    Is there some sort if glitch?!?!

    I just got Soarin and Test Track for the same day now!

    I went to try and change Livin with the Land to Maelstrom, but Soarin popped up as an option! I already had test track booked for that day, and still do

    Edit:

    So I figured out the "glitch" that I encountered.

    Livin with the Land is now tier 1.

    Since I was trying to change Livin with the Land (a tier 1 attraction), I was able to choose another Tier 1 attraction to replace it with.

    Not sure if this is a glitch or on purpose. Since I was "grandfathered" in to having two Tier 1 choices (TT and Livin with the Land), when I decided to change one of those Tier 1 attractions, I was able to choose a different one instead.

    Pretty cool!

    Thanks for the update. Now I'm going to try and swap The Great Movie Ride for RnRC since I already have TSM.

    I made my FP+ reservations this weekend, and I thought I was just confused! Glad to hear it wasn't me, and they really did change.

    BUT, the tier 1 choices are, well, um interesting sometimes?

    I imagine that those of us that were "grandfathered" in, are lucky to have chosen Living with the Land as an option when it was Tier 2. I usually do it following my Soarin FP, because they are right next to each another and I have to choose three. Now we get to do both Soarin and TT the same day!

    Discovered this when I had to make our selections Friday... to have to choose b/w RnRc and TSM is just wrong. We've always ridden both easily with the old FP system... now, to have to ride ONE and then pray for something to open up after we've used our 1st 3 choices (and you know it won't happen, everyone who's already used the system says it doesn't work for the good rides) and not get on the other except to wait it standby lines that are now longer than the old ones were... very discouraged.

    Thankfully, our next trip is only 2 days... and I NEVER thought those words would pass my lips.

    Well, RNRR and TSM gave been in the same tier the entire time. That part isn't new.
