"Official" 2018 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - A Spooktacular Celebration!

Our first FP for the party night is from 3:20-4:20 for the mine train. If we can enter at 4, can we make it back there by 4:20? I HATE rushing down Main St. but I guess we'll have to on this trip. I *think* I remember actually being able to scan in at 3:45 on a party night so my plan is to be there ready to go at that time.
You may be a bit rushed, but you’ll make it. Once they start scanning folks in, the line moves surprisingly fast. Just don’t stop for any pictures or anything until after your ride and you’ll be fine! If you want to get back to the front of the park for the pumpkin picture, etc, you can enter via the back entrance of the bypass in Tomorrowland to avoid the crowds on Main Street.

Won't you have until 4:35 with the 15 minutes grace period? Seems like you won't have to rush.
 
I'm in Disneyland right now! I've been staying up to date though. The items I posted a bit ago are available here in Disneyland Park including the pins. Picked this up for my son a few days ago:

It's really impressive, well made too.

Thats great. I will be at Disneyland on Friday. i will need to check that stuff out and can get it closer to home then bringing it back from Florida. Hope your having a great time.
 

I got the dreaded FP email today. I need to call Disney and get it squared away or I will just cancel my FP for the party night.
 
Is there any rhyme or reason as to who is getting the emails and when? Like, it is at the 30 day mark or something like that?

My first FP ends at 4:15. If they begin letting people in at 3:45 as some reports last year indicated, that gives me 30 mins. (45 w/ the grace period) to get back there.

I don't know if there has been a pattern determined yet about who is getting them but I believe so far those of us with only party tickets on our accounts have been safe.

Has anyone who only has a party ticket on their MDE received the email? I haven't and mine were booked mid-June and I've made a few changes to our trip since then. Our party is in less than 2 weeks and I just checked and our FPs are still there.
 
I had only a party ticket on my account (for a Sunday party), then a few days ago added a one-day hopper and made FP for Saturday. So far so good, fingers crossed!

I got my email the day after I made a change to my reservation online by adding Magical Express. It could have been a coincidence but maybe there is a pattern from others. I was in the 35-40 days out range.

I am on the phone with Disney Internet support right now and they won't allow FP before 4 if you get the email and have to call in. I was able to save my 7DMT and Big Thunder. He stated that he has heard that Big Thunder will be open for the party but take that for what is worth.

For me no changes were made at all so there seems to be no reason or rhyme behind it. He said he had to make my FP as special FP that wouldn't count against tickets but could only do 2 of them.

I think it’s prerty much been confirmed that a change of any kind to to your reservation (when tickets are part of a package) triggers the email. Though I think there are still others that got the email that don’t fall into that category, so there must be other criteria too.
