Everyone else said mail was free?

Yes, mine said free for regular mail.

We booked ours for 19th October, really looking forward to it too. We had to rearrange a couple of table service restaurant reservations to get this date but we're happy with them now.

Tickets are showing up on my MDE APP but not on my pc. Is this typical?

Other people having been having the same experience, yes.

I had to click on "other method of delivery" and it offered standard mail to home $0.00.

for the purposes of crowds, would a sunday or tuesday be better? We are looking at mid sept (10/12)

Looks like you paid for EXPRESS shipping.

The shipping options for ticket delivery are shown here:

Would be nice to have a ticket to scrapbook but I took one look at the International and picked the option for Magic band/email tickets . Too bad they are shipping them early otherwise I was thinking of asking if I could get them sent to the hotel. I wouldn't mind pay $5 to pick up mail.


Ticket notification update: MDE app is still wrong, nothings changed. When on the desktop site I checked My itinerary I checked my party days, my 2nd party date has nothing. On the 1st party date I have an ADR in MK and it says underneath park hours "Special Ticketed Event 7:45 AM to 9:00 AM Special Ticketed Event7:00 PM to 12:00 AM"

I also have the same information on the day for my Early Morning Magic day which is what the 7:45 AM to 9:00 AM is but its appearing on both days. So that's an improvement just not quite there yet.

Both should be good in terms or crowds. I would choose Sunday that way if weather becomes an issue you would have the availability to switch to Tuesday.

If it makes you feel better, the ticket is a plastic card and if I recall correctly from my MVMCP party days, doesn't specify its a Christmas ticket. Your wristband will though.

Thank you! I do like his website but some of his info is ... off? Like this 2016 statement from above link "This year they aren’t handing out candy bags as you enter, so you have to go to Jungle Cruise, Buzz Lightyear or Philharmagic to pick them up." Even though I didn't go last year I know there was a dedicated entrance that led guests behind the stores to pick up wrist bands, treat bags and a ziplock bag filled with treats. Wasn't this your experience?

Yes, this is what we experienced last year. Actually my profile picture is of us getting ready to enter the corridor that they had open behind the stores.

Many people here who have purchased tickets, myself included, have not yet seen them appear in MDE except through the app on their phone. The consensus is that they should appear in MDE sometime over the next few days, although this is just a guess and has not been confirmed with Disney.

Thank you, I just checked the app and my MNSSHP tickets are there

I can see why you chose what you did, I wonder if you can exchange them while there. It wouldn't hurt to ask your resort, MK Ticket Office or Guest Services.

You know, I'm wondering if they aren't putting Hallowishes up until they fix the issues with MNSSHP showing up in people's MDE. Shouldn't you NOT be able to purchase a Hallowishes package if you don't have MNSSHP tickets?

 

[DisneyToni]

Wow, we almost missing this party. I was totally unfamiliar with this Halloween party until reading around on this board. We happened to be already planning a trip in August which now nicely coincidences with two of the August dates. So we will be joining this party!

Thank you everyone for the information and discussion. This trip is going to be our best Orlando trip ever due to all the information that I have gathered here.

I'm sure there will be a disclaimer that says you'll need a special event park ticket for the Hallowishes Dessert Party

I was trying to come up with a reason. Sigh. lol

To not do the dessert party? I can come up with a ton

Got our party tickets for 9/26 with DVC discount. Did the print at home option and date looks good. Not showing on MDE though. Tried to manually input but says they are already linked and assigned. Hmm.

Super excited though! This is our first party and decided to give it a go since its the last year the little will be free. We are not huge halloween fans but enjoy it. My daughters favorite movie right now is snow white so debating the line for the dwarfs. Any advice for them?

First to the party! Get in line at 4:30/5pm for the Dwarfs and don't forget to meet Snow White at City Hall. If you attend one of the parades find a spot close her location and go there after. Costumes?

 

[mickey1968]

We saw the Dwarfs when they had Snow White years ago and I can't remember if we received a signed card. I know they took her out though not sure when, but is this just a shoot and go? They don't offer signed cards?

I have done both the 7D and Pooh and Friends for MNSSHP and MVMCP and not received cards for either of them. I did get one from J&S.

Ohhhh no! Reasons why is isn't available yet! I really can't figure out why they haven't opened that up yet.
