Official May 2011 thread!

Have you been to CBR before? I keep hearing reviews about how large this resort is and so I'm afraid to try it out...I know that we are going to be staying at AKL for our first two nights (non park days) but not sure where to stay for the remainder of our trip (6 nights/7 days) !!

I drive my own self nuts with all of my obsessive planning lol..

No I haven't stay there before. I requested Jamaica 45 or 46 building which is closer to the food court and bus stop. Just try it, just once. This will be our first & last stay at CBR b/c we are a family of 5. DD turns 3 in July.

From what I understand you can make them at 180 from your first day there. Then for up to 10 days of your trip. You have to have your conf # to make them for the extra 10 days. I love Phineas and Ferb!!

oh there you are Perry.

According to the ADR calculator you can make your 180 day ressie on Nov 8th!!

I'm hoping to get DH to agree to return in May. We were there last year May 22-June 4. He refuses to return that week which of course is the only week with free dining. I'm looking at May 14- 22 now. SW has a great rate down but the flight home is a little too much. Hopefully Jetblue will have something good when they release their prices tomorrow.

Not sure where we are going to stay. I'm hoping to do a split stay with maybe POP/Boardwalk or BC? I wish Disney had some type of discount for the rest of May. That would help me win over DH!

Wish I could talk DW into an after school free dining special trip. She hates the heat!!!

We've decided to go to the world the last week of may. We'll be staying at AKL kidani. I can't wait. This will be our 2nd trip and i think it will be even better then the first. Definatly doing the dining plan just have to decide between the dxdp or the one thats a step below that one. Also i may have missed it but what are the dates for starwars weekends?

Did you decide to stay an extra day at a mod? Hope you find something soon

I think we're going to stay with a Deluxe, but I'm toying with the idea of staying CL and not taking a dining plan. My husband is a beer lover and will just be coming home from a tour in the middle east. I'm thinking club level may be worth it for the free beer access alone! LOL

I was just over on the Disney site and made a payment on my reservation. I thought I'd check and see if the park hours had been released yet. Well, imagine my surprise when I clicked on park hours and the hours for May 26th through May 30th popped up! (Our travel dates are May 26th through June 4, 2011). I didn't realize that any of the May park hours had been published yet.
