Helppppppp Need Answer Today!

[shani1243]

Currently hubby and I 63 and 65, have booked a 6 day wdw trip at pop century, from feb 4-11, and then heading to wonder 4 day cruise.

we found out yesterday that space mtn would prob. be closed during that time, and it is one of hubbys favs.

We also looked into another site last night for a western 7 day cruise, for about the same price as the wdw and cruise we had booked.

however: at the reduced rate for the 7 day western cruise we could not be guaranteed where on 6 we would be. May be forward, mid, or aft.

The wonder 4 day cruise is also on 6 right near the elevator mid ship. Good for me, cause I can't walk far.


what to do, what to do? helppppppppppppp

btw. the reduced rate for the western 7 day ends today! We need to make a decision right away.

We have never cruised before.

thanks

I vote Disney. Even though a fav ride will be down, there will be lots up. Plus, probably some new things since the last time you were there!

Personally, I wouldn't make a vacation change over a rumour.

Walt Disney World Operations has yet to release any information indicating that Space Mountain will close for rehab anytime in the near future.

All rehabs released by Walt Disney World Operations can be found in the rehabs section of INTERCOT info Central.

Where did you read that Space mountain would be down? We are going just the week before and I hadn't seen anything about Space mtn being down - Just Splash mountain. I read several sights and didn't see anything..... Space is one of my favorites and would hate to have it down!

Thanks for the info

I read it on the DIS boards

... and if one would change vacation plans based on rumours, the most credible I've come across is that Space Mountain rehab isn't rumoured to start till June 2008.

Disney hasn't "officially" put up Space Mountain for being closed during that time.

Disney hasn't "officially" put up Space Mountain for being closed during that time.

Thanks - that's what I thought. Do they ever take 2 major rides (Splash - which they have already announced and space) down for refurb at the same time?

Rumors aside. If the only thing keeping you from booking the 7 day cruise is that you dont' know where you cabin might be then you shouldn't even consider that. Most ships have elevators in the front, aft and center. You should go to the cruiseline website and check out the ship itsef.

Yes, Rumor is that the Space Mnt Rehab will be approx 18 months. For that reason there will be times that two major rides will be down.

I wouldn't worry about spacemtn. Disney will make sure that all other major rides are up and running. I can't see them closing down splash and space mtn. They'll time it right.
