Just wanting confirmation of something I'm pretty sure is true - if Im staying at the Dolphin, I CANNOT book Fastpasses for lunch at Be Our Guest in the Magic Kingdom, correct?
I just looked at our reservation paperwork from May to give you an idea: Our trip was May 5-10.
all rates were AAA with $50 resort credit per room
1/6 booked 2 standard view rooms base rate $215
1/24 changed to 2 resort view rooms base rate $233
3/7 rate dropped to $207 for 2 resort view rooms
4/22 (two weeks before trip!) rate dropped to $167
I have no idea how the nurse/teacher rates compared to those. We were there right before Mother's Day and Star Wars weekends began so a relatively slow week. We used the two $50 resort credits at the pool bar restaurant which was quite nice on our arrival night for dinner before heading to Studios for eve. emh ( a tip from someone on these boards )
Good luck!
i don't believe so. We leave in 2 weeks and I've not been able to get the BOG lunch site to work for us with our confirmation numbers. Thankfully I scored a 4pm dinner which I think will be better then the lunch. So keep at it!Just wanting confirmation of something I'm pretty sure is true - if Im staying at the Dolphin, I CANNOT book Fastpasses for lunch at Be Our Guest in the Magic Kingdom, correct?
On to my quick question:
If I book Swan/Dolphin can I book FP+ 60 days out or is it 30 days? Considering dropping my $400 a night with a discount BC reservation for Spring Break for a $250 a night Swan instead.
Have a great trip. What a great rate!!!Just an FYI for those of you looking for better rates...I was able to book the Dolphin, on Orbitz, for $108 last week for the weekend of Nov. 14. I was so impressed with the price I immediately canceled my pass holder rate at CSR and booked a car. Still coming out ahead.
This short trip is a surprise for my oldest's 13th birthday! I can't wait to try this new resort. It's a very short trip, but is there anything we shouldn't miss at the resort?
Have a great trip. What a great rate!!!
I think some of the Christmas decorations should be up, they are always so pretty. at both the Swan and the Dolphin. The restaurants there are great, make sure to try a few. Your son may enjoy Fresh and Garden Grove. If looking for a splurge for your now new teenager, and if he and you are steak eaters, try Shula's. Definitely a splurge, but great. Depending on the weather, the swimming area is also great withthe Grotto pool area.
Enjoy a great resort.
A bummer.From past arrivals on Thanksgiving weekend - I wouldn't expect the Swan and Dolphin's Christmas decorations to go up until that week.

Fresh is great for breakfast.Thanks for the tips on dinning. I love steak, him, not so much. He's a huge breakfast eater, so I'm sure we'll do something special for breakfast.
Dan, How is the knee rehab going?
Thanks for asking, guys. It's coming along, better every day. Was in the nursing home rehab for 2 weeks post hospital, came home from there 2 weeks ago. Now doing outpatient physical therapy 3 times a week...going later this morning. They do give a work out there. But making good progress. I have about 6 more weeks of outpatient. Again, thanks......Hope the rehab and recovery is going well Dan.
