I missed it too!

Excellent news! If Port Orleans was open for our stay this month, that's where I'd be. But glad to hear they're finally re-opening. The only downside, more people and still not FP+ or any attractions added to draw crowds.

I dunno, I was thinking of doing a quick one, with one day a waterpark and Boo Bash, get to MK for Fireworks and another day with park-hopper to check out HarmonioUS. It's...tempting. I did a very similar itinerary for Villains After Hours in 2019 and it was great!

Well…maybe if Disney would sell me an AP….

Looks like they are adding more tickets to already sold out nights. Sept 14th which was previously sold out, now has added tickets available.

And every other date that is sold out is still sold out.

I would at least wait and see if other dates have capacity added before trying to give out I told you so's....who the heck knows what's going on over there anymore.

I wasn't giving out I told out so's. This is the 3rd time they have done this so far.

Really? What was the second time?

I just don't think it's going to be as crowded as everyone is panicking about.

I just don't think it's going to be as crowded as everyone is panicking about.

There was an initial one when a great many of them were updated to show availability. Then a week or so ago, a very few popped up with new availability and now this one. Honestly, I was highly suspicious at first that they were increasing capacity, but with it being just a very few dates popping up now and then, it may well be a case of people changing dates and creating small pockets of tickets available.

That said, we're a month away and we'll all know just how crowded sold out it.

The first time they added tickets to just about every date other then Oct 31st and Aug 10th.

Will it be crowded as a normal day no but I think it will be more crowded then past After Hours events.

Thanks - I thought poster meant they added to all the days again.

I agree- now it seems more likely an add here or there correlates with people moving dates around.

I just don't think if they were actually increasing capacity they'd do it 1 or 2 dates at a time.

Call me crazy but I’m a little sad. I rented DVC points for our January trip at Kidani but probably would have booked Port Orleans if I had known it would be open. I love it there.
I know we will have a great time at Kidani though . There’s always a next time!

Our last stay at WDW in the before times was a split stay that included a few days at Port Orleans with just my grandson and I before the rest of the crew joined us. I absolutely fell in love with it and can't wait to see it again. Some of my best memories are from that stay. We may or may not have eaten our weight in beignets.

Not the element of fun, but yeah, it is news from Disneyland Paris.

Besides backlash regarding changes to FP and to the annual passes, another thing caused backlash yesterday. A woman who was breastfeeding in public was asked by security not to do that...
Of course it went viral, politicians got upset, Natasche Rafalski said that they regret it, and it's not in line with policy... but yeah, it did happen.

Unfortunately, breastfeeding is generally looked down upon in France, not just in public. This doesn’t justify the treatment, but it may explain why it happened. Still sad and pathetic though,

The Ride Swap is no longer a rumor, unfortunately. That is now confirmed via the WDW website.

Where do you see that? I just looked at Rider Switch on the WDW website and it still says 3 people per rider switch pass
