Us, too! It will be DH and myself, DGS (4 1/2) and my mom, for our first NYE "home".

We requested CP, but I'm nervous we'll be stuck in Carousel instead, as that's what happened last week at SSR. That will be worse in Dec, as we won't have a car this time.

No matter where we are room-wise we'll find our way to the party, though!

Will be ar AKV dec 30th til jan 4th. First time for NY at disney.Please you veterans give me the low down on the options for that night. Special fireworks, partys, you guy know what I'm asking.
I will add that the reason we planed the trip was cause DS is in College Program and his last work day at Disney is the 4th and then we drive him home to Ohio. I guess all those DVC trips rubbed off on him.lol

We will be at AKV also from the 29-Jan 5. This is our 1st time at NYE also! We were originally scheduled to stay at SSR, but changed on May 16!! Its going to be me, DBF, and 3 daughters 4, 9, and 11.

All of the parks and DTD have fireworks, except AK. All of the resorts and parks have NYE celebrations, except AK.

The parks are extremely crowded!

The Parks are open really late during that week. You can catch the NYE fireworks at MK on the 30th and 31st. They also do a special fireworks display on multiple nights. Our favorite fireworks and celebration is at MGM. Hats and horns are available throughout Disney, first come, first serve.

This will be our third year in a row celebrating NYE at Disney and we are already planning '08' at NYE!

Hope you don't mind some UK Disers gate crashing the party, we can help out with the margaritas ! This will be our first Disney New Year and we plan to be at the Saratoga party. It is myself and DH, would love to meet up with you all. We fly out from Gatwick on 14 December and have 5 nights at Saratoga, then off to the DoubleTree at Universal for three nights before returning to Saratoga until 4th January. Hope to see you all soon ....

You can actually head over to UK Pavillion earlier in the day, then head back to SSR for the evening. Each Country celebrates NEw Years when its midnight back home.

I answered my own question and found the thread.

But I just wanted to be sure, we can watch the fireworks at PI without paying the price of the party.

That's the plan. Glad you dug up this old thread. Seems we have quite a party forming.

Now let me see how to transport down a few bottles of my Bunratty Mead. Makes a great warm or cold drink in your refillable mugs. Just watch yourself standing up after. It's kinda like sake... sweet and deceptive.

 

[cinderella97]

Can we join t he fun, even though we are staying offsite this time? sounds like fun! We will be home over Easter. We squeezed in this trip thru our other time share

 

[GEB@okw]

Count us in too. It's my wife and I plus our daughter and son in law with our only grand daughter(at six months). We will be at the party. Far to busy at the parks. We have two ssr studios Dec. 30-Jan 4. Flying non stop out of Flint, MI

Just pack it in your check-in luggage. Or ship it fedex/ups to the front desk.

We also will be at AKL for that week. First time at Disney for NY. Want to plan day right and not miss anything. Considering Epcot Fireworks but have Ressie at Crystal Palace for dinner at 5pm. Not sure how to do, when first making resv. I figured that MK (my favorite place in universe) would be great place bring in New year but have talked to people that have been there and they recommend epcot or DTD for fireworks. Inside 30 day window any input I would appreiciate. I would love to here from 1st hand experienced Dis lovers. would normally stay at BCV but is first trip using AKV points. I AM SO EXCITED !!!!!! Coffee on the balcony in morning looking at animals sounds like heaven.

The MK does thier NYE fireworks on the 30th and the 31st. So I would go to MK on the 30th, then pick one of the other 3 venues for the fireworks. Then repeat the following three years and rotating the unseen firework shows for NYE.
