    Nassau or no?

    They do have some interestinf liquor drinks at Pirate Republic too. They have a pirate tour and free wifi as well. We went last year at this time, but the “pirate had called in sick” and the wifi was down, so we didn’t stay long. It has all thr makings to be a great place. We could see it from...

    MagicBand + cancelled reservation

    Thanks! I just wasn’t sure since these are new if Disney would want them returned.

    MagicBand + cancelled reservation

    I know this question has been asked in some capacity, but I’m a little confused in my situation. I booked a room at ASMovies and our magic bands are set to arrive tomorrow. No fast passes booked as we’re just doing MNSSHP. I am actually going to end up renting DVC points from someone, so once...

    June Crowds...

    I’m honestly beginning to think Summer may be the new time to go. Everyone takes off time from work to go during “low” times now. Or there are good enough promos that make people visit during off peak times. We went in October and it was packed. I follow several Disney people on Instagram and...

    Rope Drop Epcot from International Gateway

    We stayed at YC in June and rope dropped from IG. We didn’t hit frozen first because we had a FP for it later. We went straight to Soarin and wait time was about 20-30 by the time we made it there. Crowd level at IG entrance was very low.

    2nd week of June or 3rd week of August

    We’ve done second week in June and it’s not bad. The heat in Florida is pretty brutal, so August would probably be hotter than June. We had a really nice week of temps in the 80s when we went last June, but it was a total fluke and not normal.

    November or December?

    Thanks! We are teachers and we’re off Veterans Day. But we are also out for Christmas break in December. We’d miss no school days in December, but we would miss one day in November. Our family is all pretty local, so coming back on the 23rd wouldn’t make a huge difference. I guess the pool...

    November or December?

    We have a deal through Hilton to go for 4 days/3 nights. Trying to decide between Veteran’s Day weekend in November (second weekend) or Dec 20-23. Thoughts? I’ve done October, summer, and after Christmas before, but never before Christmas or November. What kind of decor will be up Nov 9-12...

    Quick, low cost December trip

    I’m hoping to plan a quick 3 day trip down mid December. In order to keep cost down, I think we’re just going to stay 2 nights and do MVMCP in lieu of paying for a park ticket. From my parents’ house I can make the drive in 5-6 hours. Questions: 1. Has anyone used Undercover Tourist to purchase...

    To ADP or not?

    Thanks everyone for the answers. It’s definitely something I’m entertaining. Hopefully I can get someone to buy it for me for Christmas :oops: As for the rest of what broke out in the middle of the discussion. I, too, am annoyed that Disney charges as much as they do for Kids, but they can, and...

    Best Club Level Resort?

    I'm late to the discussion, but we loved the Club Level at YC. Our daughter loved the kids table with the TV. When her younger brother was napping, she liked going to get cookies and other snacks in the lounge and having a TV to herself. The booze certainly helped us adults too. My DH, who is...

    To ADP or not?

    They were last week when I was there too. Yet another incentive.

    Club level?

    Does anyone know if there are plans to add club level in more DVC resorts?

    Club level?

    Is AKL still the only DVC resort offering club level? We want to rent points for our next trip, but club level is a priority for my in laws and AKL is prob on the bottom of our list.

    To ADP or not?

    How does it work when you book a vacation package? For example, we and my in laws are planning on going in June. As far as I know, the option for black out date APs doesn't exist anymore if purchasing now. We aren't FL residents. So, if we booked a vacation package with tickets and hotel stay...

    To ADP or not?

    We live about 7.5 hours from Disney. We were just there in June, I just took a trip back myself with school for a field trip. I'm constantly dying to go but the prices are so discouraging and I'm just a measly teacher. So I'm debating getting an ADP. My questions are: 1. Aside from the park...

    June or August?

    I'd give the edge to June. If you are going early in June, crowds will be lower and so will temps. August will be crowded and sooooo hot. Not that June isn't hot, but we went in June this year and it was actually nice. Temps in the mid 80s. It wasn't the total norm, but very bearable and crowds...

    Rivers of Light FastPass

    I just got back today and we FPed Rivers of Light. It was totally unnecessary but we were unable to score any other FPs, so we went with it. It was convenient to walk up 15 min before showtime and know we had seats, but there were plenty of open seats. I guess it just depends what time of year...

    How late after park hours?

    Hopefully someone can answer fairly quickly as I'm in WDW now. Our plan for tonight is to go to Rivers of Light at AK at 9:00. The park "closes" at 9. Will all rides be closed after the show? We were hoping to get to Pandora tonight, but I wasn't sure how the park hours actually work.

    What Resort do you love to stay at? And which do you not enjoy as much?

    We may be in the minority group that likes to splurge on deluxes. We go every other year, so we save up for 2 years to splurge when we return. We have younger kids and actually spend more time in the room and like having the nicer pools and better locations. I've never been to CSR, but pics...
