SDFP: CHANGES COMING!! Beware the 7th of June?!

[stustaff]

Hi sorry that this is my first post, I read the FAQ a few days ago and again this morning and im pretty sure I have it straight but would love if someone could just confirm for me. TIA

Last year 4 adults and one child visited, cards and 2 MB each. I'm main MDE account holder and the other adults are shown in my MDE as friends that I can make bookings for etc.

This year 2 adults and a child will visit.

So I CAN use the 2 adult cards of the 2 adults NOT with us on this trip for SDFP?

If I create a new child (IN MDE ) and assign tickets to the NEW one can I use the 'old child' one as the spare card for his SDFP.

In summary my trip will have
2 adults using current MB(with tickets added) - with 2 adults who are not on this trips cards for SDFP
1 child using NEW MB(with ticket added) - with the old MDE child account card for SDFP(I have changed name to avoid issues)

Thanks

Is there a list somewhere of rides/attractions that are generally available for SDFP? Obviously it changes by the second, but is there a list of the common rides that are usually available first thing in the morning for a set of 3 SDFP? ALso wondering if its likely that we can get morning times for attractions instead of later in the day. Thanks for everything you have done to put this thread together! so excited to try it for the first time this upcoming September!

Touring Plans has recommendations for which attractions are typically available for same-day FPs at each park.

I promise I have read this entire thread, but I can't remember seeing the answer to this. On our first park day, we're starting off at Epcot and then hopping to the Studios. I plan to book our regular FPs at DHS. Will we be able to book 3 SDFPs (with cards attached to phantoms on MDE) at Epcot that morning, use those (assuming we can get return times early enough before hopping to DHS), and then book 3 more SDFPs when we get to DHS, or will we just be able to book one SDFP at a time in the second park?

Just one at a time at the second park, once you arrive.

Thanks for your fast reply! What if we only make 1 or 2 SDFPs at Epcot. Would that make a difference, or would we still only be able to make one at a time at DHS?

kaybee, you can book a set of 3 SDFPs in DHS. It's totally independent of your regular FPs.

After your initial 3 regular FPs, you can book your 4th via the app.

After your initial 3 SDFPs, you can book a 4th at a kiosk.

Now that I'm thinking of it, can your 4th be in another park?

For SDFP? Yes, from a kiosk-only.

We're going to Epcot in the morning and DHS in the afternoon. Are you saying I can book 3 SDFPs at Epcot in the morning and, after using those and hopping to DHS, I can book 3 more SDFPs at DHS? Or if I visit a kiosk before we leave Epcot, I can only book 1 additional SDFP for either park?

Sorry, I mixed up DHS rather than Epcot off of your question here:

Yes you can book 3 SDFPs for Epcot. If you only book 2, then you can book your 3rd at DHS.

Then 4th regular from the app; 4th SDFP from a kiosk.

 

[kaybee1476]

That makes more sense. Thanks!

Sorry for all the questions, but the answers make me think of new questions. Since Epcot and DHS both have tiers, if I make only 2 SDFPs at Epcot (1 Tier 1, the other Tier 2), would it let me book a Tier 1 ride at DHS as my SDFP #3 or would I have to use my Tier 1 SDFP at Epcot first?

You cannot book SDFP's unless you're physically at a kiosk in that park. So most likely you would have used the Tier 1 at Epcot already by that point. So you won't be able to book your SDFP's for HS until you get over there. Whether you've already used 2 or 3 at that point (and independent of Tiers), you would be able to book another Tier 1 there.

Or any other park? This will be our first time trying this and were wondering if SDFP can be made for a different park than the park we will currently be in. thanks!

 

[loves to dive]

A FP can be made for any other park after you have tapped you MB to the tapstyles for the last FP you already have booked or cancel it. If you have used or cancelled or have not more FPs booked, you can book your next one wherever you want.

It appears you are asking about SDFP rather than "day of" FPs as your 4th or later.

Merging you to the SDFP thread.

And SDFP can only be booked at a kiosk for the park where you are located.
