When I called she told me to check my credit card again in a few days. That the charges should be reversed automatically because there wasn't an order attached to the second charged. I was on hold for about 45 mins before I got through.

We are going to our first (and probably only) Halloween party this year and am wondering about whether the Blue Bayou dining package is worth the cost.

Is the reserved area for the dining package a good viewing spot for both the parade and the fireworks? Do the fireworks start soon after the parade?

Trying to decide between the Halloween dining package or potentially the, significantly cheaper, fantasmic to-go dining package for our non-Halloween party day.

Thanks!

I think the Halloween package is the parade only- can someone else confirm? I'm not too interested in the parade but I'd love a priority spot for the fireworks. Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to exist. :(
 


I have our tickets for Friday, Oct. 27! This will be the 7th year in a row we do Mickey's Halloween Party :thumbsup2 and we hope to keep doing it for many more years to come!

Family of three - our 10 year old son will be dressed as Link from the Legend of Zelda. Husband and I will just be supporting characters with Legend of Zelda t-shirts because we're always too hot to dress up!

We only dressed up as a group once, for the 2015 party. Went as the Beagle Boys and hardly anyone, even cast members, recognized who we were supposed to be :sad2:. Has nobody ever seen DuckTales?! :laughing:

I'm in a some what similar situation coming from NY. I decided to go with the 27th just to play it safe. I just worry that it will be insanely crowded and busy since it is the last Friday before Halloween. I've never been to Disneyland for Halloween time so I really don't know what to expect!

We've mostly gone to the party on the last Friday before Halloween (this is our 7th year doing it) and we've never, ever experienced crazy crowds for this event. Almost everything is walk-on or ~10-20 minute waits. The only exception that we've noticed is Haunted Mansion and Space Mountain Ghost Galaxy, which do tend to get longer waits of ~45-60 min. We usually just wait until the end of the night to ride them.
 
We'll be there for the October 27th party!! I'm so excited! This will be our 3rd time doing the party. I'm looking forward to be able to go to DCA pre party too, as this may be our only day in the parks. I am going try and book the Halloween tea as well. I love fall and the halloween season, so I'm really looking forward to it all!

Something else that that has almost doubled my excitement is that we are staying at the Grand Californian in a one bedroom the night of the party. My dad just joined dvc and I have been stalking the calendar to see if any days opened up (they were all booked) and one day I checked and there was the 27th!!! I was ecstatic! Then today I snagged the 25th. Now all I need is the 26th and I will be able to piece together a little trip! Fingers crossed. I never dreamed I would be able to stay there. My husband isn't Disney fan, so he would never pay the prices they are asking. This may be my only chance to stay there and it has always been a dream of mine!

Only 3 more months!:cool1:

Hi, we have gone with the 27th. We are probably still going to buy a 4 or 5 day park hopper anyway so will have plenty of time in the parks (I know some people will say that's too much but I doubt we will be back anytime soon so want to make the most of it). My son is a huge cars fan and I'm so excited to take him to see cars land. He keeps telling me to stop talking about it. I think I'm more excited than him. X

I am an AP holder that flies from Colorado to visit Disneyland. I don't think 4 or 5 days is too long at all. That way you'll be able to relax more, take long breaks if you want, check out the hotels.... When we go, it is usually for a long weekend, late Friday morning till Monday early afternoon and I feel like that's too short at around 3.5 days. I have yet to see the Disneyland hotel and check out Trader Joe's (edit: meant Sam's, was thinking about needing somethings at TJs today). We love going on several of the attractions many times and I (not my kids so much) love to just sit and soak in the atmosphere. If there wasn't maxpass as an option, I don't know if I would recommend the park hopper. The first time we went we started with a 4 day hopper ticket and never used the hopper part - but we would be so tired from walking we wanted to cut down on going back and forth between park so for those with more energy, it probably isn't an issue. We also like to stick with the park without EMH for the day since it will usually have lower crowds.

Have a great time!!! RSR is AMAZING (try to go on it at night too - really cool)

We did Florida last year and only done about 5 days in the parks and it felt such a rush so hopefully for 5 days tickets here and only 2 parks we should get to see (almost) everything and do what we want a few times.

Thanks for your tips. We can't wait til October.

Oh for sure! You can totally do that out here! (To put it into WDW perspective, someone once said the size of DL+DCA = Epcot. So, you can do stuff a lot faster out here :) )
 
So OT a little:
French market in years past has had Jack skellington treats.

Do we expect them this year?
Will thy only be avalible after the 15th?
Can I get them take away somehow?

Size wise possibly but there are as many rides at DCA/DL as WDW (at least pre pandora)

5 days is a really nice amount of time at DLR. As with anything one persons version of having done everything and another's can differ.
Are you wanting to do lots of sit down dining? Do re-rides? Meet characters etc.
But with 5 days you should have plenty of time to experience everything you want to.
