Hey October fast pass people...how are the pickings???

[jimandami]

I forgot to ask, it showed that Splash Mountain wasn't available to book fastpasses for. Anyone know why?

Splash is going down for refurbishment

I'm hoping to get FOP but it is on day 2 of our trip so probably won't. I just really need to get it for my fiance and his friend since they are coming later than everyone else and my group would just stand bye wait for it since a group of 5 can manage the long wait playing games and stuff.

I am nervous about FoP passes. 3:30, that happened to my friend too, she grabbed it to at least have something. Rope drop looks difficult, from some stories I have read. I have a WC in my party. I guess I could run ahead of them and they could join me, with me explaining to the people behind me about the WC not being able to keep up.

We are going in the beginning of Oct. I only booked FoP for 2 people (going 6 days, AK is our 4th day), had no problem and had at least 10 options.

No FOP for me Sept 30-Oct 2. Hoping for better luck when Thanksgiving opens up and I have more days to play with.

My TA was able to get FOP for our 4th day.

I was afraid of that.

Hey! Is your name Ami?

I was wondering about FoP and party size. We have to do child swap for our baby anyway so I'm hoping to try to at least just get one FoP FP, then can take eldest DS on with the swap pass.

ETA: We only have 3 park days and AK is our day 2, so I'm not feeling optimistic.

I booked on Tuesday. First time through I got everything except day 1 mine train. The other people didn't have their tickets linked. Once that was fixed it wasn't--one ticket wouldn't link. Making fP for 2, we got everything, including the mine train that wasn't available before. FOP was much later than I wanted, but I got it. Third person was linked with a ticket on one MDE and with a room on another MDE. Wonderful CM merged the two, added him to all the FPs, and everything worked fine. I still think it was easier with the old FP, but I'm going to use the tools Disney lets me.

We are a party of 6 and I was able to get what I wanted for all of us.

Yes, why?

 

[TNGirlwCamera]

Yes, why?

Because I'm Ami too!! I rarely see our name spelled with an I much less get to actually speak to someone with the same name!

Gotcha!! I've only ever met another Ami. To make it more complex, my given name is Amanda but my parent always called me Ami.

Woohoo! Sounds good for our 2-people November trip! AK will probably be our 4th day, too.

 

[flortlebap]

4th day onwards was OK for us getting FOP for our trip this month (at 60 days) - day 8 onwards was virtually clear, I got a 9:30 FOP FP!

 

[momcloud]

Got everything I wanted. I had to book FOP on our last full day- but I purposely left it open for that reason.

 

[Farro]

Thanks for all the reports back everybody! 21 days until my turn!

You may be trying to pick two Tier I passes. You can only select Frozen, Test Track, Soarin, OR Illuminations. Your second and third choices must be a Tier 2 attraction.

Thanks that helps!

Thank you!

I did not get FOP at all for my beginning of October vacation and NRJ only in the afternoon. But I hope crowds are not too bad in October.
