I’m not sure what the reservation system does I am AP holder so I never have problem getting a reservation. But I was at Disneyword over Christmas and again end of Feb Both times the parks were packed I thought the reservation system was to be used for crowd control serms to me just as crowded as pre covid but what do I know

I was there week between Christmas and new year’s. Many trailers of all types were parked in overflow

I’ve had premium pass for years. I kept them during COVID. They gave me an extra month. So mine expire 1/28 now. No they they tell me I can purchase same ap’s but for about 400.00 more for each one. Wow guess that’s my thanks for being loyal

Just checked this morning you can get tent, full hookup and preferred site. From 12/16 till 1/1

I first camped at the fort back in the early nineties. Tent camped but never had a problem with reservations. I even tent camped on premium site.

I think this all changed when the fort stopped doing their own reservations

Why do they let her book groups. They have never had any problem filling up in the holiday season

Just wondering out loud. Since Disney doesn’t seem to like us much anylonger im sure Chapek had thought of bulldozing the fort more than once. He could build several resorts where the fort is

Dang you have 12k posts. I was one of the originals here and I have nowhere that many

Can’t believe it. Just booked 14th through the 1st. It full hook up go figure

A certain TA is booking for Christmas 23. That’s 3 years in advance. How the heck can average folks ever get a site a Christmas again. I love the fort at Christmas but I’m not even going to try anymore. This one TA seems to have all the inside info and sites. Don’t think Walt would like this much

For me it’s just too hard to fight for reservations. A certain TA grabs all the good reservations. I remember when you could always get Christmas reservations. You had to be creative but you would always get them. I understand 250 a night during Christmas but the are changing 200 a night Labor Day. That’s nuts I was there Easter week and paid 250 per night. i still have premium AP. No black out dates. Haven’t had any problem getting reservations but the lines are long and the parks are packed. Not sure if I will renew next year. There are no perks for pass holders anylong

Agreed she isn’t nice and has her favorites

It’s not because of covid at the Fort. I can see the state cg’s filling up as they are reality inexpensive. At the Fort the site are more than 100.00 year round. also yesterday I booked Memorial Day. 4th of July and Labor Day its only Christmas and if you don’t o through a travel agent you are out of luck

Don’t mean to offend anyone. It’s just that certain travel agents gobble up all the sites. I’ve been told they get availability before the window opens to normal folks. I just like the way it was done in the past. And it didn’t start this year either

Am I the only one who misses the old way we made reservations at the fort? I can remember getting reservations for Christmas most anytime during the year. Yes you had to be creative but you could get a site. Now they give all the sites to travel agents and they are gone in one day. I just liked the old way where I controlled my reservations. sorry to ramble just my 2 cents

It has gotten expensive but I still prefer the fort to a hotel. I make about 4 trips to fort each year and don’t plan to stop until I get too old to camp I camp at country thunder and it’s 1500 for 3 nights including 2 tickets

I made reservations for this Christmas online last year. I had to do 12/3-01/01 to get a site. When I modified this year (over the phone) I told cast member I wanted through New Years. (Check out New Years Day). He said no problem all set. A few months later I looked at my reservation and it had me checking out on the 31st. I called and they said sorry nothing we can do. I have added a day when I was at the fort before during Christmas but it wasn’t New Year’s Eve. Anyone ever have any luck adding New Year’s Eve after you check in? i had to stay in cabin last year as I couldn

I was there but didn't see Donnie anywhere

When did they do the 2100 loop looks to me they are expanding some

I just said the heck with it. I booked a cabin 12/27-1/2. When I called to shorten the time to 4 days I was told it was not available. The lady on the phone said wow that doesn't sound right. She then put me on hold and called the fort and got it done. When she came back on the phone to tell me it was taken care of. She said she didn't understand how they do reservations at the fort. Doesn't make any sense to her and she works there. Now I just have to take out a second mortgage to pay for the cabin for a few nights. Lol

I haven't been to the fort during Christmas since 2010. I finally decided to go back this year. I tried to get reservations in Jan but found out they now let you reserve 18mths in advance. I did get get 18 so I guess I won't go this year after all. Back in the old days I could always get Christmas even during the year but this year seems there is nothing available. I'm sure there are sites but Disney just doesn't open them all at once.. Anyway just wanted to say hi to everyone. Don't recognize many of the names anymore.

how can i get in touch with Judy? Dan

Looks like the Fort weather will be much better by friday. Then sat the heat index will be a cool 102. Hope you get to stay through the weekend. Dan

Its diesel. miles don't matter
