If these are still around when my family is there I'm grabbing one for my DD. Really it's for me, but sharing is caring.

That didn’t take long. Reservations up for sale.

Edit: slightly different though, it’s actually selling a spot on this person’s Hotel Reservation to get onto their Galaxy’s Edge reservation.

And ebay has taken it down. As expected.

Hmmm, we have been watching the crowd levels at parks other than HS and they still seemed low while of course HS is at 10 during the week of and following Star Wars opening so with these 7-8am openings at MK and AK is it likely that crowd levels will increase significantly? I guess I will be cancelling our PPO ADRs at BOG for 8/29-8/30.

So basically, in one fell swoop they've eliminated PPO ADR's for 2 months for 3 out of 4 of the parks.

PPO ADRs really aren't an advantage anymore at those parks anyway.

I’m not a morning person, but I’m really glad to see these added benifits for on-site guests. It had started to feel like they were rapidly eroding.

What a sad and sick relationship. No excuses, and to have it all blasted into the public domain is even worse!

So, @rteetz does the Nov 2 magic hours mean that there is no way W&D 10k will go through HS? I had really hoped it'd be different than last year. Bummer. But at least they are offering those hours. That's an upgrade for sure.
