Shew wee y'all.... I'm getting a taste of hate and rudeness from so many posts here with all the FP drama going on! I think we should all take a step back and realize it's not a big deal! It's just a fast pass for a ride! If you feel like you don't want to risk loosing your last days FP then delete what you have booked for the party. You can always try to get more later! We are all going to a party and will have fun no matter if you get to use FP or not... um, hello Boo to you Parade and Happy Hallowishes!! Maybe someone will even let a Sanderson sister put a spell on them! Let's keep pushing forward and being positive and hopefully Disney will sprinkle pixie dust on us all!!

ps... IM GOING TO DISNEY IN 51 DAYS!!! Whooooo hooooooo!!!!!

Speaking of Sanderson Sister, I swore I read last year the Emporium had the Spell Book and guests were allowed to have pictures taken with it. A CM's mother made the book. Don't know if it's still around. This is what it looks like, kinda cool!

Did anyone else see this:

Starting October 1st, 2017, The Magic Kingdom will be launching an all new tour called “Taste of The Magic Kingdom”. While details are scarce right now, the new paid tour will take guests on a culinary tour through the popular snacks and dishes of the park. Disney is expected to announce the tour and the details of it sometime in the next month.

Seriously?! Does it include the Boo To You Parade?!! LOL

I saw the date and the fact that they have released the Epcot 35th merch and just though, yup you forgot about Halloween again.

Also that tour, depending on the perks, as Kenny the Pirate commented, you could just do it yourself...

You guys honestly, stop relying on what the cast member replies to you, as sad as that sounds. They truly don't know anything. If the system has been updated to now disallow fast passes to be made with party tickets, cast members on the phone etc., will be the last to know!

I'm thinking it's all going to come down to chance. Either the system "catches" you and deletes a day of fast passes, or it doesn't.

Good luck everybody!

I know isn't it sad that the CM's on the phone and on the online chat as well pretty much know nothing.
I'm taking my chances and keeping my FP+.

 

[Queen of the WDW Scene]

Here's the thing, Disney has NEVER stated at least in writing that FP's on Party Tickets are not allowed. In fact many including myself have posted responses we received directly from Disney stating we can. Timing is a bit different, instead of 3ish now we can start at 4pm. So no one is taking anything away from anyone. It was just a harsh comment no matter what it's purpose or intent. I'm not sure where or how the rumor started we couldn't make FP's on Party Tickets but it's not true. Something else is in play here and the only way to define it is by calling it a glitch.

My first FP+ starts at 3:15pm with just the party ticket so I'm "taking away". It overlaps into the 4pm hour so I don't see it as being unfair. If Disney no longer wants party tickets to have FP+ then they will stop me from using it.

I'm going to the Halloween Party for the first time ever! I love Halloween and I love Disney!!! I'm beyond excited.

 

[FoxC63]

Let's try that again! This Halloween stuff is from WDW Floral & Gifts new for 2017, what's missing is Goofy. He is being offered I just cannot secure a picture of him.

Going to 1st party, was holding off on making FP but I made some today with party tickets which are under DW account. The rest of trip reservations are under my MDE and we're not connected. Also will have upgraded to APs a few days prior so not relying on just party ticket for admission around 3:30 PM. Can't imagine this being an issue.

What is Mickey wearing? What is that from? Minnie looks cute. Are they suppose to be ghosts? I get Pluto's costume. Anyone?

Holy cow yall! I haven't been on the boards in a bit because life has been busy, but my goodness there's a lot going on. I know I quoted a bunch of stuff, but I feel like half of it is probably irrelevant by the time I got caught up! LOL

The removal of previous perk of 3 FP+ is not necessarily a deal breaker for everyone, but it is a serious loss in the stand alone value of the party ticket. (again, assuming this ends up being correct)

I would agree. I paid $100.11 for my ticket for the 11/1 party. A regular one day theme park ticket is $113.96 for the same day. While I understand there are added experience for the five hours of party time, and we get in at 4pm "if capacity allows" . I really feel that the FastPass ability was added value to a ticket that costs roughly the same as a one day ticket.

Additionally I am using a 5 day military salute hopper so I can't cheaply add a day for some FastPasses if they elect not to give them to those with party tickets.

I totally agree. Most people purchase just the party ticket or use only a party ticket to enter at 4pm. The fact Disney isn't allowing FP's on a party ticket is annoyingly uncool considering the cost.

Perfectly stated.

Okay go with me on this....we gave up on costumes for the party. But Disney bounding is much easier...
I said before my hair is dark brown and curly with awesome natural gray streaks that are really noticeable when I wear it down. Soo....my dress I already planned on wearing, hair loose and curly, dark lipstick, find a little green lantern.

Mother Gothel!

And I thought Micky could just wear a t-shirt that says "I'm Malicious, Mean and Scary"!!! Would anyone get it? I would have to get the t-shirt made, but that's not hard. Can just get a brown one, close to the color of the character's outfit.

thoughts?

Love these! So perfect!

I decided to send a letter to Disney and express my displeasure at this FP situation. It's not like we're trying to circumvent the rules here or anything. Maybe if enough people write in about this "glitch" then that's all they will pass it off to be - a "glitch."

Alright, Disnerds, go forth and complain!

I will likely be expressing my displeasure at the situation as well. However I don't go until the last party and am really curious to see what happens with the first party, even though it appears those attending the August parties aren't having issues?

Clearly these were craft projects, but I think that's part of the fun for Halloween!

You did an amazing job! Love them!

So instead of booking 3 FP as we have done in the past which could be the glitch some of you have been experiencing, just book 2 FP on your Party Ticket.

I am only planning on booking two FPs anyways so this plan works for me!

September 1st.

Me too, Sept 1!! My first MNSSHP!!! I am so excited!!!! I was able to make fastpasses really early (11:30 AM)! Even though we can't get in! We will just be arriving that day to Grand Floridian from the Disney Dream.

So excited!

So we decided to go as Muppets. I'm going to be Fozzie, DW is Animal, DD9 is Gonzo, DD6 is Miss Piggy, and DS2 is Kermit. We're going to do more of a bounding thing than full fledged costumes. We're going 9/1 and are excited
