I went out to look to see if Summer/Fall 2018 dates have been posted for ABD and today I can not see any dates under rates and dates, that were there yesterday for any adventure.

Does this mean that they are prepping for Summer/Fall 2018? :-)
 
Noticed earlier today also. Hopefully thats exactly what it means. I assumed insiders would be given a heads up, but maybe not?
 
This makes me so excited! I believe that is what happened last year right when they were adding this year's adventures!
 


A pretty quiet rollout! Guess they wanted to sell as many cruise spots (on sale) as they could before announcing anything new. Well, I hope there is something new ...
ABD rep says May and Insiders will be able to book first...that's all I got

As much as I want to see their offerings for 2018, I will have to pay a 10% deposit for each of my bookings. With my final payment for S. Africa due this week I am glad I have a month before my credit card takes another hit lol.

If only they would give us a hint if there is a new trip for next year!

I agree on this one! This new 10% down and earlier final payment is making it harder to stack trips. We have three planned for this year and I had to make the final payment and book airfare for my next trip while I was actually on my last trip.
 
2017 dates are back up on the site -no mention of 2018 so assume May is still the target. Hopefully early May!
 
Well drat. I was really hoping they'd be coming out already. On the one hand we could have booked with another company for our hopeful dates for a long time now... on the other 15 months out (if they do release them in May) is a long time out. It sure doesn't feel like it though..! ^^;

If they had more dates for S Africa in 2017 (there are only 3 on the website right now) or it went out to Feb or March like some of the other ones I'd be less nervous.
 
I agree -I think the "typical" ABD user (and probably Disney user in general) is a planner so we would appreciate dates out well in advance, as they do with cruises. I understand they are working with hotels and other groups to set up ABD so assume that is why it takes longer, however.. Additionally, these are not the type of "discounted" trips one does without thought so the additional time to plan and save would be greatly appreciated!
