Is this for a special occasion...? an innocent question but...

[808blessing]

Have you ever been asked this or Are you celebrating anything? while working on a reservation with Member Service?

It happened at least twice and I felt awkward both times. My real answer would have been No....I just want to go or I'm addicted to Disney but I said something like I am celebrating Disneyland 70th!

Were they going to pixie dust me? Being nosy? I wondered that later.

At the time I felt sorta weird like I don't have a good enough reason & like I want to hide the fact that I felt a bit spoiled and yet quite excited at the same time.

Has this happened to you? How did you feel if you weren't celebrating anything special?

It doesn't take a specific date or occasion to be celebrating at Disney! We're always celebrating, even if it's just a chance to enjoy memories at Disney!

They will incessantly ask you if you’re celebrating anything, it’s getting getting out of control. In the last week I think I was asked multiple times. What used to be something special is now just annoying.

Well I can tell you in my experience it doesn’t matter. I told them we were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary (which was the truth) and didn’t get any pixie dust. So don’t feel guilty making something up.

Its a standard question that they ask.

I usually just say no just love coming here.

It's a very normal question they ask. No, it's not likely that you'll get any pixie dust when you go.

I have been asked that question a number of times in the past, and that is because, if it is a special occasion, such as a birthday, anniversary, something else, they may suggest you can possibly add things to the reservation to help you celebrate, which, of course, cost extra money to get.

Yep, I’ve been asked lots of times & always say no because we never are celebrating anything, however, this fall I have family joining me who have never been to WDW, so I told the CM who asked that we were celebrating their first visit .
