Absolutely.

As long as you enter the park at or after 4pm (this is the unofficial entry time allowed), you only need your MNSSHP ticket. It would be extrememly difficult to see everyone. My suggestion is to arrive at 4pm and meet anyone that is a regular MK character, grab a quick bite at a QS place and then line up no later than 6:15 for your top priority party only character. Then, have a list in order of who you most want to see. Once the first party takes place, you will be able to make a good plan as we will know the exact location of everyone available.

This is a great plan of attack! I love that we will have time to read all about the parties before and make a plan of what we want to accomplish!

About to pay the balance on POP for Oct 3- 11. First time at Disney, and first time overseas! I'm so excited, free dining would be an awesome bonus too

[JennyWren]

We will be there Oct. 2 & 3 to enjoy the F&W festival before our 3n on the Dream.

131 days for us. I finally decided to make one ADR. We ate at Artist Point last week and now it's one of my favorites. So we will mostly eat at F&W but one ADR. I like the commute.... across the lobby and head to the Villas.

Wow this thread is HUGE!!

I booked my trip for my boyfriend and I for POFQ 10/3/12-10/9/12. It will be our 2nd F&W and first MNSSHP! My DBF is super excited for MNSSHP. We are hoping free dining becomes available for our trip and we plan to upgrade to DxDP. We are huge foodies so will probably end up paying for DxDP even if the free dining is not available.

BTW if there are any other foodies on this thread- I highly recommend the Party of the Senses...it was such a good time and you get to try so many different foods. It is expensive so we are not attending this year and attending HHN VIP & MNSSHP instead. I have also never seen Fantasmic! either so I booked the F! dinner package.

It's official! I've booked our flights and room!! This year it will only be DS(12) and myself going to WDW. We've only ever been in the winter, so I'm really looking forward to visiting during when it's warm.

Hoping to come to Disney for a week the beginning of October. My niece's birthday is October 1st and she will be turning 11 we missed her big 10 birthday last year. But we are all waiting on the okay from my Dad's company on honoring his free all paid weeks vacation for being loyal to the Construction company he has worked for 25 years by now its almost going on 30 years as he received his certificate for the free vacation a few years ago and has not had the chance yet to use it because 2010 they had to lay him off during the winter because of lack of work and 2011 he injured his left rotator cuff and has had surgery this past fall and he never healed because of either the surgeons fault or the doctor applying the nerve block. Thus he has been off all winter and before he has to quit working for good he would like the company to honor his free vacation. I am not sure if we will stay Onsite, Off site, or on the Gulf and drive up to Disney for a day or two for the Disney fans. It will be me I'm 30, my brother(28), my older brother(40's), and his daughter the birthday girl(10), my mom(61), and my dad(59). But my older brother wants to bring her daughters cousin along for a similar age ride mate. Me, my parents, and my younger brother live in Western PA and my older brother, his daughter, and cousin live in Myrtle Beach SC. So somehow we both have to separately arrive in Orlando, they may drive we may fly or take Auto Train. I'm just so excited to plan everything and I should know soon either we can go or not. But I'm a born planner, and trip planner, so the planning is half the fun, Oh and I love the fact we will be there during Epcot Food and Wine, but I don't drink but I love to snack around the world so what is a few more countries.
