My FP night is tomorrow at midnight (i.e. Wed at 12am). I know the time is supposed to open at midnight so I will ensure I am ready at 11:50Pm (I'm in same timezone as Florida). But I've heard some say that it sometimes doesn't open until 1am. Does that still happen or was that a glitch back a few months ago?

My night was last night and opened on time at 11 CDT. How it actually went, well, a new thread.

1. But I've heard some say that it sometimes doesn't open until 1am.

2. Does that still happen

3. or was that a glitch back a few months ago?

1. Correct.

2. I've not seen it reported within the last week, or so.

3. The nature of a glitch is that it can show up unexpectedly.
If (IF) your window does not open between 12:00 and 12:15AM ET, then you might want to try again about 1:00AM.
 
hello I will be there right with you tomorrow. yay for trips that start on october 19th.:cheer2:. since you are in the same time zone you are going to want to be at your computer a little before 12am. I think most of the peole that were haveing issues wernt putting the time zone into account. since i live in mn I will be at my computer by 11pm since im an hour behind florida.
 

FP+ unlocked at midnight for me. Wishing you luck for yours!
 
Thanks for the replies. Here's hoping it's at midnight and not later. I'm not a night owl so I plan on going to bed as normal at 10pm (leaving my pc on) and then will set my alarm for 11:45pm. Hope it works at midnight and doesn't take too long as I'm up again at 5:30am for work. :surfweb:

Yah....Great date to arrive. :goodvibes Oct 19th doesn't seem too far away anymore. Lucky you can sign in at 11pm in your timezone. Good luck with your FP selection.

I did the same thing this morning! (we arrive in the 17th) Lots of caffeine to get through the day! FP+ opened right at midnight for me too, I hope your FP+ selections go smoothly.
 
Came up at exactly midnight. Got everything I wanted. Heading to bed. Good night!
 
Mine was available right at midnight too. Got what I wanted too. :)

Good Night!
 
Thanks for the replies. Sounds like recently it's been working at midnight so fingers crossed for tonight.
 
Thanks for making this post - Now I know that here in PA, I need to get on the computer just before midnight on my day (9/16).

I have been told though that I will only be able to do one day of my trip, is this accurate? I have a 15 day trip :(

Guests staying at a WDW RESORT can make up to 10 days of FP+ reservations starting 60 days from check-in.
Those with an Annual Pass can make then make unlimited number of day's FP+ following the 60-day mark
for the duration of the WDW Resort stay.

Guests NOT staying at a WDW RESORT can FP+ reservations one-day-at-a-time, each 30 days from the day in question.

I have yet to learn if guests with UK 15-day or 24-day tickets can make FP+ past the original 10-day limit
at any one time on the same 60-day before date.

Wow...I knew offsite guests have to wait for 30 day mark but didn't realize it is one day at a time. Disney really is doign everything to encourage onsite stay (we are onsite so ok for us, but sucks for those that are not).
