Ok, I'm going to ask a question that I know everyone hates
Obviously booking for the fall must be up because this is being offered in the summer instead, most likely due to the Star Wars opening. What do you think this will mean for offers for early 2020? We are hoping the Stay, Play, Dine will be offered again in January 2020 but with a change in the free dining offer, its making me nervous!
After SW:GE Disney will be moving to a new pricing model where you give WDW your bank account credentials and they just take out whatever they feel your vacation was worth. Those with insufficient funds are trained to become the next wave of cast members.

I can't get ANY page to show anything except Stitch. 2 different devices, both chrome and explorer.

Sorry, just so I got your thought correctly. You're suggesting that SW will be finishing up in November to be ready for a December open? If so, curious to know how you would know that? I hope you're right, but just interested to know if you have any insights or can tell by the construction photos and news? Thanks

It must be down all the way around because I can’t get anything but Stitch either for the past 10 minutes or so.

I've been tracking this topic in all related threads very closely. I was curious to get @Clamman73 POV, not a snarky reply by someone else.

I knew they wouldn't. Disney wants their parks as full as possible between January 1 2019 and whenever GE opens. Announcing it now would just encourage people to cancel and re-book for a later date.

Welcome back to work, Cast Members! Now enjoy crabby people who've been on hold for hours trying to book their *free* dining.
(Sincerely, I do hope those for whom it works out get the free dining and have a wonderful time.)

Just guessing looking at the aerials. Seems like a lot to do getting everything done with what you see outside plus the rides, etc with the size of the area. I’m going probably Halloween week regardless if it’s open or not. Personally it would be cool if it does open October. Just feels like an early December opening.

Plus, cast, AP, DVC and soft openings to work the bugs out. It says Fall od 2019 - it could be all the way up to December 20th. They are behind schedule.

From a business standpoint this outage is costing them millions. I’m sure the outsourced IT people are on it...penny wise nickel foolish.

This happens every time it seems like. Makes me wonder why they dropped all 3 discounts in one day? I can’t even pay my balance off lol. I was able to book early this morning but it only charged me the one night deposit. I am giving up for the day. Just thankful I was able to book and get what I wanted before it crashed.

I just got off the phone with them and it's a requirement to have 5 night/6 day stay but also a 4 day park hopper ticket

Call back - that CM was slightly incorrect - the minimum stay is 4 nights, and you must get 4-day or longer park tickets.I just got off the phone with them and it's a requirement to have 5 night/6 day stay but also a 4 day park hopper ticket
