Another FP+ Issue.

I can understand your points above, however, I visit the World several times per year and have always found that more FPs open up as time gets closer and on the day of. This is during peak season and the beginning of December. It has been when I've made FPs for anywhere from one to five people. It does happen. Why? I'm not sure, but I don't believe that Disney holds FPs and releases them later. I attribute it to people moving around their activities/schedules.

Just as an example, I was able to make FPs for tomorrow just now. At MK, there's a ton available including the Festival of Fantasy Parade which can be very difficult to get. Others available include Peter Pan, Big Thunder, Buzz, Space, Splash, etc.

At Epcot, I just got a Soarin' FP for 40 minutes from now. Mission Space, Test Track, etc. are also available.

My point here is that it is okay not to wait up until midnight to get FPs and, if what you want is not available far out, to check back again as time gets closer to your trip. Things do open up.

Things may open up. And if you're lucky they'll be the things you want and they won't interfere with ADRs or other plans you've made. Again, MK is open tomorrow from 8am-midnight, so 16 operational hours. When we go in October, there are 4 MNSSHP every week, on those days the park closes to general visitors at 7, so we're only looking at 10 operational hours. Also how many people are in your party? Smaller parties have an advantage with FP+.

And we're not talking about someone who just overslept or booked a last minute trip. We're talking about Disney having another IT problem.

Just looked at the DIBB site and it seems Disney is starting to get the problem resolved.
A&E Meet and Greet (along with other attractions) is now showing availability on the 8th, 10th, and 11th. Still no 4th~7th though....
 
@BrittyRo and anyone else trying - They're available now!

I've just booked FPs for my last few days (October 4th, 5th & 6th) :goodvibes If you're using the app, the dates are still not 'underlined' indicating that they cannot be selected for FPs, but if you click the date anyway it should work (the website also works) :thumbsup2
 
For some reason this isn't true about Sept and, I am assuming, Oct. Mine Train is booked solid for many days up until the 26th.
I very nearly posted same comment. We are traveling the week after Labor Day and before F&W so should be very low crowds, however FPP is scarce for many of the most desirable rides.

I just called Disney due to a problem booking FP October 4, 5 and 6th for my upcoming trip. They stated there is a Global problem and NO ONE can book for those dates. They said they have no "time line" for when the dates will become available. I was told to check twice a day "once in the morning and once at night". This is the first major problem I have personally encountered with FP+, but this is crazy. o_O:furious:
Oh no!!! I'm suppose to be doing fast passes Monday evening and that's the first 3 days of our vacation :( leaving us only 2 days left after that to get fast passes :( I hope it's fixed soon or its gonna be really bad for us:(
 
It is all fixed. I just did my fp for 9/29-10/6 without issue....we are leaving the 6th so I didn't schedule and that day but the other days are fine.
