Yay!! That gives me hope! I am grateful I managed to get 2 FP for FoP, but they are at noon, and I was really trying to only be at the parks in the early morning and evening (trying to avoid the September heat!). I have had no luck in finding any alternate times on my date. In a few days, it will at the 30-day mark, which means every one will be looking for FPs for that day.

Mine are for three too. I figure will get in some rides, a show, and some lunch then leave after FOP and head back, cool off and then out for the evening.

Ok total sidenote, but I'm so excited. Just bought our tickets to Frozen on Broadway for our daughters birthdays! Eeeeeekk. Their first Broadway show!

I had lost hope at 30 days out, but I actually got this one at 27 days out for the day we were looking. We moved it from 5 PM to 9:20 AM, so I was really happy. I have been trying multiple times a day since 60 days, so there is still a chance! The heat at AK was my main reason for wanting an earlier FP+!

My hopes of extended AK hours are getting more and more crushed each passing day.

THERE'S A FROZEN ON BROADWAY?!

 

[Mollymovacca]

My first day, 20th, MK extended by an hour! Maybe this is a good sign for things to come?!

I checked mine and we also had two Mk exstensions

 

[TNickell27]

I'm bummed about no extended hours at MK on Wednesday, the 13th! I was hoping for closing time at 10pm with EMH 10-12

My wonderful in-laws have DVC points that would expire at the end of November and told us DH and I could go and they would take care of our 5 month old baby! It was very last minute and was hard finding a Saturday that was not already booked. We had the option of a 2 or a 3 bedroom villa at OKW. It is kind of silly getting that big of a room for just 2 of us but they had the points available. I wish we could all go but they do not like leaving their 3 dogs at the kennel.

Anyone seen any updates on the new Minnie Van service?

MK recently had park hours moved to 11pm for both Sep 2 & 3.

 

[OatsZoo]

Oh my goodness you are going to look so cute in 26 days!! I'm definitely also trying to convince my DH on Disney tattoos

My daughter and I want to get the heart beat tattoo with the castle outline in the middle. Also we want to get matching Ohana tattoos since we love Lilo and Stitch and we are a family that uses Ohana as our motto. Disney tattoos all the way

My first day, 20th, MK extended by an hour! Maybe this is a good sign for things to come?!

Yep! 20th now until 9pm (with emh 9-11pm). 23rd now until 11pm and 25th is until 9pm.

So jealous of all the Magic Band talk. I am in Canada and we don't get ours till check in at the resort. They don't ship internationlly. Boo!

On a happier note....paid vacation in full today, put room request in, purchased tickets for MNSSHP for Sept 17th....today was a good Disney day

Anyone seen any updates on the new Minnie Van service?

Walt Disney World Resort roadways just got a little more fun, with the launch of a new transportation pilot called Minnie Van service. Announced earlier this month at D23 Expo 2017, this new transportation service is now available for guests staying at Disney’s BoardWalk Resortand Disney’s Yacht & Beach Club Resorts.

Through a collaboration with the US’ fastest growing rideshare service, Lyft, guests at these resorts can arrange their own private Disney vehicle right from the Lyft app on their smartphone. With Minnie Van service, Disney cast members will then whisk you away to wherever you want to be at Walt Disney World Resort. This service accommodates up to six guests and provides two versatile car seats so even the tiniest of passengers can travel in style!

Minnie Van service will be available between 6:30 a.m. and 12:30 a.m. (subject to change). Guests staying at Disney’s BoardWalk Resort and Disney’s Yacht & Beach Club Resorts can learn more by visiting their Bell Services desk. I heard they were 20 bucks a ride.

Me too, ours won't ship for 10 more days or so.

So now the question is ...$10 for an Uber to Blizzard Beach or $20 to take a Minnie Van...I guess we can do it once just to say we did it...lol.

27 days to go. I don't know why but the excitement just slammed into me today. I'd been keeping it at bay, but now I'm buzzing like a bee. It's going to be a long month.

19 days out - Let the PrePacking commence!

 

[Doug S]

Yep! It opens in March. Previews in February.

Tickets go on sale to the public Monday!

Just bought a ticket for the preview they're doing here in Denver the Friday before I leave! Thought I should see it before I go down so if anybody asks me about it I'll have thoughts.
