SW:GE and Fastpass Availability

[Andsco]

Now that we are within 60 days of GE opening, for people who have started booking their fastpasses, what’s the availability look like for any of the parks? Are people finding it more difficult to get what is usually easy enough attractions?

I mean people have been booking for the last 9 days prior to this already as well and it is a holiday weekend.

I booked yesterday. SDD was available +1 in the evening. I had no issue booking FoP for 60+2 (I wanted evening but early afternoon was available). Got 7DMT for +4 with my choice of times. RnRC, ToT, TSM, AS2 and SDD has plenty of availability for +3

I’ve been reading from posters in other groups I’m in that SDD and FOP FPs have been available at 60+2/3.

I don’t think SWGE is going to have the punch Disney was hoping for.

But that’s just my humble opinion FWIW.

I booked fp yesterday. I was able to get SDD at 60+2, but evening time only. I was able to get pick of my times for FOP for 60+6. I had open availability for all my MK days (mine train, all the mountains)

HS was tricky because the new/old tiering is in effect. Pretty much anything we wanted was a tier 1, so we have 2 tier 2's that we never really had to have a fp for. Star tours and Little Mermaid.

My story is the same as the above, yesterday was my FP day and I was able to grab everything I wanted at just about the right time I wanted. I planned our DHS days at 60+4 and 60+6 in hopes that we could get SDD and that worked perfectly. I was even able to get FOP at 60+1, it's in the evening but that's ok for us. I was so happy to get it-this is the Sunday before Labor Day so I thought for sure they would be gone.

Pretty much had my pick on times for everything else including all of the mountains, 7DMT, and FEA.

This is all really reassuring! I listened yesterday to the Disney World Discussion and they all said it’s just not as chaotic as everyone was assuming it was gonna be because the hotels are just not getting booked. Knowing the fastpasses aren’t all getting snatched up also confirms that it’s not looking to be a nightmare to be at WDW during the opening of GE.

Booked mine yesterday morning. I got FOP at 60+1, but in the evening. Hoping to move it up when I'm there. I got SDD on 60+3, but again only in the evening. I did get SDD on 60+5 at noon. Otherwise I really had no issue with any FP. I was a little shocked. Also many, many dining options are still available for the week we're going. I'm just not sure what to expect.

I was able to get FOP on 60+3 and SDD on 60+4. I was honestly surprised at how easily the big ticket FP's were to find, even if I had to adjust my ideal time a bit.

I booked three days of club level FP a while ago, but I had one day of regular FP to book myself last week. Was booking for the fourth day of my trip, which is the day SWGE opens. I booked what I wanted first thing in the morning when my window opened, but checked later for FOP, SDD, and SDMT out of curiosity. FOP had evening availability and the others had late afternoon and evening. Probably just because SWGE and F&W both start that day, but it did give me a little glimmer of hope that maybe the parks won’t be as slammed packed as predicted.

Same here, I could actually get slinky dog late on 60+1!
