I spoke to a Disney Cast member and have an annual pass/DVC member.

BUT I do have an update, a friend suggested I call the internet help line directly (I initially called the passholder line) as she believed the information I was given was incorrect. So after a long conversation with an IT guy and him reviewing MDE and being put on hold for about 25 minutes, they were able to book FP for the remainder of days. YEAH !

I did ask about possible future split stays and if this problem was common. Per the IT guy the problem was caused by the Swan Reservation. The Swan reservation was showing as being linked on MDE and you can make 60+ FP while at the Swan but for some reason related to the Swan not being an official Disney resort, the IT system was not linking the Swan with the other two reservations at AKV and BCV.

My takeaway from this two hour process, is do not believe what one cast member tells you, if Dis Board Peeps and other IRW Peeps tell you differently, call and talk to someone else.

TTFN...I have to get to work to make more money to give to Disney.
