I am arriving for a 5 day stay on March 2 and have been told there is a new service available for park hopper guests. The service transfers you from park to park without going outside the park. The cost is $29 for each guest for a multiple day ticket. Has anyone used this service? Seems like...

Thanks for the posts to my question. I hope Disney continues to work on keeping the property neat and well maintained. That's one of the magical things about going there. We always marveled at how Disney did things better than anyone else. From keeping the property clean, moving people...

It's probably a case of guests being more tolerant of litter. As the post from the UK mentioned, "A bit of litter never hurt anyone" seems to be a general feeling for some. I always felt that they put trash cans on property for a reason. The trash goes in the can, not just close. Clean up...

Just scheduled a family trip for June. My first visit was in 1973 with my parents. This will be visit number 15. Over the years, I have noticed the park cleanliness standards decreasing. I know it's tough to keep a place clean when the visitor's aren't doing their part. I am curious about...

Thanks for all the input. Pretty sure I will stay with my first thought and pass on the trip insurance. Sounds like I can probably work with reservations if something big occurs. My only concern to cancel would be in the event of an auto accident on the trip there or a sudden death or...

Just booked a June trip for 14 people using five rooms and 5 day park hopper staying at CBR. Reservation lady very helpful taking about one hour to make the arrangements. Question about trip insurance she offered. Sounds expensive and I didn't purchase but was told I could add later...

Just curious. Taking a trip to WDW in December. Do the parks still have the frozen ice cream pellets. They used to have them at various stands around the parks. They were frozen using dry ice and served in small cups. I believe they had them in EPCOT and maybe TL. Just curious if they still...

Need some advice from the Magic Crew. I have a six person trip reserved for five nights and six day park hoppers for pre Christmas. Staying at CBR with two rooms. Wife, three daughters, and one son in law. Son in law has just found out that he has a conflict with the travel days. I booked the...

Thanks to all for the info. I especially like the site DizneyPryncess recommended. Seems like you know alot about all things Disney!

Where should I go to find merchandise items that are currently being sold in the parks? I always have trouble buying items I see in the parks and trying to get them home without breaking or stuffing in luggage. I hope WDW has a way to buy direct from them.

Does anyone know if the pavilions in Epcot are used for something besides the attractions? The Canada pavilion looks pretty big and is several floors tall. It could be used for office space, storage, etc... I know the castle at MK was built with the idea of an apartment for Walt and family...

Need a little advice WDWMAGIC crew. Which characters usually appear at the various character meals? We have the dining plan for December and are trying to decide on a character meal. I know they are spread around various restaurants, parks, resorts,etc... Any help would be appreciated.:veryconfu

I looked up the info on wdwgolf and got the rates. It looks like the rates drop quite a bit in December. I think I will try the Magnolia and Palm courses. I especially like the idea of being close to MK and hearing the train whistle while I play. I also want to see the Mickey Mouse sand...

Once again, the WDWMAGIC crew is helping BIG TIME! Thanks for all the info. A couple of other questions, do the courses mentioned charge a different fee if playing in the AM of PM and do they usually try to pair you with another couple to get a foursome?

I need input from the WDWMAGIC crew. I have a family vacation booked for the second week in December. We have two room a CRB. I want to take my new son-in-law golfing a couple of days. Since we are flying and will not have a rental car, how do we make our transfer to the golf course? Also...
