Kenny the Pirate just posted a picture of the new dhs map and it shows that a permanent stage is being built where the hat used to be. Called center stage.

Look for the map on Kenny's site, can't find it, got a link?

@CinderElsa and @lovethattink, I really was kidding! I have no interest in reselling anything. Some of the prices on the LE stuff is already outrageous on eBay, though. I can't imagine paying $250 for a magic band.

Can anyone ever get a walk up (very small chance of this, I know) for Sci Fi or H&V? I totally screwed up when I booked our dining when SW dining was released...I knew we were going the first weekend for SWW so I booked the first weekend dining was available. FAIL. I now have a Sci Fi breakfast reservation for 3 on 5/08 and a H&V reservation for 3 on 5/09. I have been searching and searching for a Sci Fi on either 5/15 or 16 and H&V on 5/15 to no avail.

PM me if you are interested in my 5/8 and 5/9 reservations.

The first SWW will be very busy but because the breakfasts will have been running for over a week, they may not be backed up. You can always ask at the podium if there is a picnic table available in the back of the "drive-in." You may be able to be seated there as a walk-in.

I didn't think you were serious!

The $250 is actually for TWO MagicBands. What a deal!

I don't know if it has ever been mentioned on here before...but I just recently used Disney Dining Buddy to find my galactic breakfast...it was $8 and within a week I was notified numerous times for openings. Once the time I wanted finally came up I booked it! Super easy!

There's a Jedi Mickey Dinner available right now. It's on 5/15 at 8:35PM

 

[coluk003]

Ouch at 8 dollars per request

 

[MakiraMarlena]

$8 per request and of course it is up to you to do the booking.

If anyone cancels a SciFi lunch or Dinner on May 16th because they snagged another meal, please let me know. There is nothing available now.

Did you mean the Jedi Mickey lunch or dinner? I believe the Star Wars Sci Fi meal is only available as breakfast.

The Jedi Mickey meal is only dinner at H & V. The Galactic Sci-Fi meal is only breakfast.

thinking this has been asked already, and I looked on the 2014 info., but couldn't find it. What was the price for the FtF package last year? Was it cheaper for kids? Trying to see if I can use it as leverage for adding another night at the beginning of the trip vs the FtF package since DH had previously ok'd the FtF package. I think I'd rather have an extra night though! ;-)

 

[MakiraMarlena]

$54 adults, $32 children age 3-9. including tax.

Personally I am expecting that price to go up.

pretty sure it will. The FsF package was more expensive. Can't remember exactly how much, maybe @lovethattink can tell us exactly how much it was

FSF packages went up to $69. I'm expecting about the same for FTF.

Ok that's kinda crazy, they took down the hat, I presumed, so you could see the theater better now they are going to block the theater with a stage?

WEIRD!

I'm thinking the stage is temporary and will be up for SWW and FSF, then down.

I know they put a temporary stage up in front of the hat during SWW but....
