    Where to dine on Animal Kingdom day?

    The beef sliders at Nomad Lounge are awesome. Satu’li canteen is yummy. Yak and yeti TS is delicious if you can get a reservation. Sanaa at Kidani village is amazing and so is the view. If you’re looking for a quick snack instead of a full meal the chicken dumplings and season fries at Mr Kamals...

    AKV Kidani or CSR

    I would stay at Kidani over CSR any day. It’s worth the extra cost. Also you can request a partial savannah view at check-in and they may sprinkle some pixie dust your way. It’s happened for me before while staying in a standard view. Edit to add: I’ve stayed at CSR and it was ok but you can’t...

    help to decide?

    I think it depends on how much you’ll be in your room. They are all very nice. However OKW rooms are bigger because it’s technically a DVC resort. In a deluxe studio you do get a small kitchenette that you don’t get in the other 2 hotels. If you get a 1 bedroom there you get a full kitchen...

    question on switching hotels

    If you’re going to a park on the morning of your OWK stay you can take your luggage to bell services at the Poly and they’ll transfer your luggage to OWK. If you want to travel to OKW with your luggage you’ll need to either Uber/Lyft or take a bus from the Poly to a park and then transfer to...

    Sorcerers of the magic kingdom cards.

    Can’t speak for the Christmas party, but I got cards in October and there wasn’t a MNSSHP card.

    Who is going to WDW?

    I went on opening day in July, 6 days the last week of October, and have a 3 day trip planned in January.

    Does anyone else find Rise of the Resistance and Runaway Railway underwhelming?

    I loved ROTR. I was upset with myself for waiting in line for an hour to ride MRR. I was absolutely underwhelmed by that ride. It was a one and done for me.

    Resorts Deluxe

    I’m highly in favor of buying DVC points from an owner or a website like Dave’s if you want to be in a Deluxe but the price is just too much. I rented AKL the last week of October. We’re doing 6 nights and it was less than $1000.

    Bus wait time

    There are dividers on the bus and some seats are marked off so you can’t sit in them. You also don’t get to choose where you sit. The driver asks how many in your party and he appropriately seats you.

    COVID Procedures?

    I was there on Saturday for opening day. Here’s what I observed. FWIW, I was at US and IOA Wed-Friday and they were great in their procedures. Hand Sanitizer stations are posted at all entrances and exits (rides, attractions, eateries). One way in and one way out of all shops and eateries...

    Bus wait time

    It wasn’t bad. We left at closing and got on a bus within 10 mins.

    Bus wait time

    I was there yesterday and the bus wait wasn’t terrible. There was definitely a line 1st thing in the am at Pop, but around 9 am there was no line at all. The bus driver was asking for the number in your party to appropriately seat you. There were seats clearly marked to not use. I’d say I...

    French Quarter and Riverside

    We had to contact them for something other than the room and while on that call they told us we needed to switch. We did switch to CBR and in a preferred room. I would wait to contact Disney about the room. In hindsight we could have waited for our issue as well. I’m hoping POFQ or POR opens...

    French Quarter and Riverside

    I also had reservations at POFQ 10/25-10/30 and was given the option of only CSR or CBR. I’m not a fan of CSR and I’ve never stayed at CBR but the person I’m traveling with has and doesn’t care for it. So disappointed we weren’t given any other options.

    Has your resort reservation been changed yet? To what resort?

    ok thanks. That’s what I thought. We had to call Disney for an entirely different reason and they told us we would need to move and the only options we were offered was CBR or CSR. No upgrade was offered without us having to pay for it.
