[tooshear77]

We are trying to plan a trip from March 14th to the 20th....Thinking about staying in the pirate rooms of the Caribbean....

Does anyone know? If I want to do two rooms, do I have to call it in?

If you want 2 rooms, you will have to reserve 2 rooms.

Oh dear. It looks like the parade schedule posted on ths website are not the same as on disney website. Like Tues march 3rd they show spectro showing but disney site does not. Does anyone have experience with this. Like does wdwinfo know that Tues will be announced later.Or is it just a typo. Any way everyone look carefully when trying to make plans.

I am looking at Feb or March for a trip. I use to go to WDW as a kid but lately have done DLR as a mom because we live a lot closer. The kids fly free and play at kids price is normal for DLR. Is there anything like that for WDW for Feb/Mar?

We will be there from March 26- April 2, 2009 and will be staying at PoP! We booked our flights a year ago and now it is close to the six months' mark! Of course, just learned that Alaska Airlines completely changed the schedule. Before we flew out Wedensday late and arrived early on Thursday. Now we fly out Thursday morning , arrive around 5:30 and will fly back on the 2nd rather than the 1st as orginally booked. It will all work out in the end. [breathe deep and repeat] I get nervous because the customer service agent said it could all change again. Don't they realise we plan in advance!!!!

Hey back at ya!!!

Yay!!!!!! I can't wait! Now if I could just get a code!!!

We are driving down from NJ. Not MY idea. It's DH's. He drove every single summer as a kid to WDW. I think he's trying to relive his childhood through us.

We are also there for an offsite wedding so we would have to rent a car. Plus MIL, BIL and SIL are coming and we might all drive down together in a huge rental adn split the costs of gas and the rental. Or we may just drive in our own car and MIL will follow us.

I'm curious what type of code would benefit me being that I booked everything but air through AAA? We have our room, tickets and DDP all packaged. We have the Disney Visa and I get the impression we may get codes from that?

In the past the usual code for March (I believe) has been free ticket upgrades to park hopper and water parks fun and more. There may have also been a room discount tied in with it. But if you have the AAA code you will have to choose between them, since Disney will not allow you to use both....

On another note, has anyone been able to book regular dining past Feb. 22 yet? I have our Chef Mickey's but I still need to book the rest...

Nope. I can't book until 9/28 (180 out) but they told me nothing past 2/22

This is completely screwing up my planning. I don't even want to think about how long the wait will be to get online with a CM when they finally open up past 2/22. There are going to be a ton of people calling for ADR's...

I'm planning on coming to work late that day and calling as soon as they open! Weird you think. LOL DH may commit me to the insane asylum!

By the way....I'm in NJ now but lived right outside of Buffalo as a kid. COLD...COLD...COLD!

Anyone know when the usually release the codes for March/April? And what kind of deal you can usually get? I am trying to put together a Grand gathering w/ my whole family. My DH, DD and I go every year for DD birthday in Oct. However this year we had to cancel it due to the awaiting arrival of her new little sister. So I wanted to get my family to go seeing we haven't been all together since 86'. The one and only time my parents have ever been. But they don't feel the "magic" like we do. So I'm hoping a nice price quote will help in the matter. Thanks...

I'll just chime in here... I don't have any information; I'm just keeping an eye on this thread for anything that pops up.

DH and I are recent empty-nesters. DH has a "big" b-day in March and that's what he wants to do... Spend it in Disney! I'm game!!!

Cold would be the right word for it...I go to school in Buffalo and live here during the semester. Gotta love the ice and slush season!

You are SOOO right! I can't even imagine how bad it's gonna be.....I can call tomorrow for CRT & CM's, but I'm actually kinda glad I can't make the rest yet.....We have March hours, & EMH, but those MK closing at 7 on fridays....I AM hoping for a P&P party...but that significantly will change my game plan....so I kinda need all my parks/days in place THEN make my ADR's kwim? We don't hop a whole lot...especially to eat....but we will a couple of times - we're also planning a Discovery Cove day, and that was going to be on 3/21...BUT if 3/20 is a P&P party...then Ihave to rethink thattoo

I'm in the same boat as you...waiting to see if there's a P&P party on Friday. Anyone know how far out they usually post those??
Thanks!
