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

[doconeill]

Coming this Nov.(14-19) my family of three are going to WDW and have been selected to partake in the MB experience. We are going with another family of 4 who have not at this time been picked to test the MB. My question is I would like to make a Fastpass+ ressy for BOG lunch, and would like to make it for 7 can I do this???

BOG "Fastpass+" isn't really part of the Fastpass+ system right now. It's an independent test. There are other threads on it.

Not sure if you get to specify the number of guests - it never worked for me

Based in what I am reading, am I correct in thinking I will not be able to use the fast passes I loaded on our magic bands unless we have regular tickets loaded on the bands as well? We are only going for MNSSHP and staying at AOA one night before a cruise. I was able to load the party tickets on the magic band and get 3 fast passes between 4-7pm. Will this work?

The BOG FP+ will only let you make a reservation for the people on your hotel reservation. We have 2 rooms, my sister gave me her disney log in and when I put in her resort reservation # I was able to make a reservation for her family.
seems to go stictly by the people on the reservation. Perhaps your friends can make their own reservation; wouldn't hurt to try.

I spoke with a MDE CM today when I wanted to change my BOG FP+ ressie to our last trip day (which was not given as an option when I booked it). Only the first 7 days were given as options I assumed this was since we only bought a 7-day MYW ticket. So today I called the MDE site to get the ressie I made for mid-trip 10/14 switched to the last day/check out day, 10/18.

The CM asked me how I got the link (which was here, I said on the web) and she continued that since it was not emailed directly to me I may not use it. She said once I go into BOG on my reservation date it would not work/I would not be seated. Only people who had the official invitation emailed to them would be able to use their reservations.

Interesting - I was able to make BOG FP+ reservations for my family of four and also my two inlaws under their account. But the CM claims when we walk up to our ADR we will be turned away as the system will recognize that we were not invited directly.... seems strange to me that it would allow us to make ressies at all then.

Anyone book it with the link provided on the DIS (not invited personally by email) and use it without this problem?

While the party tickets do seem to allow booking FP+ for a day, I have _heard_ that they won't be valid and that they shouldn't work that way. I don't know if that is true yet - you might be unique in having ONLY the party ticket in this case.

There are a lot of reports on the BOG FP+ threads with people who used theirs just fine with no invite.

I really doubted Disney would turn people away.. That would be a nightmare..
And I was told there was no one CM could talk to get info on BOG lunch Ressie... Therefor they can not help move or change any Ressie until you get the resort..

Hasn't worked for me either. I tried multiple times, but no luck. I wonder if it is only for certain resorts??? Would really love to get FP for this, as that is the only way I am going to have a shot at eating here... 4 men who don't love standing in line, especially for food.

I may have missed it but I don't recall anyone posting on here (at least not in several weeks) that they h-a-v-e gotten an invitation. I wonder if they are even doing the email invites anymore.

I think I saw a post on one of the many BOG FP+ threads that someone posted last week that they got an invite right before their check in date. But for over a month no one could make BOG FP+ ressie after 9/26 so it could have been in that timeframe.

I'm booking my FP+ now...how come I don't see ETWB in the MK or the Finding Nemo show at AK or Wishes etc...

Can someone help me please?!?!

Thanks so much!

Many people have reported back that they have booked it (without an "invitation") and been seated no problem. I made a BOG lunch reservation this morning, without any actual park tickets linked yet to my account (we are AP Holders but hadn't liked them yet) and could make them within 7 days of my resort reservation starting.

I booked my FP+'s this morning too, and I couldn't request any of those either. I'm planning on checking back from time to time and see if they open up later. But, like you.... I couldn't get them either. No parades or fireworks were an option for us.

 

[Disney_Princess83]

What days are you trying to make them for? Wishes isn't available everyday as a FP+ option. Finding Nemo might be full for the day ( but I'd be surprised unless you're trying to make a reservation for the next few days) We also found signing in and out again sometimes worked (what options appeared on my computer, wouldn't show up on my sisters until she signed out and in again)

First week of December.....Yeah, I know about Wishes, but I thought ETWB and Finding Nemo would be there..I'll finish and then check back later I guess maybe..

Thanks!

When are you going? I was able to book FP+ at 60 days out but was only able to book BoG last week, and book Wishes & MSEP on Friday (at 22 days out). So if you're going in November or December, I would just keep checking back regularly to see if more "experiences" open up. If you're going this month, then I'd be more worried.

Yes, I am just at the 60 day mark today. We check in 11/30 and out 12/7. I am planning on checking back often to see if other rides, parades or fireworks open up. Thank you for giving your experiences with it... It gives me hope!

We are AP Holders and are currently making FP+ reservations. We have only been able to make 7 days worth of FP+ reservations. They're not consecutive days but after this, we keep getting the message that we need to "trade" a day to make more FP+ reservations.

Interesting...previously they were allowing 14 days max.

That's what we were counting on, however now it says we need to swap a date to make anymore FP+ reservations. Hopefully we can "double dip" because we want to be able to pull regular FP for days we don't have FP+ reservations at the very least.
