    Serious sadness about not going this weekend

    It does suck and you can feel a little sorry for yourself, no judgment. I'm so sorry for your loss. You are experiencing a terrible loss and then this happens. It's so much grief. Give yourself time and let yourself grieve. Disney will be there waiting for you, hopefully in the not to distant...

    Port Orleans Riverside Opinions needed!

    We always prefer pofq. Love to be by the river and we can take the boat to Disney springs, a huge advantage. Love the atmosphere and the small size. You can use 2 big pools( with slides) for the price of one. A huge plus for families. I always prefer a room with a door to the outside. I know...

    What will you appreciate more about WDW after the pandemic?

    We're passholders and the past 2 years we've stayed off property due to parking fees etc. Now I'm actually willing to pay those ridiculous prices to stay in p.o.f.q. I want to be immersed, totally in the bubble. Want to sit by the river. I want to take a carriage ride and spend all day by the...

    Masks at WDW

    Ok, I live in Orlando and I'm a passholder. I miss Disneyworld a lot. I voted yes I would wear a mask and then went out to store today. It's almost 90 here. I agree with the poster that it's suffocating, my 9 year old said she couldn't take it. Wearing it outside even from the car to the store...

    Any truth in this

    I was hoping for a soft opening of sorts for passholders only but now that I read this I could see it as a real possibility. It fills the hotels (thus employing more staff) and just makes more money. It only makes sense if all attractions are open though. No one would pay and travel for half an...

    Pass renewal question

    Our passes are up for renewal April 4th. According to disney we dont have to renew until they reopen. They also will credit all time they are closed to passholders. If i dont renew right away and therefore dont make payments will they a. Grandfather the downpayment into the monthly b. Credit...

    Why are hotels sold out/super expensive weekend of March 6, 2020???

    Just a thought, but this is also tax refund time. I've stayed on property with people using their refund to vacation. Locals head to Disney to staycation. It's not everything but it adds to the crowds. Florida spring break is in March usually not that early but much earlier than up north and not...

    Cheap pizza

    Where we live, 40 miles from the world, we can get a whole pie at a national chain for around 7-10$for a large pepperoni. We frequently staycation inside the bubble or very near and can't find that price at those same chains or anywhere else. The closest I can get that price seems to be the Dr...

    What will Disney’s response be to Universals 4th gate?

    Does anyone else think it is a massive inconvenience that unis 4th gate is way the heck over by the convention center? How long is going to take to get there and doesn't that break the spell that Disney is able to cast keeping you away from the outside world? Uni will never be able to provide...

    What's the deal with the Haunted Mansion?

    My 10 year old is autistic and it's his favorite ride. It's private, you get your own doom buggy, it's dark and it's long. The experience feels very personal. I adore it. It reminds me of old Vincent Price movies.

    Weight limit water park rides moving forward?

    Thanks for the additional context. I still do believe they have space constraints as I have read that several places. Regardless, it appears the lawsuit has merit and this poor man will suffer because of their carelessness. I'm glad he didn't drown. Guest beware at water parks. They have...

    Weight limit water park rides moving forward?

    So I did a little research. The problem with this ride is that the run off at the end is far too short. If you've ever ridden these race type slides normally the end flat part is quite long and the water depth is quite shallow. Punga racer has a very short run off and deeper water so you it...

    Weight limit water park rides moving forward?

    The weight limit was because of the accident. I'm assuming his weight caused him to go down the slide faster and then hit the water more violently. I'm sure they wouldn't have built it with that weight limit in mind. Most adult men and many teenage boys couldn't ride. There are also not a lot of...

    Nomad Lounge - how busy?

    Best kept secret in a.k. I have been unable to find a table on occasion. A table outside on the river is a score. The food is a little off the beaten path, though not far, so some nugget eaters avoid. 4:30 should be ok, I would think close to r.o.l. also good, but I've never been then. Yum...
