You can see what's available before you commit and cancel your previous FP+ selections.

Can you talk me through how to do this?

and your doing it through the app or browser?

This FP+ stuff seems rather complicated to me. I miss going to WDW ONE year and all this ticket stuff changes. If it was just my family going this year I can manage it, but my sister's kids and my kids are going to the parks two days on their own so I guess they need to coordinate what times and here they'll go.

Can her daughter make the plans and get the FP+s for my daughter ahead of time? How is that done if my daughter's tickets are linked to our room?

I have mostly been using the browser because Im afraid of the app with the glitches that have been reported

How is it done thru the app so you don't lose your park that day

Thank you so much

I believe only one adult can manage a child, do you'll need to set up either your account with all the kids or your sister's account with all the kids, and one of you will need to do all the scheduling. If she has more park days than you, it should be her, so she can schedule all her days. Now, it just occurred to me that these "kids" may actually be adults, and if that's the case, you just need to be linked in each other's family and friends, and anyone can schedule for anyone.

Use the modify my existing FP+ selection option in the MDE app. Then go from there ..pick chose make new FP or replace selections.. party then pick your party then park ... then selections. Either except or cancel out.

I have a couple of questions. I'm sure they have been answered many times but I've read a few pages and am not sure.
1. Once I arrive at WDW on my vacation, if I go to the park to make my kiosk fp choice, do I need all the bands or can I do it all with my band?
2. I have also got hard tickets; can I use all the hard tickets to get fps?

Okay. My window is nearing.

So I'm looking at the prioritized list but HS does tiering a d I don't see which are in either group.
All of this info is blurring together.

Also: I plan on 4 Park days, but only have 2d tickets right now. (Gate upgrade)... which two days should I book my FP for now and which two later? No interest in A&E but I definitely want to do 7DMT.
Should I go ahead and book FP for the 2 MK days and do HS/AK on the fly?
Planning on HS, MK, MK, AK.
I'd like to do 7DMT the second MK day.
If there's no issue with booking FP for MK the night before (like things won't be available), I feel like it would be easiest to do HS and 2nd MK when my window opens, and then after we settle at the hotel that first night after HS (or even during naptime) I can book FP for the following day and probably book AK FP during our rest day.

I feel like HS/MK will be ok since I'm not trying to book FPs for anything that sells out on that first MK day.

 

[slzer0]

On a separate subject, would you use a FP for MK parade/fireworks with a toddler?

We usually use parade time to hit rides, but maybe he will be interested? If so, just walking up to view in am uncrowded area (no wait) sounds like gold.

I don't remember how long the parades are themselves, but waiting is long, with an antsy toddler it'll feel endless.

We are a party of 5 and my fast pass + window opens up next Friday Sept 5th.

While all members of the party should up in my disney experience when I go to the fast pass + section now it is only showing my name? am I going to have issues the day of? I went into my disney experience and all the members of my party are everywhere else on the site except for the fast pass + area is this because we are not at the 60 day mark yet? I am nervous

 

[Linda67]

Sorry, I have been searching for an answer to this question but can't seem to get the info I need

If you have selected just 1 FP for any given day, can you add 2 more (in the same park) at a later date?

TIA

Tier 1 attractions are in red. Explained below the suggested priority list.

The system forces you to select 3 from the get-go.

Oh I was wondering the same thing since we'll be going with a 5yo and a 2yo. I think they would enjoy watching these.

....another eager learner here .......

2. I have also got hard tickets; can I use all the hard tickets to get fps?

....I was calling them 'paper' tickets, but I'd like to know this too....

 

[kimmar067]

The number of FP+ allotted for each attraction/time are limited, though. Reports I've read have stated no more than a 20-minute wait with a FP+, even the M&Gs.

....well that's not too bad I suppose.....so this is going to sound like a really dumb question, but with these 'pre-ordered' fastpasses, are there no more kiosks near each of the rides/attractions anymore, to get the 'old style' fastpasses?

 

[Linda67]

The system forces you to select 3 from the get-go.

One of the 4 options I was presented with, contained only one attraction
I selected this option as for various reasons, the time slot was perfect for me
I actually ended up calling the MDE Helpdesk and they added another 2 FPs for me
