I booked mine directly through the website, granted it was right when they updates went through, and it is not linking correctly for me. Should I just keep trying everyday until it does? I need to put in a room request due to a disability, but can't get in to do it.

Just call and add your room request. I don't think you can add it in until online check in time anyway now that it's booked (unless that changed with the new website). They can add it on there over the phone with ease!

Lots of people are having trouble linking their reservations, including me!

Hi! At this point I would just call directly. Although, it doesn't hurt to keep trying either. I emailed through a link on the new site, My Disney Experience. my 2 replies, in so many words, we are trying to make experience more interactive but site not completely functional. like we didn't know that. Then after signature, ....all info subject to change. So print reservations you can, have travel documents, HAVE FUN @ DISNEY WORLD!

Just got our tickets! Wife and I will be going Feb 2-6. We're staying offsite since we got a great Groupon at a local resort. Can't wait to get there.

We will be in the Cars Suite February 2-9! DD 5th birthday celebration & our 1st Disney trip!

This is my first time posting. We are going feb 23- march 5 staying at pop century. It will be me, DH and DS2 as well as my SIL, BIL and their 2 DD 2&7. This will be my and my husbands 3rd time to WDW but our son and SIL family first. I will be 5 1/2 months pregnant at the time so am a little disappointed to miss out on some of my fave rides. We did a cruise on the Disney wonder to the Mexican riviera followed by 4 days at Disneyland in nov 2011 and seeing things thru my sons eyes (he was 1 then) was amazing so I am very excited to see how he is this trip!

I'm really trying to stay as excited as I was when I booked our trip but I have to be honest that all the rehabs and closures during our stay has me a little down.

First Splash Mountain, then the Disney Junior show and now Kali River Rapids..

I'm just keeping my head unknowing its still going to be an awesome trip...we'll be there on my DD's 5th bday and we'll have the new Fantasyland!

I agree. there is still New Fantasyland! DD 5th birthday is 2/6. BOB & CRT that day!

I can't even get on the website...keeps telling me that it's unavailable. I am glad I wrote everything down!

Has anyone else had trouble trying to reserve Wishes Dessert Party in early Feb? Spoke with a CM and no bookings allowed. I've read what a nightmare it is to leave MK after fireworks and thought, while expensive, at least we'd be tucked away.

Well good because I thought I missed the window already!

Nope! They've opened up later and later lately. There is a thread on the restaurants board that updates how far out people have been able to schedule that I've been keeping my eye on!

Tickets arrived!!!! 28 days till we fly in!!
As for weather watch in Feb......hmmm. It is 15 below with wind chill right now in ND and I spent the last 7 years in soggy old Seattle. What could possibly happen down there that would be worse? Rain or shine- we are having a good time!!.
Budget even came in right. Using airline miles for flights back, flights down came to $150.00 after discounts. Using Mousesaver deal at the Beuna Vista for 6 nights, and bought Disney gift cards at Target for 24% off to buy our tickets. I know I can't save a lot in the park, but what the heck, we can splurge there. This will be our first trip to WDW, and we are gonna enjoy it!!

I feel the same way! -6 here this am in SW Co! I'm spoiled with sunshine so I still want plenty of it!

Just wondering if you could explain the 24% off Disney gift cards from target? I've seen this mentioned a couple times but never inquired. I'd love to save on some Disney spending money!!

Got my ME package in the mail today!cc There were no luggage tags enclosed, just had the yellow tags you add so they know which hotel to deliver the suitcases to.

Anyone know about placing an order through Walmart to get delivered to the hotel? When I should place the order? I was going to order through Garden Grocer but I have heard of people ordering from Walmart for snacks and water bottles and it being much cheaper.

I was waiting for a response about ordering from Walmart as well. On previous trips I have ordered bottled water from Costco but would love to hear about others experiences with Walmart as it seems they might have more options as far as products go: ).

So exciting to have you all to plan with!! Our trips are all getting so close!
