FP Off site ... Don’t worry

[Bobbins]

I didn’t think it was that busy even when we went end July / early Aug.

GE opening must have an increasing effect the closer we get to as more people will delay their trip so as to catch it.

But equally, don't assume you *can* get them I've seen a lot of people say that they managed to snag them at the last minute so i' sobviously possible but I think it's pretty rare tbh. We weren't able to get ToT, FoP or 7DMT and I am an obsessive who checks ALL. THE. TIME. Not once did they ever come up, even for a party of 1.

I went on the MDE this morning at the hotel at 11am. Thought I’d check if the 11am thing really worked - by 11.05 Animal Kingdom showed FOP Fastpasses!
Managed to get 2 for 12.40 - mad dash from hotel to AK and got there at 12.30.
Was on and off in 30mins using the FP. The standby queue was 120 minutes.
We are staying off site so didn’t manage to get FOP on any of the days we are here.
So was really chuffed at that - and it is a great ride.
Stayed at AK for the rest of the day (Rather than the planned pool day).
Nearly all the rides didn’t show any FP left for all day. However the longest we queued was for Dinosaur (50mins).
So keep trying for the FP - you never know!

We have been walking straight into rides, except for Hagrids!
We too have changed fast passes and dining reservations.
Guess the strong $ isn’t helping U k visitors either.

Think I must be going to the wrong parks each day, compared with last year it seems really busy to me. MK on Thursday reminded me of Easter time.
