If Wishes FP+ become available....

[cgattis]

....after I've already chosen 3 FP+, how do I find them? Do I start with "Select or Replace," see if they're there, then choose it? Or do I start with "Change?" I only want to change IF they're available. I definitely don't want to accidentally blow away what I already have! I'm sure this has been asked and answered numerous times, but I'm evidently inept with the search feature on a mobile . Sorry. Thanks for any help!!

Well, I'm INCREDIBLY technically challenged,so this is what I do.
I go through the "change experience " way until I get to where the available activities list comes up. If you click the "change time" button, you don't get the complete list of available rides/attractions. When I click the " change experience" button, the list of available activities pops up and if I see what I want,I just follow through with the change.
If I don't see what I'm looking for,well,here's where my inexperience comes in. I DON'T click on the "cancel" button because I'm so afraid of something disappearing. So I just go to my upper left corner computer "go back" arrow, and back flip through the pages until I end up where I started. So far I haven't had one issue with losing any current FP's. I've done this MANY times and so far,so good.

Change the TIME of one of your already-made FP+ to near the start-time of Wishes.
That way, if Wishes FP+ does become available, it will show up as a choice for you at that TIME.

So do it under the "Change" page...? Then change the time for one of them. Then do I have to go back to the "Replace" page to see if Wishes is there for me to replace it with?

First use the Select screens to see if its even loaded into the system yet but dont confirm anything or you will lose your selections

If its in there, Try to Change the Time of one to the time of Wishes
Then go back to the beginning and try to Change the Experience to Wishes

If it doesnt work, then you have to use Select and start all over. You wont lose your other selections until you confirm.

Its crazy stupid how they have it set up, that you cant change both the time and experience at the same time, for one FP.

Wow. What a nonsensical amount of hoops to jump through.

Yep. And if they would load everything at 60 days, then it would also be a lot easier for everyone...

So dumb question, but are their FP for the fireworks then? I am so confused. Trying to plan a trip and July but so much has changed I can't keep up! Thanks.

Separate FP+ choices for Wishes, MSEP at MK & IlluiNations at Epcot.
Those choices for July will likely not show up until 10 days, give or take, before the actual dates.

Thank you. Is there a big sticky somewhere to read all about the new changes and FP+? Or some other resource to go to? I have been trying to catch up on the boards but I feel really far behind and overwhelmed with this trip. Thank you!

The info changes in some significant way about every 10 days, or so.
No, I'm not kidding.

Has anyone been able to get fastpasses for MSEP for the first week of Feb. yet?

When I did this for my recent trip I always went through the "Select or Replace" screen. It was far easier than using the "Change" option.

Just go through the motions of choosing three new FP+s and you will see if MSEP or Wishes are available. If they are not, just close the window and your original choices will remain. If they are, you can replace your original choices with the new ones. If any of the times aren't exactly what you want you can change them afterwards.

Which is why, even if I have to scroll past fifty posts I don't want to read right now, I'm thrilled that so many DIS'ers come on to report the state of the band regularly! THANKS to you and to everyone who brings info to try to help folks thru their first use!!
