FastPass+ Basic Info, Suggested Priorities, And Strategies--Part II

[Planogirl]

Anyone else booking tonight? I got three days done and then the website decided to crash. It won't let me pull up anything now.

 

[Planogirl]

Yay, it's back! At least that was a quick crash.

I'm am onsite for the beginning of our trip them move offsite. I thought I could do fp+ at 60 days for the onsite then rolling for the offsite days but it's not showing up for me. Any suggestions? I have tickets that go all the way through connected to mde

 

[Planogirl]

When does your onsite stay start?

 

[Monica]

12/10 so I already did those but we move offsite on 12/13 and but now I'm thinking those would be rolling tomorrow? I'm so confused

 

[Planogirl]

Never mind. Someone who knows is here!

Sorry for the repeated question.

Going to BUY an additional Magic Band. Have 3 all on APs, have my son's (4th) who is not on our DisneyExperience Account. We will use his at the kiosks, what do I do with the additional purchased Band, add a dummy person to his DisExperience Account?

Thanks

Steve

The rolling begins 60 days before your first offsite park day.

Mercy bump...

Actually it's 30 for the offsite part isn't it? That's what I get for reading that late at night. I think that she could do that checkout day in the 60 group but the rest would have to wait until 30 days?

No, it's 60. Once the 60-day window opens, it continues to roll forward each day.

When we checked into GF on September 20th, our FP booking window was open through mid-November even though I would be back in California by the 29th.

I see. It still doesn't solve the mystery as to why she was having trouble though. Maybe she figured it out.

She wasn't calculating 60 days before her offsite park day. She just thought the rolling would begin after her booking window opened. Just an error on her part.

I am trying to make fast passes and wonder if this is normal. We are staying off site so I am making them each day as it rolls. I just made 3 for Magic Kingdom and they are listed in my itinerary, but any time I try and modify them it states that no one has fast passes for that day. A temporary glitch or do I need to do something more?

Site is not working well this morning. Probably just a glitch. Try the app, or check back later.

Thank you!

seems the whole reservations system is down or having major issues this morning - dining, rooms, everything....can get to MDX, but that's about it....

I think I have this answered, but can one of you experts confirm for me please? My family and I are flying down for 5 nights/6 days in early January. We did stay/play/dine, so everything is on one reservation and nice and easy. However, a friend of mine who lives in FL will be meeting us at the resort for the last 2 nights/3 days. She still needs to reserve her room (was supposed to this week) and our reservations will be linked as soon as she does. Since my FP window opens before hers does, but I'm the one doing all the planning for the trip, will I be able to make FP reservations for our whole party when my window starts? Or do I need to wait until she is 60 days out so we can all ride together? We don't need A&E, but will want 7DMT. Thanks!!

Have her purchase her tickets separately and not as a package. She needs to link them to her MDE.

When your booking window opens, you'll be able to book for her because she is linked to your MDE AND her tickets are valid because they are linked and not tied up in a package.

What's even easier is to just add her as a Friend in your MDE account. Then you don't have to mess with the linking of two MDE accounts.

Great, that's exactly what I thought. I'll let her know now. Bad news is, she just responded that her son is indeed Frozen-obsessed - I figured with 3 boys we could skip A&E - now I have to try.
