I feel bad for all of you leaving in the next few months, at least I'm not going until October.

I have to agree with that there!! We are October too and so glad for it

I think someone over at DPB is deleting comments. I'm not seeing any for the ducks or for Bob Saget anymore -- and I could definitely see them a few hours ago. The Lego ones all seem to be there, though.

Yep.. I'm sad that I missed some of them today before they got deleted.

 

[ArielSRL]

They were?

Yes...they were set to do it March 11 or 12th and they received a memo that told them booking was postponed. I was one of the ones who called in several times over those 2 days.

I'm thinking Disney IT is just in shambles any, because my 180 days was today and I couldn't book anything online!! Could we please get back to normal as far as park hours and making ADR's on time. Btw I stood up for us and also made a comment for ROL on Shanghai blog!!

I remember those days....back when I thought if I woke up at 6 am there would be a dining reservation for ROL....now I get up when I get up lol

My 180 day mark was today as well and I could not make reservations online. I was SO upset UNTIL....I resigned in and went through it again and BOOM reservations were made magically

I was able to change an ADR today to a new time, online.

I tried logging out and signing in a few times it didn't work. I just called Disney dinning, but have never had to do that before! Could either use website or MDE! They seem slower than normal to put out park hours also. Last year knew almost a month in advance what was going on.

Lame.

The Lego one is still there - perhaps they haven't decoded that one! but I agree the message must be getting through - hope it helps!

Well, you know how I called yesterday and I was told that they couldn't add the dining plan without converting me over to a package, which would mean cancelling all my reservations, which include some extremely hard to get dining reservations. I called today to try to add another day to our ticket because we decided to go to club villain. This CM told me that they would have to cancel my current tickets and reissue but that may cause me to lose my fastpasses. Oh, heck no! I'll just wait.

If you have a MagicYourWay package, you can change your tickets under the My Reservations link. You'll have to pay for the upgraded ticket but you won't lose any FP+s or ADRs. I do it often.

I loved the replies to that one!

How long does it take to get a comment approved? I posted this in response to yesterday's "Dates Announced for 2017 D23 Expo" ...but nothing yet:

"So awesome that the dates for next summer’s event have been announced. It’s great to have information in advance. It makes planning a trip so much easier! Now if only some information about next months Animal Kingdom events could be announced."

Did I take the sarcasm too far :/

The comments on Huey, Dewey and Louie have been removed. I just went to check to see if anyone else posted anything.

ETA: I guess I should have kept reading before posting....sigh....

Ohhh, I'm so excited! I've always wanted to go to the D23 Expo and I bet this one will be the best one in years! Even better than last year when they announced Star Wars Land and Toy Story Land. I really think this year will be when they announce that often rumored, but never confirmed ... no, not that 5th park in Orlando ... it's the show schedule, FP+ availability, dining package information for Rivers of Light and extended hours for the nighttime fun at Animal Kingdom! Yes! I know how excited everyone is going to be about this, so get your packages booked asap so you don't miss out!

These are both awesome! Hope your comments make it onto blog!!

I think they are on to us now unfortunately.

FP+ for a May 31st Mommy Daughter trip are coming up and I was hoping for FEA and/or Soarin and evening safari and/or ROL FP+ and it doesn't seem than any of them will be obtainable... maybe we should just go to HS instead. Indirectly increasing attendance by making Epcot and AK frustrating to plan for...

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

Evening safari is the one thing I am looking forward to most, even more so than ROL!!!

 

[tinkerhon]

It's almost that time !!!

The Disney World website has been down for maintenance all evening. Do you think this is because Shanghai came online this week? Or do you think we're about to get a huge release of information? It's a long time for standard maintenance.

Dare we hope for info at long last? Could it be that the DPB comments were removed since the powers that be knew our questions would soon be answered?

Man, that would be great--- but not getting hopes up--- more likely reason ......
