FP+ booking question

[mommy-3]

We have a 6 night reservation at a Disney resort and 4 park days. I know that we can book fast passes at 60 days.
My question is... My dad and his girlfriend will be joining us for a day at magic kingdom. If we are linked on MDE can I book their fast passes at 60 days or do I have to wait till 30? They are Florida residents and will be driving in for the day.
Thank you!

30 days for them. Best hope is to beable to book theres in the same hour window so you all can ride.

You should be able to make them at 60 days for them. I was able to for my aunt/uncle when I stayed on site and they were offsite.

This is incorrect

Thank you for all the replies. What had me confused was the CM that I talked to on the phone told me 30 days. I knew you guys would know the correct answer!

Never trust anything a phone CM says

If they are not on the resort reservation they cant book 60 days out.. so everyone else is 30 no?

No.

Since they're linked on MDE, they can all book at the same time
