FP+ and offsite/onsite split stays question - recent experience?

[letsgoreds]

I am planning a trip in 3 months and wondering where things stand on FP+ in relation to those who stay onsite and then move offiste. I am looking at DVC rental for the first part of the trip followed by a week at BC. I am buying 10 day passes and linking them on MDE. Will I be able to book 10 days of FP+ or only the 5 at the start of my stay?

Thanks!

We are doing a split stay. We are doing 4 days on property and 7 days off property. I can only work with dining reservations for on property days. I am assuming it will be the same for FP+. I'm hoping for a change in FP+ before the end of August but I'm not holding my breath.

With that said, we plan to do what we can do and it is what it is. We were going to do annual passes but have decided to hold off to see how this trip is. If we don't have a good time, we won't be back until everything is "fixed".

We are usually die hard on site people but we needed more room this time since my mother in law is traveling with us. We got a 3 bedroom for 7 nights for $850.00. You cannot beat that.

could you clarify what you mean about only working with dining reservations for your property days?? I am reading that as to say you can only make dining reservations for your onstay part?
Anyone can make ADR's 180 days from each day for offsite. you just can't make them with the 180+10

Hopefully by August everyone will be able to make advance fp+

By BC, do you mean Bonnet Creek?

Any others?

Doing a split stay, 4 nights on property, 9 nights off. Was able to do ADR's 180 + 10 by calling in. My 60 day mark for FP + will start this Friday. I am hoping that I can book FP+ for my off site days, but I do think it is a long shot. Once I see if it is possible I will post.
Keeping my fingers crossed.

Just booked all my FP+ for my on site days. At 60 days out I was also able to book for the next four days, but could not book anything for when I will be off site.

you need to wait until 60 days out for EACH of your offsite days, day by day.. you then should be able to book.. try again in a few days.
