Darn. I would have to spend more to upgrade my room.

Just in case people haven't seen it yet, a new offer for Nov/Dec was released today. I was able to save about $300 on my trip, so it's worth checking to see if you might qualify.

Is this just for Canada?

I don't live in Canada, so I assume no?

This is the story posted by DIS - http://www.wdwinfo.com/news-stories/disney-announces-new-magical-holidays-vacation-package-offers/

It has the link to the different offers.

When I opened the link it took me to the page for Canadian residents. I posted the regular link in my post above.

Looks like Epcot dining reservations that were held back have opened. I got the Coral Reef reservation I was looking for and there are lots of times available.

Did some changing around of our resort stay. It has been a crazy year and did an extended family trip a few weeks ago so was not going to do our December trip, but since our June trip was not the greatest, we decided to do our December trip, but shorten it up and drive instead. So we are at POR from December 27-31 driving from Iowa! Kind of crazy to drive down for that short of a trip, but as a family we need this! But I think that I am going to leave this trip a complete surprise until Christmas morning and start our adventure that night!

So excited! We just booked POFQ for Dec 24-30. Our first Christmas trip to WDW. We are driving from Canada. We are having so much fun planning this trip. It's going to be busy this time of year but hoping it doesn't bother us.

Staying solo at POFQ November 27th to December 6th! Excited to see all the holiday fun!

 

[caribbeandream]

There are a lot of people staying at POR-FQ in December!

Just got our party tickets for December 16th (thanks for the early b-day present mom).
My ADR day was a few weeks ago and got everything I wanted. Left some days a little open for flexibility.
Still waiting patiently for Candlelight Processional Dining Packages and Jingle Bell Jingle Bam dessert party info!!

Now I am thinking of booking FQ for the day we arrive. We have the Holiday Inn at Disney Springs booked but I think I will surprise my niece and sister. Especially since my mom took care of our Party tickets!!

We never did a PPO breakfast but I’ve always been intrigued. However, if we are going Christmas week, is there any point in booking these? If the parks change their hours and open early, that negates the benefit, right? Or am I missing something? How do PPO people handle this?

I am going to Disney for the first time as an adult in December. I had the same question - I ended up booking a PPO at BOG just in case in addition to BOG at lunch time. If the park hours change - I can cancel the breakfast and just stick with my lunch reservation. If the hours dont change I can do the reverse and keep my breakfast reservation and cancel lunch.

Hope that helps

What is the Character Couture Makeup?

What is the Character Couture Makeup?

I was curious too so I Googled it. It's like BBB for adults! https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/b...couture-packages-at-walt-disney-world-salons/

 

[Siome42]

I hope it's a cool experience. I picked the hair and makeup package. Now I'm trying to figure out what character I want my makeup inspired by. I'm not really a princess or a villain girl, so I'm struggling a bit. I'm hoping there will be a lot of photos between now and then of other people that I can look at.

Yay! My SW flight price just dropped so I was able to make a switch!
