I believe this April entry is a typo & is meant to refer to me - sndral.
Also, we’ve changed our dates by one day because flights were much cheaper going Monday/Monday v. Sunday/Sunday, however since all the Jambo 2 br.s were booked we’re trying out Kidani for the last 2 nights - can’t wait to experience that 3rd bathroom & hopefully a lower floor view of Sunset savanna. Here’s the updated entry:
3/30 - 4/4 sndral - AKV Jambo & 4/4 - 4/6 AKV Kidani

And we booked our 2020 holiday trip while standing in line for Frozen in Epcot a few days ago...

Does anyone know if there are bed rails available for use at the Animal Kingdom Lodge? We will have a 2 year old with us who won't want to be in a crib but might need some extra help in a regular bed. We will be there 3/20-3/27. Thanks!

We are staying at Kidani 2 bedroom savanna view 2/15-2/19. Has anyone heard about when the construction will be done on the outside of the lobby and Sanaa? Are those still the only places impacted by work? TIA!

When I had lunch at Sanaa about 10 days ago I wandered around the overlook behind Kidani’s lobby before lunch & didn’t notice any evidence of construction.

Sanaa is a quick service in the morning. Do they accept the Quick Service Dining Plan?

 

[eeyoreandtink]

FYI for all of us with upcoming trips. FP plus booking for MFSM opened today. as of 2/19 MFSM and SDD will be tier 1, everything else tier 2. It is completely changing my FP plans for HS and book next week!

 

[starousse]

Thought I read somewhere that pretty much all of the rooms have been renovated now? Is this correct?

 

[lissiesmum]

Hello everyone I am a three time vet to the AKL and it's been over five years since our last visit! Could you please add me to the list? We will be staying July 18-22

We are going to be staying mostly at the hotel to relax and do one day at magic kingdom. I was concerned about ongoing construction so after several transfers, I got some good info. The new predicted end date is March, but I was assured April the latest

Is there anything new or has anything changed in the last five years?

We were there for 2 nights 17th and 18th January and they had a couple on display when we picked up our resort mugs... Have a lovely time and good luck getting your mugs... they look fabulous
