@acciobrain what is a live countdown email?
Epcot being so walled up is actually a blessing at this point, he won't want to spend a ton of time there so.... pool time!
For the first time I've been adding notes to the My Plans section on MDE. This way my brother can see my thinking for the days he's going to be there and give suggestions!
Does anybody know why animal kingdom will be closing at 6pm on wed 5/6? I looked up at wdwpre and undercover tourist and it seems that this is a good day to go to AK... but I just saw on Disney website that will not have the night show this day... so I’m not sure if this is really a good day to go to this park...Animal Kingdom will be closing at 6:00 pm on Wednesday, 5/6
My ADR day is tomorrow!!! I'm so excited! I have a quick question though, for some reason I thought the ADR time opened at 7am EST time and now I'm seeing 6 am EST. Did it change in the past year or am I just imagining things.
I thought same thing! I was told fast pass is 7 am eastern and dining 6 am eastern.

Thanks!!!! I think I will do ak this day anyway and take the advantage to get lower crowd. We don’t have park hopper but I’m not that excited to see ROL... I rather see shows with fireworks!Usually an early closing means some kind of private corporate event. Though AK is also closing early a couple of nights at the end of April, so I'm not totally sure on that.
Either way, it's a "good" day to go in the sense that the crowds will likely be lower due to the early closing. But if you wanted to see Rivers of Light, that's not the night for you. If you have hoppers, you can always plan on going there early and hopping somewhere else for the evening.
I got an email this week from Disney Destinations and every time I access it, it gives me a live up-to-the-second countdown for our trip! I know it's off by a day or two depending on how we tweak our arrival time for flights but it makes me so excited!@acciobrain what is a live countdown email?
Dear all,
I’m new here and I’m toootally control/planner freaky!
We’re from Brazil and my husband and I went 6 times to Orlando since 2011.
every time was crazy, a loooot to do, parks, restaurants, shopping, Walmart (yeah, Brazilians are crazy about Walmart!).
we are planning to take our daughter to Orlando next may. She will be 2y4m by them and I know that this time must be different, since the trip is for her (and no for my Walmart shopping)
that being said, my plan is:
1. wait for blackfriday to search for flights and hotels. Is it possible to find deals to Orlando in the blackfriday?
2. Planing:
- arrive in Orlando on apr 29th and stay at cabana bay resort.
Checking out on may 4th
(This week we will go shopping and go 1 day to SeaWorld).
- may 4th: breakfast at chef Mickey, check in on pop century and go to Disney springs
- may 5th (tue): MK
- may 6th (we): HS
- may 7th (thu): AK
- may 8th (fri): relax at the hotel
- may 9th (sat): checking out and fly back to Brazil.
do you think that’s a good plan?
help me pleaseeee
Cool!!!I don't know that hotels/flights have Black Friday deals, but it's worth a try.
Have you taken a look at crowd calendars to see which parks would be the best days? That's my only thought. Also, we'll be at Pop that week too. If we see each other say hi.
Cool!!!
I looked at wdwpre and undercover tourist website and it seems that we will get low crowd on that week
have you booked the hotel yet?
I'm wondering the same thing...it looks like they're closing a half hour earlier on Tuesday..that's a little strange.Anyone know why Rivers of Light isn't running Tuesday/Thursday the week of May 10? Was snagging ADRs for my trip today, and was planning to do the dining package on Tuesday, then looked to Thursday for a backup, and both nights are showing "no shows." FWIW, I grabbed Boma (dinner after a late afternoon arrival), BOG (lunch), Skipper Canteen (dinner), Oga's (3:45 cocktail), and Le Cellier (dinner).
