    Crowd Noise During Pre-Shows

    Here now and was worried after reading so many things but-Guardians twice, HM twice and no talking in preshows (or very low with parents trying to reassure little ones) and.no pushing thru Guardian doors early. Which was great as we hadnt done guardians. Overall havent even seen many rude...

    Halloween Horror Nights 2023

    Be sure to mention this on the survey they send. With such long lines this would be a great idea! Isn’t this the RIP tour? We went with our party and line was paused a bit but I think you are talking more of “pulsing” with slightly larger gaps between parties? There’s was one year where the TMs...

    Grand Floridian not as grand as I would have thought.

    We had ducks at quiet pool at Grand Flo and security and lifeguards herded them out. Even then had to tell some kids to back off and not get in way of security tryin to get the ducks out. By contrast at Universal hotels I’ve seen lifeguards come down very sternly on kids who don’t listen to...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    This out of town guest prefers the high tier AP that gives express after 4, and free one night of HHN. Hope pricing isnt too insane with Epic

    No idea what I'm doing.....

    One other tip-especially if you want to drink something other than water-get a couple of the refillable freestyle cups at the park (different than resort mugs) as you can re-activate these daily. If you like lemonade, soda, Gatorade, teas it’s nice to have. There are freestyle stations all over...

    Universal Studios new disability pass

    Accommodations are made. If you need beyond those then you need to demonstrate why, so business can determine what works for you. Example: elevators provided for those who cannot do stairs. Now say you have “severe anxiety” and cannot ride in elevator with other people-why shouldn’t you have to...

    Grand Floridian not as grand as I would have thought.

    2019 stay at GF was horrible-even after repeated calls to front desk/housekeeping/maintenance it wasn't until last day we got moved rooms. Something was leaking HORRIBLY through bathroom wall into room. The resort solution? bring in huge fans. Um no doesn't work if you need to be in room to work...

    Had a chance at DVC way back in 1991 as DCP- alas couldn’t afford the $50? $60 bucks a month. Ah if only I had a Time Machine…

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    I book cruises a couple years out. Cruises were still pretty cheap at that time-our cruise this august was booked year and half ago. Drury Inn in Disney springs had rates ~$154/night for august (and no resort fee, free good breakfast and an evening reception on par with club level at theme park...

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    However Uni offers an AP with EP after 4 built in. We’ve had these for years which allows us to stay offsite (timeshare) and still go and ride everything during busy times. Plus the free HHN ticket. Plus the free valet parking. Plus the better discounts. Love Cabana bay but Sapphire Falls is my...

    DVC rental for trip 2024

    They certainly can be a “ripoff” yet still cheaper than cash rental directly from Disney. One of the places was offering insurance and ability to cancel/change last time we used them (although this was precovid so who knows now!) Another option is TUG rental place or redweek to see if there is...

    News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

    And took what? 4 years? Meanwhile Velocicoaster built in just over 2 years? Something to be said for "controlling" your own destiny. Whoa! common sense?? So that is the least likely thing to happen-although I would LOVE for Disney to propose this to shove in governors face: after all he is...

    Halloween Horror Nights 2022 (Sep 2 - Oct 31)

    And it may turn out to be a sleeper hit of a house. Just because YOU don't get it doesn't mean he doesn't have a huge following who may discover HHN for first time due to this headliner.

    Halloween Horror Nights 2022 (Sep 2 - Oct 31)

    Yeah go ahead and say that after you've been held up in Stranger things for 2nd time due to a terrified kid-because the parents thought it'd be like Disney & the kid liked the show (Mind flayer room was awesome). Or the poor infant carried through these very very loud houses. Or the parents...

    Lost my lanyard/pass at Uni on the Mummy a few years ago. GS had it the next day. Already had the card replaced but really wanted my lanyard pins. Great GS experience. That sounds amazing!!!! We did 2 weeks in Hawaii this summer for less than a 6 day disney trip would have cost. Timeshare...

    Halloween Horror Nights 2022 (Sep 2 - Oct 31)

    ST was more of a fans desire/wish than a 'sure thing' They announced Monsters Collide, Blumhouse, Halloween earlier this summer so at most they had 2 IP to announce (and it was long rumored one was The Weeknd). Evil dead was pulled due to movie release being delayed. So we've got 6 originals...

    Islands of Adventure vs Magic Kingdom

    I'd say MK just for sheer number of attractions, lands and overall feel However IOA has arguably better themed land than any in MK with Hogsmeade, and one of the best coasters in country with Velocicoaster. Ask again in 3 years when Epic Universe is finished...

    Which Hotel to stay at , and length of stay (Christmas)

    Don't forget to take time for the shows as well! Yes you can run through all the rides in 2 days with Express, but you will miss some neat things. Grinchmas show, photos with grinch, the extensive Christmas theming (Seussland at Christmas is my favorite), the Horror make up show, Bourne...
