Jeez louise, where's that letter from them I got yesterday? :rolleyes: thanks for the heads up.

Did you receive a letter stating this? I seem to be the last to get mailings from DVC. It hasn't landed here yet.

But I have four reservations with DVC and each reservation number had changed as a result of the changeover.
 
Hey everybody! Important notice!

Disney has assigned NEW reservation numbers for all of our DVC reservations after the change over. Call MS to get your new reservation numbers emailed to you. The Vacation Details page still has the old numbers. You can find the new numbers in the Contracts page.

The contracts page? Which page is that? I only know to get to the reservation numbers from the vacation details page.

In the login page, go to the right under 'My Membership'. Click 'View Vacation Details'. After that page loads, click 'View Activity Statement'.

After that loads, select the Use Year Range and hit the 'Go' button. You will see the points of your various contracts being used for reservations. Note the new reservation number and the old number in parentheses.
 
Thanks for the info. I finally figured it out last night! I thought the DVC website would be updated to include new information. Huh, guess that will come later.:confused3
 

Good morning groupies. I have come to you for your expert advice on VWL. I love VWL and have been helping a friend and her family plan a trip at VWL. We have a question...

What is the best way to get to a 8am ADR at CP? (MK opens at 9)
1 - Early morning character bus? What time to be at the bus stop?
2 - Boat to CR and walk to MK? What time to be at boat dock?
Are there any other options?

Thanks so much!
 
Update on new reservation numbers: I am now able to see my new reservation numbers on the 'View Vacation Details' page. Can you?

Bottom line, get a character bus from WL to MK.

Check out the following thread!

I went there and got the following information.

Red Flag Resort Boats hours of operation are from 1/2 hour before park opens until 1 1/2 hours after park closing.

The operating times that are posted: Means 1/2 half hour before the opening time of the Magic Kingdom, rather it's EMH (morning) or regular scheduled hours. The boats also continue to run 1 1/2 hour after the Magic Kingdom closes rather regular closing time, EMH (evening) MNSSHP, MVMCP or Pirate & Princess Party.

The Red Flag Boats operate between The Wilderness Lodge and Magic Kingdom only. There are two boats that run between the Lodge and MK continuously, on the day I took the new route we had one large Motor Cruisers and one smaller Motor Launches serving the Wilderness Lodge with FWC having two larger Motor Cruisers.

The larger Red Flag Motor Cruisers Boats Holds appx 120 guest. Guest traveling in wheelchairs or ECV's have access without transferring from chairs and strollers may also be left open and rolled directly on board. Note:These larger Motor Cruisers will be able to load wheelchairs/ECV's, there is a Warning posted on the dock that states that due to water levels access to wheelchairs /ECV's may not be able to load. (thus the Direct Bus access between Wilderness Lodge and the Magic Kingdom) In over twelve years of visiting Wilderness Lodge I have never seen anyone in a wheelchair or ECV ever not be able to board, the boats are enclosed.

**Please note that if the Red Flag Boat being used is a Motor Launch the same boarding restrictions will apply for strollers or wheelchairs. They require a guest to transfer from wheelchairs to the boat with a step down. (strollers also need to be folded) The Motor Launch boats are unable to load ECV's.

Character Breakfasts Service will begin ½ hour before the earliest seating. The marquee on the bus will read "Character Breakfast." It should be noted that guests should verify with the driver which park the bus is going to for the character breakfast because there are different ones for different parks. They have the flexibility to allow direct transportation to the theme parks, and area resorts.

If you want to arrive early to any park you could catch a Character Breakfast bus going to the Park but unless you have a ADR or other scheduled event you will have to wait until the Park opens to gain access.

Please take note that all times are subject to change. If you have questions regarding transportation within WDW you should contact Guest Services for additional information.

Update on new reservation numbers: I am now able to see my new reservation numbers on the 'View Vacation Details' page. Can you?

Yes, I can. Now I'll have to call to see what the new DVC reservation number is for the RCI exchange my inlaws did into DVC for us in December.
 
Our 15 1/2 year old (as of yesterday) blue heeler is home only for the weekend and then we will take her in next Tuesday morning when our vet is back in the office to put her down. Her kidney treatment worked earlier this week but the liver is also very damaged and beyond repair. She is drinking, but not eating anything.

My sister is on her way from Minneapolis with my 12 year old niece to say good bye. She has her sleeping bag with her so she can spend the night with Topaz before they turn around and go back to Minneapolis tomorrow. The rest of the family will see her tomorrow at a previously scheduled family dinner.

She looks okay at this point although a bit thinner. We know she is ill though and don't want to make her suffer. She's been a good dog and deserves a good end.

I am very sorry to hear about your doggie. Pets become part of the family.

So sorry to hear this, pets are such an important part of the family.

I'm sorry Inkmahm. :hug: They do become members of the family even if they are 4 legged. I hope you all have a peaceful weekend.

BTW - we're back! Details of the trip & pics to come.
 
So sorry Inkmahm to hear your news. It's always so difficult to put a pet down. They tend to leave paw prints on our hearts.

Welcome back horselover! Looking forward to seeing pics!
 
Muushka - hope your trip is going well to visit friends/family

Inkmahm - so sorry about Topaz

horselover - welcome back! can't wait to see the pics and hear about your trip.
 
Inkmahm...prayers for you and your family during this challenging time.
 
Inkmahm

I am so sorry for you having to go thru this. It is tough when this takes place because they are such a part of you. Praying that God will ease your pain, and help reflect the good times.

I bit the bullet and called Disney Dining today to verify my dining reservations. They're all still there.
 
Franandaj - I couldn't agree more about the long table. It would really be a nice addition to the VWL. While we are at it I would also love the fold out bed from under the TV unit that is in VGC. We bring my niece often and that extra bed in the 1BR unit would be really nice.

Muush - Hope your trip is going well

WildernessDad - Thanks for the tip on ressie #'s changing. I have 2 trips booked and didn't realize the #'s were changed.

Inkmahm - Sorry to hear about Topaz.

HL - Welcome back. Looking forward to pics and a report.
