FP+ opens for me at midnight...

[lovin'fl]

...tick tock tick tock...going so slowly. Staying at SSR 3 nights and BWV for 2 nights. I hope I can make all 5 days of FP+ tonight at midnight. Anyway, I got my schedule planned out (what parks/when) and just have to make FP+ selections. It was easier a couple weeks ago when just DDs-15 and I were going but now my mom decided to join us and she's not a fan of big thrill rides (ie:big drop/loop roller coasters). So...what do I pick?

I will do 2 days at MK:
1-7DMT (will this be too much for her)
2-Buzz
3-Splash Mt
4-
5-
6-
**walk on People Mover

1 day at HS:
1- TSM
2- Star Tours
3- Great Movie Ride????
Is RnR a tier 1 like TSM? (my DDs would love to do RnR...could do single rider)

1 day at Epcot:
1- Soarin
2- Maelstrom
3- Spaceship Earth
**Hope to get 4th FP+ for or do single rider on Test Track

Going to AK at RD (or close to it) and hope to walk on:
1- EE (my DDs)
2- Safari
3- Kali River Rapids
Walk animal paths to dry off
Maybe see Tough to be a Bug

Will just watch parades/fireworks from anywhere...don't want to waste FP+ on these.

I have a question maybe you can answer-- my FP+ ALSO opens at midnight. We are 5 days at pop, 2 at BW. But I have an AP-- right now it's only showing me I can get FP+ for up to 30 days not 60. What's the deal?! Is it my annual messing me up?! I'm kind of panicking.

Do you have your hotel reservation # put in your MDE? If you have an AP. like I do as well, then you can book any day of the year at 30 days out (a limited # of days, not sure how many)...but if you are staying on resort, then you can book 60 days out from check in. It must not be connecting your resort resie for some reason. Let me go look at mine...I think last I looked it was showing I could book on 6/13...I will double check.

Okay...yesterday, I am pretty sure, the calendar showed I could book for 8/12-17 (but then wouldn't let me when I clicked it). Right now it's letting me book for the next 30 days only. I am hoping it's a glitch or I saw wrong yesterday (maybe I saw the July 12th and thought August 12th). I am hoping at midnight Aug 12th-17th will pop up...I think it will.

I hope so!!! I'm praying it's just buggy right now!!

Great Movie Ride is now Tier 1. No need to stay up to midnight for these.

You are not eligible for 60 days until tomorrow, that is when it will open up. It's not a glitch.

Didn't know the GMR was tier 1...boo.
Staying up to get 7DMT. I figure that one might be tough.

Good (that it will open at midnight...kinda thought we'd be okay)! Thanks!!

The Great Movie Ride is... tier ONE?! As in the same category as TSMM and RnR?

I guess I thought I'd see the 60 days from today's date-- but now I get it, it will only open up as synced with my hotel res. Thanks for the help!!

Not letting me book. Did online check in too.

There was a post on the theme parks board that it was not working at midnight, they said it came up in about 90 minutes.

I don't think you will have a problem with 7DMT. I tried a 30 day last week and it was still available.

Yeah, I was posting in the other thread. Got all my FP+ booked by 1:45. Got 7DMT.

Here's what I booked...was so tired and frustrated I could barely think (so I may go back and tweak):

MK- Day 1
Buzz, 7DMT and Peter Pan (haven't done PP in a while due to long waits but do we really need to do this one???)

MK- Day 2
Speedway (not a fan but my 2 DDs are), Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean....maybe I should switch something for Splash Mt??? and my DDs would like BTM (but my mom won't)

HS-
Toy Story Mania, Star Tours and wanted the GMR but it's now Tier 1 so I went with Muppets 3D...my DDs will want RnR too (they can do single rider)

Epcot-
9:15 Mission Space (may let expire...I won't go on but my DDs might), then 10:20 Spaceship Earth and 11:20 Soarin...hope to get 4th for Test Track or will do single rider.

AK- we will do RD and walk on rides.
