Weird question-

How far in advance should I book Mears and our stroller reservations? I was thinking early November for a December 6th arrival. Or should it be a little earlier?

We've only used it once so I'm not sure. We booked it months in advance bc we were not sure what to expect. You might ask on the transportation board. I think I found Mears info there.
 
:santa:First December trip for us since our honeymoon (12 years ago!)

December 16th - 23rd
1 bedroom OKW
Me, DH, and the kiddos (11, 7, 4)

First time for MVMCP for the kids!
Sounds like a fabulous trip! I'll add you to our trip planning post!
 

I’m going! A bit of a different trip this time…

December 10 - All Star Sports
December 11-12 - Stella Nova at Universal to do Epic Universe
December 13-15 - Polynesian

I’m doing Jollywood and MVMCP on Saturday and Sunday nights, so tacked on an extra night on the front end to see the new Starlight parade. #DisneyMath :rolleyes1
This sounds like fun! We thought about how we could do 2 parties but it didn't work out for us. Have fun and enjoy! 2 parties plus Epic will be amazing!
 
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! :D
Also...when does the December park hours come out? Am I missing it?

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??
