We just changed a March trip into an Easter trip. April 14-17 staying at the PPH. It's our 9 year olds choice as "We've never stayed at the PPH". It will be hard to take as my wife and I got a free suite upgrade last Wednesday night at the DLH. Corner room with a balcony...true pixie dust. Can't wait until Easter and the return of the MSEP.

We loved our PPH stay and would go back there in a heartbeat! The only reason that we are going back to DLH this trip is that we got a great rate via Dapper Day and PPH was not an option. Our 11 year old adored the decor at PPH, the beach ball pillows were his favourite! We also loved the laid back feel of the place and while others have mentioned elevator issues, we did not encounter any. The pool deck fireworks viewing area was perfect for us as well, DS is not a big fan of the fireworks crowds and noise so it was great to be able to go and watch them from the hotel.

Has anyone been able to make MSELP dining reservations at BB or AO yet?

We will be there April 3-4 for a quick trip! We're staying at the Stanford Inn and Suites. We have MSEP BB dinner reservations on the 3rd!

Yep, thats what I read on the Disney parks blog this morning
unless thats only for WDW.......?

I'm thinking that was only WDW. It says:

"For guests at Disneyland Resort, stay tuned to Disney Parks Blog for details about the Egg-stravaganza returning later this spring."

If true, that's a long time! I will be there the week before Easter, and I can't wait to do the egg hunt again.

It seems as though the entertainment schedule is a bit behind the 60 day mark so I would not expect to see MSEP reservations open up for at least a couple of weeks. As of right now, there are reservations up until March 18th but nothing beyond that, at least not that I have found.

I was just looking and can get a reservation for 4/16/2017 for the BB MSEP dinner package. I didn't take it since we won't be there until 4/22, but I wanted to let everyone know it had times available to choose up to and including 4/16! Hopefully the rest of April will open up in the next week or so.

I didn't want to make a whole thread about this so I'll just post it here. I was looking through some mementos I have and I came across our ticket from 2008 Year of a Million Dreams. 199 dollars for a 5 day park hopper adult ticket. I put it side by side with my ticket for this year. Quite a difference ROFL. I had wondered why it seemed tougher to get there this year!

Sounds like a really fun family trip! I've added you to the list as well!

That's great news! I checked earlier this morning and nothing was available, sounds like they are adding them now!

We made a dining reservation for 4/16 yesterday. For Carnation Cafe, not MSEP, but we were just excited that we could!

Are you trying for the WOC dessert party? It looks as though April has not been loaded into the system yet, I can see up to March 31 but nothing after that.

I called earlier today and they said their system was down. They could cancel reservations but not make new ones. They were hoping it would be up later today.
