We are from O/S and try to stay 2 weeks each time. We find this is still never long enough 😂. We usually like to start or end with a cruise too.

We used an online broker (one of the main 3 that will come up if you Google) and secured a 1-bedroom at 11 months out. We were in contact with them beforehand, so the very day it became available they were ready to try and get it for us. A very easy process and we’d do it again.

You’ll be fine. We had credits left when we checked out of AoA and used the leftover credits at POFQ that night for dinner and chocolates in the gift shop...you have until midnight on checkout day to use them all up. Enjoy! Edited to clarify that we used them AFTER checking into POFQ.

Well by the time we walked from ABC to TSL they may have let people on only a couple of minutes early?

I think seeing the characters first (or even maybe half an hour in) is what I would do differently next time- I think you are onto something there.

We attended yesterday (Wed 10/3) and here is a summary. We are a family of 4- 2 adults and 2 boys, ages 2 and 4. It probably doesn’t need to be said, but for families with similar needs, both of our boys are autistic and we saw this as a good opportunity to experience TSL without the crowds. I...

I’m also at the GCH and we’ve been using the monorail all week as the walk to the DTD stop is much quicker than the walk to the DL front gates.

Yes, count us in as crazies too! Our boys (4 and 2) are both autistic and their obsessions are currently Toy Story and Mickey Mouse. The fact that we can go with smaller crowds AND now do character M&G at TSL is absolutely priceless. They are both up around 6:00am everyday, so the early...

This has made me VERY happy! Edited to say that I was just able to complete the booking process for Wed October 3rd. Can't wait!!

This would be fantastic- keeping fingers crossed. Would it first be released on Disney Parks Blog?

Woo hoo!!! RDCT Fireworks now on the schedule for the first weekend of Halloween (Fri/Sat/Sun), starting Friday September 7th at 9:30pm all nights. Have been stressing about this for months :goodvibes.

I’m jumping in to say that we had the same experience as well- between the laptop, my phone, my husband’s phone and the tablet, I was ready to throw them all out the window! It was 9:00pm for us here in Australia and I didn’t get it all done until 11:00pm (we are staying for 13 nights so we had...

I feel so guilty! As Australians we get a 10-day pass... love the flexibility it gives. Everyone is more than welcome to move here :wave:.

The corresponding Thursday night last year was a CM event and they closed at 5. I noticed that Touring Plans is projecting the same thing again this year. Of course we can’t be 100% sure, but it’s been lining up to look that way again.

HydroGuy thanks for the report- I always find your posts to be fair and detailed. In terms of making your room request, can it only be handled by the owner? We have also rented points (1 B/R Villa in September) and have asked the owner to request a similar area to where your villa was. Were...

Thanks for posting those links. After reading both of those responses, I think my understanding is the same as yours. Glad to have a better understanding now as our 60 days is rapidly approaching.

Very keen to hear too.

Thanks to you both!

We are meant to dock at 8:00am on the Harmony and are looking at doing a tour that begins at 9:00am. It's not an RCCL-run excursion, but is run by an independent tour operator in St Maarten. Do you think it's cutting it too fine time-wise? The tour group meets at the port, but I'm not sure if I...

Yay- have been waiting for a September thread! We’ll be there the 7th to the 13th. Our time in Anaheim is actually Week 1 of our 5 week US trip (incorporating WDW too!!) Night 1 is at the Tropicana and then we switch to VGC for the rest of the stay... simply can’t wait to get back to DL. :dumbo:
