No Elsa and Anna fast pass+ for entire trip...

[scard192]

Something else that is causing fewer slots... the parties. They won't issue FP for the hours MK is closed for the party, so from 7:00 on. That removes a lot of FP slots from the inventory. I think some issues with them are from that.

agree 100%. also effects ADRs for BOG. I starting trying at 180 days to get BOG for dinner for our trip last October and could never get one; finally gave up and then along came the BPG FP+.

4 of the 6 nights we were at the parks last year MNSSHP was held, sure cuts into the number of evenings at MK for very popular things like BOG and FP. Will be the case into December when MVMCP takes over.

Well I was able to get a fast pass plus for myself but not DH. By some miracle it opened up but it won't let me copy it... And I tried to go in and now it won't give even one slot. He could care less about meeting them but I would like him to be there with me lol. He always just takes the picture.

This has me in an almost panic.... oh no! We book our FP+ on Friday night/Saturday morning.... I really need an A&E for my daughter... ugh

 

[Altoqueenkelly]

I booked some for a friends trip the other night. Right when they opened I went to the last full day of their trip (day 7 -Sept 12) and looked for A&E. They started at 1pm. So if your trip is <10 days it wouldnt surprise me at all to not find one.

Im so sorry. Hopefully something will open up for you.

This is stressing me out since I need FP+ for the 12th and cant book till Friday night/Saturday morning... ugh, what a mess!!!

I honestly thought there would be no issues. Good luck! I hope you can

I'm fairly certain I will have worked myself into a heart attack by the time our booking window opens. This is insane.

I think some issues with them are from that. Because those of us going in the much busier summer are not having problems getting them. But, we have many more hours to work with.

Ah, I didn't even consider that but I'm sure you're right.

Earlier this week I was able to get A&E FP+ for DD and I on September 1. Just keep trying!

I want to mention (and was guilty of this) that it looks like economic hoarding behavior is happening with A&E FPs (scare resources) leading to an inefficient distribution. Those of us on longer trips book A&E for every MK day even though only 1 or 2 are needed. 10 day+ tourers are booking 5, 6 A&E FP+ in case weather or last minute plans change. Much easier re-booking an A&E to anything (besides 7DMT) the day of.

While not endorsing this behavior; there is one upside. All of those missed FP+ reservations will make the standby line move faster.

Actually, more same-day FP+ availability, because as people actually use the FP+s for A&E, they'll ancel the unneeded ones so that can use that FP+ for something else.

Hard to blame someone for doing this, but again, not what I'm wanting to hear.

If we aren't able to get one then I may consider cancelling our breakfast reservations one morning we are planning to spend the morning at our resort (GFV) and go over to MK for rope drop and go straight to Anna & Elsa and just grab something to eat in the park lol.

This is exactly what we will be doing. Same resort and everything. Praying the FP gods look favorably upon me on October 12.

I feel your pain. Our window isn't open until October and it's already giving me a headache. I actually had a dream about it last night. Insanity.

 

[Aurora0427]

When Anna & Elsa met in Norway, they'd allow one person to stand in line since the waits were so bad. Anyone know if they'll let you do that now at MK? I'm not sure it would even work since some of the wait is inside.

 

[DebbieB]

I wonder if they are cutting back the hours, didn't it used to close at 5:00?

I made my FP+ selections at 1:00am two weeks ago and wasn't able to get five together for A&E on either of our MK days.

So I am kind of hoarding because I am going in several times a day to check both days - trying to see if availability opens up for either. So far I've been able to get four that have a time in common for one day, and three together for the other day.

So I'm just going to keep trying. There hasn't been much available, at least not when I check. New times are very rare. But if I can get five that have a time in common for either day, I will drop all the reservations for the other day. That's probably how some of these times are opening up - people finally getting one day arranged, so they drop the other day.

I did try using the website not the app. It's weird some people were able to get them. The second week of Sept is when we are going too.. Now the website isn't working for me to check again.

Can you try a different internet browser? I do remember Disney worked better on one and not the other.

I am glad that you got at least one. Great!

Not at the moment because I am at work
