Note that Shades of Green Resort does not enable 60-day FP+ at this time (unless that's changed when I wasn't looking).

I went with the assumption that since the PP said onsite rather than SoG that they weren't staying at SoG, although I didn't know if SoG was considered onsite for FP+.
 
With the addition of the Eat to the Beat concerts as a tier 1 EPCOT FP+ :headache::mad:, what are the odds of a 4th FP+ after using the first three in a different park (all in the morning)? There is really only one of four concerts I don't want to miss and it is on one of our DHS days. I have never felt the need to avail myself of a 4th FP+, so if it is possible to snag one around noon time--do I have to go to an Epcot kiosk or can I do it at DHS for the concert?

It is "on-site" for some things (transportation, Extra Magic Hours) but not others (FP+ 60-day, parking at theme parks, ADRs)

Additional FP+ always have to be done at the kiosks in the park in which you want the FP+, so Epcot only.

As far as whether it will be possible, we'll have to wait and see since we don't know what the popularity/availability of FP+ for the concerts are yet. My guess is they will be too limited.

Agreed. :thumbsup2

By the way, I've updated the attraction list in the first posts to add ETTB and note it as a Tier 1 but I did not suggest a priority for it--I just tacked it on to the bottom of the Epcot section. My reasoning is the same as yours--we can't know yet how these fit into the Epcot FP universe.

I thought that it was a requirement to make the 4th in the park where you are seeking it, but as I said--we've never felt the need to seek a 4th. :confused3

It is my hope that the FP+ are limited as well and that the folks who bite on them will be few and far between. I have to say I am really annoyed at this offering so late in the game for those of us going to F&W early in the festival. Our plans have been set for weeks and this is suddenly popped out of nowhere. :furious: Really puts my knickers in a knot. . .

I thought that's what I said... :)

Not confused about what you said but rather why I have never felt the need to utilize one. You were perfectly clear and I was reiterating that I thought that was the process, but couldn't recall. :)

The FPs for ETTB seem popular. Yesterday when I went on in late afternoon CA time, FPs for the first weekend were in limited supply. Some shows were "Sold Out" FP-wise and this is for David Cook!! I may, or may not, have FPs to see him each day! ;)

I don't doubt it. As you undoubtedly know though, popularity doesn't necessarily translate into "good" use of limited FP. ;)

My bad! I forgot what your FP rating was about!! ;) I'll check to see how early people are lining up and if the FP really provides good seating considering the short return window - will get back to you!

Thanks, that would be great. I imagine though that by the time we have a feel for if it's a good use or not the ETTBs will be over. Oh well, could be used as a data point for next year. :goodvibes

If you happen to be staying CL, they may be ske to help you out before you arrive at Epcot.
 
I'm sorry this has probably already been ask.. but I dont have the patience to look at the 170 pages.
My 60 days window open midnight saturday..Going from october 29 to november 7 with 8 days park hopper and water park option. On the 29, we only do MNSSHP. Will I be able to book 9 days of FP+ even if I only have 8 days tickets plus the MNSSHP ( gonna use 3h30 pm to 6h30 pm FP)

I believe so, yes. If not, please let us know here. :goodvibes

You have 9 days of tickets though since you have an 8-day regular park ticket and an MNSSHP ticket.
 
You know that, and I know that, and the PP knows that, but does MDX know that? I don't remember. ;)

Last I recall, it did treat event tickets as an extra day. I don't recall if it restricted FP+ to 4pm-7pm :)

Thanks, that's what I thought too but wasn't sure.

I do know that party tickets don't restrict you to a certain timeframe, at least as of last year. I'm assuming that's still true since I haven't heard otherwise. I know you know this, but for others reading the caveat is you can schedule FP earlier, they're just useless to anyone using just a party ticket.

My understanding is that it doesn't, however, since you can't enter MK on an MNSSHP ticket until 4pm, you wouldn't actually be able to use those FPs.
