MaxPass / Digital Fastpass - Discussion Thread

[dec2009mama]

think I found the answer to #3!

it does, you can cancel FP you have booked thru MP and pick up other ones instead. its great that it is flexible if you change your mind throughout the day!

If you don't purchase Maxpass, but pull a Fastpass the regular way I heard that it will show in the app if your ticket is linked, is this true? Can you cancel a Fastpass in the app if pulled the regular way?

Can each individual link the tickets in your party to your their own My Disney Experience account?

 

[Kender]

Huh, even though my mom's and my accounts/passes are linked on the website, looks like I'll have to link them again in the app itself. Not a big deal. Just an extra step.

I definitely have MP, though, included with my Sig+. Too bad I'm 400 miles too far to go test it out, lol! Will be continuing to follow this thread. Looking like I might not get to DLR again until October because of work (boss laughed so hard when I suggested I take an August trip since I had to miss the birthday celebration for to work being crazy...). But at least most of the kinks will be ironed out by then I hope?

How long do you think they will keep maxpass at $10?

 

[althepostman]

We were able to redeem our Maxpass using our paper ticket.

These are great questions. My DD's AP is linked to mine and she has just been logging into the app with my account. However she does trips with her friends so I'd be curious to know the answer to that.

Any word on if wi-fi has improved since MP is now live?

This FAQ from Disney should answer your questions.

Usually for AP they aren't actually active when you buy them it's when you first use them at the turnstile.

At the park right now, and there doesn't seem to be any improvements on the wifi.

There seems to be a lot of issues with MP right now. Either errors with linking tickets on the app, or MP purchases stuck in 'processing' since 8 am.

Quoting myself to say, I had DD sign into the app under her account and scan her AP in. Worked with no problem. Then I checked my account and it showed her still linked to me as well. Also noticed they color coded our APs which is a nice touch, easier to tell which belongs to each person.

Can show fast passes be pulled with MP? For example, if we are in Disneyland all day, can we pull a WOC FP from Disneyland? That would be a nice perk if you are trying to get FP for night shows.

 

[Davin_Felth]

I'm curious how it works with multiple tickets and accounts as well.

For our trip next month, I was just planning on signing in with my account on my wife's phone, so she'd have access to all our tickets as well in case we decided to split up with the kids. I'm curious if we can each sign in to our own accounts and have all the tickets linked in there and still be able to use the MaxPass on each phone.

I saw a report that the show FP will remain as paper FP and cannot be pulled with MP.

The app let me link all of our APs in DD's account and they remain in mine. If I click "get FP" it gives me the option to create a party with them and the prompt to continue to purchase. So, presumably, yes.

How to Get Disney MaxPass
When you purchase your theme park tickets—on disneyland.com, with the Disneyland app or at the Disneyland Resort—you can include the Disney MaxPass feature as an add-on.
If you already have an existing ticket or Annual Passport, you can purchase the Disney MaxPass feature for the day after entering a park. Then, link it to your ticket or Annual Passport through the Disneyland app.

 

[twodogs]

Does anyone know if you can add it to an AP for a single day?

We're half way through our AP's and I'm not sure I see $300 worth of value to activate it for all four of us, especially since we get PP included already. But I would like to try it out for a day and see.

Disney MaxPass for Annual Passholders
Guests who have a valid Disneyland Annual Passport may purchase the Disney MaxPass feature as a daily add-on for $10 through the Disneyland app or as an annual add-on for $75 at a Disneyland Resort Ticket Booth. The Disney MaxPass feature is an included benefit with the Disney Signature Plus Passport and the Disney Premier Passport.
The cost of the annual Disney MaxPass feature cannot be pro-rated for passes expiring in less than a year and expires when your Annual Passport expires.

So, you purchased MaxPass on one account that has the whole party in it. On your DD's account with just her own ticket, she can then access the MaxPass features too? Cool

I know I can't buy maxpass until in the park, But can I at least link my 3 day park hopper tickets beforehand so I'm ready? Or do I have to wait until I'm in the park to link AND buy maxpass?

I would like to know this as well. I already have my 3-day PH for a late August trip (bought from ARES Travel), but haven't been to Disneyland since 1984. It sounds like I have to wait 'til I obtain a "real" ticket from the turnstile, then buy maxpass after I am inside the park, which sounds tedious.
