I'm starting to wonder if I will see the new A&E stuff and the new Soarin' *before* I see ROL...
Those are cute summer dresses!
Since I have been planning this vacation FEA has been pushed back, Wishes fps are no more, they won't release the info/fps/adrs/etc for ROL, and I'm probably missing something. Disney has created an environment which makes it necessary to plan where you're going to be, what time, where you will eat, how long, every minute planned, yet at this point I'm 45 days out and I can't plan because I have no info. I have 8 am adrs, fps for A&E at MK, everything planned for when we arrive to when we leave, and now I hear there may be a "soft opening" and A&E will go back to Epcot, they will probably blow my 8 am adrs out of the water (I have already cancelled Akershus), and now I may have to go back to the drawing board for MK, which I've planned 3 days for. May 4, 5 and 8. I may end up cancelling my AK day, and I guess the only day intact is the HS day (Epcot is not finalized so I can flip flop with AK if the info and such ever gets released). I guess Disney at least can figure out a way to ruin my HS day. Maybe close TSMM, RnR, and ToT. Or do away with the Imagineer dining, which I am excited about.
Since we have *nothing* new today on the ROL front..
What do you all think about the new MK after hours event? 3 hours, $149, meet and greets and attractions open. Select nights in April & May.
Disney's hours currently list the 3 nights in April (14, 21, 28) as 11 PM closings, with a 10 PM closing on the 28th. So my guess is 3 hours after that = 1 or 2 AM.![]()
You have to have at least a little leeway - summer 2016 doesn't necessarily mean May so even if Frozen & Soarin aren't open @ Epcot, you've still got the meet & greet at Mk booked & I'm sure they're not going to cancel the girls there while there's still FP bookedSince I have been planning this vacation FEA has been pushed back, Wishes fps are no more, they won't release the info/fps/adrs/etc for ROL, and I'm probably missing something.

ETA: quite sure they'll stop FP's @ MK before they move so Snow White/Aurora won't be back until Anna/Elsa are in Epcot only - if you have a M&G for specified princesses, you'll get them
I got so nervous when I saw this jumped another 15 pages since last night! Thought I missed something. Although I don't post often, I am having the best time reading along and following all the side topics.
One question I'd like your thoughts on is... If the Soarin' refurb is finished before the Shanghai opening date, would they really let a popular attraction sit empty through the start of the summer season just to give Shanghai the exclusive on the new movie? I really am not hopeful, but I would love to see soft openings by May 27th!!
Oh my gosh! Does this mean I have to maybe change my days around again if it is extended to June that is.I always avoid parks with EMH. It wouldn't bother me at all if they were gone.
They started the tiered parking already! At least for this past weekend. Not sure if it's a test or temporary but I saw photos of the signs so it looked permanent to me.I'm not sure of disney's thinking other than money, money money at the moment. On top of paying for extra hours I've also read there is going to be tiered parking.
$45 (or $15 if you stay on site/AP) to be closer and regular charge for rest.
We're laughing about toilet paper charges but it may come!
I don't mind spending money (certainly costs a lot to come from the UK nearly every year) but I hate feeling cheated and the more I hear at the moment the more I feel disney are trying to screw us. It takes away some of the magic and it takes a lot for me to say that!
