Split Stay and Fastpass+

[cinder-ellah]

I'm staying at CBR May 14th - May 15th.
Then at WBC the 15th - 20th.
I have a 6 day Park Hopper Pass.
I was able to make my May 14 & 15 Fastpass+ last night (March 14th).
Tonight does not show that I'm able to book for May 16th.
Any advice ?
Do I need to wait 30 days instead of 60 days since May 16th - 20th I am off site ?

Or am I a day early for booking May 16th Fastpass+ ?

I think I just answered my own question.
I'm a day early for May 16th. Guess I'm just eager to complete my Fastpass+ selections.
My first time doing the new system.

I'm not 100% sure how it should work but when when my 60 days hit for April I could book anywhere 10 days forward and anything back.

I'm staying offsite a few days before I check in and I was able to book fast passes for those days before the 30 day window hit.

Edit:

The WBC is off-site.
Must book each separate day for that stay at EACH DAY's 60-day mark.

Ditto to this.
OP should have been able to book for the full ticket on the first 60-day mark.

I believe mesa's thread says that you get the 60 days for the whole ticket as long as you are onsite. If you are doing a split stay with an offsite resort, with onsite first followed by offsite, for the days that you are offsite the window becomes a rolling 60 day window instead. At least that's what I was told when I asked

Thank you, thank you for your replies !
I've been assigned the task of making our FP+. Was having a panic attack (what was "I" doing wrong ?) Then remembered "Deep Breath".

Going to try a "Chat" online with Disney and make sure that tonight I can our FP+ for May 16th.

I shouldn't stress, just my first time doing FP+ and I didn't want to miss out.

Thank you Disboard members !

You're not alone. If nothing else, they do know how to inject a little angst into the vacationing/planning process, eh?

 

[cinder-ellah]

Angst ?????? !!!!!!!
So true.

If you are offsite starting the 16th, then you only have 30 days to book those FP. If you are onsite, you should have been able to book the entire time when your window opened for the 14th (at least that is how I remember from my trip last year).

This is incorrect according to mesa's thread. When you are onsite first, you still retain 60 day booking for your offsite second half stay, but it is a rolling 60 day wi.Dow (so instead of being able to book everything on night 1, you can book your onsite days on.night one, but the rest of the trip - the offsite days - are booked 60 days in advance of each of those nights. This is how it was explained to me.in mesa's thread.

I'll let you know ...... Logging on in 1 hour and hoping to make my next day "off site" FP+ at the 60 day mark.

Hoping for Pixie Dust !

I'll be following closely. I'm curious to see what happens as we have the exact same situation with our reservations in October.
On-site for 5 days then off-site the following week for 7 days. Sending you
Please come back on and let us know
Thx

Just noticed these....

While I appreciate the confidence you have in my info, it is completely possible that it is incorrect. These more complex situations are tricky and I am always interested in actual experiences and incorporating them as best I can.

 

[Angel Ariel]

You're right mesa..and of course more information and experiences are always a good thing!

I can confirm it is a rolling 60.

I will be offsite, onsite, and then offsite. My complete 60-day+ window opened at the 60-day mark for my onsite stay. Then the booking window continued to expand each calendar day.
