Fast Pass + this morning was basically ticketmaster

[eiblehs]

My 60 day mark was earlier this week and I had the same issues with the website crashing for a solid 10 minutes. I used the MDE app on my phone and the Disney website on my laptop trying to get one of them to work. It was so frustrating, especially when there were no FOP FastPasses left for the day I needed them. The app ended up working better than the website, so I just used my phone to book them all. I was gutted when I couldn’t get FOP. However, I just checked the MDE app (4 days later) and found more FOP availability for my AK day!!! So I lost hours of sleep and caused myself unnecessary anxiety over nothing. Lol

My 60 day mark was today and got everything we wanted for our 8 Park days including FOP, SDD. Was happy had no glitches after seeing how iffy system has been.

I booked fps at my 60 day then added a night to our stay but it won't allow me fps, says I am at limit. Annual placeholder so tickets is not issue. Hotel reservation shows in mde .Just won't let me book added day's fps.
Yesterday I tried, got toy story with several available times. Chose one and confirmed. Yeah system is working like it should!!
It didn't go down to ask if I wanted to book another fps that day but instead went back to beginning of add fp page. Showed my name but would not list rest of family. Froze like this awhile. And toy story fps disappeared.
Disney IT sucks.

I booked my fast passes 2 days ago for 6 nights. Added a night yesterday and a day to my ticket, and booked FP for that date immediately

I think mine is glitching because of the seven day AP limit even thought on site hotel should override .
We go a lot and this has happened when we stay value first night then check into dvc for the week.

Got FOP for day 4 and SDD for day 3, SDMT days 1, 5, 7, 8

Made our FPs this morning and the website which never fails me on my desktop froze up. Used my iPhone and iPad to make them and it worked out fine. The app was a little slow at first but then got going like normal. Scheduled what we wanted at the times we wanted Aliens day 3 FOP day 4 and SDD day 5. Saw someone mention that when you have two reservations booked within 60 days of each other there is a glitch that will allow you to book your second reservations FPs a day early. It's true! I thought I would test it out today even though tomorrow is our 60 day window and it let me book!!! Yay! We leave tomorrow morning for our 8 night June trip! SOOOO EXCITED!

How about our family / friends who have no idea how much can go into planning this (so far in advance)?

"What? You're STILL working on Disney vacation that's not for another TWO MONTHS???"

Who has heard THAT one a time or two (or ten?)

And yes - ADRs before the FP window adds another limitation.

At two moths - you're late!

Made my FPs this morning. I set an alarm to make sure I woke up on time, had a spreadsheet, had both my computer open (cookies cleared) and my phone app. It glitched quite a bit and there was a whole day that said that all available FPs were gone for the entire day (!!), but I knew that had to be wrong. My AK day was 60+1, so I did that one first and scored FOP right away. Ended up with everything I wanted for 3 days for 2 people. I was finished by 7:15.

Nice! What times were available/what did you get? I’m hoping for a morning FP for 2, tomorrow is my 60 days...

 

[Tink-aholic]

The only ones available were 6PM and after. I was okay with this, since we have ROL dining package reservations at Tiffins. I chose 6:45.

Would not count on getting a morning fastpass for Slinky or FoP until 60+3. We luckily got a 12:10 FOP for 60+2 but that was after a bit of refreshing later in the day. Right at 7am there was nothing pre-4pm for either ride on 60+1 or 60+2.

Horrible morning! I’m used to a few glitches when planning my trips but today was the worst since the 2014 rollout. I could not ever make more than one fast pass before the system locked me out, sent me to Olaf or locked up. I actually screamed at the computer at one point.

Wrote a letter to Disney. I am beyond aggravated. I spend thousands per year in dvc dues, annual passes, Dining, runDisney. Joke’s on me, I suppose.

After today, I just feel stupid that I give this company my money. They are happy to take ever increasing amounts of it and in return, offer me a clunky, busted website.

So unfortunate and wish you would've had better luck. I seriously recommend the iPhone App (unless you are on the darkside) and/or an Incognito Window in Google Chrome. Zero issues with both for me.

Thanks. I’ll try the incognito window. I was on Google Chrome. The App would not function at all this morning for me for over an hour.

I had a ton of issues with the website and app today. Tried incognito as well to no avail.

I know FOP is impossible, but I always see people talking about mornings.

What about FOP at day 60 for the evening? We have a half day on our arrival day and debating putting that as an AK evening to see Pandora at night. Not sure if it's worth it though.

It seems somewhat random. I just booked a trip for July 11-17 today at about 10am today. Then went on the website (google chrome, incognito window, MacBook) and booked fast passes. I got FOP for July 15 and SDD on July 16. Both were later afternoon times but no big deal. SDMT was no big deal to get either. This is all for 3 people and it all worked flawlessly.

I booked a couple of ADRs too and I couldn't believe all the openings. Garden Grill and Hollywood Brown Derby, both for lunch. Could have picked any time I wanted.

Might be possible, but only for late times. 60+2 for us the earliest time was 4:45. However, I checked 30 minutes later and found a 12:10 but haven't seen anything that early again.

If you're wondering on dates, this was for 8/4. Earliest I see for FOP for 2 people as of now is 6:25pm.
