Wait, you're not a dental floss rancher?

The two attractions I see mentioned most often are POC and Haunted Mansion which were largely walk ons before FP+ and now usually have 30 to 45 minute waits on moderate and slow crowd days. ...My 60 day window opened for FP+ last night and I used it for the first time. It was easier than I anticipated, actually a little fun, and I wasn't blocked from anything (except Frozen M&G which I didn't want anyway, and that was 30 minutes after the window opened). Just keeping my fingers crossed that our Magic Bands work without issue.Look to Spaceship Earth. Wait times have increased since implementing FP.

The fact that POTC and HM aren't easily rideable now is the worst thing about FP+, which is already terrible in general
For me it makes taking a spontaneous last minute trip less appealing
And that's one of the main reasons I love Universal. No reservations needed for anything which keeps a vacation spontaneous, and both exciting & relaxing at the same time.For me it makes taking a spontaneous last minute trip less appealing
I'm pretty sure they quit caring about us quite a bit before the Magic Bands came out.As a one time AP holder, that would have killed it for me long before I inevitably let it slide anyway. I got the sense that WDW doesn't really care about FL AP holders.

Personally I would like to see Universal move to an RFID system that relies mostly on a phone app but could use cards as a back-up.
I guess to each their own. Maybe because i'm a local it doesn't bother me as much, I actually enjoy the system a lot more than before. The only FP+ that you can't get a day out I find is for SDMT (and once you secure a FP+ you can always change time to pretty much whenever). Like I said though, for me, I really like it.For me it makes taking a spontaneous last minute trip less appealing

Fastpass+ is optional.
