I am curious about the soft opening. Is there a general guideline to how these work? So, say in theory they officially open and take ADRs for Nov1st. Would the soft opening start Oct1st?
Also, a soft opening would just mean no ADRs, walk ups only correct?

Soft opening usually means no ADR's.

Besides that there are not rules or guidelines such as if its scheduled to open on X it will soft open 14 days earlier. Some rides were in Soft Open for months.

Also there is a typo in your sig. It looks like you are already booked for FD Sept 2013.

Also, I was just taking a peak at the first page, the Ariel ride, and Gaston's tavern, is there a date that is more giving than the time frame given for the TS restaurant? I am more concerned over the CS and the ride...we can change our dates, but for when?

It depends on which Magic Ball you look at.

Done and done. You are welcome.

Rumor that I've heard is that the new 3rd tent will be some sort of food option.

It's not a tent, its a big awning that is open on one side. It is most likely for a stage but I suppose it could be a cover for a walk up counter.

Alright, so I've read through most of this thread, and I know one of the questions was asked before, but was just wondering if anyone had any updated info on it.

#1: With Ariel getting the new ride & castle, will she move to that area for a M & G? Does she get her grotto back? Or is she just staying at the veranda with Eric?

#2: Any updates on whether Tiana will be going to fairytale hall (and thus Naveen leaving the parks...)??

Word is that Ariel will be back on her rock by her new ride.

I keep hearing Tiana's name associated with Fairytale Hall. I bet if she makes the move, Naveen will be gone, but I have nothing to base that on.

1. Ariel and Belle (maybe Snow White too?) get their own M&Gs with their princes.

2. Tiana and Naveen go into FTH.

1. Ariel and Belle (maybe Snow White too?) get their own M&Gs with their princes.

2. Tiana and Naveen go into FTH.

Is this confirmed somewhere? I know the original plans called for all the princesses to have individual meet and greets, but I thought they did away with all of that when they added Fairytale Hall.
