***Official Planning Thread -DECEMBER 2024 - Welcome all!***

I’ve had this statement showing up on MDE in red print for the last month and even thought I have loaded the Disney site multiple times this keeps appearing:
We cannot display all your dining reservation details right now. Please check back later!

I'm trying to decide whether to go to the Candlelight Processional on 12/11...eating at Via Napoli and going to the 5:00 pm show. What will be offered as the entree at Via Napoli and how soon do you have to line up before the show starts? Decisions, decisions!! Is the show something not to miss if you've never seen it before?

For me - Candlelight Processional is a MUST DO and I don’t leave it to chance that I’ll get a seat without a CP reservation. Last time I went with a Via Nap CP package - you could order any single entree (I got the individual pizza with a salad). 12/11 is Brendan Fraser who was VERY popular last year…with a CP reservation, I would line up an hour before, without I would line up at least 2 hrs before.

I mean it's up to you to decide how important it is to you.
For us, we aren't very religious, so while we would appreciate the beautiful singing, it's not a must do for us. I have been told we can just be in the vicinity to hear the singing, so for us that's enough do get a taste of it.

Now for my mom it would be a must to for certain! She would love it.

Normally we do the same out of O'hare. This year we are the last flight and staying at MCO Hyatt night before we start the trip. It's easier for drop off of our cat at the vet this way.

It is what it is! As long as we take off the night, we are just going to go to sleep right away anyways at the hotel.

Sending you pixie dust it will all work out. Pre trip anxiety about the unknowns is such a beast! I hope you can stay in your zen zone and it all works out

Yes, I had the same thing as well. When I deleted some dining ressies it came off....but for some reason I couldn't delete any(on my MDE site) so I had to call to get them deleted.

 

[cattycat2]

I changed resorts and have rearranged my dining....so I'm adding and deleting...

I found a Garden Grill breakfast at 8:40am!

Will update tomorrow about Multipass!

 

[pixiedust2u]

Good luck today MP friends.

Hope everyone is getting the rides they want!!!

Tomorrow is my day and then Wednesday for the rest of my party, which I'm also booking.

Fingers crossed tomorrow I can get the LLPP for MK on 12/4 and for Epcot on 12/6. If that works it's going to make the rest of my planning a heck of a lot easier!

 

[pixiedust2u]

Success! Went smoother than I anticipated. I was even able to get LLSP for MVMCP (we do not have a day ticket or AP)

Oh you’re going big with the PP!

 

[japanese maple]

Oh you’re going big with the PP!

Yep! We most likely won't be coming back until 2027 at the earliest so doing it all!

 

[pixiedust2u]

So I guess now we wait! Good thing I have Thanksgiving to offer some distraction.

The only thing I’m left waiting for is a dining alert for 4 people for Topolinos on Saturday 12/7 I was close to getting it but wasn’t quick enough. Hoping another alert pops up.

Ugh, this is the worst week! We leave Monday night and it's going to be torture waiting to get there, even with Thanksgiving!

I can't book my LL's till Wednesday. That's the wait that's killing me right now! I so badly don't want to have to rework all my perfect plans

I know what you mean I’m not sure which is more stressful booking ADRs or getting LLMP choices…than you have to worry about your ADRs interfering with LLMP. I arrive 12/6 so can’t purchase/book LLMP until Friday 11/29.

I don’t think you will have any problems at all. I’m a nervous wreck because I am booking Christmas week and can’t do anything until December 13

I’m so glad it’s over with lol. Such a relief. I was up over an hour earlier than I needed to be. I’m tired! So much better than having to do it every day of our vacation though, that’s for sure. I never slept well knowing I had pressure on me in the AM

Same!! So much better than doing it each morning!

I got all the rides I wanted but some of the times just won't work. There's a glitch on the app so I can't change them to earlier. It's frustrating for the planning process. I did report the glitch and they are aware of it.
