The Opening Night Dilemma
Even though the packages started taking reservations today, they are all sold out for July 17, the opening night. In fact, the online reservation system crashed because of the number of people using it. And, phones could not connect throughout the day because so many were calling in. That night will have a lot going to the eateries and the shows. However, earlier in the day the 18th had openings for reservations.
The way to go for opening night is to get a pass with regular park tickets and passes. Also, as packed as it may sound for the park overall, there are only a certain number of packages available at the restaurants. Regular seating at those food places is available. It doesn’t mean those eateries are packed out.
