At what point do you give up?

The Disney Enchantment After party – yes there is. Any others to check?

Thank you! And: yay. All I have to do is somehow book it. Disney — take my money.

It’s after 1700 EST and they haven’t cut me off. Maybe it’s like rides. If you’re in line at park close, you still ride. I must be close now. It’s been 2h25m.

No, it just redirects to the UK site. There was the option to switch to the EU site but it rumbled me pretty quickly and sent me back to the UK site. I’ve tried multiple browsers on both MacOS and iOS and iPadOS.

It goes weird, too, once you get Stitch. If you try anything else at all on the site it just gives you a plaintext webpage that says you are not authorised to access the site.

The worst hold music is UOR. They have like a 3 minute loop with minions and other annoying stuff. I was on hold with them for over 90 min.

True story. I took my laptop with me to the Isle of Man in 2019 ahead of our Disney trip and used it to adjust some ADRs. For AT LEAST a year after no amount of deleting cookies could convince the website (via chrome) that I was not actually in the UK and there was no way to get back to the US page without using a totally different browser.

I’m not sure when it finally flipped back to normal.

(But also the last time I used an Uber I was in London, and I’m also still getting text messages for £10 off my next Uber eats. Technology gets confused easily, I guess🤷‍♀️)

Update

I got through in just under three hours. But the connection was HORRIBLE. Both of us endlessly asking the other to repeat themselves and me panicking that the call would get dropped.

Before we got to the paying part he had to read out interminable terms and conditions and all the while I’m thinking “I don’t care, just take my credit card details before we get cut off”.

Reading out my credit card number took forever because I kept having to start again. And then the same with him giving me the confirmation number.

Ugh.

Anyhoo, it’s booked and in my MDE.

So was the phone call longer than the event you were booking? :thinking:

Haha — yes. About two to three times longer.

I remember years ago waiting in line for the Jurrasic Park ride at Universal Hollywood. I waited so long I could have watched the entire movie.

Yes!

We waited like 3.5 hours for Velicoaster and didn’t get to ride :-(. How many Jurassic world movies is that? I’ve only seen the first one and it felt long.

Oh no! Did you ever get to ride it? Did they compensate you in any way?

Yes another day like a week later we rode it and it was amazing. I seem to remember them handing us a paper express pass which did me no good as I’d already paid for it. I don’t know if it had an expiration date though?

The regular Express Passes work on VelociCoaster? I’m surprised. Do they work on Hagrid, yet.

I’m staying at RP in part to get the free EPs. (The early entry is a bust. It’s USF only and then only Minions and Gringott’s. I’m not getting up early for that.)

No, it wasn’t good to ride VelociCoaster or I would have held on to it. Or Hagrid’s. It was good for any ride that had EP so to me not worth anything. Yes, I concur on your sleeping in issue. We were able to get early entry to IOA and we high-tailed it to VelociCoaster and waited 20 something minutes I believe (30something with lockers since I had to lock my phone up) and then ran to Hagrids where I think we waited similar maybe 45 min. We had EP like you as we stayed at RP too so then we did all the EP stuff after those two. If you want to ride those, I’d just come for normal entry for IOA and try to do them then.
