Planning has commenced for a family and friends Festival of the Holidays 2026 vacation! We are in process of renting DVC points for a grand villa and possibly a studio, both at OKW. Our son in law is a combat disabled veteran and will be able to ....

.....obtain park tickets at a reduced rate. Planning on attending MVMCP with the grands and hopefully some of the adults can go to Jollywood Nights as well. I'm looking forward to planning some character dining as well.

7:37am by TacMed

Most likely we will be there for the second week of December so we can enjoy all of the parks in their holiday finest.

7:39am by TacMed

Sounds like that will be a wonderful vacation!!

Just got my Membership Magic Beyond purchased for 2026 now I can finish booking my June trip with half price OTUPs.

7:43am by hawkeye91

I think I might try it for 2026 too. I think the OTUP is the best benefit too. And maybe the priority list for the MK lounge. Seems like they could at least throw in free valet too like back in the day!

First time Candlelight dining package attendee questions - how early should I arrive for the 8:15 performance? Attending Saturday 12/27 for Brie Larson. Will I receive a physical ticket or is it all digital?

Agree @Jenny

We love Cask & Larder!! It better not leave!! I would love to hear from people at MCO in the next few days regarding how much extra time is needed due to the construction. Need to adjust my plans. Thank!

What is zombie stacking that all the young people are talking about? Does it mean using the 2 hour return window for LL?

9:57pm on 12/8/25 by candyls1

Yes. If you let the LL expire you can book another and still use the old one in the extended window. So you can be holding 4 or 5 at the same time.

6:36am by melcort10

Thanks! I haven't used Multipass the last few times because even when I try to book right at 7:00 am seven days out, the only times left are for after 10:00 am, and we usually leave the park by then

BG1 back...? Was booking LL this morning and was able to modify times a tad using BG1. Joel, you amazing Disney wonder person. Even if that's all I get, I'm so grateful! Xoxo forever!

I need to check the forum. Would be awesome if that's working again!

7:27am on 12/4/25 by youcanfly

I just posted on the thread and tagged @joel. MDE just did another update?

7:32am on 12/4/25 by PrincipalTinker

Following and hoping! :)

7:34am on 12/4/25 by missWishes

Whaaaaattttt? I booked LLs yesterday but like my times so I'm afraid to try it out. Does OP have DAS? BG1 still works for that if I remember correctly.

8:44am on 12/4/25 by JenniferB1975

Following here and on the forum. Hoping and hoping!

9:08am on 12/4/25 by katienowaity

I pushed an update this morning that will hopefully let people book LLs again. I can't make any promises as to how well or how long it will work, but at least it's something. Heading down to Orlando now, so if it stops working I won't be able to do much.

9:30am on 12/4/25 by joelbruick

Sweet! Headed down now

I was able to mody my existing LL to overlap using BG1 this morning. Thanks Joel!

Great news. Looking forward to being able to book and modify using BG1 while we are here.

2:33pm on 12/4/25 by Dell795

Amazing!

3:07pm on 12/4/25 by HairyBaby

Thank you for everything you do Joel!!!

3:19pm on 12/4/25 by BlastThatPeterPan

In the parks today, grabbed TOT at the 1pm drop with BG1 and moved up some later times. It's working great and couldn't have been better timing for our group. Not sure I can say thanks enough Joel! So grateful.

3:32pm on 12/4/25 by MakeYourselfStellar

Oh my gosh!!!! Thank you soooo much Joel!!! I've been struggling like a newbie these past couple of park days with MDE bc it's so horrendous. I've been missing BG1 like crazy!!! Can't wait to look! You totally rock!!!!

3:37pm on 12/4/25 by kingdomminded

7:34am on 12/5/25 by kfkennedy1

This morning I'm getting a "network request failed" message when trying to change already made LL times. Possibly BG1 is back down again? I can't test properly As I'm not in the park. Anybody there today trying to use BG1?

11:05am on 12/8/25 by RememberWhen

I'm getting the same problem. I assume it's down.

11:09am on 12/8/25 by NervousRex

Poops

11:27am on 12/8/25 by RememberWhen

I got that message a couple of times this morning trying to modify times for a friend but I kept trying and was eventually able to to modify everything for her using BG1. This was at about 9am.

11:43am on 12/8/25 by katienowaity

I got that all day yesterday and this morning for SDD only. Lol. The other LL options I could see fine.

11:46am on 12/8/25 by Jennyhirsch

Sorry, all. The temporary solution at the moment is just to reload the page on your browser (and run the bookmarklet again, if you installed it that way) until it works. You might have to do it multiple times. I won't be able to fix it till Thursday.

12:18pm on 12/8/25 by joelbruick

I asked about the network issue. @Joel relied: The temporary solution at the moment is just to reload the page on your browser (and run the bookmarklet again, if you installed it that way) until it works. You might have to do it multiple times.

12:19pm on 12/8/25 by PrincipalTinker

Ha! Joel you are on vacation and still faster than me!

12:20pm on 12/8/25 by PrincipalTinker

The page where I got the network error was on the "change" page. But I would try repeatedly to get it to open, because the LL page still appeared to be working, and eventually after refreshing a few times each time, the change page would work again.

1:20pm on 12/8/25 by katienowaity

Looks like that isn't even helping now. Sorry again.

2:23pm on 12/8/25 by joelbruick

@joel you do so much for us, just enjoy the rest of your trip and hopefully it's something you can fix later.

I agree, thank you @Joel! Today was my LLMP booking day and I was able to change a few of the times in BG1 before getting the network error. Not sure if it's random, but sharing here in case it's helpful. Very grateful for the changes I was able to make

7:54am by KangaLilo4

I bet Disney reset their detection overnight and if they then see similar within a set period they block them so Joel might need to add enough fake sensor data profiles that it doesn't trigger a block on them.

8:03am by stustaff

I tried another device, rebooting my phone, and clearing browser data with no luck. So it's linked to individual MDE accounts?

55 min ago by KangaLilo4

Need some suggestions for Disney dining we haven't tried before. Our reservation window opens next week. No character meals unless the food is fantastic. I have some ideas for Disney springs, but need some in park dining ideas. Mom, dad, 3 teens.

9:34pm on 12/8/25 by Kracinda

Bumping for ideas.

7:34am by utang44

What have you tried before?

7:37am by missWishes

Hi friends! I am looking to book a dvc split stay at WL (BC) & BW for next year the first week of December/ the week after Thanksgiving. How hard is it to get availability? We usually use David's. I can try to book at 11 months, correct?

8:43pm on 12/7/25 by minniemom7

collapse thread

WL DVC can be challenging the 1st week of December.

8:57pm on 12/7/25 by PrincipalTinker

I tried at 11 months to rent for December and only could get SSR for my dates

9:07pm on 12/7/25 by molly99

First week of Dec can be tough to book bec it's relatively cheap points wise and lots of owners use their points that week. Definitely try at 11 months but be flexible where you stay.

9:34pm on 12/7/25 by evamarie320

Can you do a 1-bedroom? That will make it a lot easier.

6:37am on 12/8/25 by melcort10

BW goes quick! We've tried a couple times for December with no luck.

7:18am on 12/8/25 by BlastThatPeterPan

I agree a 1 bedroom at BWV will be easier to book. I own at both CCV and BWV and studios are hard.

7:43am on 12/8/25 by PrincipalTinker

Thanks all! Sounds like I have a challenge ahead. I should have mentioned- I actually need 2, 2 bedrooms. Taking while extended family for MVMC.

12:34pm on 12/8/25 by minniemom7

But the 2, 2 bedrooms is just for Boulder creek. A smaller group will come in early and was hoping for BW or BC.

12:35pm on 12/8/25 by minniemom7

So it's Boulder Ridge or Copper Creek. A dedicated 2 bedroom might be easier. I don't know if Copper Creek has dedicated though.

2:28pm on 12/8/25 by melcort10

I don't think CC 2 bedrooms in December are any easier to book since you need a 2 bedroom to sleep more than 4.

2:43pm on 12/8/25 by PrincipalTinker

So @minniemom, I think you should submit your request in the next week and make as long of a list as possible of 1st, 2nd, 3rd+ choices. Each room type at each resort would be a line item. So 1st choice dedicated 2b at BRV, 2nd choice lock off, etc.

3:23pm on 12/8/25 by melcort10

Thanks all! @melcourt- I have always waited until exactly 11 months to submit my David's request- I can do it early and they will hold ot till the 11 month mark?

8:40pm on 12/8/25 by minniemom7

...view 12 more comments

Yes I would absolutely submit before 11 months because you are going to need an owner ready to submit on exactly the 11 month day.

9:43pm on 12/8/25 by melcort10

Also, 2 2-bedrooms is a lot of points so the agency will have to find an owner with a lot of points which is also harder. You want them to start shopping your request asap.

6:38am by melcort10

David's will confirm you are requesting early but they do allow it. I put in an early Aulani request for DS's honeymoon.

7:28am by PrincipalTinker

Well. I just looked it up. It says 6:00 AM Pacific time. Guess that is the issue. Thanks
