Walt Disney World
21

Cant wait to try and use the info. Looks good!!

22

How often will it update? Is it real-time?

23

Looks like it could be a great addition!

24

Updated throughout the day. Depends on how well MDE is functioning. :slight_smile:

25

:heart:

26

Awesome, @Lentesta!!

27

Itā€™s live, here: Walt Disney World

28

Looks great. Thanks @Lentesta. Just in time for my trip tomorrow :slight_smile:

29

looking very cool!!

looks like a 10 minute lag between refresh and current time. Thatā€™s pretty good in my book. Itā€™s 7:22am here and the ā€œupdated as ofā€ is showing 7:12am for me.

This is going to be another time suck for me. LOL

31

@Lentesta @len is there a way to jump to another date without having to scroll/click through each day? I tried to use the tracker to get to my date but didnā€™t see a link to the new fastpass availability area from there.

32

That would be a great addition!

33

Iā€™m such a geek. LOL.

34

I just found out that ā€œavailable for 1ā€ doesnā€™t necessarily help when you have a party of 3, sadly. It said TSMM was available, so I changed one to the time indicated, then tried to change it to TSMM. It didnā€™t show up as available.

Also too, it says it was last updated at 5:42 am, so it very well could be gone by now.

35

@len Also, is there a way to switch between parks but stay on the same day?

36

All good suggestions. Weā€™ll work on these.

37

That was my thought, too. If youā€™re a geek, Iā€™m a geek.

@len @Lentesta

(who else should we tag for this?)

also, I noticed that on the park pages the crumb link (Home Ā» Magic Kingdom Ā» FastPass+ Availability Ā» 10/25/14) back to the listing of all the parks is not working.

For now, you can just change the date (which is in YYYY-MM-DD format) in the web address and hit return. For example, to see November 15 at Magic Kingdom, go to:

http://touringplans.com/magic-kingdom/fastpass-availability/date/2014-11-15

Or change the park:

Making it easier to move from date-to-date or park-to-park would be nice, so weā€™ll look at that in the future.

Weā€™re working with a lot of data here, and this tool is meant to provide a snapshot of availability thatā€™s updated periodically. FastPass+ selections are grabbed and released throughout the day, so availability changes quickly; in fact, weā€™ve seen availability change during the process of making a selection. Only using My Disney Experience will tell you exactly what you can actually get.

If thereā€™s only one selection shown in our tool, your chances of getting a FastPass+ for that attraction are not high. If there are multiple selections available in a particular hour, your chances for getting a selection during that hour are probably good.

Thanks! What are the chances of this going mobile before 11/1/14? :wink:
