You wouldn't need to put up with the Fps at 30 days as when you check in at 60 days you can then book fast passes for any days before that so not as good as 60 days before but a lot better than 30!

As far as I know, only the camping pitches offer the 2 free passes due to the number of people but again, not sure. Others may be along to give a more definitive answer.

Thanks! I'll have a play about with linking the bookings over the weekend.

Fantastic. That's another $40 dollar saving

Can I just ask so if you want to pick your magic bands up at fort wilderness campsite you just drive there, show someone at a kiosk your booking and they hand over your magic bands and car parking badge and then you can turn around and come out and head straight to a park. Does someone in the car need to then add the magic bands to my Disney experience or will they already be added as would have already added the park tickets to MDE and booked FP. Sorry for all the probably obvious questions but last went to Orlando in 2013 and did not go to Disney so everything is new/confusing!

You are correct. You won't need the 'parking badge' though as it is just to get in and out the campsite. The free 2 days park parking is automatically on the card/magicband. The magic bands will all be linked- just make sure you go to MDE beforehand and personalise them.

Talking of MDE it shows a few “buildings” (huts) at Camp Wilderness, which is the checkin location ?

Does anyone know if/where there are car parks in fort wilderness and are they near where you get the boat to MK? Thx

The car park is beside where you check in. To get the boat you need to take one of the internal Fort Wilderness buses to the Settlement area

Oooooh, really?! That's awesome! Just checking - you do mean checking into the capsite 60 days beforehand, yes? I didn't realise you could do this, I thought you could only check-in on the day!

Great thanks. I’m thinking that will be easier & quicker than driving to & parking in MK. And a nice change of transport 😊
