    LL booking day strategy

    I want to start off by saying the strategy you choose is always somewhat going to end up a matter of personal choice and luck. I'm also assuming you are staying onsite. 1. One bit of strategy I use is to look at the pricing for all the parks each day of my visit. The lower the price, the less...

    News Wait Times Hit 3-Hour as Presidents' Day and Mardi Gras Collide at Disney World

    Sadly, the one thing missing from my notes was the SM posted wait that night. It was closed earlier in the day, and they were letting people use (expired) LL if they also qualified for EEH. I was able to bypass the wait for SM using my LL, but the standby queue was long, and moving slowly/full...

    MK Big Thunder Mountain to receive full retrack

    Yikes! Hopefully I'm wrong, but it doesn't look particularly close to re-opening. WDW could really use that ride capacity.

    News Wait Times Hit 3-Hour as Presidents' Day and Mardi Gras Collide at Disney World

    huh? You said you don't remember seeing long lines at after-hours events. I gave a list of examples of why long wait surges are common during extra hours. A few weeks ago, SM specifically had a long queue during EE while the rest of the park was quiet.

    Oh one more thing not mentioned in this thread, yesterday was also the Lunar New Year.

    News Wait Times Hit 3-Hour as Presidents' Day and Mardi Gras Collide at Disney World

    I do. Specifically at SM and the late-night extended hours for onsite guests currently being offered: 1. long waits for SM are common at the start of the 2hour window. 2. Posted waits and actual waits often differ. 3. LLMP and LLPP have a big impact on posted wait times when a ride re-opens...

    Lightning Lane Premier Pass

    Maybe! 🕵️‍♀️ Alas, this thread jumped the shark about 100 pages back.

    How much effort you are putting into this subject?

    Lightning Lane Premier Pass

    WDW also has a history of selling overpriced products to people . This forum is supposed to be a place where we, the consumers, try to help each other out and save any of us from becoming Disney spendthrifts. Hyperbole and outright lies, like saying LLPP = no waiting at all, only erodes this...

    Lightning Lane Premier Pass

    That's the ad, not reality. Most of us are park veterans who know: 1. LLPP = still having to wait in the LL. 2. No LL re-rides, no matter how empty the park is. 3. LLPP doesn't work with park hopping, but LLMP does.

    Lightning Lane Premier Pass

    There are more variables in MK, including more rides that don't have LL, but the price of LLPP is also much higher. I also skipped over AKL because LL includes multiple shows. It is easy to see the big shows without LL, so I've never used a LL for one of them. Does it get someone a slightly...

    Lightning Lane Premier Pass

    I am a little surprised that people are still debating the value of PP. Surely, you've both made your opinions known to each other by now, yes? Factually, this is the current waits posted in Epcot, at 1pm on the day FEA reopened Pixar - always walk-on FEA - 50 GoG - 65 Figment - 10 - avail...

    Mickey Mouse Now Roaming Magic Kingdom in Surprise Character Encounters

    I don't think that is entirely the situation. Especially because they never entirely disappeared from WDW. WDW has a history of offering roaming characters and un-advertised meet and greets during busy weeks like Easter. In AK, I've seen Kevin many times. DiVine also has periodic...

    Mickey Mouse Now Roaming Magic Kingdom in Surprise Character Encounters

    I've always thought the problem had more to do with the fact that the characters don't interact with everyone. WDW sold a great many Photo passes and autograph books with the understanding that their customers would get many photos and autographs. People won't buy either product unless it has...

    First Time Driving

    As far as I know, every state makes up their own EZPass rules. Some have fees, but you can buy one in any state. You do NOT have to reside in that state. Some states are essentially free, but you pre-pay a set amount, that gets charged again when you use up the funds. While you don't have to...
