Good morning fellow crazy Disney people. I’m ready, just skimmed to catch up. Off to stalk the canary thread.

To everyone getting up: you missed it around midnight when we all thought it had already crashed.

So, lessons learned:

- When I expect Disney to trick me, it tricks me by not tricking me
- Fitbit silent alarms work and do not wake up your husband
- This is the only place I can disclose setting hourly alarms to plan a Disney trip and only have my sanity *slightly* questioned
- You guys are the best (I knew that already)

SOON IS FINALLY TODAY LET'S DO THIS

It’s completely irrational that I currently need to throw up... the anticipation

The DVC website has been down for the last 10 minutes. We're not off to an auspicious start this morning.

Or get picked on for not being fully committed to the half hour alarms.

Used to I was able to switch between UK, US, EU site but I can`t anymore.
How do you do that ? Are you in EU or UK ?

In US and I couldn’t switch back from EU last night. Just got up so haven’t tried yet this morning if still the case,

I feel like this is what years of Fastpass have trained us for.

On Facebook seems like a lot of AP's are looking to cancel their pass. Some because of the virus but a lot more because of the 3 day rule. Disney can't afford to alienate their AP base right now. If Ap's cancel who will go to the parks? They have a very short memory. AP's are who kept them afloat after 9/11.

Plus it's another huge chunk of refund cash they will need to pay out perhaps needlessly with a few tweaks.

I feel like Fastpass was just a baby compared to what I anticipate this beast to be...

Good morning everyone and good luck!

When you reserve and it says pick a time, some thought it was going to be staggered entry. For WDW parks, the choice of time is simply the park hours,

So you can arrive and leave when you want, There are no limits to how long you are there.

Why on earth are they bothering to ask guests that? Most will select the longest day possible.

Makes no sense, like many things Disney is doing right now.

Maybe once this all goes live and people do get in and book, Disney will come back and be able to say they can hold more days at a time? I would be shocked if that holds past 2020

My work laptop sucks (it’s using like IE 10 and I need an admin to enter their login to download a new one) so I woke my husband up for his. Trying to connect to hotel wifi now. Come onnnnnnnn.
