FastPass+ FAQ — SERVICE SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

[marciemi]

You can reschedule a FP any time if unused.

Oh, I totally misread that question. Yeah, you could even reschedule before the window started.

another FP+ / magic band question... sorry if this has been asked and answered. we are going to WDW in just over a month. there are 5 of us. 4 adults 1 child age 5. 4 of us have Florida Res. silver passes from last year that are still valid. 1 adult has 4 day (voucher Florida Res) (this voucher is already connected to our party so when I am able to make our FP selections I will be able to book for him as well. my question is this... we have about 6 sets of magic bands . but none of them are 4 the 1 person with voucher. is there any way to deactivate one of our many magic bands and have it reactivated under his 4 day pass? or do we just need to wait til we get there and buy a new one?

You won't be able to assign one of your MB's to someone else.

You can wait until you get there or you can buy one online at the Disney store.

OK, I know that this has been covered, but I need to make sure. I am old, and I haven't been to Disneyworld in a long time...

Am taking my wife, daughter in law, and my 3 year old grand-daughter. All of the reservations are made under my name. Can I request different fp's within my party? for instance, book my little one and her mom to Under the Sea, Meet and Greet Mickey, and Peter Pan, while requesting my wife and I peter pan, 7dmt, and another?

thanks in advance.

Apologies if this has been answered somewhere but I can't sort out the FP booking window date for my group We're a group of 9 - two have a room only reservation for one night (a Thursday), then room and tickets beginning the next day (a Friday). The remaining 7 of us have room and tickets beginning that same Friday. Can I book fastpasses 60 days out from Thursday when two members of our party have a room only reservation or 60 days out from Friday when we all have tickets? Hopefully this isn't confusing! The travel dates are in October so our FP booking window opens in the next two weeks.

Thank you!

Friday for all. Those with RO will not have "active" tickets until 60 days prior to their package.

How come it will not let me modify my frozen reservation but it will allow me to do so for all my other fast pass plus choices???

There may not be any additional times available.

not sure how to word this. am choosing fp selections for Sept. because of the tiers at some parks DHS/EPCOT there really isn't 3 worth booking. I am not sure how it works say of FP. if you use or miss what you have already booked you may be able to book more? correct? so if we use our soarin' will it let us book test track afterwards? and if so do I need to make sure I book all 3 originals (even if we don't use one, so that it will let me book another from that tier)?

Yes, you need to book 3 and either use them or let them expire if you want to be able to book a second tier 1.

Oh, I totally misread that question. Yeah, you could even reschedule before the window started.

But the next FP that I would want to book would be another Tier 1, so I would need to let it expire. My check-in window is 4-4:15, the show starts at 4:30 and the next show is at 5:30. So I'm guessing it would expire at either 5 or 5:30?

A FP is "expired" once you are past the return window. So at 4:15.

Agree it should expire at 4:15 but really, that show is in the exact middle of the park. Might be a lot easier and quicker just to send someone to tap all the bands right at 4 and then you could book immediately then.

If you know you won't be using the FP and allowing it to expire, Modify the FP to a morning time so that you are able to look for another Tier 1 earlier in the day.

Another trip with us being able to book FP a day early.
We have a tentative trip planned for 10/9 through 10/14
60 days is tomorrow, that's when I can do online check in
But for a test I went in and tried and sure enough, I can book our FP today (8/9). For the entire trip.

Yay! Do you think it may be based on your AP versus what other non-APs have experienced? It's interesting why your onsite + AP combination triggers an early window.

Were you able to get a FEA FP at a good time?

Yes, there are plenty of FEA FP at the moment.
I'm not sure what triggers it quite honestly.
It may be that we've always had a 2nd, earlier trip scheduled too. I'm not positive of this but I think there have been 2 each time, since we've had trips of some sort just about monthly this year.
For instance, we have a trip from 8/26 to 8/29, which I have FP for
Our 2nd trip is 10/9 to 14. I tried yesterday just out of curiosity and I was not able to book FP for the Oct trip, it stopped at 60 days from yesterday
This morning, I got an alert from TP that I could make FP tomorrow so I figured, why not check and sure enough, 10/9 to 14 had opened up.

I think you're on to the fact that the "rolling 60-day" open window somehow leads into activating your new booking window for each "next" trip because they are always within that "rolling" window.

Now, you'll have to experiment during a month without 31 days.
