It would work well in Downtown Orlando or Winter Park. Downtown had Howl at the Moon for many years that was a popular spot. A lot of redevelopment getting ready to get going along Church Street with the Westcourt project getting ready to break ground with a new concert hall outside the Kia Center.

These are great selections to represent Orlando along with the existing Cask and Larder. The new terminal C already has great choices. Summer House has great food and atmosphere for an airport restaurant. Forgot for a minute that I was at the airport when eating there.

My kids can get a chocolate chip cookie that looks like that from the Publix bakery each visit for free.

This definitely expands capacity at the Magic Kingdom with the number of guests enjoying the cars and villain's attractions vs TSI and the Riverboat so that is a good thing. Also, I think this will help with parade viewing and the guests trying to get around those watching the parade from a...

How have the crowds been for the main viewing area? Do you have to get there early?

I think they are saving their super heroes for a fifth gate (ie. Marvel + Incredibles & Big Hero Six). I think a "Heroes and Villains" park would be a great 5th gate. I think the villains talk at MK is a decoy for something else they have planned to gauge interest.

It would be a great spot with the boardwalk theme for a locally-owned 4 Rivers BBQ that already has the 4R Cantina food truck at Disney Springs with a different menu - https://www.4rsmokehouse.com/

Watched the WDWMagic 4K video and this is a much better show than ROE. Stating that, I agree with the posts that state that the ROE musical score was hard to beat and that seems to be the main issue with any faults of the latest shows. Stating all that, I think that Disney should strongly...

This area was a lot more crowded during the day on June 21st. It may have been related to Juneteenth on Monday, June 19th that is now a three-day holiday weekend for many now. Peoplemover had a 25 minute wait around this time on the 21st.

Most of the standby lines we waited in last week were close to what was posted during peak hours and Avatar early-entry. The wait times were off towards the end of extended hours (ie. 7D was 20 minutes when it was posted at 45 minutes) and right after a rain storm closure but I feel that is...

From my standpoint being there for seven days last week, Disney did not appear to have any kind of attendance issues at the parks. Maybe they are no longer getting the post-Covid revenge travel and they are discounting again, but they were very busy. I agree with many others here that Disney...

Just finishing my final day of six nights at Disney visiting any of the parks for the first time during normal operating hours(I have done a couple of MK After Hours) in 10 years and the crowds seemed to be what I remember 10 years ago. Using G+ at all four parks, we were able to ride all of the...

US birth rates started going down around 14 years ago and have continued that trajectory so not as many kids in the population to take to Disney: https://theconversation.com/amp/us-birth-rates-are-at-record-lows-even-though-the-number-of-kids-most-americans-say-they-want-has-held-steady-197270...

Thank you for the responses on vq! Very helpful!

Side question: How long do you typically have to wait using the virtual queue once your bg has been called? Trying to decide between VQ and ILL for an upcoming trip.
