Going to try for Anna and Elsa FP+ tonight at midnight Help please

[blessedby3]

I am going to try to get a FP+ for Anna and Elsa tonight at midnight. Can anyone tell me what I need to have done right before midnight…or what screen I should be on at that point? This whole FP+ thing confuses me anyway (or booking them at least).
We have 5 people. Is it easier to get a FP+ if I have fewer people? Just wondering what others strategies were for scoring one.
Thanks

Log into MDE. Then select the fast pass plus selection screen and keep hitting refresh. Get ready and go! It's really not that difficult. However for A and E sometimes it is easier to get a fp for one person and then copy to other people in your group. The other thing I recommend is that it may be easier to get a fp for a and e towards the end of your trip. Good luck!

[FONT=&quot]Game On!!!! I will be on wi[/FONT]th you trying to Anna and Elsa as well. We are there for 10 full days though so my strategy is to try towards the end of the trip.

I'd say to make sure that you don't have any other fast passes during the ideal time for your A & E FP. I took the closest that I could get, but it wasn't as earily was I wanted it. After I realized that I should me the times for the other FPs that day so that they weren't close to my ideal time, bunch of A & E times opened up and I was able to get one closer to the time I was hoping for.

I booked for A&E FP+ last week for our June trip and didn't get our FP+ until the last day. We had our account and reservation all linked and pre-registered.

We have a party of 4, but decided to reserve for 2 instead. I'm not sure if it made it easier.

I booked a few days ago and I couldn't find any times for the first 6 days of our trip, so definitely try towards the end. Also it wouldn't let me book for more than 4 people in one time slot. So, you would probably be okay to do 4 people and then copy to the fifth, but know that the fifth person will have a different time slot (our times are only 5 minutes different, so no biggie)...just make sure if you are copying that it is putting you in time slots that are close enough together for everyone to go in at the same time (remember the time slot you are in when you go to copy the FP).

"cyber" rope drop doesn't sound nearly as much fun as regular rope drop. At least when I was walking quickly towards that coveted FP, I was getting my cardio!

Thanks for the help. This FP+ is towards the end of our trip. Our other 2 MK days have nothing available (we have 10 day base tickets). I am trying to get one for June 18th. We also have an 8am CP reservation, so I told DH that if I can't get a FP+ that he will have to leave the CP and sprint ahead of the incoming guests:good vibes I had to do that a few years ago with Rapunzel. I left the CP and was booking it to the meet and greet while I looked behind me there were tons of dads running for the same line. It will be DH's turn to do that if I can't get the FP

We got our Anna/Elsa FP without a problem. I read about the FP opening up for them on another site, and then forgot about it for the day. The next day I remembered and in a PANIC I got on to book them and had my choice of time and days. We also had good luck years ago on our first trip when I had no idea that CRT was so popular...called not long before our trip and scored breakfast before MK opened!! Good Luck!!

My FP widow opened this morning at midnight so I just did this. I had no problem getting it. I did not try for my first MK day - I looked for a day late in my trip and could get the FP for any time I wanted for multiple days. We are also a party of five so I got a FP for me and then copied it to the rest of my family. Good luck!

Lol! You're lucky you didn't experience the half mile sprint through Epcot at rope drop just to grab a place in line! That was cardio!! We were first in line at the turnstiles, but being the only adult with 3 of my kids we ended up about 20th in line for A&E. Only about a 50 minute wait.

Im not sure, but I think I am in a different boat than some of you guys. I only have a 2 day reservation at AOA, but a 10 day ticket. This window is after my stay (and during my off site stay) and I can only see one day at a time at this point. It isn't like I can see 7 or 8 days and go from there. I can only plan FP+ one day at a time. Hoping for the best, though.

I was only able to get FP+ for me, not my DS. And it won't let me copy. Anyone know if it will let me copy closer to the date? I try every day, but no luck yet.

That is so frustrating! I don't know the answer, but I am so tired of so much planning 2 months out.
It used to be fun to plan what park we would go to on what day, but now that I have to figure out what time we want to ride a certain ride on those days as well…it is not so much fun anymore. I hope our trip is more fun than I am feeling right now.

Well, so much for that I got on and was ready at midnight…and it says Standby only. Crazy! Guess my DH will have to do the sprint or DD won't get to have a meet and greet. Going to bed now

What? For all your days?

I am only able to book one day at a time. Im not sure if that is because I only have a 2 day ressie, but a 10 day ticket. I can only see one new day to book each day. This is our 3rd MK day (June 18) and we may have one more…but I can't book June 19th till tomorrow. We are there through the 20th.
I even tried just booking one of us…no go
