    Disney Genie and Genie+ at Walt Disney World

    Per the app yesterday it was dining and park reservations upgrades overnight last night.

    Disney Genie and Genie+ at Walt Disney World

    Seemingly a complete outage. Can’t buy Genie, book Genie if purchased already, book virtual queue, book park reservation. Fortunately I booked a park last night or I’d seemingly be out of luck even having a place to go this morning. Got up at 6:55 — because that’s what I’m forced to do to...

    News Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster closing for refurbishment in February 2023

    Deadline.com is reporting that Steven Tyler is being sued for assault of a 16 year-old decades ago. Wonder if this will extend this refurb even longer…

    News Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind attraction confirmed for Epcot

    I think i was just trying to distinguish the bourbon and Coke and the straight bourbon. You are correct. There was no “shooting” of the bourbon. Regardless of the ingestion method or speed thereof, the liquor (although more likely the “more front” seat placement) made the ride more enjoyable.

    Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind SPOILER Thread

    As others have said, who are we to judge, but I don’t think it was for the “video hits”. If memory serves, it was somewhat related to the song that was played (maybe “Everybody Wants to Rule the World?”) reminding her of her late mother and the images while on the ride felt “heavenly” to her in...

    News Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind attraction confirmed for Epcot

    Rode this a second time at a private party with a gin and tonic, bourbon and Diet Coke, and shot of bourbon in me…but in the third row instead of the second to last. HUGE difference in my reaction to ride. Could it have been the alcohol? Sure, but I figured that would’ve made the experience...

    News Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind attraction confirmed for Epcot

    Generally curious if there is first hand experience of someone feeling disoriented in the back of the coaster, but feeling relatively fine if riding in the front? Just wondering if that really made a difference to anyone.

    Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind SPOILER Thread

    I echo nearly everything you said (and I echoed you in another thread already). I’m in my early 40s, sat in the second to last car, and, like you, felt disoriented, but not nauseous on the ride. But it was uncomfortable enough that I don’t know that I ever need to go again. It needed starts...

    News Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind attraction confirmed for Epcot

    I agree. Rode it for the first time today and it may very well be my last time. I didn’t feel sick on it or after, but I did feel “uncomfortable” because of the disorientation like you mentioned. I was ready for it to be done by the time I was spinning around the planet at the end. The...

    Are park reservations going away?

    As I sit on a beach near my hometown typing this, wanted to comment that we had planned a spur of the moment Disney trip this week with some different members of the family to take advantage of annual passes. Two weeks ago for the non-pass holders, only park available was Epcot. So no trip...

    News Splash Mountain retheme to Princess and the Frog - Tiana's Bayou Adventure

    Haven’t read through the bulk of the recent posts on this thread, so apologies if this timeline was known, but Anika Noni Rose was on Live with Kelly and Ryan this morning and spoke about the redo opening in 2024. There was no clarity as to whether this was for DL or WDW (or both). Even though...

    Are park reservations going away?

    Or they could just remove the reservations entirely. Disney has done a lot of things I don't like lately, but the reservation system is the worst, in my opinion. The fact that I'm staying onsite, paid for my tickets, and, theoretically could not have gone into a park the first week in May...

    Are park reservations going away?

    Have been at Disney for nearly two weeks -- went into the park 10 days. Saw nary a single survey cast member in the parks. (Did see one at Disney Springs one afternoon.) I was desperately hoping to give them a piece of my mind about Genie+ and particularly the park reservation system. Just...

    News Walt Disney World to resume sales of Annual Passes (New sales resume April 20, 2023)

    I rarely post here, but this proved to be my last straw. I recognize that it’s our fault for not making the purchase earlier, but as DVC members going down in two weeks, we feel pretty slighted by this news out of nowhere. Three of our party have AP’s, three don’t and were going to order them...

    Wolfgang Puck Express at Disney Springs permanently closed?

    It was a tradition of our family to go for breakfast AT LEAST twice a trip and then tour the Springs in the morning when it was considerably less crowded. This genuinely has made me really sad. No more corn flake French Toast and fantastic breakfast pizza in a fast casual environment. Anyone...
