I'm getting so obsessively excited over these past few days! I'm at 75 days right now, so only 15 days until my fp+ window opens! For the first time I went in today and booked some dummy fp+'s just to get used to the system, and how to modify selections. Seems super easy! I'm feeling pretty hopeful because I even managed to get a 7DMT fp+ for less than 30 days from now, and there were multiple windows of availability! And don't worry, I immediately cancelled all the dummy selections I made!

It also makes me really excited to see my MDE page saying we can do online check-in in 15 days!!!

Now, I need to figure out which fp+'s we're going to book. It's my dbf's first EVER trip to Disney so I'm gonna have to plan strategically!

(note for any confusion: I currently have a 30-day booking window open because I purchased my park tickets separately, not as part of a package)

I have never been able to book dummy fastpasses how did you do that? I click on book fastpasses and it wont let me. I cant wait to book them

@maryj11 This is how I believe it works. If you booked a package with Disney (hotel + tickets combined) then it recognizes the 2 as going together (hotel stay and tickets) so it automatically will only give you the 60 day window before your trip dates. However, I booked my Disney room separately (through Orbitz), and my park tickets separately (through Undercover Tourist). I added each thing to my MDE account myself. Since Disney doesn't know for sure that my park tickets are specifically for that room reservation it treats them like a separate entity and gives me the 30 day window. Then, since I also have the room reservation, my 60 day window will open up for those dates.

Does this make sense?

Oh ok yes that makes sense. Mine is from Magical Vacations Travel and it shows a lock on my fastpasses.
