FYI I just checked on a whim for Star Wars character dinners at Hollywood and Vine for my Studios day 5/8 and I was offered several time slots. My ressie also says character dining on it. It looks like the finally got MDE updated with these experiences.

Best advice I can give is plan out your days and take time to return to your hotel for a mid-day rest!!! This will help avoid melt downs (both children and adults)!!

Great advice...go with the flow with the girls...let them decide how much you can push. When DD was the small, we did roped drops and took afternoon breaks and went back out after dinner. With FP+ that makes it great, you can schedule them for after dinner. The train was always a great napping place. We rode it for hours nonstop while she napped.

I feel so devious. I told my son they were doing the SW dining as a special event on May 4th. He said we would be there on May 3rd to get there in time. Then I told him he would be in school and that they were expensive, and he said oh well, nvm. HEHEHE little does he know we have both meals planned. The next 59 days can not go by fast enough!!!

We lucked out and got both reservations too.
Does anyone know what time the motor parade will be?

Hi ALL We just booked a trip because of the special SW dinning. As of right now we will be staying at the CBR 5/15 til 5/20. My DH is super excited. He is a big SW fan and we have never been during SWW or the F&G festival. It is also our DS Birthday on the 19th, so we have a lot going on in this short trip. I just asked for a add to the FB page and I can't wait to read up on all that has been going on with everyone's planning.

Did you get your magic bands too?

 

[KaLyn]

Did you get your magic bands too?

I doubt they did. Only because May 4th arrivals are still within the customization window. Those won't ship until Saturday at the earliest.

I know! I'm impatiently waiting on my bands too.

 

[TX Southern Belle]

We are SO close, but so far away all at the same time! I am on pins & needles waiting for this trip! I have been planing so much & it's finally almost here.

 

[TX Southern Belle]

I got my papers in today as well for our trip on May 4th & no magic bands since I still have a few days left to customize them.

 

[dixielanfan73]

No magic bands yet... The docs had our travel vouchers, yellow Magic express bag tags and mickey luggage tags. I checked MDE this afternoon and it says we have 3 days left to change them..so maybe next week sometime?

 

[MarkF0wle]

We're checking in on the 1st & no documents yet. Being in the UK though I'm sure our timings are probably different, still I want them now! Ready to go..

 

[KittyKat1978]

I arrive on May 3rd and I haven't gotten any Mickey Mail yet. I am surprised as I usually have my DME tags by now. I am not going to worry about it yet....

 

[tofubeast]

ONE MONTH TO WDW!!! It just hit me that we are a month away!! So need this trip. Real life hasn't been all that fun lately, so a trip to my favorite place is very much in need.

 

[amberdc1987]

amberdc - we'll be at Pop Century May 3-9 too! So excited!!!!

Maybe we'll see yall around! Have a great trip!!!

Awesome!! I can't wait! We are at 31 days and a wake up today! (although technically I won't sleep the day before so it could be 30 days and a wake up...i'll take it )

I promise i'm not crazy Have you checked in yet? Do you know where y'all want to stay? I'm still trying to figure out what section to request. We are going with my 2 girls and my parents. I am super excited!
