How can offsite guests make FP+ reservations?

[leebee]

Hi, I am asking for a friend who is taking her family to WDW in April (over school break, which is also Easter week!) and is staying offsite in their timeshare. How can she make FP+ reservations for her family? Will she need to buy tickets from Disney or can she use tickets from UT or AAA?

I am assuming that she will need to (1) Purchase her tickets; (2) set up a MDE account; (3) link her tickets to the account, and (4) pick her FP+ choices at 30 days out. Does anyone know if this is correct- or what would the correct process be?

Tickets from UT or AAA are from Disney, so she can buy them from either of those places if she wants. Otherwise, you have everything else correct, except that people staying offsite can't start booking FP+ in advance until March 31, which is less than 30 days before Easter.

Thanks. I know that UT/AAA tickets ARE from Disney but they are purchased elsewhere; she was wondering if she'd have to purchase from Disney directly. Thanks for your quick response!
