Rumors of Light (ROL discussion thread)

[figmentfan423]

Oh my gosh, Clueless. This is just deja vu all over again. We have had our hopes for this dining package (or an ROL package) up for so long that it just doesn't seem real to see that now. I guess we will all know soon. Interesting that it says it is over $60.... I'm not sure I want to see the show that much.

Wow HopperFan, $79. I may have to re-think this is that is the new price!

60 is my breaking point fine for Tiffins but no way for TH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The rain has been crazy this week!!! Between Tues and this afternoon - my shoes may never dry!

We loved HDDR! So much fun! Tonight we did the Pirates and Pals Fireworks cruise! So amazing!! Highly recommend.

Tomorrow we have Epcot.

Enjoy the rest of your trip!

Enjoyed HDDR also. Will be at Epcot today as well. But we are going to try to leave before the rain

I can't even sign in on My Disney Experience this morning. Anyone else having this same issue?

Wondering if 7 am is more likely, since that's the time that the FP+ window now opens. Can't say I missed this routine.

Based on the SW dessert parties that also opened this week, we could book around 6:30ish. Doesn't mean it'll be the same for this one. In the instances of the dessert parties, the dates appeared on the calendar but bookings weren't available till the following morning. Even CM couldn't get around it. The day the June 5th and beyond became available the reservation system was VERY slow. It also kept giving people the message, it was unavailable to book (which was the previous day's message and true). On the actual booking day people reported having had hit refresh several times before being able to book.

I think once we get these JB booked, it will be dancing banana worthy. (Hopefully not a $60pp dancing banana; would love a $30 QS option dancing banana. )

I'm hoping for a $30 dancing banana too!

Difference here is I can't even get the JB dining option to come up, let alone search.

Hi friends! We're in the World right now! I just wanted to pop in and say that we're headed to AK today and I'm proudly sporting my button on the back of my Vera backpack. Say hi if you spot me!

*ETA- we'll also be in Epcot this afternoon. Keep your eyes out

 

[10CJ]

I see nothing

You're right. I could have been more clear. In theory, today's the day we get information according to prior blog posts. So if we get information, which might include dates that potentially could be shown on the dining ADR site; it may not mean immediate booking just because we can see it. Of course, you're right; if we can't even see the dates, we're not even to those hypothetical next steps.

I think this calls for a morning slice of cheesecake…. no wait, I mean healthy morning stroll. Yes, that's what I meant, sure.

You know your in trouble when the person on the phone goes, "you mean the ROL show?". She is checking.

According to Wendy - nothing yet. Same song, second verse.

 

[Tiggerette]

Haven't seen anything on Fastpass. On hold with dining, just in case Maggie's working today.

EDIT: I'm the 5th person this CM had about the dining package. Same story- nothing available to book, neither any dates the package would be available.

Well, at least my body is getting in the routine for early morning rope drop! *Cue Rocky training music*

 

[BridgetR3]

DRATS!!!! Come on Disney! We need to leave for vacation and I don't want to spend my every morning waking up before 6 a.m. to find a fast pass or dinner package, although at this point I'm simply hoping that maybe there is one.........

 

[Rivergirl2005]

They have to announce something today....Memorial Day weekend is next weekend. I hope they also announce FEA....

 

[yulilin3]

From the looks of it (posted on the entertainment tab on the HUB) it looks like the rumors that The Jungle Book show will start May 28th are true. No times have been given.
Hoping this was a mistype on there
