Tomorrow is FP day! I’ll be up at 3:30am so I can start reserving at 4:00am. Yep. I’m on the west coast.

Question. I am staying onsite. When I go into the FP page in MDE, it tells me I can’t proceed until I link tickets. I’ve already done that for my group. When I try to do so, I’m told I’ve already linked.

I’ve been told that when the FP window opens tomorrow I’ll no longer get that message and will be able to proceed with reserving. Is that correct, or am I missing something?
 
Did you book a package (tickets are part of your room reservation)? If yes, then the message you are receiving is normal.
 
For onsite guests with a room/ticket package, the 60-day prebooking window will not appear until the 60-day mark. Before this point, it is normal for various members and/or their tickets to not appear on the MDX account. The entire traveling party and their tickets will appear at the 60-day mark in almost all cases. It is generally not possible to practice booking FPs beforehand in this situation.
 
I'm guessing you have a vacation package.
Its normal. It will work how its supposed to when your 60 day window opens.
 

How long does it take to get your FP booked? Wondering if I need to go into work late the morning I book ours...

I did the fast passes all in less than a half hour. I did notice that it got very busy at 7 a.m. ET, and the morning FP went very quickly for every day of my trip. I also had a list ahead of time of exactly what I wanted & approximately when, which helped a lot. I've also ended up changing some FP since the first day I booked them.

It took me almost 2.5 hours. I had 7 days to book for 4 people. I found the website too cumbersome & gave up, moving only to the app. I spent lots of time rebooking earlier & earlier to opening time (sometimes only 5 minutes per change). After about 2 hours the mass reshuffling seemed to stop & availability started slowing, so I was done. In the end my latest FP time was 11:55-12:55, otherwise we're done by noon & trying for 4th, 5th FP and beyond.
