SOOOOOOOO excited

Feb 7 is my birthday too!
We will be disembarking from the Dream and heading over to the parks for 3 days. Not too sure if we can take advantage of the discounts with so little time.
Enjoy your very magical birthday. There is no better place to spend it!

That's a prepurchase? What's on the DVD? I'd LOVE to get the DVD with stock photos ahead of time to help me make our autograph books!

AND I just spent an hour and a half on the phone with Disney...to SAVE 800 BUCKS!!!!

I don't know whether to jump for joy or jump for relief, but I think I'll just do a happy dance instead!

Congrats on your discount, $800 is a lot of dough when planning a vacation!

Yes, the photopass+ is a prepurchase. Instead of paying $199 when you arrive at the parks, you can purchase the voucher and the CD with stock photos (400 photos) for $169. You also get a code to purchase the photoCD free of any charges.

I decided to purchase mine well in advance because I was worried about international shipping.

I was going to prepurchase anyway...they sent you the stock DVD already?

If you have a Disney Visa Card they just posted some new specials. If you don't have one they become available to the public 10/10

Not FD but seems to be more of a everyone eats at kid prices kinda thing. That and a room discount.

For us the 'Kids of all ages' offer will save us more money!

I just wanted to say thank you for posting this and giving us the heads up about special offers coming up. I check for special offers fairly regularly but may not have checked on Oct. 10 had I not been aware of this and I may have missed getting this discount! It's not appearing on Disney World website anymore - not sure if it is no longer available or just temporarily offline, but I'm just so happy I was able to get the discount yesterday. So thank you, thank you, thank you! This board is awesome!

I'm sad that Splash Mountain will be closed for all of February my kids were too scared to ride it when we were there 4 years ago and we were all looking forward to riding it this time!

Splash Mountain is DBF's and my favorite ride. I suspected this would happen, but was really hoping it wouldn't. So upset!!!

 

[katyj26]

Guess its a good thing we are going jan 29- feb 7 so that I can get a couple rides on splash mountain before the big refurb. Hopefully they stick to those dates and don't move it up. :/

You are so very welcome! These boards have helped me so much in planning our trips, I am happy to help when I can.

I just told DBF that we're just going to have to use this (SM refurb) as an excuse to start planning another trip.

 

[BiancaBernard&Penny]

It's on the Disney website under park hours

Did they just put that in? It wasn't on the hours I was looking at last night but when I picked a different week then came back to mine it was there. Sigh.

 

[LilRonGal]

My patience paid off! I had already booked the flights, but not the actual Disney vacation. Was waiting for free dining. And it came last night! I just put the deposit down a few minutes ago! Wheeeeee!!!!

Do we know for sure SM will be closed during February?
