Linking reservation non Dis and Dis resort

[Louis morrell]

Asking here before I spend 45 min on the phone with Disney . I have a 1 night reservation at the Hilton next to Disney Springs on 6/1and will begin my Disney Animal Kingdom Villas stay on 6/2 - 6/7. Can I link these reservations? If so will that open my fastpass window 60 days before 6/1?
This is how we normaly travel but I never considered the posibility of linking the reservations. Now that Disney offere 60 day fastpass windows to these hotels i wonder if this OK,.

From my understanding, your FP 60 day window won't open till your AK Villa stay. Is the Hilton on Disney Springs property and a part of the Walt Disney World perks? Then yes, your 60 day window would open from that reservation.

Yes, they are part on the group of Springs area hotels that have the 60 day fast pass and extra magic hour perks.

Then absolutely yes! Because there are no gaps in your split stay, you'll have what's called a rolling window.

Well here is the answer from Disney.
Thank you for your patience while I was researching, David. Passed on the information I was able to find out from my support teams, you would be able to book FastPass+ selections 60 days in advance for the stay at Hilton if, and only if, the reservation was booked through Disney Reservation Center and you had been provided with a 12 digit reservation number beginning with 4.

So yes you can but only if you book through Disney
We did not.
Oh well no big deal.

Always take any info you get from Disney with a grain of salt. I would call whoever you booked the hotel through and see if they can give you the reservation number
