If you haven't already, I highly suggest renting DVC points! We booked a studio at Old Key West for the week after New Years (12/31/23-1/5/24) through DVC Rental Store and it is about $500 less than booking the same dates through Disney at Port Orleans French Quarter. This will be our third...

This has been my experience as well with regard to battery life. We were there in June and my mom used her band from our trip in 2017 without any issues. I have also never had any problems pairing my band like some others in the thread have noted. But I did appreciate on our last trip that I...

Great point!

We've requested cribs a number of times at different resorts and have never been denied. We've also not had it in room upon arrival and had to call the front desk for them to bring it up. It is always a pack and play at Disney, and they usually offer to set it up for us. One tip - I always...

We used Mears but did the private car service, which allowed me to request a car seat. We had 4 adults, a 5 year old and an 8 month old. My 5 year old thought it was super cool that the driver was waiting for us with our name on a sign when we got to baggage claim. The ride was quick and...

We just got home today from a week at Disney and had some limited experiences that I think weren’t up to the standard we once experienced, but overall we had a wonderful time and didn’t notice most of the things noted above. I don’t remember seeing much trash at all. We had multiple “pixie dust”...

Cant second this one enough. We've taken our little one 5 times starting when she was 5 months, with trip #6 coming this summer for her 5th birthday. This summer will be the first trip for our new baby (9 months) as well. We basically pick one night to make a dining reservation, mid trip to...

Has anyone ever used the Mears Luxury Van service from MCO to your resort? We are a party of 6 (including a baby and a toddler) and I was going to do the Mears express service, which the website says is $305. But the Luxury Van service has flat rates each direction and would end up being $225...

We’re here right now. They have registers open that you can order from, or you can mobile order. But there aren’t walk up fridges. You just tell the register what you want, they give you a buzzer, and you wait for them to bring up your order. I saw someone get a half gallon of milk that way...

I haven't eaten at the restaurants (but loved the coffee shop on our skyliner hop last trip), so I have question. The prices at Primo are higher than other resort QS restaurants for the same meals (like Pop's food court). Not by a ton, but from $0.50 to $1 for things like Mickey waffle kids...

How did you sign up for the Fairy Godmother in Training thing? That looks adorable! I was bummed that my soon to be 4 year old would miss BBB on our upcoming trip but this might be a wonderful alternative.

I rode the Safari when I was 4 months pregnant with my first after discussing with my doctor. Nothing bad happened, thank goodness! I'm pregnant now with my second and am thinking about riding it when we go in June (I will be 6 months) - my biggest hesitation is really the judge-y stares I'm...

Our daughter used them on all 4 legs of our flight to Iceland and back and seemed to be able to hear everything ok. My only complaint is that I had to readjust the placement of the speakers in the headband for her every time she yanked the cord too hard.

CozyPhones Over The Ear Headband Headphones - Kids Headphones Volume Limited with Thin Speakers & Super Soft Stretchy Headband - Mystic Unicorn these are the ones we got and she still loves them. Also helps for long car rides where we don’t want to listen to The Jungle Book in repeat 😊

We flew with our two year old to Iceland and had all these same worries (except masking which wasn’t a thing then.) as someone else noted above, chewing gummies and sucking through a straw helps release ear pressure, and we didn’t have any trouble with that. We also got headphones that are...
