And while the kinks I guess "should" be worked out for FOP, this is what soft openings and previews are for. Not everything is guaranteed ... they've "opened" the land a full month ahead of it's scheduled opening day.

We're scheduled for the 22nd, lost our initial confirmation email. Tried to get conformation email resent but never got a response and it's been over 2 wks. Hoping that the 2nd email is all we need to get in. Using vaca time off from work to check this preview out, hopefully we won't need that 1st email.

Regardless of how much is open, still gonna be less crowded then when the public gets to see it.

There was the initial confirmation e-mail. Which I received. Then supposedly they are e-mailing a second e-mail "closer to the date" (apparently by or on 5/12) with instructions, even though I believe the confirmation email should have been enough ... I think we're confused on whether you received the second e-mail with "further instructions"

Sorry to post another comment about emails, but I have been told that we only as of now have the first confirmation email. The other is to be distributed by 12May2017 so still a few days.

Can't believe we are still talking about who got e-mails who didn't get e-mails. Why anyone would want to go during this time always was baffling to me. Things will most likely break down, crowds will be unbearable and food will run out. Just to say you were one of the first ones to be there? When SW opens up this will be 100 times worse. But don't fear I'm sure Disney by then won't offer free previews to anyone DVC, AP. They will just charge and make it a ticketed event and say it's the only way to control crowds, etc.

Lol. I wanted an email so i could get one but i never get them. Im going in early June to the river ride at night, can't fit on flights. Then I will walk around the land.

Animal kingdom is going to be slammed through September.

On my MDE, I now have an extra fastpass+ on May 13th for the Navi river Journey with a start time at 5pm but no end time. I am registered for the 6-8pm AP preview that day. Anyone else going to AP previews have that? No FP+ for FOP.

Perhaps the FP+ is for Pandora in general and they will scan our bands/cards for entry into the land (?). I just checked-no second email on how to check in yet.

We are also registered for 6-8pm on the 13th, and we also have the FP for NRJ (start time 5pm).

Most people seem to be getting that in their MDE now who are signed up for previews.

Just checked mine for Saturday (6-8P) and I see that same Fastpass with window opening at 5P. I guess these finally means I'm official and will be able to participate. Yeah!

EDIT- After thinking about this I'm guessing this is how they are going to allow people into the preview. They can just scan your card or MB just like at a FP entrance and if it goes green you are good to go.

Great.

I agree- I suspect this is an 'entry pass' into the land, not to any specific ride.

Here's the follow-up email (referenced in my original confirmation email) that I just received.

Quick question, for those of you seeing the entitlement in your MDE account, are you all Saturday? I'm scheduled for the the 9-11 Sunday window, but there is nothing in my MDE account, yet.

I'm on Saturday and see the FP+ in MDE. I'm wondering if they are probably rolling them out in waves by day (purely speculation)?

Isn't the 9-11AM the DVC window? Not sure if that's being handled in the same fashion or not.

Interesting. Guest Services stuck me in that slot after I contacted them about my struggles. Not DVC, so I better contact them.
