The FP changes are live

[mesaboy2]

Doctor Disney just posted on FB. That he made one for pirates and then used it. Then he was able to make 1 at Epcot and 1 at Hollywood studios.

"And"? Or "or"?

Well that's kind of interesting.

This is really weird.
FP for RnRC for today. Window closes in 5 minutes.

Went into the app and added 2 FPs for Epcot.

The FP area of my app shows:
RnRC
Figment
Nemo

I'll keep playing...

I have park hopper and will rope drop some days. Just confused I guess. I mean shouldn't I rope drop at park A do rides, better yet do EMH there too if available then run over too park B about lunch time with 3 FP+ that l book in a few days when my 60 hits?

 

[hiroMYhero]

I think the app is allowing the additional FP based on the time the last or only FP window opens.

My FP area of the app is showing
RnRC
and 3 FPs at Epcot.

Technically, I'm still in the grace period for my RnRC FP.

I think if this is how they meant it to be, lots of people will book 1 FP for a tier 1 at say Epcot and then go use it and immediately book two at MK for later that day Works out great if you park hop. We always stay at BLT so we spend a couple hours most evenings/afternoons there.

I'm in MK today and the changes have wreaked havoc on the park today. Two hours ago I went to a kiosk and there were no FP+ available for ANYthing. CM said it was changing minute by minute and that he thought it was due to APs playing with the app. It's kind of wrecked my touring plan today.

Are FP's really as scarce right now as they seem to be on MDE? The only thing showing any availability in MK right now is PoTC and there's one time slot.

I noticed that the availability is changing constantly. I haven't booked any but I have been looking to see what's available. I checked probably 5 times in 5 minutes and the availability was all over the place. But, seriously, no FP's for PhilharMagic?!

So apparently FP+ distribution has ended for the day in MK

This could totally be people playing with it or a glitch but I wouldn't be surprised if this is how it's going to be (maybe not this bad but close). Everyone with a cellphone being able to make changes from the comfort of the line means the FPs are going to be a lot more scarce. I think thousands more people will try for a 4th FP via phone than via kiosk. But I am surprised it happened this fast. I expected a lot of people wouldn't know the first day. Hopefully it's just a glitch or APs experimenting. You'd think Disney would have run the math before making this change.

Do you think you were you able to make three for the second park because you only made one for the first park? In other words, the three for EPCOT count as two (of three) that you can make to start the day, plus the fourth FP that you can make after you've used the first three? In other other words, you only have to be within the window of your first FP now before you can make your fourth?

I have no idea. I had Canceled 2 at the time I booked RnRC so that I could research what happens when only 1 FP is in a Profile.

I wasn't expecting to be able to add on more than one for another park. To end up with 4 total for today is quite interesting.

I have tickets that sit in my MDE, so I'll see what happens tomorrow although the app really bothers me!

That is interesting. I did try to book the first 3 at different parks and it did not let me last night. I haven't tried again this morning but I would assume it to be the same

Probably but also depends on what park you plan to hop to I think. Some parks are easier to do stand by than others.

I really think the majority of the changes involve picking additional FP vs. the initial 3 (other than picking those 1 at a time or not having to pick 3 to start with)

I was just told by a cast member at an FP+ kiosk that the system has crashed. Even at Euro Disney. Her only advice was to keep checking the app for it to be back up. It's total chaos in MK. Wait times are all over the place. We have a dinner ADR at a resort, I will update when we come back this evening.

That makes zero sense. I believe the rest, though.

No idea about what's in the parks but the app and the website are working fine from here. I just changed one on the app. I'd assume the app is the same no matter where you are using it, no?

Correct. The app is based on MDE and valid tickets. FP in the park's kiosk system is based on FP data linked to RFID.

So it never said anything to you when you went to book the Epcot FP?
I tested it (on the app) by selecting a FP at AK. Once it's window started I went in to make a FP for HS and it told me I could only make them for 1 park. When I continued and confirmed my HS choice it did cancel the AK FP. Now, had I actually already used it I suppose that's no big deal. Just wondered if you got a similar message.
Or were you 3 above after the initial 3 for the day?
