Happy dance! Just booked a stay for Feb 15-21!!!

Do rooms ever open up? I'm trying to book a last minute trip but all the values are booked. Am I just out of luck?? Looking at February 5-9. Maybe I don't want to go there if almost all rooms are filled up!

We are so close!!

1 month from today! Do you usually get an email saying your MagicBands have shipped? I haven't seen anything yet and my Itinerary shows they are still pending.

Magic Bands (and super cute luggage tags) are here!

I am ready to pack! (Nothing like packing for WDW to motivate one to attack the laundry pile!)

I didn't, but I think someone else on this board did...but I went to check on my disney experience and found my tracking info...

Come on February 28th!!!!! I'm 33 and I'm going for my first time ever. Anybody think Disney will do anything special for Leap Day (Feb. 29)? I see Leap Day pins from past years for sale on ebay. I'll probably pick one of those up. Wonder if we'll get any other "perks."

I got an email this morning that they have shipped! Woohoo~!

Haha! Laughing about the laundry motivation, I am scrambling to keep up with it (normally I despise laundry), so when I'm ready to pack, everything is clean!

I don't think my wife is to excited about going, 35 days to go and she is only half packed...lol.

 

[nene0182]

Not sure what's wrong with me. 33 days until we leave and I haven't even thought about packing.

 

[Wes1stTrip2016]

40 days!! Our countdown chain is shrinking!!!

 

[PoohsFan1]

My BFF and I leave 2 weeks from today . Not sure how to pack for this trip since this will be our first time going in February. I looked on accuweather.com and they are showing mid 70's weather but I am expecting that to change as we get closer. I am thinking I will pack jeans, capris, and maybe a pair of shorts, plus of course a hoodie to wrap around my waist just in case it gets cold. Does anyone who have been to WDW the first week of February before (2/1-2/5) have any other packing suggestions/tips for us? Thanks.

I am in the same boat as you. I have no clue what to back and there are 7 of us.

I went the first week of February last year and we wore jeans and t-shirts most days with jackets in the morning and evening. It was warm enough a few days to wear shorts as well. The weather was upper 60's to low 70's during the day and down to low 50's or upper 40's at night.

I am traveling solo to Disney next month for the first time in my life. Feb 17-19 so that I can run the Princess 5k. I have to get back to PA on February 20 to see my son in his school play as Lumiere in Beauty and the Beast Jr. I'm staying at All Star Movies. Can't wait!

 

[mmounsey]

Less than 3 weeks!

 

[rainboots]

9 days!!! I am positively giddy! The extended range forecast has had a daily high from all 50s a week ago now to 80s (which would be amazing but would alter my plans as everyone would want to swim!!! )! I'm holding off on packing until the last minute for 4 of us.

 

[aquahollic]

Can't wait!!!!!

 

[ElenaJane]

I am having major packing "writer's block". The forecast looks great a week from now. But much warmer than I had planned (not complaining about that!). But it is still 50s in the mornings...but up to 80 on some days. That is literally 3 seasons of clothing in one day!
