Fastpass+ and 29 days out

[Jessica Meier]

Woo hoo! Was able to get the FP I wanted for every day except our Epcot day for our upcoming trip. Super excited!

Yay. Not sure I'm liking this magic + thing yet though.

Teach me Jessica!! How did you make your fp? Did they send you email? Did it show up on my Disney experience? I'm still a little confused as to how and when you can make your fastpasses and magic bands.

My Mom was on her My Magic account and they showed on hers and she told me to check mine. And there they were. Pretty easy.

I am at all star sports 28 days out and it tells me I am not in the time line. I check everyday just in case. Really wish I could get in on this it would be so nice to be part of something new for them.

 

[Jessica Meier]

I have heard of Contemporary and Pop.

has anyone staying at POFQ been chosen? I really don't want to do online checkin (I really like the personal attention you get with regular check in) but I will if it gives me a shot at getting in on this

Thanks for this thread, I'm staying at Beach Club Villas and was able to choose all my Fastpass+ yesterday at 36 days out!

Just called to try to link my account with my Mom's so we could do all 5 people's FP. Was told that our ability to do this is because of August reservations being selected but that they have extended it to September. Contemporary for sure and there were 3 other resorts selected. We should receive an email in the next week explaining the process and we will get to select our Magic Bands too!

PORS is also part of the testing in September. It is just resort specific for September, I am checking in on the 20th and was able to make all of my fastpass+ ressies two days ago including BOG lunch. I had to do online check in first to get my resort confirmation number that didn't contain letters before I could make the BOG lunch fastpass reservation. This also allowed me to customize my magic bands. There was no official email for us; if it wasn't for sites like this, I never would have known.

this would be amazing, we are from the UK and didn't book through Disney, used Virgin, and we haven't heard anything about testing, however we have manged to book our FP+ online and on the Disney Experiance app, but as you said without sites like this i would be non the wiser with what to do, id love to hear if we go invited to use the Magic bands however is this only for US citizens at the moment? with shipping the bands over to the UK i couldn't imagine it working very well
