fastpass frustrations

[hermione8]

Hi. I have a question about fastpass booking that I am having trouble finding an answer to. I booked a room res for nov 11-16 2016 at akl. I used a cm discount from my dd to book the room. I also purchased four day tickets. Because the tickets and the room res were purchased separately and not as a package, the website is showing that I'll be eligible to book fp+ 30 days prior. I spoke to a cm who told me that I had to book as a package to book 60 days prior. I then spoke to another cm who told me that was not true and because I had both room res and tickets I could book 60 days out, regardless of whether it was a package. I am confused as it looks like I will have to wait until 30 days according to the website. Anyone have any advice on this? Thanks.

If you go into My Disney Experience and link your tickets to your room reservation, I think you should be able to book at 60 days out. At least, I hope so, since we are doing the same thing (not a package deal, room booked separately from ticket purchase).

Is the reservation in your name or DD's name? That might affect things.

Have you linked the tickets to the hotel reservation? Looks like you're just slightly more than 60 days out. Fear not, I had the same thing happen. If you have linked tickets, at your 60 day window, you will be able to book FP+. I too have a room-only reservation and tickets from elsewhere. Mine showed up as a 30 day window as well, until my 60-day mark, then I was able do book FP+ with no problem!

Your 60 day booking window opens on 9/12/2016.

ETA: read resort stays dates incorrectly.

If your check in date is November 11th, your complete 60-day window opens 60 days prior to that date.

Thanks everyone. I do have the tickets and room res linked in mde. My booking window should be Sept. 11 right?
