**November 2019 check in ***

Yes. Also, what’s up with Frozen live? The only show I see in November is November 3rd. That’s our first park day, so if we have to fit it in that day it’s going to change how I plan the rest of my days. Our last park day is Nov. 8 - assuming WOC - season of light is showing that night, is it a must see?? We are trying to cram as much holiday stuff as possible into that last day, but not sure if we can pull that one off. We definitely want to see the fireworks that night, but if we see Fantasmic a different night, maybe we can fit in WOC that night too. Plus I will probably want to try ALL the food at festival of holidays

I've noticed it too. It's showing through November 12 at this point, but the times aren't populated beyond November 3.

ETA: Actually, JK, November 3rd is the ONLY day in November that is populated with times. November 1st and 2nd both have nothing.

Can anyone tell me how the portion sizes compare between the Adult and Child On-the-Go Fantasmic Packages at Hungry Bear? If someone has an adult park ticket (a 12 year old) does that mean that I have to purchase the Adult Dining package for them?

Since I'm WFH, and have the luxury of sitting on an extended hold, I called Disney Dining about WOC again. The message hasn't changed - the entertainment schedule isn't finalized, so they can't offer parties yet.

The cast member did say she has every expectation that the show will be offered nightly, just like during past holiday seasons, but also readily admitted that things often change without notice. Bottom line is to just keep checking.

Yes, anyone over the age of 9 is a Disney adult.

That is what I assumed. Thanks!

With DCA closing at 8pm during the week during the holidays (at least on Nov 12 and 13 when I will be there), does anyone have any idea when WOC runs? I assume at 7pm and there is only one show?

I’d guess it’s at 7:45.

I’d guess it’s at 7:45.

Based on the WOC time on Nov 5th which also has an early closing time I think it will show at 7:30 with a 6:45 check in time for the dessert party. I am trying to decide if we can make the dessert party with this earlier time. We land at SNA at 4:20!

personally I wouldn’t. Planes have delays. They don’t offer refunds.

Family of six arriving November 11 and departing November 16. Staying at the Best Western Park Place Mini Suites across the street. We need two rooms now that the kids are too big to share beds. All boys, ages 22, 20, 17 and 14. Haven't been for the Christmas season since 2015! Just waiting on making our last reservation for the WOC dessert party too. Checking every day, multiple times a day! Hopefully they open those up soon so I can stop worrying I'll miss it!

Did you look at some of the family suites in the area? May be cheaper than 2 rooms and nicer than a motel. Courtyard by Marriott theme park entrance
Homewood suites Convention
Spring Hill suites convention
Residence inn

We have two suites booked. Need two bathrooms for sure. Each room sleeps six but each kid will have their own bed this way. We stayed at the BW last year and it was really nice! I will check out your suggestions to see if we can get a better rate though. Thanks for the tips!

I asked this question too. My daughter is 10 and not a big eater, apparently, you can order anything from the HB menu, so if your child is also not a big eater and not going to eat an adult meal, I'm assuming you can order a child meal off the menu, but pay for an adult. Fortunately it's only $10 price difference between adult and kids.

Also check the Clementine -- it used to be a Residence Inn. It is by GardenWalk and the Motel 6. Some posters here have reported finding very good rates on Expedia.

Has anyone done Magic Morning on Thanksgiving Day itself? Wondering if the Holiday itself affects how many people use it that day or not?

 

[Sherry Berry]

My family of 4 is going to Disneyland staying at Paradise Pier Hotel from 11/26-11/29 spending Thanksgiving dinner at the Blue Bayou Fantasmic show. We're headed to Anaheim after 3 nights at the Legoland Castle Hotel.

WoC times are up until the 15th.
Autopia is back open on the 15th.

There is also a thread up about a DVC event on the 14th at DCA. That is our last full day and the plan was DCA with WoC dessert party. Now I am not sure how crowded it will be after 6pm when DVC ppl can start checking in.

Well, if the shows are populated ... that means the dessert parties can't be far behind, right? Hopefully you can still get a reservation and enjoy your evening, even if it it gets a bit crowded!

Where do you see the schedule? When I go to the WOC page on the DL website, Nov. 8-14 are clickable dates, but it just says “No times available” for each one.

Go to the park hours then search the calendar by day.
