Hi everyone,
I have a few questions and thought I'd ask them all in the same post to save time. Any help you can give would be much appreciated.
Firstly, I get the whole 180 + 10 day thing, but what happens if you are staying 11 days? I can start making ADRs on the 1st April, but would I be able to book the 11th day on the 2nd April, 11th April, or something else? That 11th day will be my most important as it's my son's 6th birthday.
What if I am on a split stay? I'm staying 5 nights BWV and 6 nights AKV, and am hoping I can make 10 days worth of booking (rather than 5) at the 180 day mark. I asked this question a few weeks back, but got two very different answers. I'm hoping someone else might be able to shed more light on this question.
Thirdly, does Disney usually release park hours and EMH at least 10 days before the 180 day mark? If not, how do people decide where to book? Similarly, does anyone know when MNNSHP and F&W Festival dates are released as these will also affect our ADR decisions?
Lastly, has anyone spent a birthday dinner at Sanaa? If so, were you made to feel special? I'm thinking of booking a Tusker House Character breakfast and a Sanaa dinner for my son's birthday. What do people think? I know Sanaa doesn't seem like the ideal first choice for a child's birthday dinner, but the animal views looks great, the food looks delicious, and most importantly it's convenient to our hotel (Jambo) to allow for an early night (We're flying back to NZ early the next morning).
