Most likely. You have to reserve a spot for one of the dates on 10/8. I would imagine that the available slots would go quickly.

I got the email about this today, and read all that is on the AP site, but one thing is missing: there is no indication where I should go to register (on the 8th). Do you suppose it's the same page on the AP site?

I really don't want to miss this, and I know it's going to fill quickly, so it'd be gerat to know where to go, eh?

Anyone know how this has been done in the past?

[DCbride]

Even without the preview that weekend is already crazy- Wine and Dine Half, 5K, Children's Miracle Golf, last weekend of F&W, and some artist thing at DTD.

We will be there for the half marathon, so I am excited to at least know that I will be there, but really....did it have to be on a weekend, an already very busy weekend? Why not during the week?

 

[cmskok]

Figures that we arrive on the 12th

We are in the same boat, but today I keyed in the numbers on the back of the voucher, and it was accepted and now I see the option to register for the preview tomorrow. Let's see if that works.

 

[pmdeve]

Did you get a voucher when you purchased your pass on line?

 

[bgartz]

Did you get a voucher when you purchased your pass on line?

Yes. We ordered online. On the passholder site there is page to add your passes, one of the options was to add a voucher. not sure if it will let me register for the event tomorrow, but it is worth a shot.

 

[dlhvac]

Anyone else having trouble booking a room for this all i get dvc or regular pay for room sold out

The registration was pushed back to Oct. 15 because they're having technical difficulties.

Yes, there's a major upgrade to the WDW computer system taking place today and tomorrow, probably the reason for the delay.

I also read where D23 members are also eligible to register for the preview.

 

[crazy4wdw]

For any D23 members, it apperas that registration for the Fantasyland preview is still scheduled for today beginning at 10:00 am PST. You have a choice of times for 11/3 & 11/4.
