***1st Week of December Thread ADR Plans, Park Hours, and dealing with Pop Warner***

[Talby]

sunday and tuesday currently


yes I think I like the flow of my trip very much now. Really I am happy doing pooh and 7dmt once each and I can FP PP all 3 MK days if I wanted to!

I think the flow is one of the BIGGEST aspects of planning. Flow matters!

 

[Candycane83]

At the moment, it looks like most Sundays and Tuesdays are the days offered, but only through September. No dates after that yet unfortunately. I'm super duper excited about the prospect though!!

Ooohh that might not work for me if it sticks on those days. Tuesday is my move day and Sunday is my Cali Grill brunch... Too bad. I hope they extend it though! I'm also on yhthe fence about this because my two year old might not be tall enough for 7dmt

Also splitting MK over 3 visits gives me 9 planned ahead, and up to 15 same day fastpasses. I should be able to do everything with that!

actually that is wrong. I will have have fewer planned ahead FPs since my first day I will be using the first one at Epcot for a tier 1. then I will make 2 more same day ones from the app but kind of early in the day I guess. then when I get to the MK I can do 3 more SDFP.
the next day I will only get 2 planned ahead and 2 SDFPs before the party then the party.
the following day I can do 3 planned ahead and up to 5 SD (one on primary, 4 on phantom) still it should be enough to do everything.

Move day and Cali Grill brunch are definitely not chopped liver! lol That's the thing I've learned about Disney; can't do everything, but everything you can do will be great. And maybe they will switch days, who knows?! (where's a head-spinning icon?)

Oh for sure it will be! I have got to get up to speed on the ins and outs of fast passes!!

i have to tattoo this on my forehead!!!

 

[Candycane83]

I haven't been in work yet so haven't had a chance to get another crack at rearranging dining. But I definitely think I'll move the SW party on dec 3. Might just want watch for EMM but its pretty much of a question mark for it (just like SW fireworks). I hope my flow can be as good as Lisa's!

 

[Mintycake]

HAHAHA!! Right here...perfect example of why I find you so entertaining!

@Lisa F or anyone else looking at Tues 12/6 for EMM?

I can't. I've been trying to get out of early mornings amd I just can't fit it in. Ive already got a ppo bog reservation so will consider that my early morning

 

[rasadkowski]

Maybe we need a PM list like we have going for SW Dessert party? I'll be watching EMM like a hawk and will be happy to PM anyone who is interested!

Interested will do the same!

 

[Talby]

Interested will do the same!

Gotcha down on my handy-dandy PM for EMM list @rasadkowski, and thanks for returning that!

to @BDFmom for bringing the whole EMM topic to the table. (I think it was you, right? lol This thread can move a little fast sometimes!)

@Talby GUILTY as charged...

My date for EMM would be Sun 12/4... unfortunately I'll be on a plane back home at 7:15am on 12/6. That is the only direct SW flight that day. I have been stalking the return with one stop that departs MCO at 6:30 pm. . Unfortunately the fairs have only gone up.

10 days on the world should be enough right??

@LisaF I have just reread the SDFP thread.... really does not look that complicated if you just in and buy a brand new set of MB... thinking about it.

There are also the tickets from the MVMCP .... and they sent me two sets for the same night. That looks a bit more complicated.

 

[Candycane83]

If anyone's interested, there's a 1:45pm BOG for Dec 8 for at least 4 people.

Do you mind adding me to the PM list about SW too, pretty please?? I hate that our planning has resorted to this, but at least we're all in it together!

 

[areno79]

@Lisa F that list of SDFP's is actually not bad. From what I had read, it seemed like it was more of a waste of time. I need to figure out the whole FP thing anyway...last time I went, they still paper FP's, so this whole system is new to me!
I'm also hoping for some pool time, but worried it may be too cold. Well, relatively cold. Being from New England, it could be 65 out and I'd still think it was warm enough for swimming!

You bet...absolutely! Lol, the lengths we go to with planning are crazy! Nice to have others in the same boat for sure.

Ditto! We are in Kalamazoo, MI. If it's in the mid 60s or above, we'll be enjoying those heated pools!

Thank you @Talby I'll refer to this too if I happen to see it too!

 

[areno79]

Thank you @Talby

 

[Maryemcd]

Yay! I do think it'd be a fun and relatively simple way for December DISers to meet up for any of us who wanted to. Have you done the Wild Africa Trek before? Our date is 12/4 and we're WILDLY excited! lol

No, have not done it. Relative WDW newbie. 3 trips but only a total of 6 park days and only one day at AK (8:30 to 3:30). Looking forward to it!! Too bad we won't be on the same tour.
