Oh, excellent, we arrive Feb 25 this year, and we just bought into DVC. How does entrance criteria work. My my wife and I are on the deed, I assume our 11yo son gets entry?
Basically its a an after hours given to DVC members, correct?

Just announced on CNBC - Verizon Wireless customers with unlimited data will receive one year of Disney+ for free!

I was hoping with the hulu connection that sprint would get this.

Yeah. No matter what I did, the link showed up that way. Ridiculous.

So in the past it has been this:

Cash Room Reservation: Up to the number of people on the Members Room
DVC Point Reservations: Up to the number of people staying on the Member's Points
No Reservation: Up to 4 guests (including all Members)

If you have no reservation sign up is after those with a reservation. It is a lottery essentially to get tickets for the event. You basically need to launch the sign up page before the time and everyone on that page will be randomly placed in line to sign up. Also note you need to own enough Direct points to be eligible the event (just bumped up to 100, was previously 75 a few weeks ago). If you have a reservation call Member Services to make sure your reservations shows up properly in the system.

We'll have a DVC reservation, only a party of 3, so we are covered.
There is one on our departure day, wonder if that is included as res day. If so, maybe we extend our trip a day.
The AK one is our arrival day and we were planning on having be a low key day, as we'll be up at 3:30 am that day.

You can at minimum get passes for everyone in your room. (Assuming you are staying on points.) I believe that you are typically allowed to get 6 passes, but it may have changed since we last went. If you don't have a DVC room booked, may be tricky to get in.

This will be our first DVC points stay as blue card owners.

This screams of desperation to push for Rivera sales...... Instead of fixing the problems that is making Rivera less desirable they're going to go further down the rabbit hole.

The flip side of this is that this will greatly discourage add-ons. I took the tour this week and it didn’t seem to me that sales were too hot based on the talk from the guides and bus drivers.

I still love the resort, but man they’re making it hard to get me to pull the trigger.
