Every year our stay gets a little bit longerI've added you to the list, welcome aboard! Looks like you'll have lots of time at the parks!
Sounds good.I'm thinking we'll work in a visit to get breakfast or lunch at Whispering Canyon and take a look around the gift shop. Maybe we'll see you around!
Grabbed our flights to MCO Thursday when SW opened their calendar...coming home ones can wait until I build up some more pts...or maybe we just won't leave!
An earlier arrival was available so we are excited. Coming from the west coast arrivals are later in the say but we snagged a 430 pm arrival so we are excited! June 23rd can hurry up...Unfortunately it means booking dining on Christmas morning at a rediculous early hour.
Good luck! Personally I love the Port Orleans resorts. I'll admit that I have not stayed at AKL though I have eaten there a few times. We personally feel it is far out, though I am sure that is relative, but I would still like to try it one day.222 days!
Now if I could just decide on a resort to book for the first part of my split...I think I've narrowed it down to POFQ or AKL. If I go with AKL I'll need to cut off one day though to keep it in the budget (from 13 nights down to 12). DH would love to cut off a night, but not me - I can never get enough! We're doing a 3 resort split, so it's either 4 nights POFQ or 3 AKL, followed by one night GF (we got a free night at any deluxe and let DD8 pick the resort for that night) and 8 nights BC. No idea what to do but I want to get it booked today so I need to decide.

Sorry, I'm not much help...haha.
We are new (resale) DVC owners so I'm sure we will try them all at some point, if possible!Lol! I ended up booking the 4 nights POFQ. Depending on the AP discounts for June, I may end up switching if it's a good deal. I did get about 20% off at POFQ through my TA so that's better than what's typically offered by Disney (if at all).
AKL doesn't really feel too far out to me, but very peaceful and quiet. It's not my favorite resort, but overall we really enjoyed it and it's a good price for a deluxe (if standard view). I definitely recommend trying it at least once!
I've never stayed at either PO resort, but we drove out last trip to check out POFQ and it looks really nice!
June 18-22, Art of Animation Little Mermaid. Wife, son 4, grandson 9 and myself
June 1-3 @ Loews Pacific Royal. June 3-8 @ Caribbean Beach Resort. Myself, husband, and our three daughters. It is going to be such a great vacation!
My family of five will be at Caribbean Beach, June 3 - 10. Looking forward to making ADRs soon!
I know this is all up to Disney and we can only speculate, but do you guys think it's likely that we'll see PM EMH for 11pm-1am, like last year? I've never been to WDW in the Summer and don't really know what to expect.
I'm very hopeful for it, at least on Wednesday nights. Even with the Pandora EMH they did some late nights at least once per week at MK. But who knows, maybe they'll decide to do that at HS and AK instead of MK.
I have!!! It's fun but a bit wonky since there's really no place to sit. The food is good, especially the nitrogen Nutella truffles, and I believe they've now added beer and wine to the alcohol offerings. Stormtroopers circulate through the room throughout, and you get a gift as you're leaving to be escorted to the viewing area. When we were there, the gift was HUGE tie fighter popcorn buckets, but my understanding is a new gift is about to be rolled out. You can go to this thread for more input: https://www.disboards.com/threads/o...-party-galactic-nights-launch-bay-jt.3439569/Has anybody done the Star Wars dessert party at HS? We've done the MK dessert party and I think my daughter would love this as she is a Star Wars fan.
