    News Splash Mountain retheme to Princess and the Frog - Tiana's Bayou Adventure

    My apologies. Just being hopeful. I wouldn't go to Disneyland again anyway, but it gave me some hope that maybe there was some pushback from within the company. It's really ridiculous how much this angers and depresses me. At least there's still Tokyo.

    News Splash Mountain retheme to Princess and the Frog - Tiana's Bayou Adventure

    Just saw a youtube video from someone who often reports on a lot of "insider" stuff at Disney and especially Star Wars. I think we all know WDW's Splash is toast unfortunately, but there may be some hope for Disneyland's if what he reports is true! Looks like it was posted yesterday (2/7/23).

    Fantasmic Dinner Packages Failure

    I was having this same issue for our trip in late January and just saw this message. It's still not loading any times for any restaurant in January. Could this have completely filled for every restaurant for Jan 20-26 already? Are that few reservations available? Update: I called the Dining...

    AKL Club level and west coast sleep shift

    Hello all. 2 questions (if I should separate these into 2 different threads, please let me know). 1. We're going for 5 nights in January. With the current (meager) $400 deal, a club level Savannah view room at AKL would only be about $700 more than the regular room is. I've researched it to see...

    Xmas at Disney and Santa

    We recently moved to Alaska, are living in temporary housing, and all of our stuff is in a tractor trailer being stored until we get a house. Our realtor told us yesterday that it is unlikely we'll have a house before Xmas. So I started trying to think of a way to make the holiday magical...

    Family of 4 but kids don't want to sleep in same bed

    Just throwing this out there as no one has mentioned it... one of them can sleep on the floor on top of some blankets. When i took my now wife and step kids about 10-12y ago, i slept in the floor in our room. We just made a 9 day drive from NC to Alaska with our 8y/o twins. They fussed about...

    Disney Genie and Genie+ at Walt Disney World

    This blatant money grab is hilarious to me given Disney's comments re: Scarlet Johansson's lawsuit. Just as a reminder, they said "The lawsuit is especially sad and distressing in its callous disregard for the horrific and prolonged global effects of the COVID-19 pandemic." So they think a...

    Linking credit card to magic band

    We had the same problem as the OP in the MK at the beginning of this week. It was day 5 or 6 of our trip when my wife went to get some funnel cakes in Liberty Square when her magic band got rejected. As a side note, I had bought breakfast that morning at the hotel with my magic band without any...

    Caribbean Beach Resort thoughts

    We're actually at CBR right now. We've stayed here 2 times previously and liked it. We just wrapped up day 2 of our stay, so what I'm saying here is only based on that. When booking it this time, I was aware of the construction and knew the bus routes were affected, but the bus routes are worse...

    Shoes for water parks

    Thanks for asking this! We're going in the beginning of May and will be going to the waterparks for the first time. Just a follow-up question: Are there any rules limiting the types of shoes you can wear on the rides there? I googled it and only found that you can't have exposed metal clips. Any...

    Maydays

    Hello all. I'm planning a trip to WDW in May for our family of 4 and was hoping you good folks could help me pick the days. We can go essentially anytime in the 1st 3weeks of May. I was thinking of a Wed to Tues trip for the cheap airfares, but I'm open to ideas. Like everyone else, I'd like the...

    Pros & Cons to taking a toddler to Disney World

    We took our twins a month before they turned 3. Like so many others said, it was an awesome experience and we got some really special pictures and videos; I would totally do it again. There was no stranger danger; they were actually surprisingly outgoing with the characters and many of the...

    My Unpopular WDW Opinion - post yours!

    The short version: WDW >>> DL Got flamed hard for this when I made a post about our trip to DL a couple of years ago. Admittedly, some of my metaphors about specific aspects of DL were taken more broadly than I intended (hence some of the flaming) and, based on the feedback on my post, my...

    Pandora - The World of Avatar opening day reports

    Thanks to everyone for the updates! It's been fun to follow along while I'm trapped at work this weekend. The thing I've really been wondering about is how are the crowds at the other parks during this opening? I realize it's a crowded weekend regardless of the opening, but does it seem like...
