Additional FLE Passholder Preview Opportunities -- Update Post #40

[Maleficent53]

Just got off the phone with CM - caller ID said HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS and my heart skipped a beat! As Mesaboy said they ask you not to divulge any info - but I have to say the dates work for our family!

I am very happy girl right now!

So happy for you guys! Disney always comes through!

Just got off phone with passholder services and am now signed up for one of the additional dates. Those of you like me who tried and failed to sign up due to website and phone issues--and who took the time to contact Disney regarding your experience--can likely expect a phone call like mine. Don't give up hope! I just hope that the new dates work with your schedules.

The CM was very apologetic and nice and explained the available dates and options. He asked me not to share the additional dates so that those like me who were shut out and contacted Disney about it would get first opportunity, and I will honor that--so don't bother asking. I expect these days will be published by Disney by middle of this week anyway, if their previous mea culpa was accurate.

Disney can absolutely mess up. But this will go down as another experience for me where they did everything reasonable to make it right again.

Same here! I was just about in tears when the CM set us up. I'm so grateful that they understood how difficult it was for us Disney Lovers. So happy we get to experience the preview. I love how they handled it in the end. A personal phone call from a friendly cast member was the icing on the cake. Yay!

How can my family get in on this if we havent activated our APs yet? We wont be able to do it until we get there in November.

Passholder site says first slot that day is 8:00a to 11:30a.

Well I am on a Disney Cruise Nov 2-10 and flying home on the 12th so these do me no good

For seven out of the eleven new dates, the previews appear to go all day long, from park open all the way to 1:00a in four separate 3.5-hour blocks.

For the other four dates, The hours go from park open to 5:00p in two separate 3.5-hour blocks. I haven't cross-checked the dates yet, but I assume these are MVMCP dates. These are 11/9, 11/12, 11/15, and 11/16.

We will be activating our vouchers also when we get to the park in November. You will need to call in to the Event Services tel number once they reopen the registration. Online registration is only for those with an active AP.

It's been turned into a sweepstake. It's opened now to enter.

Hmmm it's opened but it says I don't qualify even though I have an AP valid until August 2013... any ideas why? Could it be because I'm from the UK?

 

[lovethattink]

Did anyone hear back about the sweepstakes today?

Got my email at 5:01 pm central time! We got 11/17 8:00-11:30am time slot. We are very happy with that!

Did they let folks with vouchers register for the sweepstakes? I have an active premier pass. I registered for myself and friend I'm going with. Her AP expired in Oct. she didn't renew because she is getting the special DVC premium pass. The instructions say everyone needs a pass that was valid 10/26. Think they will let her in? Folks with vouchers wouldn't have had valid APs on 10/26.
