FastPass+ Basic Info, Attraction List, and Suggested Priorities--Part I

[alicat130]

Definitely keep checking, but if your main goal is to ride together, then I'd say try for RD. It will be difficult to get 5 overlapping time periods, I think. I am having trouble doing the same thing for my party of 4 for A&E, and my window just opened last night! But if you don't mind riding at different times, keep 'em and congrats on scoring them so close to your trip!!

It's not so much that we have to ride together, but that the times are all separate over around 5 hours. Right now, it would waste our evening for our only day at MK.

I tried copying plans and I wasn't able to get that to work.

Then not worth it, in my opinion, especially if you have the option of heading straight there at RD. May wait a bit longer, but won't ruin your entire evening!

That's what I'm thinking.

FYI-I tried copying to our 5th person and it loaded a different screen, but just made his time for his third attraction,BTMR, match the time that I had for SDMT. I just did that last night. Hope that helps you!

If you have a child under 3, are they fine to come with you for the M&G's even though they don't have a FP+? Sorry if this has been answered a million times, just trying to be thorough.

Yes. Only 3 and over have a park ticket and therefore can get a FP+.

Thanks. I risked it and did the "copy" and it shows that it worked.....but I'm wondering if it really did? Guess we'll find out when we try to get in! Lol!!

Great! Thank you so much. I was just worried about the FP+ lines and if they would not allow through those considering how in demand they are. But great to hear!

What is the best time to book fast passes? Is it still from roughly 11:30am to 6:00pm? If it is within that time frame is it better earlier that way more fast passes can be picked up after the three have been used?

My approach is to book for later in the day. You may get less FP+ that way, but if you're there at park opening, you won't really need FP+ for the first hour or so that a park is open (especially at MK).

Others may think differently, but this is what we do.

I would recommend the same, especially as there appears to be very little day-of availability outside MK.

Question: I think I have read correctly.... My brother and I have two different reservation number, two different MDE accounts for our November trip. We have linked it together under friends and family. I was able to make all our ADR no problem and could see their names. When I book fastpasses for ALL of us, its basically the same process? I would only need to use the "copy" function if someone is added at a later time (which will not happen) and I would need to get them a pass at our times right?

Correct, unless there are children involved in both accounts. Only one adult can manage a child, so if your brother has children on his account, you cannot make FP+ selections for them.

I think that you CAN do this--the permission just has to be granted. I made FPs for all my three rooms---even my Friend's children that are staying in his room.

Are the kids linked to your account or his? I tried to give DH permissions to schedule FP+ for our kids (we each have an MDX account, but the kids ate linked to mine) and the system told me a child could only be managed by 1 adult?

I have a weird and maybe dumb question

My parents and I are going to Hollywood Studios tomorrow (our seasonal pass block out dates are finally done ) and Toy Story Mania for all 3 of us for a FP+ is completely sold out.

Now on MDE, if I select one of us, that person can get Toy Story but when I go to do the whole "Copy From" on the MDE app, it literally messes it all up and no matter how many different ways I do it, it keeps messing it up.

So my question is, how can I have, let's say my mom, have a FP for Toy Story and get me and my dad to be copied to that same FP? (did that make sense? I'm sorry if it didn't)

Thank you for all your help!

I don't believe you can, unless there are 3 available. My guess is there is only 1 available right now, and that's why you can see it if you try one at time. It will not copy to everyone, if there are not any available.

You may want to try scheduling separate times for all 3 of you that overlap somewhere in the middle?

That's what I figured was going on. Thankfully we've been on this ride many times! Okay, thank you so much for responding

When I looked, it was like either 9-10 or 4-5 haha But it's okay! I'll check again tomorrow morning on the way there! Thank you so much!!!

Crap.. Yes I have a 15 year old and his are 9 and 6... But what if I was the one managing everybody? How does he give me permission on mde? At 60 days out? He Is the navy so trying to coordinate is tough.. That's why I'm in charge

If you are managing everyone, you should be fine. I think you should be able to tell who's linked to your account when you log into MDX (Under people you manage? Or something like that?) Are you guys all on the same room reservation? If so, and you manage the reservation, you are probably all linked.
