Welcome Home Ed!!​

Can't wait to see your trip report and more pictures!!:beach: So glad to hear you had a great time!!:cool1:

There was lots of activity on the ROFR list while you were gone with some people graduating off of the list and some people being added and unfortunately some people not passing. I'm wondering if some of the people on the bottom of the list never checked back in to let us know if they passed or not.:confused3
 
I just checked the other ROFR thread out of curiousity. LadyKay did pass and Frankiesmom did not. So happy for one...so sad for the other. VWL is seeing alot of ROFR's, it seems.
 
Member Services and I had a wonderful conversation this morning and we are now confirmed for our first trip home! :banana: :woohoo: :thumbsup2

2BR at SSR with a request for either the Springs or Grandstand...trying to keep close to everything with M&D tagging along. Dinner ressies at Turf Club, Kona, Liberty Tree, and Spoodles! Tough getting some things and in fact we currently are booked as parties of 3 and 4. Brandy (CM in MS) did give me a group dining service to call and see if they are able to assist at Turf Club and others perhaps. TC apparently only does ressie max of 6. We'll see.

Look at SSR...MKM et al are coming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And that is 116 days 12 hrs 47 min 6 secs

Welcome Home ED! Was the basket worth the drive???
Awesome pictures. Can't wait to see more.

I spoke with my vacation guide today. He called me to introduce himself. I was assigned to someone other then the email told me. That was strange, but he was nice and very helpful. They are still extending OKW through the end of May for 15 years. DH and I are going for it. I asked because it seems so worth it to me :thumbsup2

Could you explain a little more about the 15 year extension on OKW. We will close before the end of May on our OKW and I was wondering what the 15 year extension stuff is about.............:confused3

Any information would be appreciated, thanks!!!

Vman - I have a friend here at work that told me about an extension that Disney had been offering on the OKW contracts. In Feb. she paid $15 a point. When my guide called me I asked about it. Now through the end of May you can extend your OKW contract through the year 2057 for $20 per point. Our 80 point contract will cost us $1,600 to extend for an additional 15 years. Disney will finance it or you can pay cash. There is no pre-payment penalty if you go through Disney. My Dh and I are going to do it, what to heck - another 15 years to leave to the kids is not too bad. :banana: :banana:

Thanks for the info!!! :thumbsup2
 
Welcome back ED. I agree it was so crowded! We went Early to the parks and rode what we could and then left at around 1pm. We usually went back at 5 or so. We spent much lass time in the parks this trip than ever before! Sorry we nver ran into you.

Congrats MKM!! That is so awesome! I am looking forward to that trip report!!!! Great to hear of the good MS experiences and all about your guides.

I have heard that the $20 p/pt extension is going to go up to $25 at some point in the future. I hope all you OKW peeps can extend, if you so choose, before that happens. Also, you may get paperwork to sign and have notarized that you are opting out. Something about Fla law and it is being required if you decline the extension.

We will cross that bridge when we get to it. Not sure what we will decide to do.
 
Good Morning all you Disney fans!!
Really nothing to report....still no word from the Estoppel stuff 20 days today! Yes I'm curious what was in the basket Ed??
Everyone have a great day!

The lady at work that told me about it thought it was already up to $25 pp - so I am going to grab the $20 while I can. $400 is $400 and I would rather save it. Wish I had known about this when I made my offer. I would have requested they extend it for me at the $15 pp. I would have paid more for it - it would have been worth it :)
 
Just wanted to pass along...Group Dining really did nothing for me. Talked to Gemini...told her I was Leo :lmao: ...anyway the best she could do other than ressies for 7 at midnight :scared1: was to tell me to ask at check in if our 3 and 4 could be pushed together. She said each of our ressies have the capability of moving tables.

If I remember correctly, we're going to be there at the same time, right? We're alos going to be at SSR in a 2-bdrm 8/18-23. We also requested either the Springs or the Grandstand! Great minds think alike!:thumbsup2

If you don't mind me asking, who is your guide? That's very interesting about OKW. I might have to call my guide, after I talk to DH of course, and find out about that.
