***The Official June 2016 Thread***

Hi, didn't know this was here. We are going June 11-17 which as a previous poster said is NEXT MONTH! We had a Royal Room booked, but then when the new discount came out we could get WL for $38 total extra. Yay! We are looking forward to a half-occupied resort so it will be less crowded during construction!

Just hoping things slow down at work so I don't have a hard time being gone a week.

We LOVE WL!! Its the first resort we stayed at so it's near and dear to our hearts!! We loved it so much we went back the next year!!

Just think of it this way - you being super busy at work will make your time away even better and more deserving!!

I was afraid of that! And our MK days are also the new morning magic ticketed days so even doing it at rope drop will be a long line. :/

I read somewhere that if you are at the VERY front of the rope drop it is a 20 min. wait, towards the end, a 40 min. wait and then pretty quickly upwards from there to 2 hours. As there are no breakfast reservations left, we are just going to have to commit to an early rise on Monday morning to try and get as close to the head of the pack as possible. I know we can do it.....last trip we watched the "Good Mornin'" train show. It was really special. But we were 5 years younger, lol.

Finally under 30 days! Now I'm debating purchasing a Shiloutte cutting machine or just embroidering/appliqué some shirts for me. DD's wardrobe is done. But I really love the glitter vinyl shirts! Decisions, decisions...

26 days until my first ever Disney World trip!!! I'm surprising my little sister (her first trip, too), and I'm so excited. She has no idea!

Ours arrived today, too! We were actually supposed to get them Saturday but there was a mix up.

Doing a happy dance paid the trip off today! Now just counting down the days.

We are still tweaking dining reservations and FP's! We switched our MK day from Monday 6/6 to Wednesday 6/8 since they added EMH at MK on the 6th. We may have a better chance of getting on 7DMT at rope drop Wednesday morning. No FP's available. But today, I kept refreshing the dining reservation screen and got a better reservation at Liberty Tree Tavern. So I guess these things are fluid. We were still hoping for lunch at BOG, but I don't think that is going to happen. All in all, though, happy with what we have planned. We are doing Universal on Monday and Tuesday, and haven't even looked at our game plan for those parks. Once all our FP's are made, then we can tackle Universal. Uggggh - the never ending vacation planning. Planning a Disney vacation didn't used to be this hard. But can't wait for the pay off!

So excited! We are getting close! Working on FP+ each night. No luck with Mine train and Test Track.
Looking to add a reservation for Sci-Fi for lunch or dinner but I keep checking several days and nothing is open. I could kick myself for not doing it months ago!

I kept a tab open on my computer at work and just kept refreshing and checking when I was waiting for a report to run, etc. Low and behold the heavens opened and we got a much better time at Liberty Tree Tavern. So keep trying. I keep hoping for BOG, but I think that is a long shot, for sure! But people delete reservations every day. We have a reservation at Prime Time we might be giving up for Thursday, June 9th @ 1:30pm for 5 people.

As for Test Track, you could do the single riders line.

 

[DisMom829]

Has anyone had success in booking the Early Morning Magic for 6/7? I keep trying and it says unavailable. I'm guessing it sold out and I should grab 6/11 while I still can. I was holding out hope though that the Disney After Hours got extended into June.

Flying with trading pins, checked luggage or carry on?

 

[ArielSRL]

Is anyone else on this thread doing a June PTR? I'm totally reading PTRs and TRs to pass the time and would love to read some from those going in June....

My vote would be carry on luggage. Anything you can't replace, like pins, medicines, the sandals or swimsuit you spent forever trying to find...carry on. I wouldn't want to have them lost in my checked bags!

I wrote a TR for our June 2015 trip, so you're free to read that

I don't write PTRs, since I can't usually come up with enough material to warrant one.

It's not a banned item because of the sharp point?

I wouldn't think so, but maybe it is best to check with someone who knows better than me!

Persistence paid off. I tried all day to get a Sci-fi reservation for lunch or dinner on one of two days. Not a single thing at any time was ever coming up. (Pretty much nothing available at any HS table service!) Anyway, during a half hearted refresh this afternoon...boom...12:20 popped up! Yay! We have 3 teens and a 9 year old who don't really remember this silly restaurant from our 2010 trip. They will love it! Bonus Day!
