MyMagic+, FastPass+, and MagicBands coming soon

[doconeill]

The News and Rumors sections seem to be very dead lately...REALLY surprised there is no discussion here on this...

There are plenty of articles out there...but here is what I wrote up about what we know, what we still have questions on, and my relative confidence of some of the possibilities so far...

Some details of the forthcoming FastPass+ and MyMagic+ programs at WDW

I'm estimating maybe about 3 months before first actual use by guests, as guests at the first roll-out resorts get first dibs and a couple months lead time for their FP+ selections.

Yeah, I noticed that too a few weeks back. I started a thread under misc. to add to so every time something new happened we didn't have to start another thread and we'd be kinda able to keep it together. Can you also post your info there, it is very good.

New WDW Tech Launches

I wonder if Disney can pull off MyMagic in 3 months. While WiFi worked fine in the slow periods it failed horribly between Christmas and New Years. MyMagic has only been stable or accessible sporadically and if the resorts and parks cannot keep the guests connected without dropping them once connected this isn't going to work. At the resorts the WiFi is still painfully slow, guests are not going to have the patience to fight with both the internet and an unstable website.

Disney for whatever reason has never been able to develop a website that was easy to navigate. 3 months maybe optimistic And if they launch MyMagic in a slow season and it crashes when it is crowded I cannot imagine how they will rectify that.
