    'Ultimate Disney Fall Into Magic Package' offers exclusive experiences this September

    That's great! I was trying to get CBR, but there was no availability, I would have entertained CSR but the agent didn't make any suggestions about other resorts. She just told me the package was no longer available.

    Last One In for Character Meal??

    This was exactly our experience at 'Ohana(except it was full). We had last seating, took FOREVER to get seated...BUT we were not rushed in anyway and had a marvelous time.

    What did you love and hate about Pop Century?

    Love the new rooms, BUT I fear the minimalist design does not hold up to the number of folks passing through there. We did a 90's room (first to be remodeled) early this year and there were lots of scuffs/wear for a newly remodeled room. We had a 80's room at thanksgiving and it was perfect...

    How is resort parking billed?

    Yes, I tried using my magic band (not to avoid being marked as having a car...just because I thought I was "checked-in") upon initial arrival. The gate would not open. So then the guard came over with a hand held device, checked my ID and then clicked/checked me in to his device. I would assume...

    How is resort parking billed?

    They were very thorough in checking us in at the gate, the guard checked my ID against the reservation. I assume that is the point at which I was identified as having a vehicle.

    New Magic Band boxes disappointing.

    I'm a real live and let live sort of person...so If you hated or didn't care for the box that's great. I however did like both the shipping box...which I reused for storage of knick-knacks or even for mailing something else and the nice box the Magic Bands came in I saved with the Magic Bands...

    New Magic Band boxes disappointing.

    I was disappointed when they consolidated the Magic Band Box with the shipping box...I'm sure it saves money. The old Magic Band boxes were nice keepsakes.

    What was your best magical moment a cast member did for you?

    We went to Mickey's Very, Very, Very Early, Not So Scary Halloween Party for Labor Day Weekend and made an "Orange Bird" costume for our 2 year old son. (It was his birthday trip). When we went to order Dole Whips from the Aloha Isle Refreshments the castmembers insisted that "Mickey" take care...

    News 'Disney After Hours' ticketed event

    Summer Saturdays! That's either brazen, or it really is true that Summer is now the off season....

    Appreciation of Closed Attractions in Hindsight?

    Yes, its Disney, someone, somewhere will lament every change no matter what. :-) There are attractions at Disneyland I did not particularly miss at the time they were removed until I got to Magic Kingdom and they still had them there and it made me very nostalgic. (Country Bears, Carousel...

    Appreciation of Closed Attractions in Hindsight?

    I think part of the outcry is that the replacements are arguably not in the spirit of the attractions they replaced. Ellen's Energy Adventure/Energy Pavilion is being replaced by a sci-fi roller coaster, and Maelstrom is replaced by a Fantasyland Dark Ride. The objection is not so much due to...

    News Star Wars Galactic Nights returns to Disney's Hollywood Studios in May 2018

    We got our tickets for this, we went to the last Star Wars Weekends(back in 2015) and had a blast. Hoping its similarly enjoyable. This past year we've been hitting the up charge parties a lot. WDW has gotten so routinely crowded during our visits that it is one of the ways to enjoy some time in...

    News WDW Resorts to add fees for parking

    I'm not much of a letter writer and I doubt it will do any good but I sent them a letter saying Parking Fees (and Resort Fees) are the bridge I most likely won't cross when it comes to staying onsite. I've already booked 2 offsite upcoming trips because the values & moderates were full for the...

    Pop Century March 2017 Never again....

    Overall I am a Pop Century Fan because I like the oversized retro decor. Our experiences have been mostly positive...but I have found the rooms on occasion musty(to be fair this seems pretty common for "affordable" Florida lodging). Once the ac just didn't quite clear it out, once there was no...

    Astro Orbiting

    I loved the Disneyland Version "The Rocket Jets", and was devastated when it was relocated/rethemed/reimagined. Recently got to ride the Magic Kingdom version for the first time and I loved it...it brought back so many memories. My 15 month old son loved it too, he didn't want to leave the ride...

    HKDL gets new castle, frozen land and marvel land.

    Some one really likes the turrets from the Tangled Castle, first Shanghai and now Hong Kong...not convinced they flow with the other architectural details, they really should stick to one style like the DL, MK, TDL & DLP castles did.

    Town Square, Main Street USA

    We did for our youngest son's first haircut. It was wonderful, they have a package that includes a certificate, a small memento that includes hair trimmings, and an infant set of Mickey Ears with "My First Haircut" embroidered on it. Although they do offer advance reservations they fill up...

    Town Square, Main Street USA

    I really love the Barber Shop and being able to meet Mickey Mouse right there when you get there in the beautiful Town Square Theater Building. I love how "grand" Magic Kingdom Main Street is, with it's double height porches, and many turrets, & towers. I think it is wonderful that the two...
