Nov 8-10th ( Monday Tues and Wed) hours just got extended at Disneyland from 9pm until 10pm. I was kinda shocked it wasn't until 11pm.
Do you think Dapper day will make DTD way busier on the Saturday? We arrive mid day and will spend some time in DTD after we get checked in etc.We will be there the 6th through the 13th (fly home the 14th) Oh dear lord. Why did they pick the 13th and 14th fro Dapper Day Stuff? The official opening of Christmas is Nov 12th. Eeeeek It is funny, may last day at WDW was Dapper day this year in April too. Wow.
And I think things will not be as strict on timing on Genie+ (if it comes out in Nov) in DLR cos MaxPass never made you wait 90 mins or your scan in for your current one (whichever is first) so I doubt they would make us wait 2 hrs like they are stating.
I feel the same, this trip is going to cost me a small fortune. What are your plans for tests on the way home? I have been tossing around the idea of trying the CVS/Walgreens route and getting a rental car but I don't think I will be able to relax waiting for the test results to come in. Paying $200 each is insane but spending the last couple days of our trip worrying about them coming back in time will stress me out.I'm kind of torn on Genie+. On the one hand I think I want to use it (we loved Maxpass) but on the other hand, this trip is already turning out to be a budget buster since we need Covid tests both ways (we are from Canada) and they are not cheap. Also there during the start of Christmas and dapper days....oh boy, it's gonna be busy!
We leave late on November 11th (11pm), arrive SNA 9am and plan on hitting the ground running. I haven't started packing yet, but have started a list of things to "not forget". We are celebrating my son's 14th Birthday on 11/15, so I am planning on bringing a few things to decorate the room, mickey masks, I got him a Birthday Button, etc.I am starting to think about what we would like to accomplish in the parks each day, being only myself and dh it will easy to just spend some time enjoying the parks etc. The first day we get to the parks is 14th, I expect it to be busy being a Sunday. Can't wait to see everyone dressed up for the Dapper Day!!
I have been watching some vlogs on the Genie + and it seems like it is pretty close to Max Pass. The biggest difference being only one attraction per day which sucks and maybe they will change that down the road. I would like to see it released now so some glitches can be worked out before we are there. I have never been to the parks without some sort of fast pass system so it definitely will be strange not to have that as part of our days.
Anyone started packing yet?
We just booked Covid Test Courier. They come to your hotel for $149/person. Results in 24 hours.I feel the same, this trip is going to cost me a small fortune.

My daughter’s 10th birthday is the same day! We fly home later that night, but we are making it special while we are at DCA that day (her choice). I bought her a rainbow tutu and a shirt that says “Best Birthday Ever” with Minnie ears on the shirt.We leave late on November 11th (11pm), arrive SNA 9am and plan on hitting the ground running.

Hoping it isn't as crowded that weekend as it has been this month!
Less than a month to go!!
I know, I guess we just have to temper our expectations and go in with the mind set that it will be busy and just pack your patience lolFor all of us going in and around the long weekend it is going to be crazy! I mean I knew that going in.... long weekend, start of holiday and dapper day... but all 3 of the DL hotels are booked solid. There are a couple of suites available and that is it.
Yay!! Happy Birthday to your Princess!My daughter’s 10th birthday is the same day! We fly home later that night, but we are making it special while we are at DCA that day (her choice). I bought her a rainbow tutu and a shirt that says “Best Birthday Ever” with Minnie ears on the shirt.
Does it get chilly at night?
We arrive at SNA early the 6th. We will start packing this weekend. Both for 86 degrees and 50 degrees. Cos it gets cold fast ast night when the sun goes down. Can you tell I used to live in the city of Orange? LOL
Which Walgreens location were you looking at? I didn't see one that offers the ID Now test in the Anaheim area. Although, it's quite possible that I totally missed it.I feel the same, this trip is going to cost me a small fortune. What are your plans for tests on the way home?
