Official Fantasyland Expansion Q & A (Mickey gets evicted) PART II

[Sydnerella]

I can't believe this hasn't shown up here yet. All our answers about how the quick service lunch will work have been answered. Our first live reports of dining at BOG:

Thank you! Imagine that, a restaurant review on the restaurant forum...

Sounds like SO much fun - without ADRs perhaps BOG lunch is the new TSM of WDW!

That wouldn't surprise me one bit!

So upset. Apparently 11/6 is now a new AP preview date. That was the date I was counting on to be able to see it.

Now there really is no hope for me. I really thought it was going to work out.

Do you guys think that on Nov 3rd Fantasyland will open after the previews end at 8:30? The park is open until midnight.

Technically, a restaurant review shouldn't be in the restaurant forum, it should be in the "dining reviews" sub-forum.

I think it's a bit of overkill to have a restaurants forum AND a dining reviews forum AND a dining plan forum AND a dining reservations forum...

Are you attending MVMCP? I think it will be open then. My understand is that's why Belle and the Beast won't be appearing in their holiday attire.

I think I may have found a brand new favorite spot to watch Wishes at... outside Gaston's Pub!

This was taken one of the preview nights on 10/20/12. It's awesome because you can still see the castle fireworks if you stand sideways but you are super close to the regular fireworks too!

No it isn't a christmas party or halloween party those nights. MK is just open till midnight the night I want to get in. I am hoping they will open it after the previews are done.

Supposedly, it should open for all at 10:00p on non-party nights. I wish you luck!

Haha, thanks! I know I have mentioned this question like 10 times but I am just so anxious to get in. I wasn't expecting to when first announced soft opening on the 16th but now that it could happen I am desperate. I hope it does open at 10pm!

My answer is based on this post by Berlioz70, a poster and CM I trust--not to mention the OP of this huge helpful thread.

Berlioz70 - what a cruise!!! And thank you for your posts about FLE being open during MNSSHP! We went last night - Thursday the 25th - and were indeed let in to FLE. At 6:00, I Asked a CM manning the closed entrance and he told me that it was "closed for cm previews, but that I could check back later." Thanks to you, I knew what he meant! We were in by 7:15, all got to participate in enchanted tales - CM even asked if everyone who wanted a part had one! Photo pass photographer snapped tons of pics - can't wait to see them!

Thank you!!!

Quick question about the preview sign ups: I have a voucher for an AP. Can I sign up with the voucher?

Thanks to a recent vaca I'm a little behind... I'll be updating the first post shortly with links/photos/etc!

I bet Brenna has an idea, or the answer.

LOL! Looks like the reviews beat me to it!

Great Tip

We had a great time on the cruise - glad you enjoyed the pics!

Ironically I was at FLE last night as well; I wonder if we crossed paths, we left shortly before 6. Glad you were able to get in with no trouble during the party!

I was slacking even before my vaca... here are all of the DPB entries updated on the first post:

Interesting NOTE: Disney has neither confirmed nor denied that Beast will be appearing at Be Our Guest Restaurant, other than to say it is not being classified as Character Dining....

yet TWO of their recent blogs highlight the Beast at the Castle....

hmmmmm

Great cruise pictures, Brenna, and so many. Thanks for sharing, as always.

any word on when Storybook Circus and New Fantasyland will connect? I understand the path is blocked currently.

We will be in the world on 12/4...so curious.

Not likely any time soon. You can see from the recent aerials that the ground concrete work hasn't been laid yet, and there are no internal walls that would indicate that Snow White will be 'landlocked' for the foreseeable future. I'd guess it will open when they're done bringing in all of the tracks and can work all day without having a easement.

Is there more recent aerials? Those are from a while ago. I am curious as to where the path is.

Edit I think i saw the most recent picture.
