Anxiously Awaiting December Hours Thread! - WE'VE GOT HOURS!!!!

[MyMuse]

Since I'm staying off-site, I have to make ADRs daily!

*groan* Soooo, not looking fwd to that! The only one I'm really worried about is Candlelight Processional and I think my friend who is staying on-site at the same time - - is going to include me in her reservation, since we were playing to meet up anyway.

Fortunately for us, we have the first two nights of our stay hours, 29th and 30th of Nov. So that will take care of HS and MK, now all that's left is to see where the AK and Epcot hours fall and which park we will visit twice. (Don't have hopper) If it is the same as Dec 08 we won't have the option of Evening hours at Epcot so we will probably take advantage of the morning hours.

MVMCP has been pretty consistently Sun, Tues, Thurs & Fri the past few years in December.

We have access to the MMVMCP dates as per the WDW site:

"The event will be held from 7pm — 12am on the following dates in 2009:

November 10, 12, 13, 15, 17, 19, 20, 29
December 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15, 17, 18"

Going down on the 25th through Jan 2. I'm a planner from way back, and this waiting is driving me nuts.

I have a question for you guys! When it is your date to make the ADR's are you getting up and getting online to do them at 6am or waiting until 7am to call?

I'm honestly torn about it. While I've played around a lot with the online ressie's I sort of think it is a pain and is easier to just do them all on the phone with a live person.

What do you guys think?

I made on-line ADRs this morning and it was really easy. It took me about 30 minutes to make 11 ADRs. Give it a try since you can make them an hour earlier. I only had to call about the F! dining package.

I called Disney the other night to see if I could find out about Fantasmic, but they said they didn't know. One of my BFF is a cast member and hasn't heard anything either. It is driving me crazy!!!

CM this morning couldn't give me any info about December F! dates either. We decided to go 11/30 and get the package since December was unknown.

Thanks for the link Ann! I will mesh this years MVMCP dates and see how it looks.

 

[TinkfromTX]

we are heading down December 23 to Jan. 2. We are not staying on property this time. I know I can make my ADR's 90 days in advance but will I have to call every day for the exact 90 days or will I be able to do it all with the first day of my stay?

TIA for your input and help,
Alison

I believe the rule is if you're not on property you have to call back every day

I was going to book F! for 11/30, too, but my DD wants to go to Teppan Edo for her bday and that is the only other night there is no MVMCP, which we are skipping. Sooooo, everyone keep their fingers crossed. What restaurant did you pick? Did you get your first choice? We really want Mama Melrose!!

 

[soaringirl]

Hi everybody! didn't read all the answers, so sorry if this been asked before:
can I make the candelight procession package on line? or those are by phone?
I'm also excited to see the December hours, and excited to make my ADRs! So I too want to wake up early!! Le Cellier is a must for us, it's been our favorite and we don't want to miss it! Now I'm bringing another family, so there's 9 of us!

So, MK will close at 7:00 on those days, right? And no evening parade?

I was thrilled to get Mama Melrose's at 3:55 p.m. This should give us just enough time to eat and then head over for the 6:30 show.

Have a good time at Teppan Edo!

Have I missed something? Have the Dec. hours been posted yet? Where? We are starting our vacation 11/29 so we can plan our ADRs for two days but the 12/1-12/5 we are still up in the air and I nave no idea what to do.
Does anybody have any giestimates about what the EMH will be and Wishes and Illuminations? We have MVMCP tickets for 12/3 so that is already taken care of but we have missed Wishes and Illuminations both trips in Feb and May so we have to get those in this trip! My requirement, not the family!
TIA!

I do not think so. I think people are guesstimating on the hours based on last year and current trends

 

[cbrfan]

If you book the Candlelight Processional Package and guarantee it with a credit card, is there a penalty if you cancel?

 

[mickey317]

....still no December hours I really do not want to miss fantasmic or spectromagic....any idea what days they are usually held?? Do you think the fantasmic dinner package is necessary for early Dec ( alarge group)?

 

[Jen0504]

We're goin 11/29-12/5. We've never been down for the holiday festivities, so we are WAY excited! Doing MVMCP on 12/1 Yippee!!

Thanks, you, too. Hope we get all of our requests
