FP Success!

[leebee]

We are going to WDW for ONE DAY, so DH can see Pandora and then we'll hop over to Epcot. I made my FP this morning, at 60+3. There were PLENTY of openings for FoP at 7:02am. I was pumped... after all, I am making plans for 12/24, Christmas Eve! I didn't think we'd get anything, but we got everything we wanted at AK- FoP, Safari, FotLK- at the times I wanted. I'm PSYCHED!!

How'd you do it at 60+3 if you are only there for one day? Confused.....

We are staying at a Disney Springs hotel that is an "Official Walt Disney World Hotel." The 60 days counts from your check in day (12/21), not the day on my park ticket (12/24). I thought I'd have to wait until today to make my FP, but was tipped off by someone on the ticket sticky to try early, try 60 days before check-in... and it worked!

I also just managed to shift my Candlelight Processional package so we can go to the 8:15 show instead of the 6:45... and it means our meal reservation time is only 10 minutes later than the one for the 6:45 show, so it still works with all FP plans! I'm feeling very lucky about all this!

Got it, that's what I figured once I thought about it -- 1 day ticket w/a stay longer than that. Glad you got what you wanted. We do our FPs tomorrow morning for Dec 25-31, no idea what to expect with availability. However today I did manage to snag a California Grill at opening (2:30p) on Christmas Day, so happy about that one.
