Help with large group/fp+ etc.

I get to plan another trip! Super excited to be heading back to WDW with my extended family. Group includes Grandma, Grandpa, two adult children and their spouses, and seven children (ages 15,13,12,10,4,2,9 months).

Planning to fly in, stay on property, late February trip.

Im still a little muddy on the FP thing. We went with my family in Jan (the 15 and 12 year old), so I understand how it works for a small family. But with this large group, older children will want to be together on fast rides. Preschoolers will want to be on family rides with the grandparents. Parents will be riding with children that are not their own.

If I book us all together, and set up our initial fast passes together from home, how does it work once we get there? Can I, from the My Disney Experience app, find a new fastpass for myself and my nephew? Can my mom find one for her and a grandchild? Can two cousins find one together?

Lastly, how does it work for the 2 year old and the baby? I know they dont need a park ticket. Do they need a fastpass? Do they need a wristband?

Thanks all! I am so so so happy to be planning another trip and be able to post back here. The disboards are a great group of people!

Give those who know how to book FPs your MDX login ID and each small group can book their own FPs when in the parks.

Anyone under 3 does not need FPs because they don’t have tickets. They ride with adults if they meet the height requirements.

Thank you!! Why didn't I think of just sharing the same account... Brilliant! So multiple devices can be on the MDE at one time?

Thanks again.

Yes.
