***MyMagic+ & FastPass+ Official Information & FAQ Thread***

Thanks... is this only viewable if you'r eligible for FP+? I clicked My Plans on the app and all it says is "Add Plans'. I click that and it gives me the option to make dining reservations and "add extras to your plan" which includes parade times, etc.

Must be. I've always seen it but we've been using the bands since July and that's when I dl'd the app. I guess it appears as active once you can use it.

Anyone know how this will work? I have a four year old, a one year old and my husband on my trip with me. Say we book Spash Mountain. My husband rides with my four year old, then I would have to ride alone to use the FP+? (totally don't mind waiting in line to ride with my son if I have to). Just checking if they're allowing swapping or anything. Thanks!

I just noticed today under "My Disney Experience" that I can now make the Fastpass+ selections. I went in and made all my selections for our stay and it is saved in our itinerary.

I don't recall getting an invitation for this, so is this for real? If so, how do we hook it up and get our magic bands?

Edited to add: Our stay is 9/21 - 9/27 at the Poly.

Rider swap isn't going away you can still ask for a rider swap so the 4 year old gets a second go.

No, your DH and 4yr old book Splash. You and the 4yr old ride using rider swap. The same process as using paper FPs. No reason to pull/book a FP for someone who is riding using the swap pass.

It doesn't really give you anything extra but maybe with your 'extra' FP selection, you could book Peter Pan or Winnie the Pooh to take the 1 yr old on while the others are on Splash.

Did you try changing the dates to the dates of your vacation?

I couldnt find anyway to change the dates

I couldnt find anyway to change the dates

Does it show today's date at the top of the page with arrows and a little calendar?

Has anyone been able to book FP+ before they received their Magic Bands? Someone wrote on this thread that you need to link your passes to your Magic Bands before you can book FP+, but what I have read from others suggests that they were able to book FP+ without having their Magic Bands as long as they had purchased park passes.

Yes, we were able book FP+ before our bands arrived. As soon as wee were eligible to customize our bands, I linked our APs and we could book FP+.

Yes it does, but the error message leting me know that none of my tickets fall in that range is superimposed over it with an OK button. The actual calendar buttons are inactive. Once you click on the O.K. button the entire window goes away. I guess I will just wait until I hit the 60 day mark (in 16 days!), do the on-line confirmation and see what happens. I am a real techno-geek so I really want to try these bands, but will have a blast in Disney no matter what!

Why can't I do any fast pass+ after 9/28?

I was able to stay on the calendar page by hitting "Esc", instead of clicking the O.K. button. I could then click on the arrowhead near the top of the title on the page to move from day to day, but it didn't let me book any FP+ since I have not purchased passes yet.

Because the FPs end then. It may be to analyze data or prep for rollout.

 

[DisneyMarv]

i have a question i already ordered the magic bands and they should be shipping soon since i have no longer access to customize them now will the email stating the magic bands have shipped go to every guest who is linked to that account or will only the main person in that account get the email ?

Thx, I arrive at POP 9/28, will I be able to set any from 9/29 on before I check in?

 

[erinkpoole]

When I click on Manage MagicBands in MDE, it shows four KTTW cards with twelve digits under them. Three of them are from past trips (two from January when we had a split stay and one from April). The fourth must be the ticket for our upcoming trip at the beginning of October.

Do I need to do anything about the other three cards? The admission media on them has expired. Anyone else with this same issue?

Thank you.

They always had rider swap so I'm sure that will remain unchanged
