And don't forget the Christmas music version in December (or maybe you already heard it!)! I still can see them keeping GOTG as a VQ (along with Tron) for the near future. As long as the tech can handle it, it just makes so much more sense than having a standby line snaking all the way back to Test Track! Guess they'll be announcing it soon, so we'll see!
Or maybe a lot of AP holders did as you and others did, with 4-5 windows open, so the system was swamped. (I'm not trying to criticize you personally, a number of forum members posted about using multiple windows.)
I’m too scared to touch mine. What if Disney IT glitches and I lose them both? Hey, with 2 reservations you can park hop all morning long
I had a similar problem with the cast member preview for Guardians and I really doubt it’s fixed. Not sure how it would affect joining the VQ but I think you can probably count on not being able to book genie+ until after 2. So you can either keep going to the blue umbrellas again or just try to line stuff up for after 2. Like with your example of Epcot you could probably pretty easily get a time for Remy right after 2 and then 2 hours after park open book Frozen and so on. Honestly the other stuff in Epcot you don’t really need genie+ for most of the time except Test Track which has a great single rider line and maybe Soarin’. Everything else you might save a few minutes. You could also line stuff up for MK later in the day. Whatever the case, it’s definitely annoying
I think part of the "clog" was all of the people who were waiting in line, hoping the dates would work for them only to find out they were blackout dates or dates that they would not be able to go for other reasons. Based on a lot of the comments here and on FB, it seems that a lot of people dropped out of line once the information was out there as to what the dates were. Disney could have saved everyone a lot of headache if they did like the DVC previews and just gave the date out before people got in line.
I know the Confirmation I screen shot says additional details would be sent 5 - 7 before the event, so that might be the only other email you might receive.
I haven’t gotten one either. I screenshotted my confirmation page just in case but I think as it gets close the reservation will be added to my account
No confirmation for me either. Also registered for the Remy & Guardians AP Previews and never received an email confirmation for either of those.
I didn't receive mine and I am fairly confident I never will. I didn't get mine for Guardians nor did I get the other email with the additional details. I printed my confirmation page just in case.
And a good portion of the clog is many had multiple devices going at the same time.... why not require login to your Disney Account first, and limit access to one device/browser?
Yes, they scan your Magicband/park ticket. They also checked my ID. The CMs didn't need my confirmation email but if you have it I would recommend having it just in case of a problem.
You mean the personal PIN code offers that people used to have but a bunch never got the emails for so they only knew if they called Disney and asked the agent to check? Yeah, that’ll fix it.
Yes. I was responding to the poster above me who was surprised that MK was showing full for reservations when all other parks had availability. I was saying it was because MK would have had to decrease the number of reservations they accepted that day as those with a preview to Tron were automatically counted into the MK numbers that day.
Yeah we all saw the mess with Taylor Swift tickets a few weeks ago on Ticketmaster where certain people got a code and there were all kinds of problems. I’m sure it would be no different with Disney.
