Hey all. I've been reading-up here and in other areas about the best ways to use Genie+ Lightning Lanes. (Boy, what a headache...I'm really amazed at the time & difficulty it takes to make the best out of your Disney Park visit. So much for "Ease of Use"). The idea of "stacking" Genie+...

I think many have a belief that the Walt Disney company is one of still "good" companies out there. And certainly because so many have such fond memories & experiences associated with Disney & the parks. I know I do. And when I learn of something truly contradictory to this belief....it is...

Hi all, I've been watching the Park Hours updates on the Disney World site. So far in October 2021, it seems like the latest a park (Magic Kingdom) will be open for general ticket admission is 9:00 PM EST. Would anyone venture an educated guess as to whether the hours might increase for the...

Hi all. It could be that I'm "misremembering", but seem to vaguely remember some scenes from a ride at the Magic Kingdom. I guess it could have been the either the late 1970s or sometime int he 80s decade. This is what I remember: - I'm thinking the ride was in Tomorrowland, where Buzz's ride...

I purchased my tickets online from a reseller. One for me and one for a family member. They were sent to me electronically. I downloaded the Universal app for Android. I added one ticket by typing in the ticket number. Can I add the second ticket for my family member? Or do they have to...

Hi all. Looking for some Universal-expert help with a interesting question. Does anyone know of a way to purchase an Express Pass for Universal Orlando that will code as a Travel charge on a credit card? Undercovertourist doesn't sell Express Passes. I know you can purchase an Express Pass at...

So, Star Wars land aka Galaxy's Edge has been getting criticism for being somewhat "meh", lacking a music soundtrack, lacking a recognized SW environment, etc. Harry Potter's areas at Universal are terrific. But the movies profiled the areas pretty well, Hogwarts and Diagon Alley. Pandora is...

The rides that I connected with as a child and that keep me going back to Disney are the more "realistic" rides/attractions in the park. For example, the Haunted Mansion, Space Mountain, The Jungle Cruise, Pirates of the Caribbean, Big Thunder Mountain, Carousel of Progress, Swiss Family Tree...

Over the years I've read bits & pieces here on the board that Disney's real purpose for Fastpass+ isn't so guests can get on a ride faster than other guests. I've searched the forum and can't find a good explanation of the real purpose of Fastpass+ from Disney's perspective. I seem to remember...

The Oogie Boogie Bash is a separate ticked event in September and October. Do guests of the park who don't have Oogie Boogie tickets have to leave the park when the Oogie Boogie Bash event starts? Will these "other" guests not be able to get on rides after the event starts?

Hi all. I'm thinking of visiting Disneyland for the first time and I'd love to experience the Haunted Mansion first without the overlay. When does the ride stop running as the normal Haunted Mansion? And when is the Nightmare Before Christmas overlay added? Hopefully the dates for these are...

Let's say I had one goal, and one goal alone...attend a Disney theme park with the fewest guests...which park is it? Japan? Paris? Shanghai? Etc. And what time of the year would be the best to experience these lovely "sparse" crowds?

Sure, Youtube is great for finding a lot of good Disney park music. But...what websites are dedicated to it? Are there sites that collect the more obscure music? (and I'm not looking for streaming radio stations like Sorcerer's Radio, which is great in it's own right...but you can't find...

I spent a good amount of time at Pandora last week. And couldn't wait to get back and post this question here, as it was driving me nuts. I even asked a CM in Pandora, but she kept to her in-character answer (so no answer). I love background music. When I first went to Pandora back in June...

I was excited to go to Epcot during the Food & Wine Festival. I like my local festivals where I can grab a beer & some food, like town-day celebration or Oktoberfest. I read about the different opinions of the F&W experience here, but wanted to make my own opinion. And sadly it was not a good...

Hey all. A friend couldn't make an upcoming party event. So they transferred the ticket to me via MDE. I now have the ticket showing as assigned to me. If I now remove/unlink that friend from me in my MDE account...will this have an adverse effects on the ticket that was transferred to me? Will...

I noticed an issue with My Disney Experience app on Android. I have a Samsung Galaxy S8. The default map is the Magic Kingdom (I think, well at least it is on mine). If you then select a different park, say Epcot and hit "Apply"....nothing happens! The map doesn't move at all from the Magic...

I was thinking today about the fact that Brian Trasnseau (aka BT Music) composed what is essentially a full and immersive "soundtrack" for Shanghai's Tomorrowland. I always love the background theme music (BTM) at the parks. It's special and is such a necessary part of the fantasy. I would love...

So, Disney's latest mega-movie is Star Wars The Last Jedi. It will make a lot of money for sure...but will it satisfy Disney? I don't think the reactions to it are what Disney was hoping for. Critics, in their small numbers, seem to view it favorably. While the much larger public does not, if...

At the big annual convention of the IAAPA (International Association of Amusement Parks And Attractions) this weekend, Dynamic Attractions announced & showed their all-terrain "dark ride" vehicle...which looks impressive. They also hinted at a property being tied to this, the classic good guys...
