    Half a day early. What to do?

    ----------------------------- There is a bus stop at every Island area + one at Old Port Royale, so any Island section (there are 6 of them, with aprox 5-6 buildings in each) will have some rooms closer to the bus stops. There are buildings in each Island that are a bit closer to the bus stop...

    Dining Plan Help!

    An option that might be worth considering is an idea that someone on here suggested in the past, of putting the money you would pay for the DDP on a gift card - that way you could use it how/when you want for meals/snacks without being limited by what type of credits you have. It would still be...

    Half a day early. What to do?

    We have stayed at the Caribbean Beach resort (CBR) several times and love the atmosphere, plus the rooms there are a little bigger than the other moderate resorts, and it is the most recently refurb'd moderate, too. The main themed pool is really good, plus if you want to go for a quick swim...

    Need parking advice

    Also, if your room isn't ready when you check in that morning, you can go on to the parks & they can text you when it's ready. They may be able to give you what your room # will be at check-in, but I'm not sure - you can always ask them, especially if the location matters to you. And if you...

    Tips, tricks, lessons learned.

    If you have Disney rain ponchos (or end up buying them in the parks), if they ripped, you used to be able to take them to any spot that sells them (which, when it rains is almost everywhere) and they would replace them with new ones for you. I haven't heard it mentioned recently, so I'm not...

    Where to see wishes with the new Construction walls? :(

    It wouldn't be quite the same, and the castle wouldn't be in the background, but I think the statue of Roy Disney & Minnie Mouse seated on a park bench is not walled off. If it would be an acceptable second choice, maybe you could take the picture of you and your boyfriend with them??

    Pre-buying Tickets

    Yes, and it's a good way to save some money. But.... if you plan to stay on Disney property, the only downside I can think of (not meaning to be a "downer", just thinking through for an informed decision) - if you already have tickets, and a package promotion discount becomes available, those...

    Hidden Activities

    Last time we were there (Sept 2014) the Aladdin camel was still spitting. Also in Adventureland, the tiki statues spit. I'm not sure if you count the "games" that you can play in this question, but MK has Sorcerers of the MK, & Pirates game in Adventureland, and Epcot has the Agent P's World...

    Feeling overwhelmed with all the schedules...are ADR really needed?

    I agree with the suggestion to check the MDE app for dining availability while you're there - or you can also call WDW-DINE and ask them to check what is available for the day you want. With the 24-hr cancellation policy you may be able to get into places that you wouldn't expect, especially if...

    Best Drink On Property??

    If you don't want something "strong" but that is very tasty and tropical, the Maui Wowie at 50's Prime Time is really good. I've also heard the Lapu Lapu is good, but a family member told me that she thought it was pretty strong. Whatever you choose to try, hope you have a very Happy...

    Last minute upgrade

    Hmmm.....it sounds kind of fishy to me. Do you mean to upgrade your resort reservation package? I've never heard of any type of location like that. As you mentioned, I have heard of Disney upgrading your room, we even got one once when we checked in. And I know that you can ask about...

    7DMT INFO

    Sorry, I can't answer this from personal experience since I'm only 5'3", but I believe there is a "test car" available for those with questions - so they can try it out, rather than waiting in the queue only to find it won't work for them when they get to the actual ride. I know they have them...

    Park Hopper

    We like a park hopper for "longer" stays (like 5-6 park days), but recently we tried a 3-day trip without a hopper and it worked out very well. We already knew we weren't going to try to visit the 4th park, and there was plenty to do for 1 day in the parks we chose to visit. We did some things...

    Orbitz For Room---Can I still get Magicbands?

    Your room & tickets don't neccessarily have to be for the same # of days/nights. If you have a room+tickets package for the time when you will all be there together, everyone in the same room does have to have the same # of ticket days - and in that case, you wouldn't have access to your ticket...

    ordering kids meals?

    If you are not on the DP, as others have said, it shouldn't be a problem. Once while on the DP (and it was several years ago) I asked to order off the kids menu at a TS and thought they weren't going to allow it (which seems silly since they don't lose any money on that), but our server came...

    Disney without the dining plan

    Agree with dreamfinder about being able to order the entree without the side. We just got back last week and sometimes shared a combo meal....sometimes got one combo + one entree w/out the side, and shared the side if we were hungrier or really wanted different things. The menu boards usually...
