We currently have the QS Dining Plan (family of four, two kids ages 4 and 7). Trip is Aug 19-25. Still be hot. It's only 400 to upgrade to the TS version. Looking at TS menus it seems like 2 meals is getting close to that number.

Wait 6 nights so the math is even better.

31 min ago by popupcamper

Yah @popup it's 6 days. The kids eat free summer promo makes it fairly cheap to upgrade. I checked three times to make sure. But yah 400 bucks for 6 TS meals seems good to me. Will have to check with DH

4 min ago by tlrg4488

Then count in the 30-40$ tip on all those sit downs. Even though your meals are included you still have to tip and those character meals add up. Even in August with ac our appetite would have been a waste. You know your family best though.

I will cheer you on!

I wish! Good luck (clover emoji)

10:34am on 6/1/26 by Ali Ababwa

Let us know how it goes- what are you aiming to enter?

1:14pm on 6/1/26 by hodg

I think I'm going to do the half. DH told me this morning he wants to do it too. It was going to be solo as he always told me 10K was his limit but when I told him I was doing it he had FOMO.

1:52pm on 6/1/26 by popupcamper

But will he keep up with you?

3:24pm on 6/1/26 by hodg

He leaves me in the dust when we do 10Ks. I'm slower than molasses. He just finds running boring and thinks a half will take too long.

3:39pm on 6/1/26 by popupcamper

I'll be walking to go round the 5k with my DH- hopefully all good on new bionic hip by next spring.

7:12pm on 6/1/26 by hodg

Good luck this morning! I just checked and we can now enter the queue waiting room.

I'm in the waiting room on a few devices. Good luck everyone!

Hoping for the challenge!!!

I'm really hoping to get in this one! I didn't get into W&D and 2026 will be the first year my daughter and I haven't run a Disney race together since 2020! Fingers crossed for Princess 2027.

9:29am by tazzat

Anyone move from the waiting room yet?

10:04am by WildernessPixie

Does anyone have a timer yet? Mine still say in the waiting room.

10:05am by popupcamper

Heard it was delayed until 10:30?

10:06am by ccc298

RunDis twitter just posted that registration has been delayed until 1030

my phone is in the registration waiting room with a timer-bar but my computer is still showing the pre-queue.

10:08am by KangaLilo4

Disboards said Run Disney said delayed until 10:30.

10:08am by popupcamper

Thanks for the update! I'm dying waiting for it to open!

10:09am by jkowens

Should have refreshed. Okay I'll tell y'all a story. I usually register from work. My desktop computer, my work laptop, my boss's tablet, my phone all trying. Today was a run day so I decided to do my run as usual and register from home. I forgot since...

10:10am by popupcamper

All my devices say it "opens soon"

10:10am by jkowens

Thanks for the update! Was really wondering what was going.

10:11am by MrsBobParr

...I don't have kids at home I broke down our computer as we don't use it. So at 8:40 I was trying to find wires, a mouse, keyboard. Had to wake up DD to ask her the password. Also I'm using her laptop, but apparently she has it on fingerprint so I have..

10:11am by popupcamper

...to keep it awake so I don't have to go in her room and use her fingerprint to wake it back up (which I've had to do twice.) Good times.

10:11am by popupcamper

I also see a note on my phone that says that registration will be delayed and they will provide an update at 10:30.

10:12am by KangaLilo4

Good luck all!

10:18am by TumbleMonkeys

Still no in the pre que here :(

10:41am by ccc298

Delay is now until 11am

10:41am by georgejr1966

Hey yall, trying to get in but geez the delays....do we think they will reschedule all together to a different day similar to home they've done in the past

10:49am by DeeMac

Someone on Disboards who is supposedly reading the code (and has been accurate with the last two delays) says the code now says 5pm.

10:58am by popupcamper

I need to go to work so if it's not up at 11, I'm going to head to the office.

10:58am by popupcamper

Wow! 5pm. Hopefully it will be completed today!!

11:00am by momma4fun

Registration cancelled today. They'll update their socials by 8pm tonight with a new day. At least now my computer is set up!

11:06am by popupcamper

Now per rundisney instagram will not happen today update will be provided at 8pm

11:07am by ccc298

Yall - it won't take place today!! Update at 8pm.

11:09am by momma4fun

Thanks for the info and glad I didn't take off work this morning. It's the last week of school and each day is crazy so trying to smoosh registering in while at work.

11:13am by WildernessPixie

@popup, cannot stop laughing. Your kids are so easy going; probably didn't even wake up when you grabbed fingerprints again?

11:16am by Jennyhirsch

She sat up, put her finger on the fingerprint thing and went right back down. Twice. LOL!

12:14pm by popupcamper

As an employee of tourist attraction that has mad rushes for Christmas tickets to the event... you are hurting yourselves by logging in on 6 devices to get in. It crashes the systems & locks you out. If everyone did one device will be smoother. WDW IT ...

12:23pm by Magicalday2011

Oh my what a nightmare. Good luck to all when it does open. I've taken annual leave the afternoon to register for springtime as it's mid clinic 3pm U.K. time- I would be so mad if they did this again.

12:44pm by hodg

Unfortunately @magical it goes into a lottery so if you only have one device you only have one ticket to get in. The one time I didn't get in was my first attempt when I only had one device. I'm not logged in, I am in the waiting room.

12:52pm by popupcamper

Yup exactly. But then again we're selling 300,000 tickets in one morning ...

2:03pm by Magicalday2011

Ohhhh...you're saying collectively there's too many trying? Then Disney needs to up their game. It's less than 100,000 people trying - probably a lot less since most people are registering multiple people and for multiple races. Live Nation said they....

2:29pm by popupcamper

....were ready for 1.5 million fans in the US for Taylor Swift. Disney knows serious RunDisney racers do this to improve their odds. They should be prepared. It's not their first rodeo either.

2:30pm by popupcamper

(Apparently Live Nation got 14 million people trying which is what they couldn't keep up with.) Disney is much bigger than Live Nation. But alas we'll all try again when they open it back up and continue to give them our money.

2:31pm by popupcamper

Unfortunately true. Until they change the way it works, more devices equals more chances at a low queue position. Even if it gums up the works it does work.

3:10pm by Totsypooh

Disney announced it won't be today, won't be this week. They'll announce at least 24 hours in advance when the new date will be.

6:48pm by popupcamper

How crazy is that!! Any speculation as to why this happened.

Beverage coolers - just saw someone cracked the Cooler Code, SFL:

4:10pm on 6/1/26 by Ali Ababwa

collapse thread

Press and hold the function button for 2-3 seconds - the interior light should flash. 1 flash = 54F/12C 3 flashes = 45F/7C 5 flashes = 39F/4C Press the function button to cycle through the temperature settings.

4:11pm on 6/1/26 by Ali Ababwa

After a period (12-24 hours?) the red LED will illuminate and the cooler will stop cooling. Press the function button to reset the red LED and the cooler will return to your chosen temperature.

Has POR changed to beverage coolers? When we were at POR at the end of April, our room had a traditional mini refrigerator with a manual dial on the back of the unit for setting the temperature.

Bg1 is free, so I'd use that and skip on the paid for a chill trip

Just using BG1 on my upcoming trip that is focused on the 2 year old grandchild. Don't see any reason to use paid services.

We didn't have issues getting them a few years ago when we needed car seats. I think they have gone up a lot in price so I'd personally just bring one or use busses. You can make a mock request to see what is available, price, and how long is the wait.
