Dinner @ Rainforest Café (AK)
Dinner @ Tony’s Town Square (MK)
Dinner @ CRT (MK) - To celebrate on my DD's actual 5th bday!
Lunch @ Hollywood & Vine Disney Junior Character Dining (DHS)
Dinner @ Ohana (Poly) - Timed to hopefully see the fireworks
Pirate League (MK) - For the WHOLE family!

The systems weren't up yet for the following, so I need to call back on these:
Dinner@ Be Our Guest (MK) - To celebrate on my actual bday!
Lunch @ Tusker House (AK)
Wonderland Tea Party (Grand Floridian)

I really need at least 10 more days to fit in ALL the dining I want to!!

But if we see the DJ characters at DHS before our ADR @ H&V, we'll probably do a last minute switch SciFi or Mama's.

Just so you know, you will be charged $10 per person if you don't show up!

Same here Staseiki, I was able to book all except Tusker House and Sanaa. I called and she said they haven't upload the times yet and no one has made reservations yet for them. She said to call back in the next day or two.

Hello all ~ Jannel please add me to the list; my son & I will be at French Quarter Feb 7th-13th flying out of Gulfport, Mississippi.
I've been to Disney World 5x (most recently 10 days December '11) but this is the 1st time to stay on-site & I'm super-excited!
~ 41 yrs old, own my own biz but I turn back into a silly giggling 12 yrd old when thinking about a Disney trip!
Been using DisBoards for many yrs to answer my random questions but I'm coming out of the shadows & joining in the group because this time it'll be just my son & me (celebrating his 10th ) & it would be nice to get to know & meet up with others who are visiting at the same time.
"Thank you!" to everyone for all the helpful hints & yes it is fine to send me a private message.
Now I'm off to (figure out how to) add the trip & b-day count-down tickers.

Just so you know, you will be charged $10 per person if you don't show up!

Yup! Well aware but we'll have time to cancel before they would charge us.

You got me listed under the wrong resort!!! We are booked for AofA, not Port Orleans....we are so hoping for free dining for our week, so we may be changing if AofA isn't covered anyway! Hurry up, FD!!!

Sorry about that! Got you changed to AoA! I am really hoping for FD also so we don't have to change from AoA!!

 

[jannel80]

Hello all ~ Jannel please add me to the list; my son & I will be at French Quarter Feb 7th-13th flying out of Gulfport, Mississippi.

My family and I are from Ocean Springs and going to WDW at around the same time - Feb. 9 - 16. We are staying at BLT. I see y'all are taking advantage of the Mardi Gras holidays, also. Have a great flight down!

 

[ThreeKMom]

I was finally able to book a room only as a CM!

We are booked from Feb. 3rd to the 9th at Pop!
It will be our first time there - anyone have anything we can't miss or any suggestions on room requests?

I get to book ADR's tomorrow!!
I better get busy figuring out which parks on which days and where we want to eat!

Just added one more day to my vacation! We're now arriving on the 6th instead of arriving on the 7th. We also changed some of our park days and added Akershus to our first visit to EPCOT. All changes are done and my ADR's are booked with the exception of BOG.

Here's the final list:

Feb/6 - Arrival day, no park - Narcoossee's
Feb/7 - EPCOT - Akershus
Feb/8 - Magic Kingdom - Be Our Guest
Feb/9 - Animal Kingdom - Tusker House
Feb/10 - Hollywood Studios
Feb/11 - EPCOT - Tutto Gusto
Feb/12 - Magic Kingdom
Feb/13 - Animal Kingdom - Yak & Yeti
Feb/14 - EPCOT - Tutto Italia
Feb/15 - will be a hopper day - The Garden Grill
Feb/24 - Magic Kingdom - Chef Mickey's (OOP)

We're still missing one ADR but we're most likely going to use the credit on Hollywood Studios. Nothing really stood out while planning so we'll just go with whatever grabs our attention.

I'm trying to keep our character dining plans a secret from my son so there is a surprise for our trip but this morning when I took him to daycare he told his teacher that he's having dinner with a princess this winter. I'm hoping that I won't have any problems making our ADRs next Monday. Anyone stayed in Feb before? Ever have problems getting all your ADRs? I'm hoping since its a less busy time of year I'll be ok

When did you book to get Tusker house I haven't been able to get a reservation for our entire trip? Have also read a lot of people saying they have rang and CMs saying they can't book yet!

We are travelling from the UK on January 31st leaving February 14th staying Port Orleans Riverside

I made ours this past Sat, first day I could, and had no problem getting what I wanted, except for those that just didn't have their Feb 2013 schedule up yet (Tusker House, Wonderland Tea Party, BOG).

Thank you SO much for posting that these schedules aren't up yet!! I was so confused why I couldn't book anything at the Tusker House this far in advanced, when i had booked it a few weeks in advance last year.
