Hi! Going to WDW with my family in December. (13-20) 7 adults and 1 teen. Staying at OKW. I am the "planner" and have set up my MDX account and linked everyone as part of my party. Our tix are already linked. We are coming up on our date to book FP. This will be my first time using the new FP+ system. I am trying to read through all these threads, but there is so much info, I'd like to cut to the chase since my time is short to figure this out. So, please forgive me if my questions have been answered ad nauseum here. We have already planned what parks we will be in each day and what rides we would like to FP each day. We aren't going for any character meets , but we are trying to get Peter Pan, Soarin, SDMT, Toy Story, and most of the thrill rides. Since we are a large group, I know it could be difficult.
So, my first question is : can Another member of my group log on to our MDX website at the same time as me to "tag-team" making our reservations? If so, does the other person need to have their own login, or can they also use mine?
2: is that even a good strategy for the best chance to get the FP we want? I figure we could each take a day that has the highest-priority FPs, and be working on the reservations at the same time.
3: for the most desirable FPs, should I even try to book 8 at once, or is it most likely we will have to book smaller groups that overlap?
4: there are some rides that my Dad, for example, will not be able to go on. It seems easiest to just book our whole party on the same rides however. My understanding is, his FP must be used before whe can book any in-park FP. What do we do if we would like to keep our group together? I'd prefer not to book my Dad and one of us on some other ride at the same time everyone else is doing "soarin", for example. I know it may be possible to send my nephew on a ride twice, using my Dad's FP. Any other suggestions?
I appreciate any tips or advice you have. Thanks for helping to make our trip magical!
