DVC Member Preview Days for Nemo

[TiggerAllie]

Where do you think they would post the AP preview dates--somewhere on the website? I keep looking for any special announcements, including the one for the Xmas taping... We'll be there 7-12, so I think we'll miss anything they have, esp if DVC goes first.
I love Nemo! That's my cat's name. He's orange and stripy too.

I am not a DVC member. What are the chances of a soft opening 10/18-23? I was very hopeful that this would be open for our trip

 

[dgaston]

Well I'll have to add this to the plans. We're down the 14th to 17th for F & W and MNSSHP, and this will be a fun addition.

 

[PixiePop]

Woo Hoo!!! We are DVC members and we will be there during that time.

I can't wait!!!!!

 

[dvcfamily41801]

Yay!! We will be there for this. Thanks for the info, we will check it out!

Please don't flame me for this, but I have to ask...if you are renting points from a DVC member, so that your room key says DVC on it, will that get you into the preview, or do you have to actually have DVC member card with you? If we can't do it, that's fine, but I know in the past when we have rented points I was pleasantly surprised to be told that we could get all the dining discounts, etc. that DVC members get, even though we were not the actual members, because we were staying on DVC points and our room keys said DVC on them.

For Everest you had to have the Blue Member card and they were STRICT. This one is not quite as big a deal so how knows??

 

[BitsnBearsMom]

Great timing - our first ever DVC 'preview'!! In the world from Oct 8 to 21!!

So how do these work - do they run continuously all day or do they have specific times they do it? We were reading about the nemo ride on the weekend and my 6.5yo ds asked if it would be open when we were there!!

 

[MAGICinMYHEART]

Great news...thanks for posting we arrive on the 15th and I can arrange to visit EPCOT on our first day.

 

[Missus Toad]

Lucky us! Now to decide who among us gets to ride...

 

[byoung]

One week early for me, going on the 20th. Guest I can hope for a soft opening.

 

[KTink14]

We arrive on the 14th....and we are probably a little too excited for this preview..if thats possible. We've never been there for a preview so are looking forward to it. We're hoping to head over to epcot after we arrive but if for some reason we dont get on the 14th at least we have the 15th too. I have a question though...are there certain times that the preview is open during the day or is it all day long whenever you show up you show your memeber card and can ride?

 

[Bliss22]

Talked to a Cm today and they said if all goes well for the preview it will open end of Oct. to the public. She said from what she has heard that the whole build has run pretty much trouble free.

WDW has added this attraction to their disneyworld.com site. The ride will open in late October. http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/parks/attractionDetail?id=TheSeaswithNemoAttractionPage

We will be there on the 15th and I have a question. My parents have been DVC members for a few years but I am wondering would they both be owners? I am wondering this because we will be traveling with my parents and my sisters family also meaning there will be 11 of us. Will both my Mom and Dad be able to take 3 guests each (ie they are each owners or are they owners togeather)? Also would they allow one of them to go twice so everyone could go?

I was wondering that also. If they don't count my DD2 as a guest then it dosen't matter for us. But if they do, then technically we will have 4 guests(our DDs and my mom). I don't think they would count DD2 as a guest since she dosen't need a ticket to get into the parks, but I'm not sure.

At any preview I have been to anyone who was going on or to the attraction was counted as a guest. If each adult has there own membership card they can each take guests. You can always do the member previews as many times as you want but you have to get at the back of the line each time.

To the best of my knowledge, in the past, in order to get in to a DVC event, you had to show your blue membership card. Yes, if you rent points you can also book the dining plan but I'm not so sure you would be able to get into this event. It does stipulate 'DVC Members'.

I'm bummin. I'll be at Epcot on the 19th. oooohhhhh man.... and i JUST watched Finding Nemo for the 1st time 2 days ago... yes, i know, im a bit behind... but i LOVED it, and i would LOVE to do the DVC preview.... My parents are DVC members... but my friend and i could go as a "guest"...

So since DH and I each have a card, even though it's the same membership, we can each bring 3 guest?
