Not yet active annual pass and 60 day fast pass res?

[Yahweh]

Sorry I'm sure this has been asked before.....

If I have 8 nights booked at the Boardwalk in early December, and I'm planning to buy annual passes, but won't activate them before the trip, can I book Fastpass+ 60 days out?

You could buy regular tickets and then upgrade after you enter your first park.

Do you have a voucher?
You link that number and you can book fast pass + at the 60 days out

Order your APs as "Will Call" (pick-up at WDW) and you will get a
confirmation number (it will either automatically go into your MDE account when you order the AP, or you can put the number in your MDE manually) and that will allow you to make FP+ advance reservations starting at your
60-day mark.

Should be fine, buy your APs, link confirmation to MDE, and you should be good to go for booking FP. It won't activate your AP.

Here's a thread where someone verifies they've done just that:

Thanks Everyone I kind of figured I'd be fine, but didn't want to find out 60 days before my trip that I couldn't make Fastpass+ reservations.

But figured I would do what wareagle mentioned and upgrade reg. tickets once I arrive at the park.

you guys are awesome!

I don't know how long you're going for, but if it's longer than the ticket you're thinking of buying and then upgrading, I recommend not doing that.

I bought APs that we will activate when we arrive on Aug 17. When my 60 day window opened, I had no problem making all of my FP ressies for the duration of our two week trip.
If you buy a regular ticket with the intention of upgrading, you might save a couple of dollars, but the number of FPs you'll be allowed to book at the 60 day window will be limited to the number of days your ticket is for....

Great advice, thanks!!
