Remy Previews

[erionm]

I had an Epcot pass added for our AP preview. We also already have an Epcot pass for that day so now we have 2 lol

Our Epcot park reservations were added for the AP preview yesterday as well. Which is reassuring since I didn't get an email confirmation after completing the reservation process.

Not for the DVC Preview. We got an email today about our AP preview on the 9th. But nothing about the DVC preview on the 5th.

Nothing for me either for 9/5. Would you mind posting the email language for the 9th preview? The initial email says arrive before your schedule time, but how much earlier?

From initial email:

• See your confirmed date, time, and party size at the bottom of this email.

Sure, it's kinda repetitive, but the language from the AP preview is [including fine print]:

Which date do you have the AP preview? Our pass has not been added for 9/9- but our time slot is at 6 pm, so we can just hop anyways.

ETA: Never mind- it must have been added this morning because I see it now. Wasn't there yesterday.

Just got our email now for Sunday. Instructions are pretty much the same as AP except it mentions entering the park at the entrance all the way to the left where CMs will have iPads.

No email yet but at least I know where to go. Thanks for update.

I got the email as well. It states at the Main Entrance. So what about those staying BC, BW, or Riviera? No transportation to the front of the park. Guess I will call tomorrow and check.

Did they add EPCOT passes to guests’ MDE accounts for the DVC preview? If not maybe that is to get into the park? But yes, there should be a plan for Intl Gateway for sure. Epcot was our regularly reserved park on Sunday so I’m not sure if passes were added for others? I don’t see an additional pass though like I do for my AP preview.

got the email for 9/5 yesterday about 5pm. no passes added, but we have AP and our time slot isn't until 6pm.

I wonder how long the wait will be once we get in line.

So MS answers was to Uber to front or grab a bus from a different park to get to the front. At first they said there should be some at the IG but did some research on the email and was unsure if anyone would be there. Why not just added passes like the AP preview?

I'm happy to report that there were CMs at IG entrance. Just follow special event check in sign. As for me, never got the 2nd email. We went to front entrance check in at far left under "special event check in" in the morning and then when to remy preview during our designated time. They were strict with times to arrive on Sunday (apparently more relaxed on Sat, but doesn't hurt to ask if you can get in earlier). Like other posters said, once inside, unlimited rides to remy, small outside market shop for remy products and you can try crepes too if you have time to stand in line.

Word of caution, they do have plastic dividers for the seats of three in each row, so be mindful when "squeaking" in. I'm not sure why didn't make them flat seats, but I'm sure some safety requirement.
