Everyone needs to be on the reservation, even babies. This is needed so they can enforce fire codes for capacities.

 

[amyg1975]

Yes, all 7 people.

 

[Darkhaund]

i see.. but my toddlers and baby wont be charged for hte package right_?

 

[amyg1975]

Correct. They just need a number for seats and fire safety.

I have 6 in my party and had to book 2 separate ADRs. You can call Disney and do it on one account, I just did one on my account and one on DH's.

I’m excited to be introducing my wife & 4 year old daughter to DL this May, as well as celebrating my 40th in the park. I myself have only ever been twice, but not for over a decade and never staying onsite.

We’ll be arriving the morning of the 1st, with 4 nights booked at the DLH and 3-day Park Hopper tickets. Our plan is to spend the arrival day exploring the pool, hotel and DTD - then have Wed, Thurs and Fri in the parks.

I’ve reserved WCT Paint the Night packages for the Wed and Thurs night, as we haven’t decided which night we’d like to see it (and will cancel both if the packages aren’t necessary), and the BB F! Package for Friday night.

Let me know if there’s anything else I can do to prep at this stage - 34 days to go!

I’ve been trying to absorb as much of the expertise I can from these forums, and just wanted to commend everyone here on how positive the threads feel. I’ve dipped into other Disney Park forums that seem to have a lot more negativity happening.

 

[Darkhaund]

I am also very excited.. taking my wife and my 2 year old and I will be celebrating my 41st bday there

Entertainment schedule is up for the first 9 days -

• Together Forever is scheduled every night!
• F! on Fri/Sat/Sun (4th/5th/6th)
• Pixar Play Parade @ 6pm on Tue/Wed/Thurs & @ 3:30pm/6pm on Fri/Sat/Sun
• PtN every night at 8:45pm plus an extra show on Sunday @ 10:45pm

It does show POTC (only thing at DL) and WoC (alongside all the Pixar Pier stuff) as closed for refurbishment.

We booked our first trip to the DLR for May 5th-12th. Staying at the Park Vue Inn.

 

[mrjudkins]

Heads-up to those staying onsite: I spotted that the nights we booked in May at DLH now have sale pricing:
https://disneyland.disney.go.com/offers-discounts/room-stays/

I called the reservations number, and there was availability to move us from a deluxe to a premium pool view room AND refund us $208 in saved cost.

 

[Darkhaund]

I already got F! booked... it is awesome news that Together for ever is every night.. so we got plenty of opportunities to see it.
As well as PtN which i think we will just camp a spot on the sidewalk

 

[AndreAggie]

We made our reservation with Minnie & Friends character breakfast at the Plaza Inn. I tried to book it online and for some reason it kept giving me an error to reserve it with my credit card. Then I called. After 15 minutes on hold, I hung up. Then I went through the app on my phone and got it done in about 30 seconds.

 

[Pamela M]

I found calling in for the packages was easier than getting exactly what I wanted with the online booking.
I've got the following booked so far:
Hungry Bear Fantasmic package -late show
Tea at Disneyland Hotel
Paint the night reception
Going to do the Walk in Walt's footsteps tour as well but have to wait until I'm 30 days out. Almost there 32 days out.

 

[Darkhaund]

Cant believe how FAST time is flying by.... almost there woot.

I am still unsure if I watn the MAXPASS...
