    Can’t get a room st GF 8 months in advance?

    Yes, that is what it says next to the rooms at the GF but I’m not searching a package. Was wondering if it says that anytime a room isn’t available. Strange. Thanks for responding!

    Can’t get a room st GF 8 months in advance?

    I tried moving the dates a bit and still no rooms. I didn’t have any package selected because I don’t think they are even running special promos for that far out. Unless I accidentally clicked something I just wanted a regular room, figured I’d look for deals later. Next step is to call Disney...

    Can’t get a room st GF 8 months in advance?

    I’m looking to book a trip for late March/early April and when I search rooms for 2 adults and 3 young kids it says nothing is available at GF for the package I’m searching. I’m not searching any special deals, just regular rooms. Is it possible they’re booked up already? The dates I’m searching...

    Thank you both! So if I were to call and book now would I be given a rate?

    How far in advance can you book resort?

    I'm over a year out and Disney's site won't even let me look at 2019. Anyone know when this becomes available? Also, I'm assuming this is a yes but can you change your reservation to be included in special offers that may be less money as they become available?

    No clocks in Disney Resort rooms?

    Just got back from our stay at GF and I was really thrown off that there was no clock in the room. We stayed a few years ago at POR and I don't recall the lack of clock but it's possible we didn't have one that trip either. Is this a Disney thing or just a fluke for my room. If they don't put...

    Recording/taking photos while on rides . . .

    Not sure if it's just me but I really wish Disney would crack down on this. I had my Pirates of the Caribbean ride basically ruined by the guy in front of me who had to record the entire ride on his phone. It was so distracting, I tried to ignore him but it's a dark ride and all I kept seeing...

    Fast pass rhyme or reason? Weird experiences this trip.

    We just got back and I couldn't believe how long some of the FP lines were. I didn't time it (wish I had!) but it felt like we waited 20-30 minutes to get on FOP with our FP. We were held for a very long time at the indoor section before they take you in to watch the video instructions. Not...

    Riding Flight of Passage while pregnant?

    I didn't grill him as to why but I'm assuming it was a blanket statement because he didn't know the specifics of each ride. I'm guessing maybe also based on what if the ride malfunctioned? He is an overly cautious doctor and we live in lawsuit happy NY, so maybe he was just covering his butt...

    Riding Flight of Passage while pregnant?

    Nope, regular old pregnancy. I was 16 weeks at the time. I asked my OB what rides were ok and he said "Really none of them. I would advise not riding any of the rides". All physicians looks at things differently I suppose.

    Riding Flight of Passage while pregnant?

    My doctor told me no rides at Disney at all, so I wouldn't ride.

    Anyone ever seen a guest ignore their FP window?

    Thanks, good to know! Hopefully that never happens again, I am now very careful about closing the app before I start doing other things.

    Anyone ever seen a guest ignore their FP window?

    Now I'm annoyed to know that the CM's are able to choose to let you through. Our last trip, my first ever using FP and the phone app, I had an issue with accidentally deleting our FP's. I had a baby and a 3 yo with me and as we were walking up to the line I had the app open in my phone and my...

    diapers in hotel rooms...what do you do with them?

    Not sure if this is real but I hope you realize you might be costing the hotel THOUSANDS in plumbing fees by doing this. I really hope you're joking.

    Kids missing school...how long is too long?

    I'm only doing this for this first time now. I was never taken out of school for vacations, my father would have never agreed to that. That said, I feel ok with a week or less in elementary school.

    Is it really that difficult to get FP for FOP?

    I'm nearing my 60 day mark and getting nervous about getting the FOP FP. I will be waiting the second the booking opens. Do I stand a chance of getting FP's? Also, different topic but can anyone give me a quick rundown of how ride swapper works? We'll have our 6yo, 2yo and 1yo with us. I'm...

    Grand Floridian vs Contemporary with young kids?

    Tough decision! That's for the input everyone!

    Grand Floridian vs Contemporary with young kids?

    Which would you choose? 3 kids 6 and under. I was originally planning Contemporary for convenience, not thrilled with the decor. You can't beat being able to walk to MK. I've never been to GF but it looks very nice, still on the monorail for convenience with the stroller. Never stayed at...

    Pool days during Halloween stay?

    We'll be staying in the days around and including Halloween. I'm reading the normal high is mid 70's. . . Does that equate to pool weather? I know at home I'd think that was on the cool side for swimming but maybe with the Florida humidity? Do people normally swim this time of year?
