Has anyone successfully gotten a FP for Avatar Flight of Passage after the 60 day timeframe?
Yes. I have one for 6:45 pm on 4/8 that I got at day 60.
Yes – for day 5 of my trip at 12:05pm, but not for day 3. I would advise that you plan your AK day (or one of the AK days if you go twice) towards then end of your trip then you have a better chance of securing at FP for FOP within your travel window.
Yes. I’ve been surprised to hear folks have been having issues. I’ve gotten it no problem for last June, September, December and February. Usually plan it for day 3 or 4 of the trip. In January, we made the decision to go about 35 days before - and I was still able to get FOP for the afternoon of day 3. I don’t think we go at slow times.
Maybe you could try going to AK on a non-EMH day. Intuitively, people staying on site are likely to be the only ones making 60+ reservations and mostly gravitate towards EMH days. Just a theory, I haven’t tried it myself.
I read this question differently - I thought that @earlydisney was asking if people had any success getting a FP after the 60-day mark had passed; i.e. at 55 or 45 days out. Hope they can clarify the question for us.
Yes, we are 50ish days out and haven’t been able to snag a FOP FP. I’m wondering if anyone has successfully been able to obtain one AFTER the 60 days out.
Sorry, misunderstood! As I mentioned, I have for a trip in Mid-January. And I’ve gotten same day in September and early December. But for my other trips, I’ve hardly seen anything after 60 days.
You can. When I first booked my trip for last Sept. there were no FOP available at 60 days out. I checked daily and, within about a week I was able to secure one. Not at my dream time, and I had to rearrange some things, but I got one.
That being said, when I just made FPP reservations for June, there was very little to no FPP availability for days 1-3 of my trip, but I was able to have a reasonable selection at day 6 - FPP were widely available after 10:30 am.
So, that was my experience. If you keep looking, you will probably find some. There are MANY stories of people getting FPP for FoP all during the lead-up to the trip. You just have to search diligently and be flexible.
TY for adding some hope to my day!
