Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 Hurry! There's some kind of glitch in the MDE system, and there are tons of November FP+ slots for the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train up for grabs. I am not sure of all the dates affected, but I checked from November 5-9, and there was availability for multiple times for a party of 4 for every single day. That is unheard of! Get 'em while it lasts! TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Roller ... aka Ed 351 Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 TYVM! Just grabbed one for the day after my run (November 9). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WannaBeImagineer 98 Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 I just checked Sunday of Thanksgiving week and sure enough there was lots available. But honestly I didn't want to change my FPs that I have at Hollywood Studios. I was kind of hoping the glitch would allow additional FPs, but no luck. WBI Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WBI It looks like the glitch ends on that Sunday before Thanksgiving. I hope this doesn't mean they're going to try a FP+ only test on 7DMT for those three weeks in November. But that's what I think they're doing. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They did the same thing with TSM. Opened up additional FPs for the test, but got rid of standby. Just be prepared if youre planning on standby for this attraction.

I was really hoping that 7DMT would draw all the rope drop crowds so we could head to other rides. WBI Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There's going to be some unhappy guests if that's what they're doing. Oh man you could be right, as busy as Thanksgiving week is that could cause some big issues.

If they are running a test, I don't think they'd dare make the 7DMT FP+ only Thanksgiving week. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 Where there was zero availability before for ANY day of our trip, I was just able to snag one for 2 different days. THANKS TCD!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 Oh FYI - the days I got were 11/15 & 11/20. I didn't try anything Thanksgiving week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TCDAre you saying that they will not have a stand by line for SDMT? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Katman1356...Jason 1,140 Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Are you saying that they will not have a stand by line for SDMT? they may be testing the idea like they have at Soarin and Toy Story. So far none have gone well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Are you saying that they will not have a stand by line for SDMT?I would be incredibly mad if I wasn't able to get a FP and originally (and didn't continue to stalk it) and just figured I would do stand by and then got there and they said nope, sorry, no FP no ride.

Your buying a ticket that allows you access to the rides and attractions. It's not like a restaurant where people generally know they fill up and even at a restaurant there's still a chance someone might cancel and you can get a seat. How can they turn people away from a ride? Do they have signs before you enter the MK telling you it's a FP+ only ride?I'm sorry but that is an absolutely stupid idea and IMHO would piss off way to many people to justify even running a test.

Who's the rocket scientist that came up with this idea?I don't need to run a test to tell the Disney executives that it won't go well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 I can't imagine they're going to repeat that test with the newest "E ticket" attraction in WDW. Plus it seems the FP+ opened up for at least the first 3 weeks of Nov. It would be one thing to do the test for a day (although I agree it would be a dumb thing) but shutting the standby line down for 3 weeks would be insanity. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Momof6....aka Marty 769 Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 I have heard two theories. one is the no stand-by line test. The other is that they just figured out that they can give away more FP+ without making the stand-by or FP+ lines longer. But if that is the case, why are they just giving away more for a three week period? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AC in A2......Aaron 693 Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 I am convinced Of only one thing.......the execs deciding these things don't give a crap what we think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
