Rumors of Light (ROL discussion thread)

[KristiK]

I saw this link on another thread with rumor of disappointing possible changes (at least disappointing to me). Read all the way through to see.

This is making more sense to me especially with the rumor of ROL opening mid April or later.

I just finished talking to a CM about a half hour ago and he verified march 3rd is when they will open the dining package for ROL. He did not have a whole lot of information beyond that though and was surprised when I mentioned That FT was an option.

Someone earlier on this thread said a CM said March 2nd was the day. I'm thoroughly confused. Lol.

Did I read correctly that this would be a "test" package of sorts at first?? Any idea if when they open this it will open all the way through August?

I spoke with a CM in dining this morning and they said they do not have any information or dates in which the dining packages will be released I guess it depends who you get on the phone.

Just keep in mind phone CMs are notorious for not having correct information.

I am not sure if it is just my pc and phone or if there is something going on with the Disney Dining website but I have been trying to access it since yesterday and I just get the spinning wheel. I am going through MDE and then just clicking on "Things To Do" and then "Make Reservations" under Dining. Usually that is how I make my dining reservations as it shows every restaurant in Disney. I tried it on my phone and laptop and get the spinning wheel on both. I am wondering if this has anything to do with the changes for the ROL package or if there is just an issue with the website or my systems right now.

I decided to call and see if I could get a confirmation on the release date. Having handled all my ADRs online, I had forgotten how annoying it was to call and navigate through the automated system. Even my repeated, "I want to speak to a cast member" were with "I just need a little more information".

eta: She didn't know anything either, but she directed me to the Disney blogs, that they seemed to have info the CMs didn't.

Does anyone know if this will this be available to book online on March 2nd? Or only by phone? Also, can I still use one credit of my dining plan for Tusker House....or will it be two credits with ROL? Thanks!

I just get the spinning wheel.

I've been having this problem too, using my chromebook. Try using a private browser (incognito), that got it to work for me. Then I pretend to book a random reservation, sign in, and cancel... it redirects me back to the reservation screen and magically works. But I cant access it if I am signed in first. I have an ADR day coming up next week and I plan to have my husband's mac available as backup just in case.

These CM's with all these different answers I hope it will be March 2nd or 3rd.

This morning was my 180 mark.

I kept getting an error message this morning on my PC when trying to book our ressies so I had to call and got through pretty quickly to a CM who was able to book everything at times I wanted.

I asked her about Tiffins and ROL dining packages and she couldn't give me a date but said to keep checking the Disney blog site.

That's frustrating.

Ugh, this waiting period is just painful!

I feel like when I was waiting for BOG breakfast and Minnie's dine to be released before our Nov trip last year. Lol.
