I'm wondering if they'll let you in with the confirmation notice... Now I wish I'd gotten it weeks ago, when I'd considered it before...

Just this morning. No idea if it will work out, but it's $35 I should have spent before anyway...

I just bought it too! If it doesn't work, oh well, it was only $35. I did see the member ID so hopefully it will work when we try to get the previews.

Now I gotta figure out which time I want. I currently have reservations for meals during both times!

[rachel09985]

So if the previews are 8-11:30 or 5-8:30 do you think you can show up at any time during that time frame or do you think you have to be there right at 8:00??

Thanks!

Ask again Monday afternoon. I'm assuming we'll know after some of us have registered.

Sounds good! I just bought the D23 membership hoping to be able to get the preview passes but I might not even care about this question anymore Monday if it doesn't work!

Hi, I've just boooked BOG Restaurant for our upcoming trip in February. Somewhere during the reservation process it stated something about no characters.

Will the Beast be welcoming guests (like Cindy in CRT)?

Where can I find more info on the subject?

Thank you.

If it works, I really have to get the 5 to 8:30 on the 4th. We're in Legoland that morning, Discovery Cove on the 3rd, and have a DTD ADR on the evening of the 3rd. The 4th is our DP, but we can work around that, I think. I could cancel the DTD ADR, if needed, too, but I'll just have to have my fingers crossed on all of it.

Disney is marketing BOG as a NON-character meal... it's through on-line rumors that the Beast appearance came out, it has not been announced how/if that will work.

No later than November 19.

Apparently he will just be greeting people in the waiting area. Sort of like Cinderella from CRT, however it's not a character meal as such. I personally hope he's greeting people outside so you don't need a BOG reservation to meet him

Is there any date yet for when the walls come down? When they start previews? Or not until soft opening or even after that? We will be there Nov. 3-7, would love to at least see the new areas and walk around Fantasy Land without all of those walls!
