Rumors of Light (ROL discussion thread)

I see Flame tree is on the referb list through June 2016. Anyone know more? Won't the crazy increase in AK activities with possible Flame tree package make this a bit of bad timing?

I had to hunt down my ROL cast merchandise today - it took 3 different Company D stores before I could get a pin and a t-shirt in my size.

I'll be trying to book a dining package just like most of you guys, since I doubt my 7-day FP+ window will be of any use for this show for a long time.

I don't believe the actual restuarant is but seating areas are being refurbed.

You have to be right. The restaurant just had a huge remodel

I've been following this thread anxiously waiting for news along with everyone else but I do have one question I haven't seen come up. Do we have any clue as to how late the park will be open once ROL starts? We are spending a few days at AKL as the start to our non-WDW vacation but have no plans to go into any of the parks. We are there 4/26 (fly in), 4/27 (Discovery Cove) & 4/28 (start driving) and if the park is open late enough I'd love to go after DC. But I feel like unless it was open until at least 10pm it wouldn't be worth it. Any news that I missed?

I think it's morphing into more of a support group...

Lol. Ya deff. Dis boards is one big support group with stuff like this. That's a good thing though. No one else int His world gets us Disney nuts.

It's going to be a long night tonight. I'm planning to stay up until at least 12. Then I have to get my DD16 up at 6 for a band trip so I will be checking then too.

We are only going for the SW race weekend, so the preview event is going to be our only shot. I'm hoping for the 17th first, but I will make the 16th or 15th work if needed.

I feel like I've heard 11 pm. But I can't remember where I read that.

This is me! Having a birthday party sleepover with 13 y/o girls and going to Skyzone until midnight=very little sleep. Up at 6 to hopefully buy the package for Star Wars Dark Side weekend. I need 17th to work for me.

Thanks everyone! What worries me is the 'as late as'. I guess if there isn't news by tomorrow I may just give in and buy tickets. Guess we could use them in the AM or at another park if AK ends up closing early on the 27th.

Please tell me Flame Tree will be open for May. I'll be very disappointed if we miss that.

Good question....no one knows
