2005 Passporter??

[kcatoir]

Has anyone heard when the 2005 updated version of the "Passporter Guide to DCL" will be available???

Anxiously waiting to plan our Sept western,
I lent my 2003 version to a friend and I feel lost planning without it. Not worried about the old one since I would rather have an updated version.

Thanks

I remember seeing "March 2005" somewhere.....don't know how accurate that is though.....anything on the passporter website??? It looks like the 2004 version didn't hit bookstores until MAY!!

I remember hearing something about February 2005.

Yeah, the 2004 version didn't come out until practically mid-year. I was so annoyed-- I had just ordered TWO deluxe passporters, one for me one for my SIL, only two months before the new one came out. I emailed them asking if there were any perks/updates available for recent customers but they didn't even reply.

ah well.... live and learn. Next time I'll make sure I wait for the newest version!

I got this info. directly from their web site:
"Shipment Update -- The new editions of PassPorter Walt Disney World will be further delayed! The recent torrential rains on the West Coast caused mudslides that have created major railway disruptions. Our container-load of books is sitting in the Port of Los Angeles until the tracks can be repaired. We don't have a good estimate as to when the container will be delivered to our Michigan warehouse, but let's hope that it will arrive by the end of the month. For those who have yet to pre-order, we encourage you to go ahead and place your pre-order -- we're still the fastest way to get a copy of PassPorter 2005. Thanks for your understanding and patience!"

I was interested in feedback from anyone who has used Passporter in the past at the parks. How much did you use it once you were at WDW? Did it seem cumbersome to carry around? Did it hold a lot of park maps, etc. in the pockets? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
