Report of 4th FP from app!?

[BebopBaloo]

Howdy again...

One more time folks - I don't have an AP.
I didn't have extra tickets.
We used three and made a fourth on my husbands phone. We didn't know that we weren't supposed to be able to do that. We used it without a problem. It was in the same park as the first three. I apologize if I sound rude, but I've had to repeat myself a couple times on this thread alone. When I first mentioned this a few months ago, I was totally ignored. Was it a glitch? Maybe? Who knows. All I know is that it worked for me and it has worked randomly for others. For planning purposes, don't bank on it happening for you, but go ahead and try it because there's nothing to lose.

I don't have an AP. I didn't have extra tickets. It didn't mess up any other dates.

I assume you mean this one above, correct? I will book seven days of FP's starting Sunday through Saturday. We are going to the parks this Sunday and I will use those and try to book three more that same day to see if I can get the extra FP's for that day as well and report the findings.

Could you add something?
1) book Sun May3, Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu,Fri,Sat
2) use Sunday May 3rds FPs
3) BOOK Sunday May 10TH <<, important
4) Then try to rebook Sunday may 3rds 3 fastpasses "resolving conflict"

I think line 3 is important. Because that is the one that is in question.

@DrivenByDisney - you do need to pre-book the future date's 3 FPs immediately after you've used your initial 3 FPs before you attempt to book another 3 for Sunday. If you miss that step, you'll end up with your already proven results.

Yup ... That's the plan actually. I have already booked all the FP's just that way and will attempt to do just as you described there.

THANKS! I think this will be an awesome test. We already know your app knows how to do it, and YOU know how to do it, so we're down to just the situational.

Following along. We have a trip booked for the end of June and we all have APs. I'm curious to see if I can make this work for us.

No one is disregarding your good fortune in obtaining 4th FPs from the app. I'm now thinking I should have also researched that on my recent trip.

The Thread has morphed into "Acquire a New Set of 3 FPs After Entering a Park Using an AP That Has Ticket Entitlements and Has Not Maxed Out Its FP Allotment."

 

[lhall7]

so I assume you have to do this for everyone in your party separately or can it be done all at once for everyone?

You should be able to do it for all.

In your MDE, the FP system allows FP selection for every listed member who has a valid ticket. DrivenbyDisney is selecting FPs using the MDE system's FP program so he can select members who have tickets or APs. It won't matter if some have stayed home and not even in the park.

I'm at MK for our 1st ever trip (not an AP holder) on Tuesday. Can't wait. We have 3 late afternoon FP's booked. I'll try from my Android phone to get 4,5,6 once initial 3 are used on Tuesday. Hey, I'll even take screenshots

My apologies..I was sitting in a waiting room skimming through the pages that I had missed since yesterday and when I kept seeing the AP reference..I thought we were still talking about the initial subject and the screenshots that were taken yesterday. Blerg. It's one of those days. I hope the extra stuff works out for APs.

 

[disnut1149]

You're right. I just looked in MDE and saw my old FPs. I guess I just never look under that tab.

Where did you find this tab? I can't find it. I'm on the computer.

 

[rtbreneman]

Coluk, if a guest has an extra ticket(s) in their MDE that isn't being used for FPs for their trip, it's more advantageous to reassign the tickets to phantom guests in their MDE. In that way, FPs can be pre-booked and the FPs accessed at the FP line by using a ticket or a MB linked to the phantom. It doesn't use a ticket entitlement because the FP lines don't care how you entered the park.

An extra ticket for any guest, even an AP, that is assigned to a phantom acts as a perpetual FP generator and you could enter the park with much more than 3 pre-booked FPs depending on how many extra tickets you have linked to phantom guests.

I purchased 6 day tix from UT, linked them in MDE, and then ended up booking a package through Disney as well with tix included, also linked in MDE. I created phantom guests and linked the UT tix to them so there would be no confusion at the gate as to which tix to use upon entry. If I'm reading this correctly, I could theoretically grab FP+ for the actual tix I used to enter the park, and then somehow access the phantom guests' FP+ as well? How would I do this, theoretically speaking...? Is park entry not a pre-requisite for FP+ to work? I don't want to use up my second tix, I'm saving them for another trip.

I was on the app. From the drop down menu (with the three bars) I chose "My Reservations." Then I scolled all the way to the bottom on the page and chose "View Your Past Items." I have a Iphone 6 if it makes a difference.

I don't see how I would find it on the website.

You are correct that FPs will work even if the ticket associated with the set of 3 FPs was not used for park entry.

Because this Thread has morphed once, I will refer you to ScrapYap's thread where the working theory is explained in her first post and the scenario of two sets of tickets is explained throughout her thread:

I tried today at the studios and was unable to resolve my conflict.

@mrzrich: neither AP nor extra ticket entitlements (without FPs) in your MDE?

 

[mrzrich]

I have an AP. I used my 3 FP+. When I tried to book more the conflict message came up. When I tried to resolve the conflicts it said I had to remove myself from the party because I had already used my entitlements
