Rumors of Light (ROL discussion thread)

[MickeyMinnieMom]

Guys, I have a charity event to attend tonight, 6-9pm Eastern. If it opens up during that time, please grab me a preview event for 4, and a Tiffins package Aug 17 for 6 people.

P.S. I'll pay you in rum.

Just tried to go check the site. This is what I got on the dining page. Glitch probably, but the hopeful idiot in me wants to think they're updating.

Bless your heart.

I have no words...

My favorite part was this...

"Will you see “Rivers of Light” when it opens at the park on April 22? Tell us in the comments section below."

Can't wait to read those comments!

We should bombard them with comments

I'm on it! And I do enjoy my rum with a side of dole whip! Have fun at your event!

I do believe that some (all?) of the comments are from people on this thread! And I agree!

Yep guilty here to

LOVE seeing the comments on the blog! I wonder how long it will take them to reply.

I just called for fun and the CM was ready to answer with a very scripted response stating that making dining package reservations for ROL has been postponed. They do not know when they will be available for booking and to keep checking the Disney parks blog for updates.[/Quote
I will have to check the blog out.

I've found Maggie !!! word is that unless you attend Hogwarts, you will not get any "ROL" info out of her !!

 

[maryj11]

Oh they did post my comment. And my stupid phone inserted a different word than the one I wanted, so my comment makes no sense. Now I look like an idiot. Thanks a lot phone.

Just went and read the blog ! You guys tell them how it is Maybe they will get the hint now

I added a comment to the blog for the cause.

One thing that I have learned today, is that it's All in the Details. One detail that is not lost on me is that I am 31 days out today...

 

[marchingstar]

here's a detail-focused question: say someone has 5 day park tickets and is staying somewhere off-site. When they try to book FP+, is it like dining? That they can only book one day at a time, exactly at 180 days? Or when they hit the 30 day window, can they book for 30 days+length of ticket?

My biggest concern about FP+ for ROL is having to fight not only the folks staying on-site, but everyone else too. I really hope we see FP+ (and ideally dining!) open up before whenever everyone has access to bookings for April 22.

FP booking windows are addressed here. Offsite is one day at a time.

 

[DisneyBabies]

Hahahahaha! I did it! Lets see if they put my comment up

WHERE'S THE RIVERS OF LIGHT INFORMATION ALREADY?! YOU STIFFED US WITH THE LIVE BLOG LAST WEEK, SO HURRY UP AND GIVE US WHAT WE REALLY WANT!

thanks, mesaboy! So if my math is right, onsite guests lose the edge on March 23rd for booking FP+ for April 22nd. Is that right?

 

[sullivan928]

I won't lie....the longer this anticipation builds up, the more I'm starting to get nervous that the end result of the show (if I ever do see it) will leave me with the same thoughts as the end of the anticipated live chat. Anyone else have that in the back of their head?

That sounds about right. Everyone here is pretty serious about this...I can tell.

Speaking of therapy/support groups...

I fully admit that this thread has consumed my life. I've checked it in three different countries, and become anxious if I go more than an hour without checking back in. And I'm happy to know I'm in good company!

Disney needs to host a complimentary preview night reserved solely for members of this thread to recognize our dedication and willingness to compromise sleep & sanity

I second that
