Travisma 1,317 Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Gwen, where did you find the place to order magic bands on the experience site?Also, does anyone know how to add people to your reservation? Mine was made with just me on it and I don't see how to add others. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Katman1356...Jason 1,140 Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 I sent you an email Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Katman1356...Jason 1,140 Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Oh and when you log into my Disney experience it should have a customize magic bands link if you are eligible. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
magnoliafig 51 Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Do you have an AP? you have to link your tickets to your My Disney Experience to do FP+I have my AP in my profile. *whines* Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Katman1356...Jason 1,140 Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 I have my AP in my profile. *whines*Hmm sounds like you might have to call disneys FP+ issue line. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PureTcrazy...rita 380 Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 There are definitely some issues here and there with the site. Everyone in our group shows up with their AP with detailed info. Mine shows up as "ticket." I added Linda last weekend and hers even shows up. My affiliations do not list me as an AP holder or even a Florida Resident, but everyone elses does. I called today, they said they fixed it...nope still seeing "ticket." I do have fast passes scheduled though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brent... Just Brent 83 Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 There are also stations setup in the parks where you can schedule FP+. I saw the first one tonight. My friends I'm with got MB's this trip and don't like them. "Can I take this off yet" was the common reaction - and they're big WDW fans. I just used my AP and it worked fine.

PureTcrazy...rita 380 Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 I think our spreadsheet folks will love MDE. You can even schedule in times for things like the Jammitors, the Dapper Dans etc. They even have things that happen at some of the resorts like the GF orchestra that you can put on your itinerary. I liked being able to schedule FP for some of those rides that you have to rush to get there early for, but I didn't like having to think about where I was going and what I was gonna do while I was there. We have gotten used to just winging it. I am looking forward to seeing how easy it will be to change them on the fly because I am sure we will be making some changes.

CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Gwen, where did you find the place to order magic bands on the experience site?Also, does anyone know how to add people to your reservation? Mine was made with just me on it and I don't see how to add others. On the right-hand side of the home page is the option to "Personalize Magic Bands." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nicki aka Rebelstand 272 Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Rita,I have gotten to were I like not scheduling my parks before hand. I didn't like have to think about it either but at least I don't have to do the run or show up till my appointed time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PureTcrazy...rita 380 Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 and you can plan your fast passes for the evenings so you don't have to be there at the crack of dawn! Now this morning, Chris is not showing up on my MDE. It is a little aggravating. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We have gotten used to just winging it. I am looking forward to seeing how easy it will be to change them on the fly because I am sure we will be making some changes. My friend Joyce was at WDW last week. She set up her Fastpasses before leaving home. I asked her how easy it was to make changes and she said it was very easy using the MDE iPhone app. She said she probably changed them 10 times. She had HS scheduled for Wednesday and decided the night before to go to Epcot instead. She was able to change all of the Fastpasses. She said it was not difficult to learn how the app works and what you can/can't do with it... it just took a bit of patience. One think she didn't like about the app was its flow. ex: If you get part way through one process and decide that's not what you want to do, there isn't a cancel button. You have to back, back, back, back. If you finish making a change to one Fastpass, it doesn't take you back to the Fastpass list, it takes you back to the main page. She hopes these are things that Disney will improve as the MDE app matures. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted September 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 ...She hopes these are things that Disney will improve as the MDE app matures. I hope so, but Disney's track record for rolling out websites and apps that are intuitive and easy to navigate isn't very good. They tend to get it right eventually, but sometimes it takes a good long while. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted September 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 I have resigned myself to the fact that we shall remain bandless this year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PureTcrazy...rita 380 Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 Mo break your reservations up in to two stays. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted September 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 It's fine - I'm honestly over it. Reservations anywhere around Halloween have been so hard to get, and we lucked into AAA discount for our entire stay - I don't want to mess with anything at this point. I'm just counting down the days!! :jumpforjoy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PureTcrazy...rita 380 Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 Can't you link your AP to MDE and order bands regardless of room reservations? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PureTcrazy...rita 380 Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 I'm pretty sure I saw Dave talking about that on some thread? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted October 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 Our APs are linked but I think because we're checking in before the Fort comes "online" we're s.o.l. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Katman1356...Jason 1,140 Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 If everyone goes full live as the rumors are swirling about you might be able to go down and get the grey ones on the Forts day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted October 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 Good to know, except... I don't really want the gray ones. I want the cool packaging!!! :rofl2: Ooh - but that raises and actual question...If you do get only the gray ones now (for whatever reason) can you get the color/custom ones later?
