    EPCOT monorail watch

    Ye old site, said the EPCOT monorail was coming back soon. Then said, just kidding. Does anyone have some news on this?

    3 Years, and This Is What Has Changed

    Greetings fellow WDWMagicians. I'm wondering if you'd indulge me and add to what has changed at WDW Parks from early May 2016 (my last visit) to early May 2019 (my next visit). You know, things I can point out to the kids and in-laws and say 'this is new/different/missing!' I started a list...

    FP+ vs ADR, which is more annoying/valuable?

    It's 6:59am. The kids are asleep, you are at the kitchen table. Laptop open. Your eyes are fixed on the clocked. There's a calm steadiness in the air. TICK! 7! A banjo begins to play inside your head as you hit refresh and start filtering through rides or restaurants - depending on how far...

    Fix ESPN

    I wanted to get this Forums thoughts on the state of ESPN. As sited many times, they are doing miserably and are becoming an anchor around TWDC and thus our beloved WDW. Personally, I find most ESPN programming unwatchable and unlistenable these days. This coming from a sports fan. They've...

    Why DVC? vs Rent Points vs other

    For my last trip in May I rented DVC points for a split stay at GFV and BLT. I believe I got a very good deal compared to booking directly through Disney, proven by the example below. We've gone the last three years and would like to make it an annual tradition. So I started thinking if...

    Crystal Palace Experience / Speed

    Quick question, I appreciate your feedback. My family (traveling with 7, including 2 young kids) have a 2:05 ADR at Crystal Palace the last day of our trip. After lunch, we'd walk back to our rental car parked at BLT, I'd like to make it to the car by around 3:20 to give enough time to gas up...

    In Room Celebrations?!

    I've never heard of an official "In Room Celebration" but stumbled upon this while reviewing my resort's amenities. For "just" $400, you can have a surprise pirate adventure, thanks to Captain Jack himself. While in theory, this sounds awesome for my pirate loving kids, in practice...

    Split Stay: moving day

    I see @CaptainAmerica started a Split Stay thread, so not to hijack, I also have a question about split stays. I'm staying 3 nights at GF Villas, and then 3 at BLT. Can I work with the resorts (presumably Bell Services) to help transfer our luggage and food items? Perhaps I simply pack-up and...

    Do Cast Members Know???

    I've been curious just how much Cast Members actually "know" about "insider information"/rumors. Does Disney seed info or send memo's to CM in hopes they leak to guests what they want? Or are they actually in legit meetings getting the real scoop (if so, are they required to sign...

    Rider Switch & FP+, huh?

    Sorry if this has been explained already (tried a search, couldn't find). I've read a mix of how Rider Switch works in conjunction with a FP+. I'm not looking to beat the system.....simply work with it. I'm the head planner for my party: 5 adults, 1 toddler (tall, will ride), 1 baby. If we...

    May '16 Not Looking So Good?

    So, here's what I'm looking at for my May 4-10 trip: BTMRR closed for refurb Frozen not opened (right?) Tiffin's AK restaurant not opened (right?) River or Lights not ready (right?) The last 3 are so close to completion, any news if one/two/three of them will be open while I'm there? At least...

    Countdown Ideas with Kids

    I'm going in early May. We've told our 2 and 4 year old as part of their Christmas gift - a risky move considering some of "are we there yet" feedback others I read get. But the cat (mouse) is out of the bag and I'm wondering if you have any creative/fun/educational ways to help countdown the...

    Would You Rather: Thunder vs Frozen

    I'm going in early May, and the rumors are everywhere about the BTM closure/refurb and the possible delayed opening of Frozen during this time frame. So, WOULD YOU RATHER: ride the iconic Big Thunder Mountain before the big refurb (that my kids will love), or be one of the first to ride a much...

    Royal Banquet Hall: Family Style or Buffet

    I believe back in August Royal Banquet Hall closed the cold buffet in place of a limited (in terms of food options) table service family-style starter/platter. Any one know if this test is still on or if they went back to the buffet followed by the entrees?
