Disney isn't the only popular vacation spot that requires advanced planning. I worked in lodging for Yellowstone National Park and it's a very similar situation. I've had plenty of people mad at me because they showed up wanting a day of hotel reservation only to find out that we had been sold...

I would keep checking. I was able to get my parents FOP for 01/09 and I also managed to get it for my husband and I on 01/21 and 01/26. It looked like they opened up more availability for FOP and 7DMT yesterday.

My Mom is on this package! She got an email last week that her bands shipped. I think they are supposed to arrive today. She'll be there from 01/07-13/2018.

My family never got hoppers when I was a kid. It was an expensive trip with the five of us so we always drove (from Michigan), stayed offsite, and did one park per day. We always did four day tickets so one park per day. With five, I'd look at doing one per day plus a second day at Magic...

Frollo, seriously. I rewatched Hunchback of Notre Dame for the first time a few years ago and finally realized how creepy, terrible, and evil he is. Hands down the most terrifying Disney villain. I would not want to meet him. Hellfire is a great song though!

48 days! It feels so close...and I can officially say we are going next month!

I worked in a non-Disney, national park hotel. When we upgraded someone to correct an error (third party booking errors and maintenance issues were our most common overbookings) I usually looked for notes regarding a special event- honeymoon, anniversary, birthday, etc. Occasionally I wouldn't...

We go for a meal or two (next trip we're doing Morimoto and Paddlefish) and to do some shopping. We really only visit shops with Disney merchandise though. World of Disney is probably what makes it a "must do" for us. Take away the Disney specific offerings and we likely wouldn't visit.

To be fair, those "digital cartoons" are pretty high quality (maybe minus Cars 2) and have wonderful characters. It's okay for younger generations to love the newer characters more. I grew up watching Disney movies of all sorts- the classics included. My favorite? The Lion King. I believe I...

So excited to see your report- especially since we will be there at the same time! I hope AKL is as wonderful as it looks! We've been considering renting points for our next trip at either AKL or Old Key West. I'm just so excited! We are both so close!

Thank you! I am very excited. :)

Post Fastpass Day Update: It is sort of surreal to me that our Fastpass day has come and gone- it was on my calendar for so long! Since the wedding earlier this month it feels like time is going by so quickly. We leave tomorrow evening to drive to Detroit and fly to my MIL’s house for...

Thank you!

First response is so important! I'm a former front desk manager and I learned quickly to never offer explanation for "why" something is happening. Like Florida and roaches, my hotel was inside a national park and we had mice frequently (our building was over 100 years old as well). Having them...

If this helps, I've stayed at AS Movies and had a really nice experience. Good staff, clean room, and never had an issue with the bus system. I agree though- I really hope Pop stays affordable!

It really comes down to personal preference. We usually driven to WDW in the past and then our car sits in the resort parking lot throughout our stay. I don't like having to worry about navigating or driving- especially after a long day in the parks. I've never had an issue with the bus being...

It should be interesting to see. We're staying at Pop in January and I feel the price is really reasonable. We're looking to make a trip during Food & Wine and are thinking AS Music because I can't justify almost $200/night for Pop. It's not that great. Even with gondolas, I can't see paying...

Thank you! Thanks! I'm sure it will go by fast- we have so much going on with the holidays between now and then!

Thank you all- it was absolutely the happiest and best day! Thanks so much! I think I was going for "saving the best for last" though I am very excited for Disney After Hours! :) Thank you! I don't think I've ever spent a day so deliriously happy. It just went so perfectly!

Just a couple of exciting updates! First, we decided to splurge and book tickets for the Disney After Hours event on the 26th (our last night). It was pricey but I am looking forward to some extra Magic Kingdom time before we leave. We also got married over the weekend! It was a completely...
