Disney is reluctant to tell you anything specific about those sort of schedules in advance because they change so often. What if they told you something would be coming out of refurb on a specific date and something caused it to run longer. If you had changed your vacation plans to arrive after they told you the refurb would be done and it's not, you'd be just as upset and some would say they lied. It's a Catch-22 situation for them so with rare exception they don't like to share that information in advance when guests are planning vacations. There are certainly exception scenarios to that but it's the general rule that they won't tell you in advance.

I didn't think of that.

I just thought of something that might make you feel better, if things aren't perfect ( I had a big disappointment my last trip) and was really angry at the time, but time passes, and if you love Disney it's hard to be angry long. That was an aside, I do tend to be long winded sometimes:) Any way, back to making you feel better...I took my parents for their last trip to Disney, and many things went wrong, and I felt really bad, until they thanked me over and over for the trip. They talked about how much they enjoyed riding the different boats seeing the flowers, and walking around Epcot. I'm their age now, and I could miss magic kingdom, except seeing the new parts, as the crowds are really big. I much prefer a nice meal, and evening boat ride or just sitting at the resort talking to my parents. They have long since passed and I still remember our last time at Disney together. Just be sure to take lots of pictures of your Mom and Dad, what ever you are doing....Best luck to you.

ok let me set this up, lol.....my parents are old at this point, and will most likely be there last trip to Disney...this will actually be there 3rd trip there. last time my mom was there they were building EPCOT...LMAO. so ive just always wanted this trip to be extra special....thats why i find it so upsetting that when i go this hub/castle will still look like a disaster. by all means, my trips are always perfect!!! im in love/obsessed with WDW....been there 3 times in past 9 months.

The hub will have a few construction walls and there might be crane next to the castle, that is hardly a disaster. Last time I was there both the crane and the hub construction was there, but I enjoy the whole experience of being at Disney so much I hardly noticed. My advice, relax, have fun, enjoy your trip and don't sweat what is really a minor thing.

I never have a problem with construction at any of the parks. I always look at it in a positive way. Like, hey I was there when they were building this, so to me it is like I have a tie-in to something at the parks. Or, I remember when they were building this. I was there.

I'm not trying to be nasty, but if you ask if there are refurbs, on intrusions for your pics, won't they tell. I've never asked, so I have no clue. :confused:

If you call and ask about refurbs for a specific attraction then yes they will tell you. DRC cast members will most likely never proactively inform you of certain attractions that are down during your stay. If you ask the information is easily accessible to them and they will tell you. Now for things like the Hub construction, castle with the crane, Poly construction it's generally not as easily accessible to the cast member and they rely on their recent experience at the parks and if they haven't been for awhile it becomes even more difficult to say for sure whether or not the crane is up during your stay or not. Hope this helps.

I am going next month and I kind of hope the tarps are still up. We have plenty of pictures in front of the castle and it would be amusing to have one in front of the tarps instead. (I would feel bad for other people who don't want a joke-castle-tarp picture though.)

Well, from looking at the HoJo webcam it looks like the scaffolding is down from Sleeping Beauty's castle at DL, so I guess I won't get my castle-tarp picture. Oh well, guess we will have to settle for a boring old regular castle picture.
