In more good news, I just read that the Pirates of The Caribbean ride refurb should be done 9/25. Originally I read that it was going to be sometime in November. Yay!

That is definitely good news! Pirates is one of my favorite MK attractions.

That's the best news ever - I was so worried about it being closed for our trip - and it's DS's favorite ride!

Hi You will absolutely love Food & Wine! There are soooo many good food and drinks to try! I usually make a list ahead of time of what we'd like to try there.

Ok it's March- they can release park calendar anytime now! I'm going to go insane if they don't do it soon!

For the Food and Wine Festival, I assume at some point a menu comes out? How far in advance does that happen and is there usually a theme of some sort?

The menus for each booth will come out ahead of time- I just don't remember how far ahead? Each booth/country will have a few different foods and a few drinks. You can grab a passport at one of the booths and they will stamp it at each country/booth that you eat/drink at. Like at Germany we had bratwurst and beers - at Poland we had pierogi and this slushy apple pie tasting vodka drink

We've stayed at CBR before and really enjoyed it - this year we're trying WL (hope we like it)!

we haven't stayed at CBR yet. Ive done the rest of the mods & enjoyed them all. while i a very tempted to switch to WL, I am already feeling guilty about booking a trip for just myself 7 the little one so I should probably stick with the mod!

i loved your gopro video!

I really think you would like CBR, at least try it once The pool was fantastic there - good food court - remodeled rooms!

Thank you about the video - we had a blast trying out using a GoPro for the first time!

Yay for POTC being open! I was going to be so sad if it wasn't.

Also, I have that hours should come out around March 15, but I could have just made that up in my head.

Does anyone remember when the event/booking F & W Events (Party for the Senses, etc.) opens? I was thinking May, but it seems like things are coming out earlier these days.

 

[collcass]

For those who have attended MNSSHP, has anyone ever done 2 parties during one stay? there are 3 dates available during my stay. I was actually thinking it might be wise to split the party into 2 nights since Jackson will only be 2.5 during our visit & will most likely not make it very late.

 

[Jenna319]

We are arriving 10/31 - 11/7 and staying at the Grand Floridian! We rented DVC points so we will be in a studio and it will be our daughter's 1st Disney trip, she will turn 1 on 10/27. How am I going to wait 8 more months!?!?

 

[Flynnismine]

DD(6) and I will be taking our first mother/daughter only trip from October 3rd to the 9th. Staying for the first time at BLT LV. We're planning to attend our 2nd MNSSHP on either the 4th or the 6th.

I just want the late fall discounts to come out so I can finalize my dates. Also need airlines to release fares for November so I can book my return flight.

Not sure if Jetblue is one of your airline options, but they are supposed to be releasing fares through to January 4th, 2016 on Sunday, March 15th at 12 noon EST.

I know Southwest isn't releasing the rest of the year until 5/14. I'm trying to decide whether to fly or drive (right now I'm leaning towards driving), but won't be able to decide until they release my return date.

 

[wellesleyprincess]

I need to change my info. I just got a good deal on renting some points and I'll be staying at AKL Villas- Jambo House
