Keys to the Kingdom - success! (updated)

[LynJ]

Update: showed online as bookable yesterday, but slots didn't open until 6am today. Successfully booked! Kiddo is thrilled!

---

My kiddo has been wanting to do this tour since she read the Kingdom Keepers books at age 10. She's finally old enough and we planned it for this trip.

I've been watching for the dates to open several times a day for the past week or so. Today I had to take a family member to a multi-hour pre-op appointment and didn't have access. By the time I got home and could log on, it opened and sold out for every day of our trip.

Literally crying, because I really wanted this for the kiddo. Of course it opened while I was stuck in a hospital waiting room.

Has anyone ever had any luck with cancelations for this tour?

 

[nherbert]

definitely keep trying, especially try midnight tonight just in case you got your dates wrong, people cancel all the time, you might need to be flexible with your dates for doing it within your trip. What are your dates, so others can help if they see a cancellation?

So disappointing. Hope something opens up for you.

I was able to get a slot on this tour because of a cancellation. Keep trying!

I saw openings on other tours like Behind the Seeds in the time leading up to our last trip. It could happen.

She's 16. And we're within the 60 days, but the holiday weeks hadn't loaded until today. The error message is different for those days than earlier in the month, so maybe (fingers crossed), they're still loading the slots? Will keep trying.

Just wanted to let you know, I am also getting an error message for any date post December 25th. Before that no error message. So it could be a system problem and you can have hope. I can’t access January dates yet.

It may not have even gone up for sale yet. Id call the tours number directly and ask!

Thank you! I'd called the DVC booking line, but not tours directly. No one has it booked, so I need to keep checking.. times are listed but not opened yet.

My wife and I did it a few years back. I know you are going to love it especially since it is something you have been wanting to do for a long time coming. Do they open up tomorrow then? It sounds like we will be in Disney around the same time. Our 60 day window opens up on Sunday.

Did the tour a few weeks ago, there were a few no-shows at check-in time. Not sure if that frees up for additional people, but do keep trying.

So happy you got it! It is one of my favorite ever experiences at WDW, and I’m positive you are going to love it.

Glad you got it! I've got a couple of years left, but also counting the days until my oldest is 16 so we can finally do this.

Or like me who didn't want to do it, I promised when she was pregnant and can't do rides I would do that with her then.

Well she has collected on that promise! I booked 12/10.

 

[2xcited2sleep]

I'm so glad you were able to book this. You're both going to love it!!

 

[scrappinginontario]

So glad you got it!!
