Report of 4th FP from app!?

[ArwenMarie]

Wow enjoy!

OK, so I went to the parks today instead of the weekend to try and avoid larger crowds. Taking a little "beverage" break at the Rose & Crown and wanted to show the screen grabs I took of doing this successfully and have booked six Fast Passes via the Mobile MDE app for today.
...

You said, "At the Rose & Crown pretty much right now." I wish I were there!!

You said:
After USING all three Fast Passes, I went to book three more at EPCOT and received the "conflict" message

Thank You for these great screen shots!


You said:
I selected the "Replace Eddie's experiences" option
Boy oh boy oh boy, I can't tell you how many times I wished I'd had the option
to "Replace Sherry's experiences"


You said:
Chose the party that needed attention

That would be my daughter. Or my husband. Sometimes me.



Thanks again for the screenshots

Because there is the choice to "Tap Back to Choose a Different Day," the FP section is offering FP selections based on an available "new" ticket entitlement. Good to know because I have extra tickets stored in my MDE!!

I don't think that's what's going on. The tap back to choose a different day is just giving him a chance to change the day he's trying to get FPs for. If he decided he wasn't looking for April 30, but wanted May 1st instead, he would tap on the "back" button.

Does this mean it's only going to work with APs or people who have extra tickets? Like, if you have 7 day passes, and use those first 3 FPs in HS, then book 3 more in Epcot using this "glitch", will it take an additional day of your tickets, so that you'd only have 5 left after that one day? Not that I expect anyone to know this ... just wondering out loud.

Yes, but it's giving that option based on a ticket entitlement. A ticket entitlement opens up a selection of 3 FPs which is different than just a single 4th FP.

And with extra tickets, not AP, it's best to reassign to phantoms and pre-select 3FPs. A guest with an AP doesn't have that option.

He said in the post he used the three at HS before booking another three.

I will definitely try this in a month!

I was so busy looking at the screenshots I didn't read the actual words.

One additional question...did you make your additional 3 Epcot FP+s after you got to Epcot, or while you were still at DHS?

Eddie has an AP. And he selected 3 new FPs. And he didn't use the back button, he let the system resolve his conflicts.

Using FPs in the FP lines does not "use" a ticket entitlement. I researched a number of scenarios for the SDFP thread and pre-booked 3 FPs for MK. Four days before entering MK, I selected 3 SDFPs in Epcot using my MB that was linked to my MDE with the MK FPs. My ticket entitlement remained intact and my 3 MK FPs were not altered at all and I only had 1 ticket entitlement linked to that specific MDE.

The system allowed Eddie to choose 3 FPs because he always has extra ticket entitlements due to his AP.

Looking at the screen shots, it doesn't appear that it's based on extra tickets- just that he's going to replace the current FP selections (that were used this morning at DHS) with new selections (to be used tonight at EP).

But the system is allowing Eddie to choose a different day; you cannot choose a different day for FP selection if you do not have another/new ticket entitlement.

Just focusing solely on today's FP selections though, it's appearing that he's able to replace what he's used earlier today with new FP's for tonight.

This seems like a scary though. It sounds like you are suggesting that if you book 3 more on the app that maybe you could lose one of the days on your passes? Or could it affect fastpasses for another day? That wouldn't be worth it.

I know you responded to my the 1st quote here, but I am confused by this. It sounds like you booked FPs for MK and then booked for Epcot for the same day? How is that possible? So, you had 6 FP for the same day before even arriving at the parks? I really hope this does work. Just being able to bypass the kiosk would be great, and we love to park hop, but I wouldn't want to mess up all the fastpasses I stayed up to book for our trip last night! boy, would that be a waste of the lack of sleep I got!

That's true, he is. But, from Eddie's screenshot, the FP system would allow him to choose a completely different day based on a ticket entitlement.

At a FP kiosk,when you tap a ticket or MB to select a 4th FP, the system does not allow you to choose a different day nor more than one FP at a time.

No, I had Epcot FPs four days BEFORE I entered MK and it did not alter anything in my MDE. You would need to read ScrapYap's info in her SDFP thread. By following her thread, after I used my MB in Epcot for a set of 3 SDFP/s, I then had a total of 6 FPs for Epcot. But because I was only researching to report back to the SDFP thread, I canceled the SDFPs and returned them to the system.

I didn't enter the park using tickets in my MDE account. I entered via a CM guest pass which had 3 pre-booked FPs that we chose an hour before entering the park.

Having the extra ticket entitlements makes sense. I'm confused on the AP though. Hmm, wouldn't all APs be able to do that then?
