Seems so unfair for me. I have FP+ booked for another park that day. Going to AK in the morning so that means won't be able to get any FP at all? Horrible!!
But you could book from the hotel rather than a kiosk in the park? That would be a slight advantage and a different system.

How is that horrible? The new rules are you can get FP+ for one park in one day. They are implementing the system. You might not like it, but those are the rules.
Some find the new rules horrible.
Understood, but I don't see how you can complain about Disney beginning to implement their own rules.

No, there was no facility at the Dolphin at least for booking FP+. You had to go to the kiosk. That may have changed, but all the concierge did was show me where the kiosks were. And they were INSIDE the park gates, so you couldn't get there early and get any of it done before the park opened. And at least at the IG, you had to know what you were looking for...
They can complain because they might have spent the last 3, 5, 6 months planning their touring schedule and have now been told three days before that their plans have to be completely overhauled. Geez, let the person vent.

It's to Disney's advantage to have a fairly accurate idea of how crowded a particular park is going to be. The further in advance they know this information the easier it is to make adjustments....
With this new system they will be able to look and see how many ADRs have been set up and which park have the heaviest FP+s arranged. This will help them know if they need to add another showing of Fantasmic or second parade and other adjustments that we would never contemplate because they go on behind the scenes.
Just an observation.
No, all guests, onsite and offsite, will have access to FP+ (and FP+ only) during the AK test. You will have to make your selections when you arrive at the park at kiosks located at the entrance and near the headliners. Others are suggesting that you create a My Disney Experience account to expedite the process (if you don't have one already).
I'm at MK right now so no time to read through 670 posts. Can anyone give a quick update re: fp machines at ak?
Thanks!

Thanks for this. I still have questions.
I plan on making rope drop. Where are FP+ kiosks located? Are any at the turnstiles?
I don't have MBs. Will there be a way to swipe my park ticket at the FP return line? How will I be let in to the FP return line?
I've linked my tickets to MDE. Will I be able to make the FP+ selection via MDE before going to the park, or only at the park?
Are there any EE FP return times even left right now? I'm afraid that I'll get to the kiosks only to find all the time slots already taken.
We plan on park hopping on our AK day. Will we be able to pull FP- at other parks or will we be locked in to the FP+ rules on our AK day?
If we visit AK in the afternoon, and have pulled FP- at other parks, will we be locked out of making FP+ selections once we get to AK since we have already pulled FP at other parks?
