What a cheesy give away-- 4 nights in a 2 bedroom with passes for up to 8 people-- but if the winner doesn't live more than 250 miles away they won't include air fare....

What a cheesy give away--- 4 nights at Copper Creek in a 2 bedroom for up to 8 people plus passes---- but if the winner lives less than 250 miles away you don't get air fare..... cuz that's the only part that costs them money..... what if I want to invite people from up north?

I think thats how they do most of their giveaways.

That’s how almost all giveaways, not just Disney, that involve airfare/ground transportation are handled.

On the contrary, I thought it was rather nice! They don’t normally do a giveaway for that amount of people, and in a 2 bedroom villa no less!

At least you can enter...we Canadians are out of luck this time and can't enter. So, you enter and give me the prize if you win, okay?

You are reading it wrong. If you live within 250 miles of Orlando, it doesn't include airfare. If you live outside 250 miles. It does. So Miami you would have to drive, but Atlanta they would provide airfare.

Edit: I did the entry - you have to watch 5 videos for 5 entries, but each one is pretty short. Unfortunately they all advertise the same thing.

I think they should only give the position to him if he can defeat the Kobayashi Maru?

I’ve listened to the soundtrack a couple times as well. Part of me likes the original songs for the show more than the songs from the movie. The ballads are especially wonderful in this show...I’ll probably see it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if tickets are as expensive as Hamilton.

Just my two cents, but I really doubt it. Hamilton is a phenomenon -- I can't imagine there being as wide an audience wiling to pay those tickets prices for Frozen. The touring cast of Hamilton will be in D.C. this summer, and most of the remaining tickets are $625 a piece. If you're lucky its looks like you can find the occasional seats at $350. I can get tickets now for Frozen front row on Broadway for far less.

I was at DHS today and I rode Toy Story Mania three times with minimal wait (less than 10 minutes!): all three tracks were in operation and the FastPass+ line was open.

I agree that Hamilton is a phenomenon. However, in the Disney community, we all know how much of a phenomenon Frozen was and still continues to be with young children around the world. Disney knows that parents and Disney fans will spend the money just to see a Disney production. My tickets to see Lion King this weekend were still insanely expensive and the show has been running for 20 years. I'm not saying Frozen will run for 20 years, but Disney seems to be pushing this musical more than they did for Newsies and Aladdin. Aladdin's tour wasn't announced for at least a year after the show opened to my knowledge. Same goes for Newsies. Frozen has been open for less than two months, and Disney already releases their announcement about the tour. Frozen might not be as popular as Hamilton, but it is a lot more popular right now among Disney fans. I just haven't seen this much excitement surrounding a Disney Broadway Musical in a long time (Lion King), so I just figured I would compare it to Hamilton.

Right now, front row for Frozen on Broadway is more than $350. I agree it's not as high as $625, but not sure what price point you were thinking of with "I can get tickets now for Frozen front row on Broadway for far less."

Actually you are reading my post wrong.

Even though I accidentally wrote it twice, it was right both times.....

Then use their address.

You have to use email to enter, and they pretty much have my address (and everyone else's who has a disney account's address ).... and I don't really know who would be coming... and I think I just wanted to complain....

But really, 4 nights at a dvc room costs nothing-- maybe MF of 1000? but in breakage nothing...And they give out some free passes. I bet they restrict time of year also.

Ok-- but DW and I get the master bedroom.....
