I heard that since the cabins are trailers, they had to be replaced after x number of years. So renovations wasn't an option. By making them DVC, DVC pays for the replacement.

I live in the northeast. Flights are expensive for a family of 4 for just a long weekend trip. I could see us driving to VA for a long weekend. I won't do that for WDW as it's too long. However, the park would need to be comparable for me to replace long vacations. While this would allow me to...

I wonder if the project was never dead, but postponed. I believe the cabins needed to be replaced. So maybe the original plan was Reflections and then cabins. But with COVID they had to to replace the cabins first.

When they brought up the $50000 price tag (and that was pre-Covid), we just laughed. Then it was high pressure sales that we had to buy during that meeting or we wouldn't have a chance to come back again. If you are going to the presentation for the hotel deal, you just have to NOT go into that...

Yeah, it keeps changing from trackless like mystic manor, omnimover, or a boat ride (I'm not an insider, just me reading the various rumors). I wouldn't be surprised if it started as trackless, but they reduced the budget since they are funding a lot of different projects over next 5 years.

We stayed at Pop Century, but that was pre-skyliner and weren't a huge fan. We are now DVC, but Port Orleans is a moderate we might consider trying eventually, due to the ambiance.

Many of the Disney Springs hotels actually have buses that run throughout the day (at least last time we went). Hilton Disney Springs also has the overpass that connects to Disney Springs. For our first trip, in order to afford to go, we did a time share presentation through Hilton Grand...

I'm not sure I agree with this. When changes to Genie+ were announced earlier this year, quite a few people in this board kept saying they wished Disney went with Universal's system instead. Yes, less people would buy, but that is the goal.

So a few initial thoughts... - Depending on the price, I would likely buy it, especially for MK. It would allow me to get everything done in one day and even add in breaks. I am coming in from out of state and only visit 1-2 times per year. So my goal is to maximize my time and I don't want to...

They need it for Fantasmic.

Actually, this is likely tied closely to cabins. May be part of same trust, allowing Disney to lower dues on cabins (making them maybe easier to sell). I wouldn't be surprised if Poly sells out before Riviera as it does not have same resell restrictions and is on the monorail loop.

Not necessarily. They added additional dates for 2024 back in January. MK dates only went until April with the initial announcement. What is interesting is they announced the original batch of dates in October last year. They are almost 2 months early this year. I think they are trying to get...

Thank you!

I've been on vacation for a bit (we can all probably guess where) and haven't spent time staying up-to-date on this thread. Do we know any more details on whether Monsters is going in Muppets or Animation Courtyard?

If you want any special characters, people start lining up before the party.

I have taken the monorail at night. The rooms are being furnished and decorated and there appears to have been a lot of progress on the interior.

I have always thought the same thing. There was not enough IPs back in the 50s. Sleeping Beauty's castle was meant to advertise for the upcoming movie (I believe). There were many advertising companies in the parks.

I was thinking something similar, but I see Cars taking the rest of ROA too. They will likely need to put Maleficent's castle farther away from Cinderella's castle as to not take away from the view around Cinderella's castle. Otherwise, we would get another tiny castle like the beast castle. If...

But I wonder how much new attendance a new country would actually bring today. Especially in a time where it is so easy to see travel vlogs for any country in the world and traveling has become more of a hobby for more individuals. However, ai do wonder if D23 Brazil could bring a major Epcot...

It depends on Universal's strategy. Right now, it seems like there may only be one day at Epic Universe on most/all multi-day tickets to start. If this is the case, it may actually impact a lot of Universal trips in 2025 (including mine) and there may be more split visits. If they can open...
