I just added you!

As of today, the daily refurbishments schedule is posted until March 30 and Indy is NOT on it. My personal prediction based on nothing is that Indy will go down for refurbishment either right after Haunted Mansion reopens in May, or around when Avengers Campus opens in the "summer". Regardless, unless the refurbishment calendar shows it going down in the next five days, you should be safe for your trip!

We just booked our trip - it is a mother and daughter trip this time as my daughter is turning 18 and graduating from high school so this will be our special (and somewhat expensive) celebration!

We arrive April 25th through May 3rd and will be staying at the Hojo!

Welcome back! This sounds like a very fun, very special trip!

Thank you!! Oh I hope you're right!! Haunted Mansion was his second wish to go on, but if he at least gets Indy we will be ok. We've been measuring him every month to see if he'll be tall enough and he finally got there!

Will they show the whole month of April do you think, or is it more likely to release information week by week?

It'll just be day by day. Each day a new date will be added (45 days in advance).

That's what I kind of figured but was hoping for the whole month. Ah well. I guess I can be patient...
Maybe...
Sort of...
If I have to...
I guess.

So my family is going to meet us on Easter Sunday to have dinner in Downtown Disney. If we plan our day to be in DCA in the afternoon, can we exit and then re-enter through Grand Californian?

I'm not familiar with the restaurants in Downtown, but it looks as if we can only make reservations for Ralph Brennan's, Tortilla Jo's or Naples. Is that right? (Catal and Uva I'd have to call for).

I"m assuming there are also casual places, but given there are 7 of us (one of whom is an 18 month old), I'd rather have a reservation.

I just booked my WOC dining package. It didn’t specify between 1st or 2nd show after it was in my app
I called today to inquire only to find out that the weekend I’m going (April 17/17/19) only has one show each night at 10!

Wow. Late.

UVA Bar is casual/walk up. Catal reservations should be on the app and on the DLR website. The on site hotel restaurants might be doing Easter buffets or special menus, so don't forget to check there, too. You should be able to enter and exit DCA through the GCH without any problems. Usually, they check for room keys in the mornings, not afternoons.

According to the DLR webpage, the Cinderella tea ends March 30th. The information for the Tangled tea is lower on that page.

Just booked our very first dining at BB! So excited!

Can someone tell me about Oga's Cantina? You have to book to go there? Is it just drinks?

You DO have to have a reservation to go there...I think it’s a 45 min time limit. There are some light snacks and then all drinks. We are going for our first time too!!! Can’t wait
