News Round Up 2019

[SG131]

curious if that is going to happen at all resorts or is this an indicator about the Skyliner running by then

I'm curious to know when they plan on starting to run resort transportation. My first park day won't be until Friday, but I'm still expecting to need a very early start.

I'm not sure how long the website has been updated but I just went to price out a potential trip for next year and realized they've made the option of adding a dining plan much clearer.

When I click to add a dining plan I now see this:



It makes it much easier for newbies to understand what the options are and what is different about each dining plan.

I don't get it. Is there some reason why everyone is suddenly signing up for the D23 Gold membership instead of the general one? I would hate to miss out on something fabulously cool!

No special reason to b d23 gold unless you want the magazines this years pin gift and the possibility to enter d23 sweepstakes to try things at wdw. Its not a bad thing to have, also the pop up events are fun. But for the d+ discount no there is no reason to have a gold account

I've never been a member of D23. Is there a free membership? If I join now, will I be eligible for the $140.97/3 years (or whatever equivalent price is for Canadians)? Have any Canadians who are D23 members, successfully signed up for the 3 year deal?

 

[Firebird060]

Yes there is a free verison of D23 memberships, as for Canadians being able to sign up for Disney+ with the free memberships, I wouldnt be able to answer it, but other free members who arent Canada based have been able to

 

[Ambehnke]

I just signed up for the free membership. No offer there. At least not yet. Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

There are reports that halloween mugs have been seen at resorts. Hoping to find one Thursday.

I didn't sign up for Gold. I signed up for the Disney+ offer. I was stating that the offer was available to me as a general (free) D23 member.

 

[only hope]

I am not getting this offer window on my screen. Anyone else?

Not showing up for me either, tried mobile and two desktop browsers. Hopefully we get the newsletter. Or maybe it's not available to people who just signed up for D23? I didn't sign up til 8/22.

Someone reported in another thread either here or at WDWMagic that they would have a link in the next D23 email newsletter, which goes to both free and gold members.

I signed up less than a week ago and I got it so you should be eligible. It would only show on the desktop for me.

I just found out that some resorts are opening their food courts at 2:30am on Thursday. This is amazing so now I don't have to eat leftover MNSSHP candy for breakfast. (using pop as an example)

 

[scrappinginontario]

Guessing they will continue this or a version of this throughout the months that EEMH are offered! I just checked and our DHS date of Tues, Sep 10 shows Everything Pop opening at 4:15am. Yay! Hoping Mobile Ordering is open early so can order then head right to a bus or even better, the Skyliner if it's open!! Will wait and eat once we're at DHS, waiting in line for it to open. That's the plan anyways.
