OFFICIAL New Animal Kingdom Experiences UPDATE 5/28: Reports from first night in Post #2

[ckelly14]

Tried to book evening FP+ for AK in July- no changes

 

[pmaurer74]

I'm not able to even open up the disneyworld.go site at all. Is this normal or am I missing something?

I had trouble all day with the website yesterday and I was hoping it was in preparation for this.

Thank you! I'll just keep refreshing. Really can't do this all day though...

When I try to get to the fast pass booking section on my phone I get an error 404, fingers crossed that means something good is coming soon

I'm about to clock in for work and won't get my first break until 11ish. I hope I don't miss anything, I can't take my phone out in the booths and our computers don't load MDE anymore...

Hopefully!! I would also say that I generally have more luck using my laptop than my iPhone or iPad MDE apps. When hard pressed I'll open a browser in safari and go to the WDW website -- sometimes is more reliable than the app, in my experience.

Don't mean to burst your bubble, but I can get into the FP section on my phone.

With ADRs, FPs, and everyone checking for anything new, I think we will see many glitches in the system today.

What is supposed to happen today?

Oh well, probably just my phone then. I'm able to use the app fine for fast passes, it was just the actual website

Indeed. We were told to "watch the Disney Parks Blog!" for info today. We just couldn't help but check this morning to see if anything was already bookable.

Is the jungle book show worth the trouble of giving up fast passes in another park though? River of light I could understand. I am just curious because I do not know much about the show.

I think so! Only because its a limited engagement, the jungle book is a great story and I view it as a preview to what is to come in ROL!

Is this the presumption of events; blog post today for booking Monday?

 

[DWFamilyof6]

The blog just posted A&E FP open tomorrow so I'm guessing maybe Jungle Book news is next...

 

[MlWinans]

Not just the meet and greet. Both Frozen Ever After and the new A&E meet and greet open on June 21st

 

[JeninTexas]

And the blog says that FP booking for FEA will open tomorrow.

 

[blackpearl77]

I wonder if they will do that for jungle book? Make the FP booking a day after the announcement? Would be nice not to have to stalk all day today....hehehehehe

 

[quagmire0]

I'm not even seeing a 'jungle book' event on the website yet. Still listed as ROL.
