"Official" 2018 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - A Spooktacular Celebration!

I think it's ok as long as it's not touching the ground.

Edit: From WDW's website: "Costumes may not reach or drag on the ground. (e.g.,full-length Princess dresses)" So, it doesn't have to be hemmed all the way to mid-calf--just so that it's off the ground.

Ok Thanks. So will need to make sure you can see her shoes...
 
I am definitely not canceling the dessert party!! Winston from Guest Services just called to say since I booked before 6/18 they'd still honor my reserved parade viewing, even though it's not intended to be part of the party this year. I'm so glad! YAY for having a spot on my solo trip with my 7 year old!!!!

I really hope they give everyone this and that its not just a Guest Service person stating something that is not even possible. Congrats if you get it for sure.

He didn't explicitly state it, but it sounded like it'll be for everyone who booked before 6/18. He said I'd be hearing back about details when they figure out where the reserved spot will be, so I should look out for another phone call or email with that information.
 
We just bought our tickets for an August party! We've never done MNSSHP so we're all excited! We were already planning a trip to Florida so we decided to add on a long weekend at Disney for the party :) Also scored one of those 'agency exclusive' deals for our resort so we got a total steal there as well! FP day is coming up so I'll be sure to post how it goes as we will only have party tickets.

Whoa! That's a big development. I know a couple of us have had calls back on this in the last few days that the whole issue with the parade viewing was going to the leadership team for review. My contact was estimating about a week to hear back from her, so mid next week. It'll be very interesting to see if the feedback is what you go from Guest Services, which if I'm being honest makes no sense to me. If they can honour it for people who booked before 6/18, then they can just include it with the event, as originally advertised. And if they do go with this pre 6/18 bookings only (which I am), then I won't be holding my breath. Can you even imagine the confusion night of the party when some people will have parade viewing and some won't? Sounds like chaos to me.

And what about those who had it reserved for the parade but canceled, will they honor all? Big mess...

I have yet to receive a phone call in response to my email...

Yup me too. I am thinking those of us who cancelled are just SOL. I don't regret my decision at all because I am tired of being a Yo-Yo.

Agree. Am I too much of an optimist to hope that when they figure logistics out for us they add it back in for everyone?

I'll be optimistic with you. I think there are really only 2 outcomes here, they either figure a schedule that allows for parade viewing to be included or they don't. No way they do a hybrid type, some get it and some don't.

Well that is great news if they figure out a way to make it work, and kinda kicking myself for cancelling now. Though I agree, this becomes a logicistical nightmare if some have it and some don’t....unless they add it back for everyone? And the parade time will need to be adjusted from last year to accommodate this, too, unless they do something for the second parade??
 
I just got a call from Winston as well in response to my email. He said that because I had booked the Terrace dessert party before the website changed, Disney was going to honor the parade viewing so we'll still have parade viewing included with our party!! He said he didn't have a timeline yet on details as far as time, location of parade viewing, etc., but he said when he finds out he'll call me. I'm very glad I didn't cancel after the site changed! I'm actually glad Disney is trying to make it right!

I am glad they are finally doing something different with Space Mountain. Although it still completely lacks what they do at Disneyland as I believe Ghost Galaxy is the best form of Space Mountain it is nice to see them doing stuff special for Disney World also. Can't wait to experience everything.

Admittedly I haven’t been on Ghost Galaxy, but how is it different than the announcement? (Other than the normal differences between WDW and DL Spaces). No one has been on it yet, so maybe it’ll be awesome. It also explicitly referenced seeing ghosts in the galaxy - so aren’t they aiming for the same thing? I was very excited because that was my understanding.

Thats great but I am hoping to hear the same message from someone who spoke to someone other than Winston as a double confirmation of this.

I believe that Space Mountain at Disney World does not have the projections that Disneyland has and even though they are talking about the music on the ride I doubt the music can be anything like Disneyland because the speakers are right next to your ears but I do believe it will still be awesome compared to the regular one. I don't even ride the it much at Disney World due to it just not being the same experience that I get at Disneyland plus I kind of like riding with someone next to me enjoying it. I feel kind of lonely on Space at Disney World lol

I may be a bit biased as I worked at Space during my college program at WDW. :) :) I sort of like that alone feeling on WDW. But agreed, hopefully the additions will be a fun and new twist on a classic!

So let the new wave of emails start, for those of us that booked, then canceled, and are now screwed! LOL

I still stand by my decision and see this becoming were they have to offer to all or no one. They will run into huge problems with complaints if both people pay the same price and don't get the same offerings.
