I haven't visited for awhile but I still notice people talking about an '09 opening for Kidani Village at AKV. We recently closed an add-on and within our paperwork was a "Final Time-Share Plan Public Report" revised in 6/07 as required for the State of California. In it it states:
"Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas is being completed in phases. Improvements to Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas, construction Phase I, is expected to be completed Fall 2007. Construction Phase II is currently scheduled to be conpleted in Winter of 2007, Phase III is scheduled to be completed Spring 2008. Phases IV and V, both located in the new building, separate from the Existing Hotel, are scheduled to be completed Winter 2008 and Spring of 2009, respectively."
Don't know if this has been brought up before and I realize Public Reports are not always reliable but it seems to show that DVD was at least aiming for a 2008 opening as far back as June. With the recent notifications of 24hr construction noise in March '08 and the removal of the old schedules for completion on the sales site maybe this is one more indicator that they are really pushing to open earlier so they can keep those sales going. We're planning our Dec. '08 trip right now and I'm hoping for a 2-bedroom in Kidani Village!!
