**Official October 2015 Thread** (New & Updated!)

First off I am so excited to say that we are all going to Disney this month :cheer2:. I was checking the park hours for our dates and noticed that on 10/17 MK is open from 8am to midnight and there are no EMH either :scared1:. I am freaking out a bit because first of all, I had a CP breakfast booked at 8:05am and second, I know from reading other posts that if Disney extended their opening to 8am, that means they are expecting high crowd levels that day. I was thinking about changing our day around and go to another park, however I have a dinner ADR at BOG that we want to keep. So I talked it over with DH and we decided that I should let go of our CP ADR so we can use that time to ride rides instead of sitting for an hour to eat breakfast (we have done this breakfast many times before so it is no big deal if we miss it one trip...except it is both of my DDs favorite place to eat...ugh). Instead, I think we will head over to Gaston's Tavern to get some cinnamon rolls and Le Fou's Brew. Then after lunch, we are planning on heading back to the resort to swim and have some down time before going back to MK for dinner and to close out the park. Oh well, we are going to try our best to turn lemons into lemonade that day because after all, we will be in Disney :goodvibes.
I hope all of your trips are magical and full of Pixie Dust!!!!
 
DH and I will be arriving for our honeymoon on October 25 after spending two days on the dark side (staying at Royal Pacific) for the WWoHP. :) It's our second trip to WDW together. We are staying at the Boardwalk Inn for easy access to Epcot and the wonderfulness that is F&W. The first visit was also over F&W, but was because I was an attendant in my friend's wedding at Epcot. We would have never dreamed of going to WDW on vacation otherwise. Now we are headed back because we had so much fun the first time that we vowed to go back before we had kids. Lo and behold, it's our honeymoon and I cannot wait.

So, so excited. Magicbands arrived yesterday along with our luggage tags. October 22 cannot come soon enough, and of course we're on a red-eye because I thought we'd sleep. Ha. Yeah right. That'll happen. Good thing Universal closes early for HHN the days we are there, because we're going to be pooped!!!

Confession: I've been stalking these boards like crazy the past few months as I planned the trip, but I never felt like I had much to add, until I had a real honest-to-goodness question today. Now I'm considering a trip report!!! Craziness.
 
It's my understanding that as long as you have a Chase credit or debit card, you will be allowed in the lounge. I enjoyed checking it out last year. It's where the American Express executive lounge was once located (Amex sponsored The American Adventure when Epcot Center opened in 1982). There are great views across World Showcase to Spaceship Earth. Last year, they were issuing preferred seating passes to the Eat to the Beat concerts. Check it out if you have time.
Last year I tried to get in the Chase lounge with my Amazon Chase card and was told it was only for Disney Chase card holders

When is your departure date? I'd like to add you to the October 2015 roll call list.

There are several posts on the Epcot F & W thread on the restaurants board where people have commented that they have been allowed into the lounge with a Chase credit card which is not Disney.
 
The update to the new October 2015 thread is now completed.

Thanks! We'll have to give it a try this year. Maybe we got a grouchy cast member!
 
So excited!!! One week until DH and I arrive (Oct 16 through Oct 24) at Pop Century for our 25th Anniversary! It's our first trip to WDW and our first real vacation, just the two of us, since our honeymoon in 1990. Sitting here making our packing list and listening to Disney music.
 
We're doing a split stay... and I can't believe we're leaving in just 4 days :woohoo:
Oct 16-22 * POP & Oct 22-24 * BWI * lizzyshakuntala
 
We have 1 more sleep until we are off to our Happy Place :woohoo: ....we are so excited for this trip, not that we aren't excited for any of our past trips, but for some reason everyone is super stoked about this one. It may have to do with the fact that we are going to F&W, the girls and I will be attending MNSSHP on Friday, we are staying in a new resort (CSR), and DH and I will be watching Air Supply on Monday night, which is one of DH's all time favorite bands while our girls go off and ride rides. It could also be the fact that this trip wasn't even suppose to happen, but with all the great discounts that popped up and the fact that I had a huge credit through Southwest (our flights round trip were basically free), that made for an awesome surprise for our girls who only knew we were going about a month ago :goodvibes.

I hope you have a great visit! I am also incredibly excited about my upcoming trip. I've had a very stressful year work wise and I'm so looking forward to Epcot Food & Wine Fest, especially the wine part!
 
One week from RIGHT now we'll be in our night before hotel by the airport! I can't wait. It's just a 4 day trip at POFQ but we are headed to the MK and also MNSSHP. Magic bands painted and ready. So excited....
 
October 16-26, Art of Animation! Words cannot describe how excited we are to be leaving tomorrow! Haven’t been down since June 2013 so it’s been a long-awaited return!!!!
