FastPass+ FAQ — SERVICE SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

[Bravesfan]

Today is my 30 day mark for MVMCP tickets and it allows me to make fastpasses for the entire day, up to 6:30. Just wanted to be sure that I could use the party ticket for a.m. fastpasses. We will be in the park.

You won't be able to enter the park until 4 pm on your party ticket, so would be unable to use any FPs you scheduled for the morning.

The system does not differentiate between types of ticket entitlements, though, so will not restrict the hours you can actually schedule the FPs.

Thank you Cluelyss.

Please report back when you have time. Thanks!

Back again.
Your info was correct. Will be able to book day by day from now on. Thanks heaps for that info.

Our stay has been split by pop century due to the length of stay so our 2nd check in time is the 17th of january which im tipping will open up all remaining days from then till we leave on the 26th of january.

We did ring disney and i must say 3 people had 3 different answers all of which were incorrect.

First it was yes you should be able to book the length of stay. Next person from I.T we got passed onto said no you can only book 7 days then wouldnt be able to pick any more until we went to the park and used our first 3 fastpasses.

My fiance laughed and said how come we have already booked for 14days.
The final CM said we can only book for 14 days and thats it. When told about people on disboards being able to book 21 days in a row he didnt think it plausible and basically said good luck.

All cast members were polite but its pretty dissapointing knowing they really have no idea about how the system works.

The explination of selecting fastpasses needs to be worded better. The length of stay quote needs to be removed as it is only a 14 day max limit to book fastpasses.

A simple at 60 days if staying onsite you will be able to book up to a max of 14 consecutive days.


Anyway it will all be fine, lucky the disboards has a great wealth of information with people who can supply correct information.

Cheers

Rolling FastPass days: We are staying onsite Dec 16-18 and then offsite the rest of our trip. I've been able to make FP reservations for Dec 17-19, but the rest of my ticket days have not opened up yet. I thought I would be able to make the remaining FP selections a day at a time, starting with 12/20 this morning, but it still is only going through 12/19. Am I a day early? Or am I misunderstanding how his works?

You'll be able to book tomorrow

Thanks, wsssup!

I'll confer with @Cluelyss to add this booking info to the FP FAQ Addendum.

No problem.

We also had no worries with selections from the 18th of December to the 1st of January. 7DMT and FEA were always available with plenty of time variations.

I apologize if this has been asked before(I did run a search) Can more than one person be logged in to an account to set FP up for different days at the same time ? Thinking that if my son and I both log in and start reserving FP for different days we will be more likely to get exactly what we want. TIA

Yes. Some people use different browsers to access the website. Or, one can use a computer and the other the app on a phone

I apologize if this has been asked and answered, but I didn't have time to read all the pages. I'm traveling in February and staying 2 nights onsite and 8 offsite. So I understand that I can make FPs for days 3-10 exactly 60 days out from those dates.

But I'm also traveling with family who are only arriving for the offsite portion of the stay so we want to coordinate FP times. So I'm wondering how does it work with the linked MDE accounts? If they are on my friends and family list can I book for them at 60 days? Is there some kind of special setting to make this happen? Does it complicate matters that some of them are AP holders and some are not?

Also, somewhat unrelated, but if I have purchased 6 day tickets but now need 7 days can I upgrade over the phone? Or do I need to wait and do it in person? Just want to figure out which day I'll have to forfeit FP for if I need to wait to upgrade.

Yes, you can book for them. Book as a group and include at least one onsite person with the offsite people.

Your SWA ticket can only be upgraded at a Ticket Window or Guest Relations. Most people leave their AK day free of FPs and as soon as they add on the day, they book FPs for AK.

My 17 year old daughter is coming up on her fp booking window. She is traveling with a friend who is 18. She is going to link their tickets today to her mde. She had problems booking adrs because she wasn't an adult. Will she have the same trouble booking their advance fast passes through her mde?

She'll be fine. FPs are based on ticket entitlements and anyone over the age of 7 can ride alone.

Thank you!

Since I am doing a 2 day parkhopper and going to 2 parks each day, would I be able to choose fast passes (60 days in advance since I am staying at a Disney hotel) for both parks? For example if I am going to MK and AK in one day, can I choose fast passes for both parks? What would be the limit? I looked over the FAQs and didnt really understand it. Thanks!

If you have a one-night hotel room but a 5-day park ticket, can you make 5 days of FPs at 60 days or only one?

It's best described by @ckelly14:

Many people book a throwaway room for just one night. They gain FP+ reservation privileges 60 days prior to check-in, and can make FP+'s for both the check-in and check-out day. However, there is a little "glitch" in the systems that allows you to make reservations for the rest of your offsite stay, on a rolling basis, one day at a time, 60 days out, up to the length of your ticket.

For example, let's say I'm staying off-site for a fun Halloween treat from October 24-31 of this year. I book a throwaway room for the night of October 24th at All-Star Sports. Tomorrow, 8/25, I will be able to book FP+'s for October 24 and 25, my throwaway room check-in and check-out day, but not the rest of the week. On 8/27, I will be able to book for 10/26, on 8/28 for 10/27, etc., on a rolling basis for the length of my ticket.

The important word here is GLITCH. Right now it's in the system. If Disney decides that this is not beneficial for their bottom line, it will go away.
Since it costs money to fix glitches, they probably won't bother with it for a while.
