    A plug for the touringplans "reservation finder" ADR tool

    Reservation Finder is SO HELPFUL! For our December trip, I had not been able to get a BOG dinner for our last day or the Fantasmic dinner package at H&V. My 180 days was in June, so it's been a loooooooooong search. Took a couple of weeks once I set it up, but sure enough, was able to snag both...

    What are your "waiting in line" pet peeves?

    I think that's why excessive PDA bothers me so much. I don't have kids, so outside the Disney bubble or any other family friendly situations, my mouth is pretty foul, not like Deadpool level foul, but definitely not kid friendly all the time. So if I can keep my colorful adjectives and f-bombs...

    What are your "waiting in line" pet peeves?

    Mine is 1000% excessive PDA in the queue. I don't even have kids to worry about, but I do not want to stand next to people with their tongues down each other's throats or their hands all over each other in line. That's what your hotel is for. By all means, hold hands, hug each other, put your...

    Offsite Family Joining Onsite

    I'm hoping somebody might know if the following hypothetical situation is allowed/okay. My roommate and I are staying on property at ASMu in early December for 7 nights, including attending MVMCP on the 6th. Meanwhile, my parents, two nieces, and nephew will also be in town staying with local...

    Recreation Reservations

    Thanks so much! I would have hated to have gotten on the phone and had to go, "Well, let me call you back on Monday when it's payday!" Haha! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it! I'm wanting to squish as much Christmas into this trip as possible, and the sleigh ride just sounded like such a...

    Recreation Reservations

    I'm thinking of reserving a time slot for a holiday sleigh ride at Fort Wildnerness on our first night during our December trip. Has anyone made that sort of reservation over the phone before? Do they require a credit card guarantee like a dining reservation, or do you have to pay for the fee...

    MVMCP Tickets....dining during party?

    They released ADRs for my MVMCP date of 12/6 not very long after our 180 day window hit. I just stumbled upon it, but I would imagine they're booked up by now, but keep trying. People cancel all the time.

    Looking for experiences going to DW first week of October

    My roommate and I were there the first week of October in 2014 for the Tower of Terror Ten-Miler (which was apparently the last one, strangely enough), and it was a great time to be at WDW. The weather was mostly really nice! Highs in the 80s and lows in the 60s or 70s when we were there. One...

    Anyone Going the First Week of December?

    I was hoping for NPH too, but oh well! Our Epcot Day is the 7th, so we're smack in the middle of the TBA. I've never seen the Candlelight Processional before though, so I'm sure I'll love it no matter who it is though!

    Anyone Going the First Week of December?

    I think that's definitely it. We have a 5:40pm regular Hollywood & Vine reservation right now since there were no Fantasmic packages available for dinner. I also looked at last year's schedule, and every Friday in December ended up with a second Fantasmic show, so I'm hoping if I never do end up...

    Anyone Going the First Week of December?

    Oh man! That is a great view!! I'll keep checking! Hopefully we'll be able to snag one! Not to mention I LOVE the idea of getting to ride Tower of Terror during what would otherwise be waiting in line time!

    Anyone Going the First Week of December?

    You aren't kidding! We're doing a full week at WDW for the first time, and I sort of thought I had an idea of how crazy the planning was going to be, but it is way more stressful than I thought! If I had a dollar for every time I've been on Disney's website, this website, or the MDE app in the...

    Anyone Going the First Week of December?

    Right?? I just checked on a whim since I was on there looking for a Beaches & Cream dinner reservation for our check-in day (which I totally snagged finally! Yay!) and there they were! I wasn't expecting them until next week either!

    Anyone Going the First Week of December?

    Down on the bottom of the info part somewhere I saw where it said tables available for booking beginning Thursday 6/30. I wonder if maybe Garden Grill just hasn't released their tables yet?

    Anyone Going the First Week of December?

    Also, this could be a fluke, but who knows. I had made a regular reservation at Via Napoli for 5:25pm at the 180 day mark. After I booked my 4:15pm Candlelight Dinner Package reservation today, and canceled my 5:25pm regular reservation, I went back and checked for times again and my 5:25pm time...

    Anyone Going the First Week of December?

    Just wanted to let anybody else know, I checked again today for Candlelight Dinner Packages, and they're available! Got us a table on 12/7 at Via Napoli for the 6:45 Candlelight Processional! Can't wait to see who our narrator will be!

    Anyone Going the First Week of December?

    Everything I've read up on says the packages were released the first week of July last year. Hoping that's the case this year too, because I am ready to get mine booked!

    Positive interactions with Cm

    Last year I was traveling with my family, and we had a one day and night stopover on our drive home from South Florida, and at the last minute they decided we had enough downtime to go to Disney Springs. Naturally, I was THRILLED! While checking out at Mickey's Pantry, the CM, a very nice older...

    BOG Hours Released During MVMCP

    Thanks so much for posting!! I was so disappointed that I hadn't been able to snag a dinnertime reservation for our all-day Magic Kingdom day during our December trip, so we were gonna settle for the late lunch time which was all I could get, but I've got one now for 7:00pm on our MVMCP Day!

    ADRs set! Is 'Ohana worth it?

    Last week, our bill was something like $140ish for 3 adults before the tip, I think. So $47ish per person plus gratuity.
