FP + Confusion

[HLAuburn]

I'm trying to help my sister plan her short trip in April but I don't understand how the new (to me) FP + deal works. She has a resort res at WL (room only). They are only going to MK one day. When she logs on to MDE and tries to sign up for FP, it says she needs tickets. When she adds tickets, it looks like it makes it package and asks for payment in full - which they aren't ready to do.

Is there a way to get JUST tickets (plus the exisiting resort res) in order to book the FP before they go?

Thanks!

She needs to buy tickets as Will Call and then link the ticket Confirmation numbers to her MDE account:
https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/tickets/

If she's within 45 days (which she probably is if she is going in April) then it's a package and it would need to be paid in full.

Can she buy a ticket NOT logged into MDE?

Another option is buying a ticket from somewhere else (like undercover tourist).

Yes, anyone can purchase tickets online - it doesn't have to be through MDE. She can also call Ticketing directly rather than a resort reservation CM.

She can buy the tickets separately and link them to here MDE account. But she will have to pay for the tickets in full at the time of purchase.
