Does everyone on the reservation need to participate in the test? My travel companion is not so keen on wearing the magic band.

Need some quick opinions.... Would you change your resort to be a part of the FP+ Test? Planning to 10/25-10/29, with reservations at POFQ. Was thinking of changing to POR, because I read that it was one of the resorts taking part in the test. Just wondering.

I think it started last year. The MYW Florida resident passes now have the same blackout dates as the seasonal annual passes. 3/31/12-4/12/12 6/9/12-8/16/12 12/20/12-1/04/13 I now purchase the seasonal pass and then upgrade if I decide to visit during the blackout dates.

I have purchased FL resident tickets at the resort before. My parents actually bought them at POR this past January. Word of caution, Florida Resident passes are blackout from 3/23- 4/5.

May 17th- 21st Port Orleans Riverside

FYI- Just got through, was able to sign up for November 3rd @5pm. Just happened to be at WDW at the right time. Looking forward to seeing Fantasyland.

My family has a trip planned for the end of January and we have reservations for three rooms at POFQ using an AAA rate. I am waiting for either Florida resident or annual pass discount rates to come out for our dates to lower the price. Just wondering, how many rooms can I reserve using my...

I called yesterday for November 2-6 and I got for an AAA discounted rate at POFQ. I save over $125 dollars from the listed rates but, with being a Florida resident and passholder I know the rates will be lower My suggestion (and this is what I did) is call to reserve the room, and when the...

Stayed at the Dolphin before using a teacher rate, it was OK, and I am actually staying this weekend at the Swan accompanying my friend to a conference. The convenience was great, but with the discounts I can get at a Disney Resort (Florida resident, passholder, and tables in wonderland), I...

Thanks for all the suggestions. If it was another time of year I would have stayed at WL. But, since I am going for the F&W Festival, I am planning to stay at one of the closest moderate, POFQ. Since the passholder and Florida resident discounts not out yet I asked and got an AAA rate, and...

I am planning to visit November 3-6, 2012 during the F&W Festival. I looking into staying in a Deluxe resort and attending the festival for the first time. I narrowed it down to the Wilderness or Animal Kingdom Lodge, staying in a standard view room. I know that staying at an EPCOT resort would...

I was looking at Florida Resident passes for my family's upcoming trip on Jan 2- Jan 5, 2013. There two things that were mentioned that I have not seen before: Florida Resident 3-Day and 4-Days Tickets expire 6 months after first use OR December 18, 2013, whichever comes first and may be...

My family, myself, my parents, my sister and brother in law, my nephew (2yrs old), my brother in law's sister and the possibly my brother in laws parents are thinking of going to the world Jan 2- Jan 6, 2013. (8 adults and one infant) I have been trying to think of the best accommodations for...

Have several visits planned for the next year, and I was thinking of purchasing a Florida resident seasonal pass for the first time, knowing that there are blackout dates during most or all of the summer. My question, if I decide to visit during the blackout dates of the pass, can I upgrade...

I have a solo trip planned for July 23- July 30 staying @SSR. I have already done Keys to the Kingdom and Undiscovered EPCOT tours, so I decided to try the Backstage Magic tour this time. What are you experiences about this tour and are there many repeat elements from the tours I have already...
