Rumors of Light (ROL discussion thread)

[Vernie822]

Well, at least they're all consistent for a change.. lol

Also, I'm pretty sure it's EVERYTHING dining package/preview package related. I did not ask about Fastpasses, but she said any of the dining packages are being put on hold.

Need more details, today is the day for what? the previews? The Dining Packages? What?

I was calling for a dining package for May 1st.

I love how they keep saying to check the parks blog when it appears at least a couple of these rumor dates were true (and postponed) but were not announced on the blog!

I have meetings all day long at work so it's going to be tough to keep checking.

Yup. And that is not that unusual. Thankfully we have this thread to share information.

What kind of job do you have? Where I work, meetings consist of 2 people talking, while everyone else is on their smart phones

Right, I was thinking the same thing, hahaha.

I thankfully don't have any meetings today so I'll be checking here and the blog, hopefully it won't be hard to step out and make a call. Lucky for me my boss is on maternity leave & my fill in boss's wife just had a baby so he's out too haha. I just want this over with.

Just read this article from a couple of days ago and it makes it seem like RoL will be very hard to get a seat for I've never seen the numbers presented like this regarding seating. Only 1/6 of daily guests will get seats per show...

Still hoping for a FP for 4/25, trying to keep positive

fastpass, will be very hard to get!! And we are going in 36 days
I'm hoping on the dining package.

I saw this the other day. I'd expect it to be CRAZY for a while for sure. Then it looks like it'll be challenging during peak times.

But with an avg attendance of 30,000/day, IF they do 3 shows a day (which I've seen rumored), that covers half of all guests that day with a 5,000 capacity.

All of this said, for a while I wouldn't personally plan on the show without a dining package or FP+. Feels like it would be too crazy, and I know our group...

Joining the thread! We're hoping to get a ROL dining package some time during our trip Sept. 11-22. Fingers crossed, and I will keep my eye out on the thread to know when to book

I realize off topic - sort of....Any idea when and if FP options will be released? Hoping for Tusker package but if not at least want to try for FP. we are there early May.

Question is someone could answer we check in on May 20th, can we start making Fastpass selection at midnight of the 20th or have to wait until the 21st? Thanks

Midnight of the 20th

I made my husband call at 7 hoping my child would sleep. Instead she woke up and my husband was on hold for a lifetime. I told him to hang up since you guys said there was nothing still lol. I am ready to give Stitch a run for his money!

No one knows anything right now. There has been no speculation on FP dates yet as far as I have seen.

We get there on the 15th of May and I can't do my Fastpasses until tonight at midnight. If you go in and check your days until (by going on the website and clicking your name under MDE you can find out for sure. I made this mistake last night and thought I could book today, but nope not until tomorrow.

I'm pretty sure it's the 21st. There are 31 days in March and 30 in April ... So the 21st is 60 days out from May 20

On the website Tiffins is now listed to open 4/22
