Disney Files Winter Edition

[carlbarry]

I haven't received the Winter edition. Has it gone out yet? The last one I received was Fall.
Thanks.

Haven't gotten mine yet.

My gosh, you've read my mind. I was just thinking we got skipped on the winter edition.

The digital version is still the fall version so maybe they’re just a bit behind?

That would seem to be the situation. But it is very late.

Officially Spring, but the Winter Disney Files doesn't exist! I wonder if they decided to just stop publishing it. I also have a Wyndham timeshare, and they and RCI stopped publishing their magazines years ago.

My kids would be so disappointed if that were the case. They really look forward to getting it in the mail.

I thought mine was lost in the mail. Hope they didn't decide to cancel future publications!

I just called Disney. The CM had to "reach out to" her "team."
The answer is that there was an "adjustment" to the printing schedule, and only the Winter edition was affected; nobody got it. The regular schedule will resume with the Spring edition.

Thank you for the update @carlbarry I, too, thought mine had been lost in the mail.

100% speculative, but this smells like a case where Disney went to press with the issue, and later discovered there was something grossly incorrect about it which prevented mailing. Maybe something about the BWV refurbishment. Maybe something about the cabins. Maybe an announcement of some perk or benefit or member lounge or Moonlight Magic which was abruptly altered. DVC has actually been pretty good about mailing the magazines to coincide with big sales launches and other events. May have gotten burned this time.

Wasn't there some communication in the last few months that talked about changes to publications? Going digital, or changing the frequency, or something like that, at DVC's discretion? Or am I thinking of something regarding D23?

Interesting. I wonder when the Spring edition will arrive, since we're already technically into Spring.

All I was told was that the Spring edition would arrive as per the "regular" schedule.
