Tomorrow marks my 60 day FP+ reservation point.
Exactly what time can I start marking them! Is it midnight eastern time or something else.. Thinking I need to be online as soon as my window opens to get 7 dwarfs mine train.

Good luck!

I had no problem logging in at midnight to get SDMT for my group of 7. We booked it for three different days during our trip. I did however have issues getting A&E. Even five days into our trip I could only get it for three people in our group and had to get overlapping times!

As Linda said, midnight eastern. However, don't panic. This morning I changed a FP selection for next week, only 7 days out, and the 7D ride was still available. It doesn't seem to run like some of the crazy ADRs do where you have to book it that second or you don't get your choice. I've heard of the 7D running out in the busier times, but early Nov (which I assume is when you're going) is not one of the most crowded times.

You'll be fine!

The one piece of advise I can give is to take what the system suggests for times, and then go back and edit. Much easier than trying to fiddle with the times right off the bat.

Well, I stayed awake until midnight eastern time (11pm my time). No availability for SDMT for Saturday Nov 8. Was able to get Tuesday evening and Friday afternoon. Going to finished making FP+ the our remaining days this morning. Just snagged a FP+ for SDMT, on our departure day.
