Anyone else patiently or not so patiently waiting for August dates to open for Frozen Ever After Dessert Party?
I’m so sad about the DAH announcement. We get there Aug 9th so we miss MK by 1 day and from the looks of it there will be no August dates for HS. I guess I should be happy to have AK DAH but I was really hoping to do all 3!I'm surprised there's no chatter about the August DAH dates. I've given up hope for DHS. My FP day is June 4th and I don't want to change my FP once I get them. I re-adjusted my plans to do Aug 12 DAH - AK and added more regular park ticket time to DHS. We are bummed about the reduced capacity at TOT. I moved stuff around so we could rope drop DHS to hit TOT one more day.

Also, we did the Frozen Ever After dessert party last March and they didn’t release the dates until about a month out. So frustrating!! It was a fun night though.

I'm reading they are all sold out right now. i see conflicting info on if they are going to adding more immediately or that they might be adding different options too. Guess it's now gonna be a wait and see since no one knows how quickly they will be back in stock.
I'm a little nervous about pre-SWGE crowds now. Just looked to add a night (Tuesday, 8/21) onto our Pop stay, and there are zero rooms available, even at rack rate. Hoping it's just that they don't want single-night reservations.
Just booked this week for a stay at the Grand Floridian from July 30th to August 7th and then I will do the 3 day cruise on the Disney Fantasy. This is my first Disney World vacation longer than three nights in ten years. I have been doing only short stays at the front of cruises out of Port Canaveral, but with the deals for Disney this summer, I decided that this would be a good time to do a longer vacation. It seems so strange in deciding my plans that I don't have to try to cram everything into three days.
One day I hope to stay at the Grand Floridian. I do plan on my hubby and I going over to check it out this trip. I'm sure my desire to stay there stems from Full House when uncle Jesse sang to Aunt Beckie
I've been reading more people are having trouble getting SDD lately. However I think it depends on which days of your trip you are making them for.One week today, I can do my FPs! Which is harder to get, FoP or Slinky Dog? I'm not sure which to try first.
2 months and one week away from trip time for me. WHOOP WHOOP! I got shipping notification that my magicbands have shipped. I guess because I upgraded from solid color ones they are coming earlier than normal.

I guess I need to narrow down if I want to keep breakfast at Chef Mickeys on Friday August 9th or not as well. That is really the only ADR I have that I am wavering on. I have that day as a possible Animal Kingdom day in case I have a better shot at getting FOP FPs and can't get them on the Tuesday before. I have a decent shot at getting them
tuesday since its our third park day but just in case, I wanted a back up plan. I can also use the friday as a partial HS day if I can't get SDD FPs on our original HS day. We do have hoppers so if need be I can start at one park and go to another to work around FPs I get for that particular day. I could also swap my Sci-Fi ADR to Friday if there are any openings or just cancel on our original HS day and make Friday the main HS day (depending on all the extra events (like after dark, extra hours, etc) that may come into play. Basically I am at a stand still until I book FPs next week.
I'm a little concerned about our MagicBands, but I'll wait a few weeks for Disney to try to get the new stuff sorted out before I call. We originally chose solid color MagicBands, but then I upgraded our kids' bands. We got through the checkout fine and paid for them. I also got the confirmation email that they were ordered. Yet, when I log into My Disney Experience, it only shows our original selections--all solid colors. Hmmmm.
I have a couple days in the air too. I want to do AK in the beginning of our trip but I’m not sure i’ll be able to get the FOP fp that early.
I just got the notification that mine shipped. Hopefully I get the 2 upgraded bands. MDE isn’t working for me today to see what bands it has.
I still need to get my Artist point/Snow White ADR. I was able to get a BOG lunch. It’s not on the day I wanted but I think it should work.
Same issue here. MDE shows my DD's band the one we picked but the rest solid. I also got the confirmation email with the correct ones we picked. They already shipped and are expected to arrive tomorrow so I guess I'll see then.I'm a little concerned about our MagicBands, but I'll wait a few weeks for Disney to try to get the new stuff sorted out before I call.
