Thank you and hope your family had a nice day as well.
I fully agree that parents add to the hype and can feel like it is "the thing to do" and that they have to get involved to fully appreciate things or they would be missing out. I mean, I think it happened with the running of the bulls for Toy Story Mania as well ... word spread that that was what you had to do, so more people did it which meant it became more important that you did it so more people did it, etc.
Hopefully things calm down a bit by the time we go ... actually, as long as we can get a FP+ for it we shall be good! At least they added that as an option versus the only way to meet them being getting a pre-park opening ADR for Akershus or waiting for 4 hours
Well I am here to tell you that getting a FP+ should work out no problem. We're heading down for a last minute 3 day Star Wars whirlwind trip June 5-7. Booked two days ago.
Our MK day is thurs, June 5 and there is a long list of FP+ times to choose from for Elsa and Anna that day. So I am confident you will be able to secure something once the window opens up.
what's gone are all parades and fireworks.
I was even able to score dinner at BOG for 5:30pm that night if we wanted it - but my son is choosing to do lunch instead which has a crazy roundabout FP+ reservation system.
He booked the 3 of us using an online direct link he found thru Disney for it, that sends you NO Confirmation and has NO Listing anywhere once you complete the reservation.
It does not show up on My Disney Experience and if you call Tech Support they will tell you they can't view it in any system they have access to since it's strictly thru the MK's database. Disney Dining can't confirm it either.
All we can do is show up that morning and check once we're inside the park.
Should be fun.
