Non-resort guests can book at the time that particular park opens.

Thanks! The good news: I got a BG. The bad news: I got BG 8 (used an atomic clock on my iPad to help out!) and I have a cardiologist appointment in Tampa in the morning. Watch me bring them a doctor’s note lol

Whatever it takes

Nice! Glad the CMs there were willing to accommodate.


I'm sure there is some type of grace period involved, just not sure what it is. Maybe someone else can confirm.

I did see Tim Tracker report he was told they are giving an hour grace period for now.

Hopefully they finalize what the rules will be before the official open and then highly publicize it and everyone treated the same (outside of having a good, legit excuse, should be some understanding when warranted) - I am sure there will be a desire for some to delay until it is dark out

Operational hours tomorrow are a bit shorter than the past few days - 9am to 6:30pm.

$20? That’s like $1 every 3 seconds of your ride. A lady or gentleman of the night costs less.

Well, my ticket to see Josh Groban and Analeigh Ashford in Sweeney Todd on Broadway was over $300 after fees, and the show is only two and a half hours. That’s more than a dollar a minute, which is absolutely freaking highway robbery. On the other hand, no one put a gun to my head and made me purchase the ticket.

No, they didn’t. I’m sure I’ll likewise attend the tale in Tomorrowland and fork up $20 for TRON…

So, they did not accept the doctor’s note lol. They also said GotG is about to get strict on it too. I bought a LL+ (first and last time doing that) so I got on it but I told them at city hall their customer service is terrible.

Guests who arrive past their grace time are potential $LL customers. A win for Disney.

My biggest issue is if the grace period expires prior to the estimated boarding time when you win the VQ lottery. Makes it harder to plan your day.

Getting a very low number is no longer a goal.

Definitely need the have the ability to adjust your plans around how the VQs are being called (assume you can even get one)

More to add to the "project management on the fly" that a day at Disney can be

In the case of the actual return time being much earlier than the estimated, Disney's process should be to extend the grace period to the estimate window.

I get why they want to have a stricter policy on this, since I feel the night rides will be coveted. But it shouldn't screw over someone who sees an initial estimate and plans their day around that.

Agreed, especially with the earlier boarding group times. Someone waiting for a resort bus to MK in the morning is at the mercy of the crowds and WDW's fleet management. You could get one of the earliest boarding group and miss it because the bus for your resort is running late. If you show up 30 minutes late in the morning, you're clearly not trying to weasel your way into a nighttime ride.
