15 month, but yeah. This trip will be all UOR except for one MNSSHP. My sisters may be going to Disney again in early December, so if they do, Jen and I will do a split WDW/UOR trip then. Then another UOR trip sometime after Epic opens.

Awesome!! I checked rates for early-mid September. There are a lot of $80 - $85 Endless Summer room for anyone interested!
Iām doing Aventura 9/6 - 9/14 for $127 / night. IME - Iāve been seeing the best rates about 120 - 150 days out. When I first booked the room I got it for $140. I just kept checking. However, around less than the 100 day mark the rates tend to go up and stay that way

Thatās good to know! I noticed from looking at the nightly breakdown for my reservation that Fri/Sat were only about a 25% discount compared to 40% for the rest of the nights and was wondering if those might change at all. Iāll keep checking!
IME - If you can check in on a Tuesday/Wednesday and check-out on a Saturday you get the best ratesā¦
I try to plan as many trips as I can & keep the budget around $1000 total. I can, typically, plan out a 4 night stay at that budget. Itās tight though! I can make it work at $1200.
Then if Iām able Iāll sneak away. Coincidentally, I had one of those trips planned for today - Sat.
I like to track TP accuracy as well!

I still think Iām going to have to suck it up and do Labor Day weekend, with all the HHN crowds that involves. I just donāt see any other time when I can take a 4 -day weekend, with all my other plans in Q3 & 4. I supposed I could do a quicker trip, with just one night with RIP again like I did last year.

Yupā¦ I think Cabana Bay is a little less the next weekend, and RIP is a few buck cheaper. Iāll have to see how flights are.

I have not kept up with the news (crazy few weeks for me personally), and Iām buttoning up my UOR plans for Memorial Day weekend. I know weāre missing a lot of the ānewā attractions by a few weeks (e.g., Dreamworks, nighttime show, etc.), but Iām wondering if thereās been any word on Pteranodon Flyers.

I remember talk on the boards in the last few months (?) asking if the secret songs still worked on Rip Rocket. Anyone have intel on that?
Ultimately one way to find out in about a week!
