FP+ Booking problems and questions...

[BryANDJessMom]

Hi! I started booking my FP for my stay on Sunday. (I am staying on-property June 20-22 and then again June 25-27.) anyway, I was using the app on my ipad. No problem booking Saturday, June 21 FP's on Sunday night. But the next night the Sunday, June 22 didn't open. Still not open on my MDE app, I had to end up going to the website (and calling Disney) to reserve them. Anybody else have problems with the window for your FP not opening?

I cannot book for the days now that I am offsite, although, it looks like I can book ANY day up through June 22...even though I am only on property for those two nights. Does that mean my offsite nights will open up when my next reservation does? (For June 23 and 24)

Hope this makes sense!

(Btw, I all ready looked through the large FP + thread and did not see the answers to these questions.)

Thanks in advance!
Nancy

Have not been, since the new FP's. But, it seems to me, I would like it better if Disney did away with the tiers, and just let people get 3 FP's to any attractions in the park for the day(maybe even 2 max. per one ride).

Trying to be optimistic about FP+....I was at DL last week and the old system still works very well for me...so much planning for WDW!

We are looking forward to the trip though!

Anybody know about the problems with MDE? Or, if I will be able to book the offsite days that are between my on-site dates?

Hi, I started booking mine over the weekend as well and it let me book up to a point but since then, I have had to wait for each day to open up one at a time (kind of like the ADR's). I would have called, but had no problems so far getting whatever I wanted and changing the times doing it this way so I can't offer you any additional information. FWIW, each new day, my window doesn't open up at midnight but an hour to 8 hours later. I could be more concerned, but have been very successful so I've just left it hoping that tomorrow and Friday allow me to book my last two days the same way.

I suspect there are changes afoot. These oddities usually occur when they are tweaking the site so perhaps hopping and the additional rolling FP's are about to become an option soon.

Hi! Yep, i found the website had the window opening up before MDE app. When I called Disney they said it should open up between midnight- 1 am.

I hope the fourth FP is added soon! That would be great!
