    News Disney World Faces Rare Hard Freeze - January 31 2026

    I've been there when it was this cold. One of the unexpected things I recall was scraping the car windshield with a leftover plastic credit-card style (expired) hotel room key. When I have reported this type of cold on the forums, some folks tried to tell me WDW doesn't get frost. It does...

    Which park needs the most urgent attention?

    I suppose it depends on your view of things to do. I agree it could use more rides, but there are quite a few gardens and quiet nooks. We can fairly easily fill time in the Seas pavilion looking at all the critter tanks. (We have a much harder time finding anything to do in HS between...

    Which park needs the most urgent attention?

    IMO, I'd generally say HS, but right now all the parks are in somewhat sad shape until the updates/new additions open. MK- the loss of Buzz, BTMRR, and TSI/riverboat is palpable. AK- in really bad shape right now, but itis the least crowded of the parks. HS- still kind of miserable to tour as...

    2025 was an awful year

    1. there are alternatives 2. I ordered a cake, I think, in 2024. It was insanely expensive, and not very good. The options were limited. My cake was also through GF. i was able to get it delivered to AKL, but I had to be ther to pick it up, so it wasn't especially convenient. Going back to...

    Restaurants, how many and your most and least favorite

    Rough attempt to count them all, I get 196 total dining locations, but I'm not counting every individual ice cream cart, nor am I counting the Epcot festival food booths. for me, it would be shorter to count the places I have not tried, though there are a number I have never tried. I also did...

    2025 was an awful year

    Actually, this display area had to cost Disney something. It has multiple modern museum quality displays and is very well done. There are plaques, nice displays w custom lighting/signage, large video displays. There are also miniatures displayed in custom-lighted display walls. Outside the area...

    2025 was an awful year

    I'm not sure how to word this, but one area I've noticed a WDW change has to do with allergy dining. To be fair, it is a mixed bag. WDW (and Universal)staff are usually pretty careful, but we noticed a some change in the last year or so where the regular menus now have more allergen-containing...

    2025 was an awful year

    That Epcot location currently has a display of costumes and props from Disney's Broadway shows. Decidedly a much better use of the space. Costumes aren't everyone's cup of tea, but the current display is very well done.

    News New Polynesian Resort DVC villas building to open 2024

    You are correct, that day guest = anyone who comes to a WDW hotel to eat, shop, etc. The main restriction used to be that only people staying at the hotel could park overnight. WDW's written policy has not kept pace with on-the-ground policy. I quoted that policy because it says day guests are...

    News New Polynesian Resort DVC villas building to open 2024

    Anyone staying at one of WDW's hotels and AP holders are onsite 'guests.' This is not an interpretation, the wording is direct from Disney. For example, under parking policies WDW's own website says (bold is direct from the WDW website) , "Additionally, standard self-parking is complimentary...

    Severe Cold Weather Advisory Issued for Walt Disney World Nov 11 2025

    Long ago, my oil ran out on a cold night. I had 3 dogs staying with me. They slept on the bed. It was a 3-dog night.😁 Stay warm everyone!

    EPCOT Remy's Ratatouille Adventure to transition to 2D with brief refurbishment in November 2025

    Off-topic, but IMO the best way to ride Tron is to avoid using the handlebars at all, except to load/unload. IMO, the ride is only fun if you ride- especially the outdoor part- with your arms out Superman style. Also makes for a great photo. Otherwise, I'm with you on skipping it. It isn't...

    MNSSHP Table Service Question

    Did you end up going, or are you planning ahead for next year? Your thread asks a good question, and is the type of question that is perfect for a WDW forum, because it can be hard to find out via WDW. If you are planning for next year, the menu offerings may well be different. This is just...

    Bad experience at T-Rex on 10/20

    The outage on the 27th was pretty significant, but I have had this happen to me other times at WDW, while dining at a WDW owned restaurant. One time it was when we went to pay the bill at a TS, the other was a mobile order. The mobile order looked like it had gone through, I had a verified...

    News The Magic of New Year's Eve at California Grill

    Still $&$, and above what I'd be willing to spend, but the menu does sound appealing. And it is better than last year! It would be rough though if say, you booked prepaid this offering and then came down w the flu that day or something and had to cancel that day. Even just for two pple...
