    Magic Band and Lost Kid

    I totally agree. a 12-year-old is in fifth grade. That kid should already have learned a phone number and has enough sense to recognize and address a Cast Member. That kid can be home alone and supervise younger kids.

    Magic Band and Lost Kid

    Since your child is 12, let them have their phone in the park, or alternatively make them wear a watch. Let them go off and enjoy their day with instructions to call or meet up with you every 2-3 hours. A 12-year-old can easily keep up with this ask. I was 8 when I first visited (around '86 as...

    Ton Newton - Out

    Remakes of existing movies are definitely an issue. First of all, I have seen these movies already (several times). I am not at home so I can't log in to D+, but I would bet that the animated classic is available on D+ already. Why pay for a trip to the theater when the original is already...

    Can you enter MK at 4pm with just your MNSSHP Ticket?

    Just so you know what you can expect at the park entry point, Cast Members will set up a corral (of sorts) for all party guests. As you face the train station, the party guest entrance will be on the right-hand side. Prior to 4:00 PM there will be a lot of party guests that arrived early in the...

    Logistics advice- changing hotels and getting to the park

    You could also drive your family to EPCOT for rope drop. Parking is free for resort guests - which you will be one that day. Just drop them off and go to the hotel, if that is your plan. Or stay with the family in EPCOT and go back to the hotel whenever.

    News Disney Dining Plan Returns in 2024

    As others have said, since it will be your honeymoon, I can totally see leaning on the convenience of the DDP. There is value to be had for not thinking about food prices and math when you are trying to relax and be in the moment; especially after planning a wedding. If you or your partner ever...

    News Disney Dining Plan Returns in 2024

    The hate you sense about the DPP comes from people's personal experience when trying to make the DDP work for their family. Generally speaking, we don't want to overpay for our meals simply because we prepay for them. So what the system does, is make guests do homework on what their family would...

    News V.I.PASSHOLDER Days Coming in June at Walt Disney World

    So the exclusive area is in the middle of the cafeteria seating? That doesn't seem all that great... I was expecting somewhere in the park where there is not much available seating and somewhere secluded. But no, all of the non-AP peasants get to see the glory of me sitting in the cafeteria...

    News Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Permanently Closed Fall 2023

    I don't know... I feel like the only real appreciation for the prequels comes from the memeing community; much like Toby McGuire's Spiderman. The fan base is really just a meme community. The movies, if you watch them, are just no good, badly paced, and cringy to watch.

    Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

    The goal should be to simplify these terms/concepts: Genie Genie+ Virtual Que Lightning Lane Individual Lightning Lane ( aka Individual Attraction Selection) Those concepts are convoluted to a first-time visitor and difficult to explain to people. If Josh thought park pass reservations were too...

    News Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Permanently Closed Fall 2023

    I hear ya, but I mean... if you hadn't worked there, would you have (or could you have) ever paid to go see it? After the first voyage, the entire experience was spoiled online. Anyone that wanted to research what they were spending $5k on (and who wouldn't research what they were buying with...

    Gideons Bakehouse??

    To avoid the queue, you want to be there first thing. Earlier than people would normally want to eat a half-pound cookie. The virtual queue works fine. If you are going to be in Disney Springs for anything else other than grabbing a cookie, walk up, join the virtual queue and go about your...

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    The entire story was spoiled to the internet after the first voyage. Why do I, a Star Wars fan, need to spend the $4.7k to stay on the ship when I already know the story from every angle, virtually explored the room, seen the ending (the outcome seems to be set), and the merch?? I am not going...

    Have you stayed at Pop Century but wished you upgraded?

    Great point! I had never thought about it, but you are right.

    New Roundup Rodeo BBQ sit-down restaurant coming to TSL

    I still don't understand all this hype for terrible Florida BBQ. Disney didn't get Eagle Smokehouse right, this will probably be worse.

    Have you stayed at Pop Century but wished you upgraded?

    I don't enjoy hotels with internal bus loops, so I will never stay at CBR again. Give me POP any day. Great vibe, great food court, great music, colorful and full of energy. If you are going to spend money, just stay at the Grand Floridan. It is the only hotel that interests our family outside...

    News Mickey’s Copyright Adventure: Early Disney Creation Will Soon Be Public Property

    Yes, the school's theater department pays for the usage when they purchase the scripts to share out to the actors. That is how it works at that level. Those plays are part of a common pool, and the person that owns the rights to a play gets paid out all the time. As far as the copyright issue...

    News ABC and Disney Parks Christmas Holiday specials 2022

    I am getting old. Apart from Run DMC, I don't know who any of those names are, and some of them I can't even pronounce. I don't think I will be tuning into this when my family comes for the holidays. But not everything is for me. /Shrug. I am just a paying customer.
