My husband received a pin via snail mail about 3 months ago and we applied it to our package and he just received another one via email this weekend. They were the same discount so we couldn't use the second. My oldest DS has received 2 pins just this month, the first was a package code that was more than we are paying now (Code: RTP can be shared, the second we would have to change our room location and wasn't willing to do that.

Our reservation is in my name and I haven't received a pin I make my family members save vacation offers and order maps and vacation videos to keep the pins coming. Hopefully we will get a better discount pin soon. So my advice would be to have your family members sign up for an account with Disney and send for maps/videos. Hope something comes your way soon

Can you tell me/us more about this "RTP" code? It sounds intriguing...

Also, I'm really hoping that the TT re-open date is a very conservative estimate...was soooo hoping I'd get to ride it ...it's one of my favourite Disney rides . We'll just have to keep our fingers crossed and hope for soft openings

Well back from the Uro. I have to have a hydrodistention done on 5/21 to confirm but he is positive I have Interstitial Cystitis I guess its good I know whats wrong now.

That sucks BUT at least you know what it is now, and can get treatment so you can get on the road to recovery

I got the RTP code as well. It is ridiculous. It is more expensive than rack rate. I don't know why they do that. I guess they must find some suckers.

For those of you who have done MVMCP or are planning to, what is your plan for that day until the party? I have read that most people, at least those with young children, make the morning a "resort day" or try to lay low before heading to MK around 4pm. This is one option I am seriously considering, however, I hate to feel like I'm not really utilizing 2 days out of our schedule (the day of and the day after the party as the kids will likely want to sleep in) for a party that is only a couple hours long. Does anyone go to a park that morning for a couple hours? What is your plan for the day of and the day after?

We sleep late, relax, maybe do a little laundry (yes, I know it is an abomination to do laundry on vacation!), maybe visit DTD, have a late lunch/early dinner and then MVMCP. We aren't really early people on vacation anyway.

I got the exact same PIN and DATES ...BUT...only 10% That would only be a drop in the bucket...would rather pass that PIN by and hope for another during the year....OR....PLEASE FREE DINING!!!!!

Congrats to you though!!!!

Ever hear the old saying "A Watched Pot Never Boils?"

Well, I've been stalking my inbox waiting for a pin. Today, I was on the road and couldn't check my inbox religiously every 5 minutes.

When I get to my destination, lo and behold an email appears from Disney Destinations.

It was kinda disappointing though, it was only 20% deluxes and I havn't even checked the mods or values yet.

Here's hoping that more pins keep coming for everyone!!

We are actually going to a park early that morning then back to the resort around noon or so. We will probably head to the party between 4-5 but I doubt we will make it until midnight. The next morning we will be hitting the parks early but also having an early evening. Just hope it works out and were not exhausted after 2 days.

Not sure exactly what the deal was but I sent it to my TA and she checked it out. She said it was more expensive than the reservation we already had.

We sleep in and then get our laundry done. Go for a tour of the deluxe resorts and then head to MK at 4p.m. But we do not stay till midnight. We'll leave when the last parade and fireworks are done. I seem to recall fireworks on MVMCP nights. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

When DH and I went in 07 we hit AK at rope drop and was done around 2. We went back to the resort and rested a bit and then hit the party about 5. We had adrs at Tonys for 630 ish and main street was so crowded we hit the rides and walked on to practically everything!!

And I thought you'd seen on MY trip report that I'm way behind on everyone's trip reports! I had some deadlines and got behind on the DIS but plan to catch up in the next couple days.
