June 1st trip = Fast pass success!

[Boopuff]

Well, I did it. I was able to make FP selections for my June 1 trip. And many "top tier" were unavailable at 6+ I did snag SSD, MFSR so I was very pleased. I did not get FOP or the new MMRR. I'm staying positive that our trip will materialize.

Try splitting up your fastpasses into different groups of people. So, for example, search with only 3 people for a FoP and then search with the other 3 people and try to get a time that overlaps. I did that to get a group of 9 FoP fastpasses

 

[Boopuff]

Good idea! My main goal was to get MFSR. My DD is very happy with that.

I booked mine today too. I think they have reduced the number of FP+ available. I was able to get some of the top tier's, but it definitely felt like less availability given the times that were left for me to choose from. I'm going to go hoping that the parks aren't too crowded and we can do some stand-by rides without a ton of wait time.

I'm so happy to hear that there is some optimism about being able to travel in early June! We are arriving 6/8 so I have my alarm set for FB selection in a few days!

 

[Boopuff]

I’m always optimistic about my trip!

Did anyone snag Big Thunder? That was the only one I was planning on and didn’t get despite trying 3 days. I can’t find anything saying it’s down for refurb. I had a glitch this morning and it took me an extra couple minutes to get started and by the time I hit all the hard to gets and started working on my 2nd choices, I couldn’t get it.

Big Thunder is scheduled for a 3 week refurb in May, maybe that's been rescheduled?

I was able to get it for our last day on the 7th. I think they must not be releasing as many for some reason.

I was a little shocked at the difficulty I had making fastpasses. A lot of the ones I get early morning weren’t available until the afternoon. I agree, it seems like they have released fewer fastpasses overall.

I was really hoping FPs would be available for SSE, but they weren’t.

This was definitely that hardest fastpass day I’ve ever had. I managed to get everything other than Big Thunder, but I can usual stack my Fastpasses to be done by noon with the exception of FOP and 7 dwarves, but I have a lot if afternoon ones this time

Same here.

Our dates are May 31 - June 6. Fast pass day was yesterday. We got everything we wanted; MMRR wasn't til 6:55, but no biggie. My heart is holding out hope - my head . . . not so much.
I read where people didn't see much for May 31. I looked today and saw quite a few. I took screenshots and sent them to my colleague to prove I wasn't crazy because she wasn't having any luck.
We rented DVC points, so we have to decide by mid-April what to do in order to minimize our loss.

I did see Big Thunder, but my DD preferred Splash (it was down for refurb on our last trip) so we opted for SM. Didn't see any availability for 7DMT. Interestingly, PP, JC and POC were all available. We stay late as possible in the parks, so we often ride the really popular rides at zero hour.

 

[DizDaD7]

This is exciting, & I'm glad that you all got a glimmer of hope...Here's to this virus peaking & ending sooner than later, and some mid - late May vacays still make it..

 

[MickeyEars]

I make ours on the 9th. I so hope the Parks are open!!

That’s our Go To as well. We ride a lot of fantasyland right after fireworks and then do Tomorrowland in the dark. I’ve never done Big a Thunder at night, but if it’s what I have to do

Congrats ! I purposely bought the three of us new bathing suits last week as good luck charms ! Trip supposed to be July 14

 

[Ariel 1715]

It is nice to see some optimism on this post. I am keeping my fingers crossed for all your June dates

 

[Disneypro1]

Great news. Got to get back to living. June sounds long enough of this shutting down stuff. . Glad to hear you got selections. I’d love to go then. Probably have to wait till fall. Due to work.
