And get them 60 days fast passes - how can Disney not know about these glitches? We pay to stay onsite for a reason but sounds like offsite guests are laughing!

I think it's only one vehicle per room anyway, except for the campsite where you get two vehicles as you can have up to 10 people on a single pitch thingy.

Im glad someone said it! Booking fast passes through onsite privileges is a bit different to trying to get free parking!

I don't think off site guests are laughing at all, I was just saying generally does it mean that. After all the threads about throw away bookings, booking rooms for one night and being able to cancel it, but still keep your fps... how do they know how many cars they are letting in on one booking?

Any offsite guests could do this so how do they monitor?
You get parking at your hotel and the parks. You may be able to park at other hotels for adrs - depends on capacity. For Ohara - best to park at the ttc - it’s a short walk or you can get the monorail.

It isn't a glitch, I was advised that Disney allow the fastpass booking at 60 days by a cast member when I called the helpline.

As I won't be using the car park pass, I wouldn't want it to go to waste if the rest of my party were paying for parking unnecessarily.

There isn't a paper pass anymore. Entry is via the Magic Band being scanned. That band belongs to the WDW room occupant.

This is why I'm asking - all our tickets/magicbands are linked on MDE (hence the shared fastpass functionality) so will the car park pass also be shared?

Sorry I'm confused - doesnt take much!
You onsite will have Bands so can gain Park and Hotel access to the respective parking areas.
The offsite Guests wont have Bands. Now they can access your Resort for dining etc by showing Photo ID etc. But with no Band they can't get free parking at the 4 Parks.
Hope thats what you meant.

Thanks Mr Tom. I see what you're saying but the off-site people do have their own bands (anyone can purchase, they're just complimentary if staying onsite).

I think it may be best to just ask at the car park at the time, not sure many people have had experience of this situation!
