Hi fellow December travelers!
We are booked for Dec 15-21 @ OKW
Our largest family trip to date! First 3 nights we will have 5 and the last 3 we will be a party of 7. (As a family of 3 this is huge to us! LOL!)
We are splitting WDW & Universal this trip but staying OKW w/DVC points the entire time.
Ok, now that my "intro" is out of the way. Heading back to read everyone elses posts!
Also...when does the December park hours come out? Am I missing it?

Sounds fun! I love going with a big group (sometimes lol!) I'm not sure about park hours but I think they come out a month or so out but someone may know better. Added you to our planning post!

Hi all! Planning a December trip for 19-23 at Wilderness Lodge and I have a few questions specific to Christmas trip planning and this maybe seemed like the place to post them? Apologies if not and I can move to the main thread! But if anyone knows, my questions are:

1) Do I need to prebook winter summer land mini golf? Website seems to suggest I can book 60 days out by calling a number. Is that necessary? I’d prefer to have more flexibility on time and just show up but not sure if that’s smart.

2) Do the Christmas sled rides at Fort Wilderness usually book up?

3) Does anyone know when the Christmas parade will be moving to regular park hours? The last party is on Dec 21 so does that mean it will be there Dec 22 during regular hours for sure or might it be later? And is it usually at both 12 and 3?

4) Any favorite Christmas snacks or activities I should plan on??

I added you to the planning page. I'm sorry I can't answer most of your questions, but as far as activities go, I love the storytellers around world showcase. My favorite is La Befana in Italy. Listening to these stories of Christmas while snacking around the world is my favorite thing to do at Disney at Christmas time. My other favorite is to take the monorail around all of the monorail resorts to check out their decorations. This is fun too! The sled ride sounds fun too. I've never done that one.
