My TA booked us fro the 12/3 party!!!

 

[BDFmom]

Well, I just asked my TA to book the dessert party for us for 12/3. We're still debating it but it seems like we need to book now, decide later. I want to hear some reviews before we decide for sure. I'm still very frustrated about the SW fireworks, but at the same time we need to just make the best of everything at this point. I'm perking up a bit with the idea of character(s) being at the party.

I would not wait... you can always cancel! My TA said they are selling fast

Just booked JBJB for Dec 5th

After an 85 minute wait, the phone disconnected!

Do I dare try again? Perhaps, we should just bypass it, we have already some amazing opportunities (hello, V&A!)...

I may try this evening regarding the BBB. Ugh, its like a punch in the gut.

My call took 34 minutes total, and CM knew exactly what I was talking about and took care of it quickly and efficiently. I would try again!

Round 2 begins....

During my call, when it started playing "It's a Small World", I thought, "Do they put this particular song on the mix to see if we'll get aggravated and hang up?"

TP just notified me of an Ohana reservation and I grabbed it (that was the first time the link in the email actually worked and I didn't get the "someone ate the page" page). I had it searching for a date range and now I realize it's for 12/3 so it's probably not going to work. Leave Epcot via monorail for a 3:30pm Ohana ADR, go back to Epcot via monorail, leave Epcot out the IG and walk or boat over to HS to get there probably just in time for the dessert party? Eh, that doesn't sound very fun. I'll keep looking for another Ohana!

with a 5:30 report time for the dessert party I'd say you had just enough time for dinner at 'Ohana and then bus or uber over to HS. I wouldn't try to squeeze Epcot in the middle of it.

OMG SO FRUSTRATING! Keep trying. the wait times will have to drop eventually.

That's a good point, I don't know why I thought I had to monorail back over since that's the way I came. haha. I have my FPs made at HS before the party though, so I'd have to change all that around too. I had planned to switch from Epcot to HS around 4ish and have time to squeeze in a couple rides before the dessert party.

@Lisa F, did you say you found Prep & Landing videos on Amazon Prime? I only see Prep & Landing Operation Secret Santa and it wants me to buy it.

Ha, that was the song when the call dropped!

 

[pigletgirl]

And just like that, we're booked!

ooh I wasn't logged in and it was saying "try prime for free streaming" but now it's not saying I can stream it. I see it on DVD though. they have it used for $10, I might just get it for the kiddo (I have a ridiculous christmas DVD collection lol)

 

[Candycane83]

[pigletgirl]

What date did u book?

The JBJB dessert party for 11.30! It actually will fit into our day well, so that's really the reason for it. I'm excited. We've never done a dessert party before.
