It used to work from the UK a few months ago and then when I tried to book around a month ago I had exactly the same problem. Kept trying over a few weeks and eventually gave up and called to book it...

Oh dear - the flights I had planned for Kauai have shot up by more than $100 each. This makes it a tougher call - Maui for 4 nights could also be an option then. I’m driving myself crazy now!

Thank you for all the suggestions! Great advice here... I’m narrowing it down to Turtle bay or Kaua’i at the moment! ank

Thank you everyone for replying. I’m just bumping this thread as I’ve now changed our Aulani stay to four nights. The uncertainty of the construction was just too much to risk the entire trip! So I would love to hear opinions as to where else to stay for the other four nights. We could do: 1)...

Thanks for the reply! That was exactly my original thinking. However, the pool closures / construction for the time we are there is concerning me now. I feel that a few nights somewhere else might be a bit of a ‘safety net’. I guess the problem is no one really knows what it will be like until...

I’ve just been reading a few other threads and am now almost certainly thinking of splitting our stay. I was Ok with the construction at Aulani but am now getting a bit nervous after seeing the following podcast posted on another thread! Splitting the stay would hedge against the risk of how...

Sorry to also jump on your thread but we too have flights booked to Hawaii for our family (my wife and I, kids aged 5 & 10 and my parents in their 70’s) at the end of August which can’t be changed. We are renting points for a 2 bedroom suite. I was sad the lazy river is closed but we can’t...

Thanks for all the replies! We originally had a couple of nights booked in the Hilton at Waikiki because there was no availability for DVC rooms at Aulani at the end of our trip (Labor day weekend). Then a room for the full stay became available so we thought the hassle of moving and parking etc...

Hi everyone, I have 8 nights booked in a two bed suite from the 24th August to 1st Sep. It’s our first trip to Hawaii, and as we are travelling from Europe it may be a once in a lifetime holiday! I am now wondering if I should perhaps change it to 6 nights at Aulani and maybe do the last two...

Thanks everyone! I’m trying to find out if we would get 2 x $50 resort credit with the two bedroom, like we would if we got the two studios, or of it will be $50 per night (it says ‘per room’!)

Hi everyone, I’m looking at a trip to Hawaii from the 26th August to 2nd Sep. It’s our first visit and we are coming from the U.K, stopping at LA for a few days before and via San Francisco on the way back. It’s my wife and I, our kids (10 and 5) and my parents. Those dates in Hawaii are...

Hi, Is there any availability in a studio for two nights in August this year - 8/21 & 8/22? Ideally AK, BLT, Poly, but open to anything available! Could shift dates one day earlier 8/20 & 8/21 if necessary. Many thanks!

Hi, Any studios available for 2 nights (8/21 & 8/22, or second option 8/20 & 8/21)? Ideally AK, BLT, Poly, but open to anything else if those aren't available...or a 1 bed... Thank you!

We unfortunately didn't get our request at the BLT for a high floor even number on the outside. We had the opposite pretty much! However I think it's down to the fact we were booked in a lake view non lock off 2 bed, and all the 2 beds that met our requirements are actually lock offs. That...

When I was just there last week, the booths closed at 9pm when the fireworks started. The park was open until 11pm that day.

Buying a fuel rod saved me on my trip. My iPhone battery dies pretty quickly, and despite being fully charged in the morning, it can be pretty low by the afternoon. We were in HS, starting the Star Wars tour and I noticed I only had 30% left. If I didn't buy the fuel rod, I wouldn't have had any...

My 8 year old daughter and I did the tour and dessert party on Monday. We both enjoyed it, but I wouldn't do either again. I think they are good one off things to experience if you can afford it, but not unmissable experiences. We originally booked just the dessert party, but once I added in...

I'm doing the tour on the 4th September with my daughter. I'm a bit confused as to which character meets will be during the tour. Is it still Chewbacca & BB8, during the desert party? (and now there is no priority entrance for tour guests, is it advisable to do those straight away once the party...

Great thanks! Why does Navi River have a rider switch since it has no restrictions? I have a 4 year old as well - do you think thy wouldn't like the ride (or I guess they won't enjoy it as much as the older kids!)

Hi - thanks for the interesting strategy! Does this definitely work? I thought Rider switch only lets the adult on who had to stay holding the small child? I didn't think it would let the bigger kids who have already used their fast passes go back on for a second ride without queuing? Or have I...
