Hey guys! Planning yet another Japanese trip that will involve a short stop over to HKDL, anyone has a view on the refurbishments? I can't find anything online and the official website only states what's closed today. This will be around the end of november - mid december

I might be not seeing the whole picture but, from a financial standpoint, how would it not be beneficial? It's free money for Disney, they get their teams employed and they sell to someone for a large amount of money.

Yes go for it and get an early slot. We did the fantasyland classics before doing it with DPA (having it booked when we entered the park) at 9:30 and had 2 other reservations for later in the day (one more DPA after using the first and the vacation package one)

You are correct. Disneyland in one day is fine, Disneysea 2 days is what you need. I've spent one day there almost done no rides host walking around and doing shows. The one thing you need in Disneyland is a good DPA speed for BatB, I grabbed 4 in one day last time in December 😅 (1 from vacation...

I've done a few long Japan trips now, let me know what you need and I'll drop the knowledge I have. Whether it's hotels, places to see, places to eat, what to pack, how to get around the country efficiently, etc

Just got back from 2 days at the parks including the privatized evening on Wednesday. Will post thorough thoughts eventually, but we did see the new nighttime show twice, unfortunately twice on b-mode (no drones). Even then, honestly great show. The only thing I wasn't into too much was the Buzz...

I was in TDS yesterday and TDL 2 days ago, just woke up (it’s 8:30 here in Tokyo). Wow, this was so different than the other TDR trips I’ve made. Crowds were insane, we had the vacation package with our pre selections, I bought quite a few DPA, we were in the lines really early before opening...

Thanks all, I remembered seeing the visuals but the video made me doubt for a second. Looking forward to see the new show in January !

Wondering one thing… No fireworks ??

If you're very rich, good news, more ways to optimize your precious time! If you're not very rich, bad news, your average queue time will increase by 1%.

In the Netherlands, the best alcohol available are Belgian beers or French & Italian wine 😂 (I kid I kid). Locally they have good Jenever (Genever), which is kinda between Gin & Whisky. There are many different distilleries in the Netherlands & Belgium (+ France & Germany). I unfortunately don't...

Heh, it’s just the first few months. There’s always a lot of enthusiasm for every new addition. But yeah, I did splurge on a vacation package for my December visit because it’s gonna be the lady’s first visit and she loves Tangled. I didn’t tell her anything about the parks yet, just that it’s...

Liquor stores are not a thing here, you can buy alcohol in any random grocery store that has some. I’m sure there’s plenty of Albert Heijn, Jumbo and others that you will encounter for your supplies needs :)

There are some real high end restaurant in the city, like this wagyu teppanyaki place with Japanese chefs, overall many really tasty Asian places from south east Asia because of the Dutch empire. I always grab a pho from a very local place down a small alley, I can give you the address if you...

If you’re going on a working day in October, it’s not impossible to do many, if not all of the major attractions of both parks in a day. That being said, if you want to appreciate the beauty of the Parc Disneyland and not rush too much, that would easily be the one I’d pick
