I splurged on deluxe for August with the hope that there will be deluxe evening hours at MK on our Wednesday. Now the four month wait to find out if my gamble was correct. sigh.

I'm curious to see how extended hours look like for our trip too! I am looking forward to Epcot hours also, will be nice with Food and Wine happening so I can eat all the things and still have evening extra time for rides

Hi! Jumping on the August train. It will be my DH's first extended WDW trip ever, and my third for 2022 alone haha. We're new to DVC (closed resale AKV, December 2021), and we are currently trying to decide between two late-August reservations I have booked: BCV-studio and AKV-Jambo-value 1BR. I am leaning towards BC because I know it's so hard to get without walking a reservation, and I may never get the chance to stay there again, but it could be nice to have some extra space. Still TBD! I am very much looking forward to lower crowds, but after the massive crowds on my January trip I'm not sure we'll get back to the seasonal normals for at least another year or so. Great to be here!!

Hi! We added two days at Poly to our trip, so we’ll be at Wilderness Lodge August 15-20 and the Poly August 20-22!

Man, seeing these crazy high winter crowds is making me nervous for August. I hope things even out a bit.

Me too! But last year the high crowds persisted through July, and I mentally prepared for the worst, and by mid August it was fine.

Just pushed the play button for August 21st - 28th - two rooms at POP! Bring on the heat and humidity!

We're booked for 21-30 Aug at CBR. Then three days at Universal. This was originally an Aug 2020 trip. Then Aug 2021. Hoping the third time is the charm!!

Booked Poly Villas from 8/25 -9/3. Rescheduled for DD turning 21 and DD sweet 16 in 2020. Now I am 50, so celebrating all 3. Starting with a few days in Universal before 8/25.

Sorry, I forgot to add where we are staying for our second half of our trip.
8/28-8/31 BLT
8/31-9/6 BWV

Hope I can join you all! We will be staying at Old Key West from Aug 16-23. We've been a few times in August so we know what we're getting into with the heat.

We are joining the August travelers. We will be at Wyndham Bonnet Creek from 8/25-8/28 and then at BCV from 8/28-9/4. Most of our trips have been in the summer but this will be our first trip with Genie+. We like riding our favorite attractions multiple times so I am not sure if we will like not having FP+.

Booked Poly Villas from 8/25 -9/3. Rescheduled for DD turning 21 and DD sweet 16 in 2020. Now I am 50, so celebrating all 3. Starting with a few days in Universal before 8/25.

We are also starting at Universal from 8/22-8/25. Maybe we will run into each other.

Due to work obligations, we are no longer traveling in August. Please remove me from the list. Thank you. I wish everyone a wonderful trip!

When are people booking park reservations? We bought our tickets yesterday, but I'm not sure yet which parks we want to do which days (we don't have hoppers - we are planning pool/shopping days and hitting the parks later afternoon). I'm thinking mid/late Aug probably won't reach reservation capacity so I'm going to wait a bit until I have a more solid plan I think. I'm also wondering if the Halloween party will come back and change my plans.

I probably won't book parks for a few months. I haven't even bought my tickets yet. I'm not worried about it filling up.
