My conceal and carry pistol is within arms reach...that's a dead cat...JUST KIDDING!

I'm at the 1:34 mark, so I'm getting "gunny"

I'm with you about not being happy until Wednesday but it looks like people are happy with availability today, except the POR. I'm just worried about POP being completely booked before Wednesday.

No need to worry about Pop being booked before 5/7. My TA assured me that they give out certain amount of rooms for the visa offer and another block of rooms for the general public.

I am also waiting until 5/7 for the general public offer. THANKFULLY I do not have to call and wait on hold like most of you are doing. I don't have time for all that or the patience! My TA will do that for me and send me an email when she is done. This is another reason why I book through an agency that only books Disney vacations.

DONE. 3 rooms at POP standard for end of September.

It took 1 hour 31 minutes from start to finish. 52 minutes on hold, the rest trying to get the reservations completed. After the first agent ditched me back to the line, I had a VERY nice agent who was very good at his job. Thank goodness for that!

Waited on hold for an hour but finally got though and reserved preferred room at POP for Nov1-6!!! I added the Memory Maker. Now I'm having second thoughts on that. Is it worth it? Good luck to everyone still waiting!

 

[SillyFamily]

Okay, I am going to go try the bathroom trick . . .

 

[Deffenm]

I won't be happy until Wednesday ...but I'm happy that everyone else is getting what they want! And I'm happy they're happy

Same here! I cleared my work calendar on the 7th and plan to get there early so I can use my cordless headset to call so my hands can be free so I can dis while I sit on hold.

 

[Villains_Rock]

Still haven't heard from TA... Dying here!!

I am a TA...I have been on our agent line on hold forever as well. Don't worry...I'm sure she is just patiently waiting for you

 

[thornton0511]

Oh my goodness I feel like I just ran a marathon lol! One hour fifteen minutes on hold starting at 7am and just got finished Holy Cow that was insane and exciting and nerve racking all in one! 10 people 3 rooms at CSR august 31st- sept 5th! Good luck to everyone still trying to get through and don't give up!!!

Just made res for 11/12-11/19 at CBR with FD. CSR only other mod available.

Asked about RO discount for POR she told me she had nothing. I was on hold for 1hour and 18 min. Got through while typing my last post. Actual res. took about 12 minutes.

Still hoping for something from POR though!

Good luck to all. Hang in there everyone it will work out!

I loved having the memory maker on our last trip. Its a great way to get family pictures and you can edit the pictures and add cool borders too. I do have to say though, I scrapbook so I like having lots of great pictures to work with.

Do you suppose they are holding back some of the rooms for the general public release? I am happy we have a Disney Visa, but am also worried about it being gone for everyone else before they even have a chance to try!

I sure hope so. I'm in Canada and I'm hoping there are rooms left and also, I'm hoping, hoping, hoping for Port Orleans, though I read it's excluded. We have a family of 5...our littlest boy is a special needs 3 year old who still requires a crib and also uses a wheelchair. Last May was our very first Disney Experience and the Port Orleans resort worked out so amazing for our family!!!

Is this the only way to get the photo package now? No more preordering the PP+?
