So weird. I'm an AP holder and a DVC blue card holder and didn't get e-mails for either of these. Pretty frustrating.

Do you have a "qualifying Disney resort reservation" under your membership that overlaps 6/12 or 6/19? Blue card holders w/ reservations during those dates are the ones who received emails to register for the DVC event so that may be why no email. For the AP previews, you have to have an MK park reservation for one of those days to attempt the VQ at 7am or any other park (and hope park-hopping to MK is open) for the 1pm VQ. No event registration needed for AP previews. Info on the AP previews is posted on the WDW AP experiences, perks & discounts page ( AP Experiences, Perks & Discounts). We don't have APs so I'm not sure what email notifications may or should have gone out.  |

You don’t need an email to register either. Which is why I posted the link.
The preview page no was only announced on Tuesday, after the cut off date for the reservation.

Has anybody mentioned cast previews?
I think a castmember will be allowed one friend to join but I’m not aware of their sign up dates , etc.
I guess I am happy for everybody that gets lucky .
I just hope the bloggers did not have an unfair advantage with those specific dates that define eligibility.
Will a daily Park Pass allow more than one entry over all if they get into the VQ everyday?
I’m not having any luck with DVC or AP . But I did get to wait in a Q for an hour for a Park Pass … and get kicked out with 6 minutes left .
So that was fun.
I guess some people will have D23 and AP and DVC for better odds . And maybe know a castmember too!
That was nice to post the link for 11:00 a.m. on Thursday for DVC members.

Club 33 has their own preview also.

Yay! Our first member event registration and we have our slot for the 12th.  Here's hoping things go well that day (no thunderstorms during the time, ride doesn't go down, etc.). This is a great additional treat for the Aussie part of our crew who won't make it to WDW again for a long time (if ever). DS23, who's as big a Disney parks fan as a Disney parks-loving mom could wish for, is very excited. Oh yeah, DH is excited too as is DS19 though no one would ever be able to tell given how stone-faced he is (you can never read what that kid is thinking).  Really looking forward to seeing the new animatronics in action. |

Club 33 has their own preview also.
WDWMagic lists: - Cast member previews on 6/2 for MK cast members only and other cast members 6/3-6/7 and 6/23-6/26.
- Media previews on 6/10 and 6/11.
- Club 33 previews on the 12th also (I'm guessing before and after the DVC event, Tom?)
D23 Gold Member paid event is 6/22 per their site.
Here's hoping there aren't too many DVC bloggers on DVC preview days but I expect there will likely a sea of phones out non-stop (allowed or not). I don't even plan to take ride pictures (if they're allowed) but may snap some queue ones if something stands out or I can get our crew to cooperate for a group shot because I'd rather focus on just enjoying the ride itself. After all, we'll be back to enjoy it over and over and will hopefully have a ride pic to cherish.  |

So weird. I'm an AP holder and a DVC blue card holder and didn't get e-mails for either of these. Pretty frustrating. I'm frustrated by this process too. They announced the AP previews in the morning and passes were gone before I even got off work. It's extra frustrating because I have a trip already planned during that time. It still seems extra crappy that I have to make a reservation for a park even when I'm staying on property. I'll keep checking to see if any MK reservations appear, otherwise I'm stuck with 1:00, which I imagine will be way worse. Yay! Our first member event registration and we have our slot for the 12th.
