How much was the preview event? $99 including food and booze?

I'd probably pay that

Play havok with the itinerary though!

I can't moan as I knew what I was doing when I booked for May, I've been twice then and I've found the weather to be much better than when we've gone in Sept/Oct time with the parks still really quiet. The fact that we get to go 5 months earlier didn't hurt the argument either haha.

I'd just really gotten my hopes up (I'm like a small child when it comes to Orlando).

Yeah same here! It's not the end of the world, but I'll still be a bit gutted if it's not open for us!

I'm not surprised, we were there two weeks ago and the building work looked nowhere near finished. We all remarked on it and said they'd be lucky to finish on time.

Sad but not surprised. Think it's been poorly handled by Disney though as it's obviously been clear for a while that April 22nd was not going to happen

Having seen the work being done on this just yesterday, I'm not surprised by the delay.

I was expecting a couple of weeks delay, but it sounds like it's going to be a couple of months. Didn't they only announce the official opening time a short while ago? I wonder how they've managed to slip so much in so little time.
