Hi Linda,
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel and thank you for asking us another question! I’m a Walt Disney World Resort Annual Passholder too, and I know all too well the feeling of not staying in a Walt Disney World Resort hotel when you’re used to staying in more Magical surroundings…
I totally understand that the ability to make
FastPass+ selections (and even
dining reservations) during the length of your stay the moment your booking window opens when you’re staying at a Walt Disney World Resort is a hard perk to give up. However, for your upcoming stay in “off-site” accommodations, your FastPass+ selection window will open 30 days before each day that you plan to visit a Theme Park. This means that, yes, you’ll need to make each of your 7 day visit’s FastPass+ selections on 7 consecutive days.
I hope my answer helps you plan your upcoming vacation or, at the very least, your alarm clock settings for a week! Please don’t hesitate to come back and see us if you have any other questions.
Have a Magical Day,
Lynne
