Yesterday, I dropped by the TA's office to inquire about "merging" my 1-night SRO reservation into our package. I knew there would be a difference between the costs. I just wasn't sure if she could add a day on to the package with FD. Which is why we booked the SRO the final night. We just weren't sure.
So the TA said she could add it, but we'd have to pay for the dining and rack-rate on the room. I asked her to call and verify. If we had to pay more than the difference of SRO and rack, we'd just keep the SRO.
So she called and then she did this:
So I did this: What? <~~~ me whispering to her
They're letting you have FD for that night. It'll only cost you the room + taxes.
Then she wrote down the price, calculated it out to be about a $50 difference. SO I told her to book it. I had to pay the full amount of that night's stay (they couldn't transfer the funds from my SRO over), but I had the funds available, so I told her to do it.
So our PACKAGE is officially March 3-9. I don't have to check in/out on the 3rd and the 4th.
Plus ... I get another ADR to add. 
She was actually picking up the phone to call me when I walked in. My Mickey Mail had arrived. But I'll get new Mickey Mail with my new dates. I cancelled the SRO offer when I got home.
The guy I talked to asked why I was calling and I said to cancel a RO reservation. He was all "Nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" and sobbing. He also couldn't understand why I was happy. So I told him that I was cancelling a 1-night RO because I was able to add that 1-night to my Package! I told him we were still going, still arriving on the 3rd, and still staying at CBR. So it was a good cancellation! You can tell he was all excited and bouncing around in his little desk, too! He said he loves to have this kind of cancellations -- where it's not really a cancellation at all! He was worried something bad had happened and we weren't going. We are so there! WOOT! I should get my refund from that in about 3-5 days he says.
So where do I want to eat dinner at on the 3rd?
Tink, it's at 8pm at POR River Roost lounge on March 8th.
We'd love for you to come if you're able to!
TT will be open until sometime in April. So we'll have that.
Now that I say this, they'll close it early. 
I saw where they got permits to do construction on lots of queues. I saw pictures of the walls for Nemo.
Kali is supposed to be open when we get there, but I won't be surprised if they push it back, too.
Sorry that you had to deal with a bottleneck. Those stink.
I wouldn't trust DH either. Then again, Kouga & Akki are with us, he'll probably walk as slow as they do. 
I'm game for some scooter rentals.
And please do. If you want to hang with us, some or all day, you're welcome to. We'll just kick you out of the group if we do ADR things.
D, are you staying for IllumiNations? I'm not sure how long his set is. I know we're going to have to skip it.

Than maybe I should just have hand over my KTTW card and meet you all up there, but with my luck mine will be the one that gets dropped.

The Dismeet is on March 8th at Yee Haw Bob's from 9-10pm... There are a lot of us that will be in Epcot that day, and some of us would like to stay for Illuminations... It's gonna be a late night!

Just in case you get sick of Liddy - it's always good to have a back up plan.

I won't be there early though ... so no seat saving from me.
