Calculating Disney fast pass date

[Mini_mo]

Hi there, Call me silly but I am not entirely sure how to work out the fast pass availability for my Disney Fast pass tickets. We are off-site in a villa so therefore only can book fast pass 30 days before.

Tickets are booked through the Flight Centre as a package holiday, but we have a ticket code and all party members are linked up and in the My Disney experience app so that's all working happily.

We still have to collect the physical tickets which are the 14 day ultimate with memory maker. It states we can collect any time from the 11th December and we need to use them either before or on 31st December. It also states that we have to collect the tickets from a ticket sales location at any WDW park.

So what date does Disney use to open up the fast pass availabilty? I want to set the time and date in my diary to get in there quick!

Thanks in advance.

if you're off site it is 30 days before each park day, ie you can only book one day at a time. Opens at 12noon UK time.

@galaxyflorida, thanks for the link. So on the DIBB calculator I am defining what days I choose to go to the parks and it gives me the corresponding fast pass booking opening days. So I surely must have to go onto the Disney My experience site and define my first day at a park for fast pass to become available and book? Then this is only valid for the very first day and all subsequent days I have to book the day before?

Disney know when your tickets are valid because they are linked to MDE. So long as you have tickets linked on there, you will always be able to book for 30 days time. It does not matter if you don't have the physical tickets yet - they simply hold the information which is held in MDE. It will all work fine 30 days before

The way it works for people staying offsite is that, once you have tickets linked, you will always be able to see up to 30 days ahead of the current date and book fastpasses on any of those 30 days. Even if you're not going for another 6 months, you'll still be able to see, and book fastpass for, 30 days from now (whenever now is).

You don't have to specify your first day in a park. Instead, you just wait until that moving 30 day window covers the day that you want to book.

Brilliant! thanks. All is now clear :-)
