Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party Central 2005

[Maridw]

How do you book that? What does it cost and where do you call for that. That sounds like something I would love to do. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

We did this a couple years ago and when I called to change my MVMCP tickets I asked to see about that and they transferred me to (407) WDW-PLAY (939-7529). The cost is $35 for 30 minutes and it leaves from the WL Porte Cochere - right in front of WL.

From Allearsnet.com"Holiday Sleigh Rides -- Enjoy a leisurely 30-minute carriage ride through the Walt Disney World backwoods from November 25 - December 30! . All rides depart from the Porte Cochere in front of the Wilderness Lodge and will return to the same location every half hour between 5:30pm and 10:00pm (December 24th hours are 3:00pm - 7:00pm). Cost is $35 (tax included) per carriage. Up to 3 adults and 2 children or 4 adults will fit in the carriage. To reserve call WDW-PLAY; Please arrive 15 minutes prior to ride time. For same-day bookings, call 407-824-2832. A $35 fee will be charged for no-shows or for cancellations within 24 hours." (The original information was from 2004, I updated the dates and cost)

What's the Yultide Fantasy Tour? I never heard of that before???

From Allearsnet.com"DISNEY'S YULETIDE FANTASY

Almost magically, Walt Disney World Resort transforms into a holiday headquarters complete with millions of sparking lights, larger-than-life Christmas trees and miles of garland. Guests take a behind the scenes peek at that magical transformation in Disney's Yuletide Fantasy, a 3-hour journey into the holiday history of Walt Disney World Resort.

Guests take guided tours to theme parks and resort hotels, learning stories about the themes of the Yuletide decorations and how Disney elves transform the parks and hotels into an annual winter wonderland. Disney's Yuletide Fantasy is open to ages 16 and older (guests under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult), and theme park admission is not required.

The program is $59 per person, NO theme park admission required. "

This sounded really interesting especially since DH & I love decorating for Christmas and love seeing the decorations at WDW when we go. We usually try and plan a Thanksgiving trip if we can just for this reason.

DW did the Yuletide Fantasy Tour last year (while the boys and I went to MK). She enjoyed it a lot and became an instant expert on WDW Christmas decorations. But it is NOT a "3-hour" tour! She started at 9:00 and returned to Epcot about 1:15. She was actually a little late for our 1:30 PS at Chefs de France, which I made knowing the tour would probably be more like 4 hours.

I got my MVMCP tickets for 12/20 in the mail today. They got here very quickly. I just ordered them on the 25th!! Anyway, I tried to get LTT for that night but we have a large party and the only thing they had available was a 735pm time. I passed that up. I had to buy 7 tickets so I dont really want to spend that time eating for the amount of money it cost us. Has anyone been successful on the 90 mark in getting something earlier? Should I keep trying to call back to see if there have been any changes or wait and try again at my 90 days?

Hi! I just changed my 5PM ADR to 4:30 at the 90-day mark (actually at 93, I think, as we're staying on-site and took advantage of the new 90+10 window). The pre-5PM slots were not given out to MVMCP guests, so if you don't mind eating that early . . .

I had originally had an ADR for 6:40pm at LTT when I bought my MVMCP tickets but called about 93 days out and got 4:30pm for party of 7.

Try calling

 

[paslea_pooh]

We have an ADR at LTT for 4:30 pm on Nov 29th, when do we get our wristbands? Will they give us our wristbands before we go to LTT and for those of you that have been there already will they let us in so Early for MVMCP so we can make it to our ADR- I hope we don't have to waste a park day admission.... I guess I don't really know, sorry if this is a dumb question.

thanks

Starting at 4:00p, they start giving wristbands to those entering the park for the party. They also have CMs with wristbands in various parts of the park.

The the past few years they have unoffically let party goers in with just their party ticket after 4:00p.

What is the new 90+10 window? Is that only if you are staying on site, going to the MVMCP and dining in the MK?

The 90+10 "rule" is that if you are staying on Disney property you can make all of your dining reservations at one time. You don't have to call 90 days out from the day of the meal anymore. You call 90 days from when you arrive, and you can make reservations for your whole trip as long as it's only ten days. I just called yesterday to make all of ours. Of course, with this new policy, I couldn't get Cinderella's Royal Table for breakfast until our last day.

I am trying to put together a quick little trip for 12/16 - 12/20 or so. My options would be:

Dec 16th..Friday
Dec 18th...Sunday
Dec 20th...Tuesday

I will be driving up on Friday late afternoon and don't think I really want drive for 3 hours and then hit the party. What do you think would be the better day to go to the party Sunday or Tuesday. I can change my dates around since school will not be in session.

TIA

Definitely Sunday the 18th!

Friday will be sold out, as will the 20th. At least historically they have been.... It will be extremely crowded on those nights. Sunday may be as crowded, but your best bet is to go that night.

Have fun!

 

[cstraub]

One person in out party may not be able to make it to MVMCP. We won't know for sure until Nov. I'm afraid if I don't buy him a ticket now they will sell out and he won't be able to go at all.
Will Disney give refunds for these tickets? Can they be sold like say on Ebay?

Thanks!!

 

[J and R's mom]

....Will Disney give refunds for these tickets? Can they be sold like say on Ebay?

Disney will not refund the ticket. But you can definitely try selling your ticket on eBay.

As far as chancing it goes, it depends on the day that you're wanting to go. Many of the nights do sell out, I'm just not sure when they sell out. Maybe someone else on this thread will know?

Just called and ordered my tickets for MVMCP on 11/29. I got ADRs this morning for breakfast that day at CRT. Somebody must have thrown some pixie dust my way 2 CRT breakfast reservations in 1 year. Now I am ready for November to be here.

 

[julesweg]

I finally got an ADR for LTT for 11/29 at 5:30.

I canceled my ADR for Tony's for 11/29 at 6:05. I figured I would let you all know in case you were hoping for an ADR at Tony's on 11/29.

You got my cancellation!! On Sunday, I canceled a 5:30p ADR at LTT on 11/29 for 7 people!!!

 

[miss missy]

I just got my second tix for the party... decided to go 2 times . Its just me and DD(12), where should I go to eat ? I can make ADR today! I have one for LTT for the first party... help. I have been to CP and thats it for ADR's. We are the casual type... any ideas???

 

[Mickey's Sister]

PLEASE HELP!

If anyone is cancelling an LTT ADR for December 1, to change to another restaurant (or for any reason, LOL), please PM or email me. The only slots available are very very early (4ish) or very very late (6:50). We're going to the party so were hoping for that coveted 5 - 5:30 - 5:45 time frame. I've heard different people say that they were switching to Crystal Palace when it became open at the 90 day window (today), so I thought maybe we'd get lucky. We are a party of 3. I currently have a 5:15 ADR at CRT instead. My DS (age 11) read the CRT dinner menu on AllEars & isn't thrilled with the offerings - a bit too adventurous for him, but he loves the food at LTT. When I originally asked him what he thought about having dinner in the castle, he thought it was a cool idea - we had an excellent time at the breakfast. But I guess I should have made sure that we read the menu first So... I'd be extremely grateful if someone could let me know if they are cancelling. Thanks!!!
