    Best Resort?

    Without a doubt, I would have to say my favorite resort is AKL. I can't help but get blown away by the majestic atmosphere of the whole place. Brian

    Best Resort Breakfasts???

    Chef Mickey's definitely gets my vote. I have yet to try Boma's, except for the dinner buffet. Cape May has a good breakfast buffet too, but no characters. Brian

    Valet Parking

    If you want to be extremely generous, you could give for everyday your car was in the lot, but $2 is fine. Brian

    Valet Parking

    Well since I don't work there right now, I can say, we weren't supposed to when i was there. Industry standard for retrieving your car from valet is a $2 tip. This is the same for when bellmen bring bags to the rooms, it's $2 per bag. The valets or bellmen at Disney do not pool their tips, so...

    Valet Parking

    Well, believe me, I tried to get the ball rolling several times, for the sake of the guests and the sake of the CM's I worked with to impliment a way to get rid of the $6 per day charge. The argument by the company is that it was put in to comply with the surrounding hotels, however, isn't the...

    Cheap thrill rides...Possible future?

    Hello again all, I just wanted to post some information I found out during my time working at WDW about such an idea as a thrill park targeted towards teens. Essentially, IOA was built with the intent to draw the thrill seeker, teenage crowd. Not to say that everyone that goes there is a...

    Cheap thrill rides...Possible future?

    Hey everyone, I'm going to throw a few points of consideration out to all of you. First, after working at WDW and participating in Guest Satisfaction Measurements quite often and taking classes in why Disney has and is still doing better than all the competition (from a financial...

    Cheap thrill rides...Possible future?

    No Way! Simple as that as far as I'm concerned. The construction of Disneyland in the 1950's and it's opening in 1955 marked a milestone for the theme park industry and never had a single roller coaster. Disney was tired of just having plain old carnival rides, which essentially is what a...

    Paul Pressler moves to the Gap!

    It will be interesting to see who they do put in the position. I hope they try to find someone who's been with the company a long long time. Both Al and Cynthia would be decent candidates seeing as they've both been with the company 30 or so years. I know Al just had his 30 year anniversary...

    Imagineering R&D Gone, Thanks To Eisner

    I honestly think that this is one of the things we at this board keep forgetting. Whenever we see news that Disney lays off this person/group or Disney does this or that, a majority of us, sometimes myself included, take it as a personal offense. Sometimes this offense is against someone who...

    Greetings everyone!

    Hi all, My name's Brian and I've just joined this club not too long ago. I'm still waiting on hearing officially from Disney whether I'm going this spring on the college program, but I just thought I'd introduce myself. I've been studying the Walt Disney Company, from man to mouse, for a...
