If only 2 FP's have been selected there is no need to Modify the tier 1. Just do a normal search. It will still show Tier 1 FP's and overlapping times. If 3 FP's have been selected then you have to modify.

Correct. The message shows as “already selected an experience” and gives the option of “Select a Different Experience.”

When chosen, available Tier 1s then show up.

Here's an example. I just went in and made a tier 1 and a tier 2 FP for today at Epcot. When I go to add a 3rd FP it will say that I have already selected from that tier but you can click on it to see other options in tier 1.

Thanks, @JETSDAD! I wasn’t in the mood to screenshot.

If anyone is interested, FEA is available a week from today!

Thank you for all this helpful information! So, should I toss my TOT fp so I can see all available times and not be "blocking" 12:05-1:05 from showing?

 

[JETSDAD]

It won't block you from seeing the FP available but it will block you from being able to select it. The system can't handle deleting 2 FP's for 1 so if a FP showed up for SDD for 12:30 let's say, you could click on it but it would ultimately error because it would have to drop your other Tier 1 and TOT in order to add SDD. So yes, that would be sooooo frustrating to see SDD for 12:30 and not be able to grab it lol

Sorry if this has been asked, but I wasn't seeing it. If I have a room only Disney hotel reservation and separately purchased tickets bought after Oct 16th (so date based tickets), I am wondering when my fastpass booking would open in the following example. If I have a room reservation for February 16th but my ticket date selected when purchasing tickets is February 17th, would my 60 days be from the first day of the reservation or the first day of the ticket start date?

Your window opens based on the actual room reservation, BUT, you’ll be restricted to booking FPs within the valid ticket timeframe.

Question about anytime fp's...I have some anytime fp's being added to my account due to guest recovery. I've read that these can come with or without restrictions, depending on what type they are. If they do have restrictions, what rides will be excluded at each park? I know I will be able to see them in my account once they go in but that could be several days while a CM works on an issue...was just curious if I could find out before then. Thanks!

Typically FOP, Navi, 7DMT, PP, FEA, AS2, & SDD would be exclusions if there are any.

I have a possibly weird question. Is it possible to swipe your magic band to “use” a FP but not actually go on the attraction?

I ask because I intentionally booked an early (9:10) Living with the Land with no intention actually doing it. Planning on rope dropping Soarin’ and then hitting the character spot. Since LWTL is right near Soarin’ I was hoping I could swipe my band to burn the FP just so I can move my other ones up, but not actually go on the ride.

 

[hiroMYhero]

Yes. Most posters who report doing that refer to it as “tapping out” or “tap and go.”

Excellent! Thank you for the info.

Which one would you schedule a 3rd fp+ for at HS? Frozen Sing-a-long, Muppets 3D or Beauty and the Beast? We already have Tower of Terror and don't care to do RnR or Star Wars. Would we have to have "used" a 3rd one before trying to get another ToT that day? Thanks!

 

[hiroMYhero]

Would we have to have "used" a 3rd one before trying to get another ToT that day?

Yes. Just choose the earliest of any other Tier2 Attractions and use them or tap out.

Do you have to actually "tap out" or "use them" or can I just let the window lapse?

i.e. if I book Spaceship Earth @ 9am, Nemo @ 10am and Test Track @ 11am, can I just skip the first 2, ride test track and then be eligible for a tier 1 "fourth FP"? (Or do I actually need to tap out or ride those first 2)

It is supposed to work that way but they don't always fall off after they have expired. Tapping them ensures they have been used.

Follow up thought...I assume it's necessary to book 2 and "tap out" vs. only booking 1 FP for the day at Test Track, right? OR if I only booked Test Track and no others, once I use TT will it let me select a Tier 1 again?

EDIT: oops - I guess that is in the initial posts. Just found my answer.

If you’re in the park, it’s best to tap out so the system deletes the FP. Some posters have reported that “expired” FPs sometimes don’t “drop” out of the system.

What you could do is tap out SE, move up Nemo and tap that, and then TT.

Faster would be to FP TT, move up SE and tap out, move up Nemo and tap out and then book FP#4. You could possibly be booking #4 by 10:00ish rather than waiting until you enter TT at 11:00.

Haha - I like the thinking there, but my plan for the day is I actually want to ride TT at 11am, lol!
