Did you specifically book the Fantasmic Package, or did you just make a regular ADR? You cannot do the Fantasmic Package unless you specifically book it as such.

How do you book the fantasmic package? I looked and didnt see anything

Also, while the website doesn't say this, the F! package is a set price meal that includes your choice of appetizer, entree and dessert. You cannot just pay for a regular meal. I would call to book rather than do it online so they can tell you exactly what the cost will be, because it is different depending on where you choose to eat. Also, there are only 3 restaurants that offer the package, and the seating will be for the first F! showing of the night only.

I am in Alabama and have a DD who cheers allstar. What comp is interfering with your trip? We were looking at Mardi Gras week, but that is out because of Cheersport Nationals in Atlanta. I just don't think we could do a week at Disney and then dive into the insanity of a 1000 team comp!

Hey fellow Alabamian!

Last year the free dining promo came out for end of November/December in August. It's gonna be hard for my to wait b/c I'm getting a bit right now just to book our package!

I know the feeling.

Has anyone done the Wishes Fireworks Dessert party??

 

[pirategirl34]

Has anyone done the Wishes Fireworks Dessert party??

we have. It was a neat experience, but not something we would do again. It was a lot to spend on desserts when we are not huge sweet eaters. The fireworks view is ok, but sort of off to the side. if you have a family that loves sweets or young kids and need someplace not so crowded to wait for wishes, it might be something to try out.

She cheers for our high school and we normally do the competitions up un Huntsville at Bob jones, then the one at Wallace State. One is the last weekend in Oct. nd the other is normally the weekend before Thanksgiving. I'm not sure of the dates yet for this year because they are not posted on the UCA website yet.

So, we will have to leave from that area of te state, three hours north of where we live. unless we get lucky and the dates change for the better. Since she is in HS this year, they compete early in the day so we hold be finished by lunch. I have no problem driving on down that day. I really want to make it all the way to Orlando, but I will try to get as close as I can. I can't wait!

Hey fellow Alabamian!

Hey there!! it does look like alot of us will be going around the same time! it will be exciting!! The drive from Alabama is not that bad at all.

Well, I finally bought the plane tickets, as JetBlue started raising the rate to Orlando, and I did not want to miss out on tickets round-trip that were under $500. So instead of $380, we wound up paying $481 for 2 non-stop, round trip tickets from Reagan National (DC) to Orlando

My fear is Southwest is not showing any lower tickets leading up to their release of November/December, so I did not want to risk the JetBlue rates going higher if Southwest came out of the gate at a higher price

Good morning ya'll.

Thanks for this info. Since it's a different package, can we still use TS credits for it??

So I got all when I found I had a Disney e-mail last night, and was happy to find that I had a PIN code! BUT, it's a room discount for bookings until mid-August I was so excited at first but then very much let down when I looked at the dates...still hoping for some

Not only am I waiting for a PIN or something for my dates, but now I'm getting anxious about trying to get tickets to MNSSHP and MVMCP...I hope they release the official dates soon, and with those dates, the day the tickets go on sale...it's driving me not knowing

 

[mommyof3princess27]

You can tell the dates of MNSSHP and MVMCP by looking at the touring plans crowd calendar. If the park is closing at 7, its a party night

Try the PIN anyway...sometimes it will work for other dates. Mine said May, but it worked for October, too.

Here are the links for the Oct. and Nov. travel agent calendars. You can see what the probable party dates are...
