Is the standby lines for Mission: Space Green Team usually shorter than the Red Team? Is it worth using a FP for the Green Team?

Green is usually a shorter wait than Orange.

Another silly question...the 3 FP+ that you get per day, does that include parades and character greetings? I think it does but I want to be sure.

Yes, parades and character meet and greets are included in your three selections. The only Fp+ that is not included is BoG lunch if you have made arrangements for it.

Thanks. Orange, not red - got it. Either way, I'll be on the green team.

Hi I am sure this is posted somewhere and I just missed it! Our window to book FP opens April 14th. What time can I start booking them that morning? My DD really wants to meet Anna and Elsa! Thanks!

Midnight EST... you don't have to wait until the morning!

How about BOG? Does that open at the 60 day mark like FP+? Or did it open at 180 days like a restaurant ressie?

FP for BOG has been opening around the 20th for the next month, but does vary. For example, they opened March and April around the same time (Feb 20th).

At parks that don't have tiering, can you get 2 FP+ for the same ride, such as 2 FP+ for Kilimanjaro Safari and 1 for Expedition Everest, or do you have to get 3 fast passes that don't repeat an attraction?

No repeats.

Thanks for posting. I bet the FP+ reservations will be there after he cancels ( if he has the guts...).

Just wanted to give a quick update on what happened. For anyone not following the earlier discussion-- I had booked ASM, received Magic Bands, linked tickets, reserved FP+, and the decided at the last minute to switch to the Dolphin (using Starwood points for the room).

After I cancelled the ASM reservation, my FP+ reservations stayed in MDE for about a day or two, and then one night (about 4-5 days before the trip) I logged in to the MDE app and they were all gone.

On the plus side, I was still able to use the Magic Bands in the parks when booking day-of FP+, and also was able to use my BOG FP+ reservation.

Hope this helps others who might be weighing making a similar decision! We had a great trip and were largely unaffected by having to book FP+ day-of (aside from a 5-10min line at the kiosks in each park).

While I do feel bad this happened to you, since you were obviously not trying to take advantage of the system, secretly I am happy the "ghost" room loophole appears to not be going to work.

FP+ question regarding fireworks and parades at Magic Kingdom: Does the FP+ area have seating or just a special place to stand?

Part 2: I'm seeing that you cannot book FP+ at the 60 day mark. Does a FP+ for fireworks count as one of your 3?

Thanks in advance!

What's the "'ghost' room loophole"?

 

[Stefecatzz]

All resort guests get magic bands. It is your room key. Fast pass and park tickets are just part of the overall use of magic bands.

Yeah, I'm not sure what I was thinking when I wrote that. I just stayed at Pop so I should've known better.

Thanks for the clarification.

Part One: I think it's just special standing area, but I'm not 100% on that.

Part Two: Yes it does count as one of your 3. The only thing that doesn't is lunch ADR at Be Our Guest

No repeats.

Thanks! Sadly, that's what I figured.

I tried reading as many replies as I could but, with 59 pages, I'd be here a few days! I apologize in advance if this was asked before but what happens if someone wants to park-hop? What if you want to do one park in the am and one in the pm, as long as the FP+ times do not coincide, why can't we do it?
Thanks!

 

[Jane1967]

You can park hop, but they will not let you do FP's in both parks. Some people go to one park in the AM and then do their FP's at the other in the afternoon.
