We're locked into a DVC rental for our next trip the first week of February, so hoping it manages to stay open at least that long. I'd really like to experience Frontierland as is one more time.

It varies so much for me. My most frequent trip is with my parents and sister (or one or the other). Those trips end up cheaper because we split costs. I'd say at most I end up paying $2,500 depending on the hotel (always onsite but usually a value, sometimes a moderate). When my husband and I...

My sister and I loved it - as kids and as adults. Though as adults it became our mission to create the ugliest/weirdest car possible (but always pink with either the sparkles or butterflies). 😅

Nothing was ever going to be Illuminations for me but I think this show does more right than it does wrong. I also don't think we could get better for Epcot with current leadership. We were there in person (really lucked into the timing of our trip): -Loved the narrator and preshow music...

My folks are there now and I'm helping them with Genie+ from afar. I'm currently trying to get them a better time for Peter Pan's Flight and it seems pretty simple. Select your original booking from the "My Genie Day" tab and there is a modify option. Can choose a different time for that ride or...

We have a trip booked for April with family friends and plan to go on that (tickets purchased two years ago now, so we need to use them). Unless we are super pleasantly surprised, we're taking a break for a bit. I was actually pricing out Universal for a trip in the fall and that seems most...

Our next trip is a long planned visit in April to celebrate a close family friend's high school graduation. It's our last shot at doing this trip with them, so we're going. We're also using tickets we bought in February 2020 that we never got to use. If it weren't for that I don't know if it is...

I'd be happy if they went back to standby only. Standby when others are using G+/LL isn't quite the same. And I can promise you never heard me complain about the previous planning. I loved that I could have a rough outline of our day ahead of time and not worry once we were there. Somehow the...

This just doesn't seem comparable to me. One early morning 60 days out where I can use my computer to book instead of a phone versus having to do the same scramble every single day of my vacation. As the person who plans for my family, I'm really not looking forward to having to do that almost...

What dollars are they competing with? The Child Tax Credit? Expanded UI benefits have been gone since early September. Getting regular state benefits is incredibly difficult depending on which state and the funds are low (my state maxes out at $362/week (equivalent to $9.05/hour), few qualify...

Yeah the lack of connection to World Showcase stood out to me. I really though they'd connect the chosen Disney music to each specific pavilion- then maybe have those pavilions light up or something? It just felt so disconnected! I realized I was never going to love it as much as Illuminations...

Feeling real unlucky! My favorite ride and our trips are booked late January and early April. Assuming we don't delay then again at least.

This seems really unpleasant for group travel with multiple families. We have a trip booked in April with some family friends (delayed from April 2021). Eleven people, four family groups with different budgets/priorities. If everyone does the Genie+ option, we could book those things together...

I'd agree with this. We enjoy other trips- national parks, visiting different cities, etc- but nothing quite compares to our Disney trips. We like being busy and having lots to do. We like that it is an easy place to travel with family (in that we can all do our own thing sometimes). It's just a...

In the past I've opted not to stay off property or at Universal because of the convenience of the Magical Express. This plus the elimination of Extra Magic Hours? I love being in the bubble but man even I have to look at that and wonder if it is worth it. I could easily book a Disney Springs...

We went a lot when I was little because my grandparents spent winters down there (from Michigan). The stopped doing that in 1991 and we didn't make it back again until 2003. Our next trip after that was in 2008. I was a Disney parks obsessed child too. Constantly watched the updates they used to...

We go often enough that I wouldn't rule out a May 2021 and Fall 2021 trip. I'm just not booking a second until I know we're able actually go. Plus I think the idea of two full years between our trips (Sept 2019 to Oct. 2021) would make me too sad right now.

We moved our May 2020 trip to December 2020 and now just moved it again to May 2021. We aren't really sure what it will take to bring us back but probably at a minimum longer hours. We have some dates in mind for Fall 2021 as well if we decide to move it again. I'd love for nighttime...

I'm in Michigan and we have masks required. Doesn't seem to matter. Grocery stores ask you to wear them but nothing is done if you go in without one. Some businesses no one, employees included, wears masks. My sister works at the local coffee shop and most of her customers don't wear one. My...

That wouldn't be ideal for most students long term. Two weeks? Sure. Even then you'll have varying success depending on the student and the circumstances. Plus you miss out on so much social and emotional learning when you aren't in school. I haven't been in a K-12 classroom since 2014 but at...
