Wonderful!!! My family loves POR! And, no...I don't think Disney cares at all that we freaks are on our computers at 5:45 waiting with baited breathe.

Hope it stops crashing soon for you.

Alayne those are fabulous ADRs , I was wondering when the desserts party reservations would open up I believe it's a 60 day before window but I am unsure.

I am still trying for BOG and still trying to convince my hubby on Victoria and Alberts he is a meat and potatoes only type of eater....extremely picky.

We are staying at OKW too. Love that resort!

Hi Holly- I called and booked it for November 19th this morning around 8am, so it's definitely available for your dates.

The food is wonderful. Down home, simple, but amazingly delicious since its all grown there, very flavorful American. Kind of like the benefits of eating a holiday meal without you having to cook!

One of my favorite features is that you are served, family style. So the food is unlimited like a buffet but you don't have to get up and get it yourself, you just ask your server for more of the stuff you want more of. I find that with buffets I sometimes get back to the table and have missed a character I was looking forward to taking pictures with. Or feel that I have to rush to get a plate from the buffet so I don't miss a moment!

The character interaction is decent, not fantastic. In my trip report I posted a bunch of pictures ... we've had more characters stay longer and interact more with my DS at Goofy's Kitchen in DLR. However, the time they did spend with him was priceless ... there's a video in there of him asking several of the characters to dance Gundam style, and they did! (Link to TR with video and pix in my signature.)

Its going to be our one character meal this trip, since DS begged to go again.

Thank you so much for your input. I booked it because of what you wrote and I am really looking forward to eating there (for the kids too ) . Do you know if the floor spins on both levels or just the bottom?

So was up shortly after 3 am and checked my flights again and much to my surprise my return flight dropped again. I guess I should have waited to buy, so I banked another $32 in credits $16 ea tix, now I have $82 towards my next trip!

I had no idea jet blue does this. do you just call up and ask them for the difference?

Jrabbit Yes if the price drops just call and they will credit your Travel Bank, You have 1 Year from the date the credit is issued to use it

Holly If you haven't already done so I would call and book it yourself. I used a TA this trip for the first time in years but made all my own ADRs and also reserved a Cabana myself.

Both floors spin. Its pretty slow, though, just kind of interesting watching the scenery change as the meal progresses ... kind of reminds me of being on the cruise ship as you're watching the port slowly drift away. The levels don't spin separately, its just one big donut circling the kitchen. I often wonder how the servers find you again, but they always manage ...

Just make sure you have the kids prepped before the characters to come around of what they would like the characters to do/what they would like to ask the characters, as with any character meal, and they'll have a blast.

Your quite welcome. Glad you banked some $ for another trip. Keep watching maybe it will drop more. We are going 11/3-11/8. I am already thinking about maybe a March or Oct trip in 2014 if there is a good BB while we are there in Nov.

Woo hoo! Just finally booked my Thanksgiving dinner ADR after an hour and a half!! Woke up at 5:45 to find that I couldn't book it online... Called at 7:00 and waited a half hour on hold, but finally got it! I feel so relieved! We will be at Cape May Cafe for Turkey Day - anyone else?

Most of your trip falls during "jersey week" so the likelyhood of any dscounts is slim for the majority of your dates.
