    Tipping is this fair ?

    One thing to keep in mind, if you choose not to tip on the entire bill, is that some of the participant restaurants at WDW have heinous tip-out policies. I can name at least one where servers have to tip-out the bartenders, sommeliers, bus boys and server assistants on a percentage of sales, not...

    Magic rescues Royal Caribbean passenger!

    NCL, for sure, is testing overboard detection systems. I can't find any references to DCL testing them so I don't think that they are.

    Magic rescues Royal Caribbean passenger!

    Couple of things... The author of the article is deliberately omitting part of the law in order to bolster his statements. The act, as written and passed states: Passenger vessel security and safety requirements (a) VESSEL DESIGN, EQUIPMENT, CONSTRUCTION, AND RETROFITTING REQUIREMENTS.—...

    Goodbye BAH!!!

    Yes, I heard from someone at DHS that would know that the BAH will be replaced with a permanent stage. There was no word from them whether it would raise and lower from the ground.

    Sliver Passes And Magic Bands

    No, the Silver Pass guest passes can not be linked to a Magic Band. However, the CM can pre-book FP+ for the guest passes through their MyDisneyExerience account. Also, FP+ can be made using the guest pass cards once in the park. I don't know if the CM has to be with you to park hop on the...

    Stories of leaving the parks after New Years Eve

    They left Epcot right after Illuminations. So figure it's 12:30 to 12:45 before they returned to their car. However, you are correct in that if you stay in the park as long as possible then you'll be waiting in your car for a relatively shorter period. My advice, if you're going to do a park...

    Stories of leaving the parks after New Years Eve

    I've only ever done NYE at Epcot as a resort guest at the Epcot Resorts (which is what I would wholeheartedly recommend). But... my friends that have come in as day guests have told me that they were not able to leave the parking lot until 3 or 4 in the morning. Yes, it can be that bad getting...

    visiting Disney with a seizure disorder

    Stop by Guest Services. They should be able to provide you with lists of attractions to avoid. Also, any attraction that uses flashes or strobes should be clearly marked at the front of the queue.

    Jungle Cruise Boat Dimensions

    I don't think that there are dimensions on that diagram. However, if you make a few assumptions (ie height of poles from deck to canopy) you can figure out the rest of the dimensions. It won't be perfect, but it'll be fairly close.
