Thanks all!!! I got everything I was hoping for other than I may have messed up my MVMCP day, but I will see. I booked the last day (60 + 3) first, which is our AK day. Earliest FOP for party of 4 was 1:10pm! Window opened this morning for 12/15 check in (non-park day):
12/16 (60 + 1) DHS: all morning times for TSM, TOT, ST
12/17 (60 + 2) MVMCP (no regular ticket this day, booked last after park days booked): SDMT 5:15pm (had several times to choose from), BTMRR 4:05-5:05, SM 3:05-4:05 (may cancel this one since it falls outside the party time, as we assume it's going to enter by 4pm, would not let me book a FP that ended after 6pm for any ride)
12/18 (60 + 3) AK: FoP 1:10pm, Safari 11:45, EE 10:30
I'm so thankful for all the tips on this board and thanks all for checking for me!
I too, had a ton of success this morning! I got just about everything I wanted perfectly. I arrive Dec 15th and here's what I got for 7ppl:
12/16 (60+1 or Day 2) MK: 7DMT earliest was 5pm, but got my morning Splash and BTMRR I wanted
12/17 (60+2 or Day 3) Xmas Party: I did what I have read the past couple of weeks and booked all of my FP for park days first, and then came back and did these. I do not have a 3rd ticket, so these were only booked using my Party tickets. I had no problems booking and had no error message saying I didn't have enough park tickets.... got PP 4p-5p, and 7DMT 5p-6p. In the past I overlapped in the 3oclock hours but didn't want to risk it. I have seen where most ppl had the most success staying within the 4p-6p hour timeframes. So I was over the moon happy with just 2 (instead of the 3 I would normally get). Now I just have to cross my fingers that I wont get the dreaded cancel your FP or else email.
12/19 (60+4 or Day 5) AK: I got early morning Mickey/Minnie M&G, Safari, and got a late morning FoP!!!! I could have gotten an earlier time, but I wanted a late morning FoP due to my plan I have in place.
All and all I got exactly what I wanted and the times I wanted it. The only one I didn't was 7DMT for Day 2 which I already knew going in I didn't have a chance for that. I will either keep my early evening time or see if I can score an early morning FP when they inevitably extend hours and open at 8am instead of the scheduled 9am they have now.
I will say that this morning, after I booked all my FPs, I went to modify a few times, and got the Olaf's head rolling (I was on Google Chrome). I had my ipad logged in to the app as well just in case, and was easily able to go on there and modify. I think the app actually gave me more time options than the computer.
I too had issues with Chrome and Explorer at some point and kept getting Olaf. I had a backup with the app on my phone and between my laptop and it, I was able to maneuver where I needed to go. Like you it was only when I came back to modify did I have an issue. Eventually it started working on my laptop again. For me the laptop gave me better choices and easier maneuverability.
The biggest pain I had was that I couldn't access my friend's son from their reservation for some reason even though we are supposed to be linked up. Luckily I was ready for audibles and had my friends login information and was able to go back and just add his son through my friend's accout to our group with the copy feature. Still a pain, especially once I started modifying, having to keep logging in and out.
BIG THANKS TO THIS FORUM!!!!! It was a great resource and just when I thought I knew everything, I learned something new with the TP FP availability thing
