MNSSHP 2006, Ready to start planning!

[elgerber]

I think, when the October hours are released, it will apparent which nights are designated for MNSSHP. We've already seen that with September-- if the MK is set to close at 6:00, it's safe to say it's a party night

Have they been good about releasing the calendars close to the 1st of the month? My 180 date is 4/10 and I would need to know about party dates by then, or I'll screw everything up LOL.

 

[elgerber]

I got my ADR for LTT that night too! Mine is for 4:15 Hopefully it does pan out to be the 1st party night. Nothing is officail yet though! Hopefully soon!

I have a question. Are you guys in your 180+10 range, and not just at 180 days? Does that make sense? I was just calculating the 180 day for 9/29 to be 4/2, so I am just making sure the calculator is working right so I hit my dates right.

Hi! You are right with 4/2 being your 180 day mark. I know this because my first day in Disney is Sept. 30 and I'm calling on 4/3. I'm planning on attending the 10/1 party and possibly the party on Thurs 10/5. I'd like to do LTT before Sunday's party, but I'm not sure about the second party. Should I do LTT again or try Chef Mickey's or Park Fare? My daughter might dress as Cinderella and I thought Park Fare might be fun!

Are the tentative October dates out somewhere, how do you know there is a 10/1 and 10/5 party? We ate at the Crystal Palace the last two years, I like to be inside the park before the party starts. I think this year we may just do counter service, we haven't decided yet though.

Are the dates out for 2006 MNSSHP? I can't find them anywhere.

No dates for later in the month.

I got my info directly from the CM who was making my dining (she checked the day & went into another screen to see if she could sell me tickets yet). I believe also TGM's site is saying that 9/29 is the first night to.

 

[jcemom]

The dates have not been released yet. We're guessing at 9/29 because MK closes at 6:00 that evening, so it's a pretty good bet there's a party. As for those of us 'choosing' dates in October, we're guessing based on the days of the week the party was held last year. We may or not be right. When October hours are released, hopefully this weekend, we should be able to make an educated guess at the party nights because MK should show a 6:00 closing time on those nights with no Spectro or Wishes.

There are no official dates out as of yet. I'm just guessing the nights based on last year's schedule. I can only hope that they follow the same schedule as last year.

I hope so! My call date is April 7, LOL!

From what I understand, March's calendar will drop off and October will be added on Saturday.

Just subscribing to this. With the hours coming out tomorrow (hopefully) I have my fingers crossed I can work out what day we can plan our MNSSHP day for. I was panicking thinking I couldn't do it until May, then reading this thread I realized that the closing times are a good indicator of when the party is going to be. So thank you to all who are way more smart than me!!

Just catching up on this thread as October hours should be out tomorrow!!!
Am getting so excited. Can't wait to plan and do ADR's And just found out my other sister is going to make it work and come down and do a weekend during our visit too.....So every thing is just so coming together! I just love it when a plan works!

Couldn't help but notice Icemom, but I'm south of Pittsburgh too..about 2 hours south in Clarksburg. Small world, isn't it?

Anyhow, here I sit checking the WDW website every chance I get, waiting for those October hours and hopeing these hours and days work out for everyone subscribed to this list!

 

[jcemom]

For any TourGuide MiKE subscribers, the site has October hours posted now, along with the tentative list of MNSSHP dates. Go check them! (They're on the forums and the Magic Kingdom park hours calendar.) For everyone else, I'm sure the other sites will have them up soon!

Howdy neighbor! I'm closer than you think...I actually live pretty close to the WV border in Smithfield. I put Pittsburgh in my profile because everyone knows where it is. So, I'm closer to Morgantown than Pittsburgh, a lot closer.

 

[TammyAlphabet]

Boy I hope those are right!!! I need the 16th!!

 

[angel's momma]

Was hoping for Sun. 10/1.

Planned to fly home 10/2.

How busy is the first party usually? Figured more locals might attend a Fri.

Off to check flights to see if 10/2 is feasible....
