FastPass+ FAQ — SERVICE SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

[jenkel]

You can book FPs for a day that you're going to the party, but FPs are not available during party hours. If it's the same as last year, you would be able to book 3:30-4:30, 4:30-5:30, and 5:30-6:30. (You wouldn't be able to enter the park prior to 4:00 with just a party ticket, so you'd actually only have a half hour window for the first FP.[/

So I can only use fp m between 4-7. Can those be booked at the 60 day mark like my other fp. Or are these sdfp?

A co-worker recently told me that with the FP+ system once you use your 1st fp you can schedule your fourth. Is that correct, or do we still need to wait until we've used all 3 of the original? And if I missed this in the intro stuff, I apologize. I did look there first and it states that you have to use up the 3 first--just wondering if there was a new change. Thanks.

Your coworker is mistaken - you must use (or let expire) your first 3 before you can schedule your 4th.

You can book at the 60 day mark if you are on property.

You are still limited to 3 FP per day, though, so cannot book at another park in the morning if you want to book at MK on your party ticket in the evening.

Thanks for clarifying!

FWIW - we just returned from WDW and we were able to use our fps for 7DMT and Soace Mountain at least a 1/2 hour after they had expired.

Had the rides been down earlier in the day?

No. We had just been late getting to the park. We were really glad that they let us use our expired fps. The fp touch posts turned green, too.

Interesting! I probably wouldn't have even tried after 15. That's helpful to know.

I'm a bit confused. I thought the 7 day fast pass limit didn't apply if you were on property? Or am I just limited, regardless since I have an AP? We are there for 10 days, first off property, then on property. My 60 days was yesterday for on property. I tried to do it for a couple days before to see if I could. Oddly, I was NOT able to book anything for myself , but I WAS able to book for my 7 year old (he has a 10 day park hopper) I was able to book another day offsite as well even though we are not in the 30 day window.

Now what? Can I, since I have an AP NOT do any fast passes prior to staying onsite since I booked my onsite fast passes? Or will I have more options 30 days out?

Can you start making FP's at 6 am if you do it online or is it all done at 7?

 

[cgh]

Okay, I chatted with Disney. Apparently, yes, APs are capped at 7 but if you are staying at a resort you can call the internet help desk and they can grant you fast passes to match your party IF you are staying on site.

7 am EST

Hello ....I read the first post but,sorry
Just want to be 100% sure. Now you make fastpass selections at 7 am.on the 60 day Mark (we are staying on property. With a room .ticket package) Not midnight like it use to be
Thanks

Correct.

 

[old feller]

so we aren't going til Sept 3 and are staying offsite so I know I can only book 30 days out... but I went to FP+ just to get an idea of what kind of openings there are 30 days out etc.. the only day that it would even let me look at was July 1st... nothing before nothing after? oh and we are passholders... does that meen there is nothing available all the other days within the next 30 days or is it a glitch?

How do you check future fastpass availability. Every time I try thru MDE is says I am locked out til my 60 day Mark. Thanks

If your tickets are part of a package, you won't be able to access FP booking until your 60 day window opens.

Tickets purchased separately will have a rolling 30-day window once linked in MDX.

Take what Disney CMs tell you with a grain of salt.
We are staying onsite, with AP, changing resort 5 times for 16 days and I was told that because we have a multi split onsite stay we would only get FP for the first 7 days. Once my 60 day window opened I could make FPs for 15 days no problem. I then had to wait one more day for day 16. It was easy, but the persons I had communicated with first were all wrong.

I appokigize for asking- but I have read the info. Threads and am still confused. I know you can't book a fourth FP until you have used the first three- but what if you don't use the first two. For example- I booked FAE for noon. I booked Nemo and figment for 9 and 10 am respectively. If I don't use the nemo and figment fps- after I actually use the FAE fast pass- would I be able to book a fourth FP at MM or will I still be limited to Epcott since I truest didn't "use" them? To that same extent- if I just book FAE at Epcott- can I then make FP's at MK - it didn't seem like this is the case from the sticky thread
