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

I think even if you don't use all 3 or their time has expired, you can make one in another park...don't feel you have to wait for them to expire to get anew be after hopping...

They have to have been used or expired before you can get a 4th anywhere.

I think if you use 1 at MK and then decide you are going to leave because its too crowded/sunny/happy etc before you use your other FP and arrive at AK, when you get to AK you will be allowed to book new FP. Prior to the 4th FP option, you were able to book FP 2 and 3 when you got there from reports I had read here....

I would think you'd have to at least cancel your other 2 (or replace them I guess)?

I think that, if you've used one and want to move to another park, this is the prevailing strategy:

Go to a kiosk and trade your FP for the very next FP you can find-- one for 2 minutes from now. Let those 2 minutes pass, and get another for 2 minutes away. Then leave the park. By the time you get to your next park, you should be able to book a FP there... assuming some are still available for the ride you want.

Big FYI to ALL:

If you need to cancel a full day of FP+ to change to another day. (Our son got sick last night so we moved today's to 6/3, which means we lost 7DMT and BOG), DO NOT do it on the app. Do it on the computer. It cancelled our FP+'s for 6/2 instead, which had Anna/Elsa (and our # 1 priority), and I can't get them back. I'm so frustrated!!

Oh, that stinks. I'm sorry that happened for your family. Sick kiddo AND fastpass+ goof up...

After days of constant checking, I scored an A&E FP for our 3rd MK day. But when I tried to copy it to my DD's account, it said standby only. What do I do now? Just keep trying and pray for another one at the same time?

I've been trying to get A&E for our trip in July but it always says Standby only. So that means there are no fastpasses available? Should I keep trying? Has anyone else had any luck with this?

Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks!

Thank you for the great information. Sorry if this has been asked already, but I didn't see it.

5 of us have 7 day tickets at the moment (all on one reservation), so I know that I can book 7 days of FP+ at 60 days. One member of the party may not be able to stay the entire time, but I won't know that until the trip is closer.

If that happens, I would like to downgrade the days on that ticket. Since we are all on the same package, will I have to downgrade all the tickets for everyone in the group and then add back days for the 4 people when we get there? And if I do that, will I lose all the FP+ I made in advance.

Hope this isn't too confusing! TIA.

I am not sure what you mean by downgrading the ticket? Unless it was purchased as a non-expiration, the unused days would be forfeit.

Sorry I knew I was confusing. The package I have now is for 5 people with 8 day tickets, so I can make FP+ for 8 days for everyone. One member of the party informed me that he may not be able to come for the entire stay.

Since we are all on the same reservation package, I'm not sure how to switch the tickets. If I change the package to 3 day tickets for the group I'm concerned that will I lose the FP+ reservations for the entire group. I don't believe I can reduce the number of days on a ticket in advance for just one person or even when I'm at WDW. I know I can increase the days for select members of the party when I'm there.

So I guess the question is, if I have 8 day tickets at 60 days, and I reserve FP+ for 8 days, then modify the reservation to have 3 day tickets for the group, will I lose the FP+ for the other days.

Yeah, no way to make this less confusing.

Hi quick question. We already made our FP+ reservations for our upcoming trip. Another couple is now joining us they haven't bought tickets yet, but should in the next couple of days. We are all linked in MDE. Once they have bought tickets will I have to reschedule our current FP+ reservations and add them? If I do the copy will it copy the same times ? Or just the rides?

I hope this makes sense.

Thanks

Hoping someone can help with a couple of questions.

Our dates are September 24th (late flight, no park day)-October 1 with 4 people in our room. DH & I will be in the parks for all 7 days, the other 2 persons in our room have other plans 2 days out of the 7 days so will only be in the parks 5 of the 7 days. Because we are all in the same room and our tickets all have to be the same, we only booked our trip with 5 days tickets and DH and I are going to upgrade our 2 tickets to 7 days once we get there.

Since we only have 5 day tickets but our room is for 7 nights/8 days:

• Can I only book FP+ for only 5 days or will I be able to book for all the days?
• If I can only book for 5 of the 8 days, once I book 5 of the days, will the other days just be greyed out?

Just trying to understand what to expect.

Thank you in advance

You will be able to book only 5. I have 4 day passes, and if I try to book the 5th day, I receive a message that I reached my maximum and MDE gives the option to switch one day for another.

Our 60 day window is today. I was up at midnight making the very important ones -- 7 Dwarf and A&E MG

We have 6 in our family. How do I separate out 3 from the current FP+ ressie and assign a totally different FP+ for them?

DS 13 and 15 want nothing to do w/ A&E MG. I would like to put them on SM instead. I can't figure out how.

There are several other rides I would like to make seperate ressies for but I can't just pick one I have to Pick 3.

Any help would be appreciated.

I am not in love yet with this whole thing only bc we are fortunate to have a 12 day trip and not every day is a designated park day. We have certain days we know we will be in a specific park but many day are open. We are beyond Commando touring. We actually slept in on some days of last years trip. It was the best. I like that I know on certain days that we will be able to ride what we want but on those days that we don't know I'm lost on how to schedule it.

Thank you so much for this information. This is what I figured but thought I would double check
Good thing that the last 2 days that DH and I will be in the parks are only a 1 and 2 crowd level on TP and that we really want to spend most of our time at the Food & Wine Festival so I don't think FP's are going to be too important for those 2 days anyway.

You can go in to change an experience/ride and then select the 2 people you want to change.

Exactly. You have to make a set of 3 first, then you can change times and people to get what you want from there. The initial options are not what most of us who understand the FP system would choose.

I have the same question as "mykidlovesdisney". Not knowing any better we booked our entire party of 6 for rides... and we need to break out several members (say, 3) and put them on different rides at the same time.

Is the sequence: FP+ -> make selections -> Select or Replace -> ????

I am doing this from the website not the app:
From the home page choose the day you want to change and click edit plans. Next view details for the FP where you want to change the ride. Click modify. Then click change experience. Make sure when you change the only people who have green check marks by their names are the ones you want to change. Once you confirm you should see their FP changed and the other one remains the same for the remaining people in the party. This way you have different rides but the same times.
