Hehe why thank ya....I'm usually the creepy guy lurking in the shadows lol

:saw:

 

[Miketheboss]

Supposedly fastpass+ reservations are available tomorrow for resort guests (according to Blog Mickey). I called Disney and they said it would be available 5 days from now?


Anyways, at what time would they show up on the app?

Nightly EMH to be held at DAK from May 27-July 4 from 11PM-1AM.

Full Press Release below:

That's really cool. Especially since this area will clearly be best experienced at night. Almost makes me want to pay peak season prices for a room. Almost.

We've mentioned the park closes at 3:30pm on May 24th, right?

Magic has a front page column stating that AK will now have tiered FP+. Only one Pandora ride may be picked as they will both be considered on the same tier. I don't know if they will create tiering for the other rides in the park as well.

I think they changed it from midnight to 6am about a year ago but I have never done FP online other than the parties so....

Apparently the two Pandora rides are in their own tier; everything else is in another tier. It makes sense that management wouldn't want everybody to be able to FP both new rides, but at least they haven't shifted (as of yet) any of the other big draws into that tier.

That's what many of us were expecting to happen.

I believe you are correct. That's what I read last year.

OMG that's whack!

Before ROL, that's about the time most of the guests used to leave AK anyway.

Interesting to note ROL goes nightly but only has 1 show a night after Pandora opens.

Well that makes more sense:

Rolling the dice and predicting that's when they are doing a media event. Trying to steal VB's thunder.

 

[Miketheboss]

They are labeling Valley of Mo'ara as sort of an attraction. Hike?

Im so glad this is opening up soon. It's taken forever.

 

[UniversalRBLX]

Definitely a long stretch that disney is calling the valley an attraction. Supposedly, this "valley" will have the bulk of the interactive plants... but why would they call it an attraction when Universal doesn't even count their interactive wands as such.

Looking at the most recent aerials, I see stairs coming out from the ground. As if you're coming out of an underground cave. I'm sure there will be technology that sets things off with your magic band.

Do you guys think they will have FP+ for the AP previews? We're staying at the campgrounds first weekend in May so we could potentially reserve 60 days in advance.
