Too bad your trip isn't a few weeks later, I have a feeling that FOP will become a little easier to get once Toy Story Land opens and people start obsessing over getting those FP.
I'm staying for two weeks in May (May 5 - May 19) and I'm into day 5 of my Fast Pass booking, because I stay at a timeshare and not on property so I fall under the 30 day FP booking.
So far I have not been able to snag a single, and I mean even one, FP reservation for FOP. Has this become the new "sprint to the ride" attraction at rope drop? I always make rope drop so that's not an issue. I'm use to doing the sprint for 7DMT at Magic Kingdom, Frozen at Epcot, and Toy Story Mania at HS. My concern is sprinting to a new land I have never been in and finding a ride with five other people in tote will be a challenge.
I see the advantage of staying on property mainly to take advantage of the 60 day FP booking, but it would be nice if they saved a few FP's so us "30 day" people could fight it out at 7am.
Has anyone been able to snag up a FOP under 30 days?
I was unable to get one at my 60 day mark last fall. I got a Na'vi FP and every day refreshed to check. I obtained one at under 30 days out. Additionally, I got another one day of, on our departure day as we were wandering AK (constant, constant refreshing as we walked around. ate lunch). It's hard but I wouldn't say it's impossible, and a FoP FP isn't something that would make me want to book an onsite stay. If I didn't get one, I probably would have opted to go just before park closing.
I agree with PP's.
Keep refreshing.
If you can't get it, then go right before closing. The line continually moves, and at most you will wait about 60 minutes.
Any one of those in line could have done the same thing.
