If I add a day to my tickets, will it mess up my current FP+ selections?

I currently have 6 days of tickets (5-day MYW + MNSSHP) and 6 days of FP+ booked. Now that Frozen Fun is extended through Sept I'm thinking about adding a day to my MYW tickets so we can go there on our arrival day to see the fireworks. But will this mess up my current FP+ selections? And would it be better to add the day now or wait until I get there? I'd rather wait, because if we're delayed traveling or are just too tired we won't go to DHS that night. I don't want to spend the $ to add a day when I'm uncertain that we'll use it.

A strange thing happened with my FP+ reservations.

We are arriving on Friday and heading straight to Epcot. I booked the following FP for the day:

14:05-15:05 - Mission: Space
15:05-16:05 - Test Track
16:15-17:15 - Maelstrom

This was all fine until yesterday when I went to double check everything.

My DH's FP for Mission Space has been changed but the other 4 family members and myself have remained the same.

So now his FP+ are:

14:10-15:10 - Mission: Space
15:05-16:05 - Test Track
16:15-17:15 - Maelstrom

So now his Mission: Space and Test Track FP+ times overlap. Neither one of us made this change. Did this happen to anyone else? Did you face any issues trying to use the overlapping FP+? Would you recommend speaking with a CM when we get there?

All the other ones seem okay. Very strange!

To anyone who has scheduled recently....is the window opening at midnight pretty consistently now, or is it still not until 1 am in some cases? I schedule tonight and just want to be prepared! Thx!!

Just curious, but how do you have a 5 day MYW pass and 6 days of FP+? I thought you could not use FP+ on hard ticket events?

My understanding is that you can use the hard ticket for FP+ advance reservations as long as you aren't using your other ticket to do the same thing already that day. So you can't double up. But you can use it by itself.

This article is fantastic! Thank you to the posters who pointed me in the right direction. Tons of great info on here.

I'm feeling quite nervous about setting up our FP+'s also, just because we're not staying more then 5 days, and only going to the MK for 1 of those but in the middle of our trip. So I have to still wait a couple more days out before I can try to grab em. But with all the helpful hints on here, hoping to get A&E for my DD's 5th birthday onsite at MK. But if it doesn't happen that's ok. We'll be there at RD and have to beeline for them.

But for others who have setup their FP+'s in October, does it seem to be as quick for items to disappear, or are rides/attractions still available for at least 1 day?

Thanks for any help!

For me it was 12 EDT... That was 10 days ago. Just be ready for 12 I say..

There are no FP available during hard ticket events, but you can use a party ticket to book FP+ for that day since you can use this ticket to enter the MK at 4:00. So on our party day I have FPs booked for 3:30-4:30, 4:30-5:30, and 5:30-6:30. (5:30-6:30 was the latest window I saw available, probably so they can clear the FP lines of non-party guests by 7:00.)

Has anyone added days to tickets after FP+ are booked? I want to add a day but am scared it will mess up my FPs, and I don't want to risk losing our A&E time!

I'm back in the States after a great opportunity to visit Tokyo Disney for a few days. By the way, they still have Legacy FP there and I owned it like you read about.

I've searched all over and cannot find the answer to this so I apologize in advance if it's been covered elsewhere ...

We're heading to Disney at the end of Oct and my 60 day FP+ window is Monday! My family has tickets already but my mom is thinking about coming with us so she has not purchased her park ticket yet. She is already on our room and dining reservations, I can remove her from those if she decides not to come with us. Will I be able to include her in our FP+ reservations when I book them on Monday or does she need to have a ticket ID entered on the MDE site to be eligible?

TIA!

She needs to have a ticket linked to MDX. I think this is covered in the OP. If not, I need to add it.

ETA: Yep, very top of first post.

Very cool! Now all the Tokyo Disney Execs are trying to figure out how to stop the uberusers!

They can't stop me, they can only hope to contain me.

We're about 3 weeks out from our trip and I was able to grab FP for SDMT for 4/5 members of my family. The times I grabbed are all different over a few hours and I wasn't able to get one for one person. Do you think I'll be able to grab another FP and get them close to overlapping or should we just plan to hit this at RD and change the FP back to BTMR?

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!!

I see that the "copy" function is still available in the MDX app, but thought I remembered reading somewhere that this function didn't really work, or that the changes made this way weren't taking? Can anyone confirm? I have been able to get overlapping windows for A&E for 3 members of my party, and wanted to try to copy someone's plans over to my 4th, but am terrified it won't work and/or I will lose my current selections! Had anyone done this effectively? TIA!
