Y'all know about the changes to the ressies and fees for cancellations right? I'm not sure if any of the restaurants you are looking at have the cancellation fees associated with them, but you might want to double-check. You wouldn't want to have to pay out money unnecessarily!
If I'm not mistaken, every restaurant has it now and it is a $10 fee per guest. That could be over $100 depending on how many they book for. That could be more than $400 if people don't start telling the Couple what their best option is before the last 24 hours before the reservations... :shock:
We are all a little weird
And life's a little weird,
And when we find someone whose
Weirdness is compatible with ours,
We join up with them and fall in
Mutual weirdness and call it Love.”

We just found out about that cx policy last night when we made ADR's at the Flying Fish. I can understand that though b/c you have people making a ton of reservations, change their minds and then don't show. That could tie things up for people that wanted to get in. We're guilty, there have been a few that we did not cx.

I texted/e-mailed with the Mouse Couple last night, so we're set! :D Can't believe how close we are to going back...where did the time go?!?!?! Looking forward to meeting those of you that are going, we will miss those of you that cannot be there. :(

Well, I don't think it is at all the restaurants quite yet. The kicker is you have to cancel a full day ahead. The good thing is there are several ways to cancel. This is what I found as far as that goes:
you can cancel at any table-service restaurant podium; any resort front desk or concierge; guest relations at any theme park; online at DisneyWorld.com/Dining or by calling 407-WDW-DINE.
Here are the 19 restaurants I found that are listed as having the cancellation policy. Pretty much, it sounds like if you have to give a credit card to hold your ressie, that indicates it has the cancellation fee policy in place.

These restaurants charge $10/person: 1900 Park Fare, Akershus Royal Banquet Hall, Artist Point, California Grill, Cape May Café, Chef Mickey’s, Cítricos, The Crystal Palace, Flying Fish Café, The Garden Grill, Hollywood & Vine, Jiko – The Cooking Place, Le Cellier Steakhouse, Narcoossee’s, O’hana, Tusker House Restaurant, The Hollywood Brown Derby, Yachtsman Steakhouse

$25/person: Victoria & Albert’s

Full amount! Cinderella’s Royal Table, Disney’s Spirit of Aloha Dinner Show, Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue, Mickey’s Backyard BBQ

For now I think it's only restaurants you have to reserve with a credit card that have the policy.... but I think it should be implemented all over property. You'd see why if you worked the restaurants...

One more week people!!! This is getting more and more exciting with every minute!!

Okay, it's getting down to the wire... So far, the only thing we have set in stone based on the responses we've gotten is that the big meetup will be on the Poly Beach to watch Wishes with RSDW's. By the way, we decided that the first round of DW's is on us for everyone, regardless of whether you want the rum or not! It's our way of saying "sorry" for the screw-up with the dinner. As for the other meals, so far the only one we're sure that we should keep based on the responses is the 1:050 p.m. lunch at Biergarten on Saturday the 7th. We only have one more day after this to check in here and update before we leave, so hopefully we'll get some more feedback before then. Thanks to all who've responded so far!

Ok let the mayhem begin!!!! We have arrived and arrived in style. The tranfer company picked us up in a limo! What a surprise! :) We can't wait to get to the parks. I am especially looking forward to Star Tours. It was closed last year and opened just after we left. See you all soon!!!

P.S. we will post some additional meetup Info late tonight.

already jealous you're there!!!! Can't wait to meet everyone!!! I may end up starting the day at Epcot since there are EMH at DHS and I am not on property. If lunch is at 1, then i figured we'd not have much time for things at the studios before leaving for Epcot, so might as well just start there and join the day at lunch!

Wow ~ that snuck up quickly (although I am sure you don't feel that way!)
Good luck to everyone and safe travels! How I wish we could be there, but we'll be cheering you on from here in the frozen tundra!! :D

I'm sure the mousecouple (and whoever else is already there) is freezing their mouse ears off this morning! I saw on the weather channel that it was in the 20's all across Florida this morning! :shock:
But it looks to be a fabulous weekend in the mid to upper 70's all weekend long!!!! :D

All Ears indicated that many outdoor activities would be cancelled yesterday and today because of the forecast temperatures, that the lifeguards would not be on duty, and the slides would be closed. Blizzard Beach (or was it Typhoon Lagoon) is closed. BRRRR.
