    WDW To Enforce FP+ Rules

    Oh it's even better than that. You don't even need to add her to your reservation, you just need to be friends with her on MDE. I recently found this out by mistake as we were meeting friends who are AP holders who live in Florida on our trip last week. We had resort reservations at 3...

    Tramway project and security relocation at TTC.

    What's the final disposition on the Poly path to TTC? Redirecting to the general TTC screening, or dedicated screening at that entry point?

    Tramway project and security relocation at TTC.

    Not to beat a dead horse, but multiple people have asked and I've yet to see a definitive answer: How will the security be handled for people walking to TTC from the Poly? Will there be a security checkpoint there? Or will we have to get in line with all the others coming from the parking...

    Replacement for Tomorrowland Speedway?

    Perhaps as a new E ticket, maybe? Maybe??? Then maybe say something else in Epcot's Energy building (instead of GotG)... that would be nice!

    AVATAR land - the specifics

    Don't forget the war on the possessive ('s). Frankly that's just a travesty.

    News Caribbean Beach Expansion

    You mean just like not washing dirty guest towels on a daily basis is "to save water and help protect the environment" and not the company's bottom line? ;)

    News Caribbean Beach Expansion

    I think it's more likely that Austin Commercial will be building the DVC portion. Looking at their portfolio they seem to specialize in big multi story hotels and arenas in Dallas and Houston. That would seem to jive with a planned tower. They might also be doing the gondolas too I suppose...

    News New Gondola Transportation - Disney Skyliner -

    So then can we expect the announcement this week or next? I have been wondering why Disney seems to have moved up all its announcements to now. It was widely speculated that AVATAR was going to be announced that first week of March when The View would be on property. Why announce at an...

    Ticket Price Increase starts this Sunday!

    I think they want to reward short stays to get many more price-sensitive, but ultimately high margin customers, that may have higher spending per guest due to buying more merch as they may not be coming back often(and are also less savvy so less likely to "utilize resources" such as rides...

    Ticket Price Increase starts this Sunday!

    Doing a quick analysis... the price differential between a DVC/FL resident Gold pass (good for most of the year except the holiday season and Easter/spring break) and a 7 day park hopper purchased in advance has never been lower in the 2010s, it's only $74. And a Gold renewal is $10 cheaper than...

    A Terror-rific Spirited 13th (ToT fans have lots to fear)...

    This, this x10^6. It is mind boggling to me how there is so much love shown to Disneyland, and they let MK just rot. Meanwhile, MK is really pulling in the visitors, and likely has had a bigger impact on people's love of Disney than Disneyland ever had or will. Don't get me wrong, I visited...

    Pandora opening date? - New Florida Resident Ticket w/AK Blockout Dates in May/June

    Well, it's not blockout dates for the AP, it's for the Florida resident 4 day Discovery ticket. There are no such blockout dates for the AP, other than what is usual for the different passes. But the cast member blockouts are quite interesting. Makes one think that the week before Memorial...

    High prices at the Arts Festival food kiosks (compared to other EPCOT festivals)

    My wife and I traveled to WDW for the long holiday weekend and our anniversary. Just so you know, I am a regular lurker on this site, don't post much, but have been extremely skeptical of all of TDO's offerings lately. I can honestly say this festival was done very well. We had lunch for the...

    Expanded dates for Highway in the Sky Dine around

    My wife and I are celebrating our wedding anniversary over MLK weekend, and unfortunately I missed out on booking the highway in the sky dine around by 1 day. So, I've been checking the website frequently for any possible last minute cancellations and saw that they now have availability most...

    Bob Iger: "‘We’ve got some pretty exciting things that we’ll be announcing over the next few months"

    See my previous post. Jobs got his comeuppance in the end. He really believed he could warp reality to his vision, unfortunately, cancer does not agree. I'm not saying the man wasn't a visionary, he was, almost as much as Walt was. Difference was, Walt knew how to work with others and how to...

    Bob Iger: "‘We’ve got some pretty exciting things that we’ll be announcing over the next few months"

    Heh, guess it takes one (Jobs) to know one. Jobs was so famously in love with his own ego that when he developed low-grade neuroendocrine cancer of the pancreas (islet-cell tumor), he was in denial about the diagnosis and chose to pursue "alternative treatments" when a simple surgery (partial...

    Spirited News, Observations & Thoughts IV

    Sorry, still wading through 40+ pages, not quite caught up. But, why is that? Disney *is* allowed to use Marvel in theme parks west of the Mississippi, no? And something is coming to innovations, no? Is it that they just want to focus on SW, full guns blazing? What if Ep 7 is no good...

    Spirited News, Observations & Thoughts Tres

    This, this.... a thousand times this! When I was a young child one of my fondest memories were the themed trash cans. I know it sounds crazy, but just going from one land to another and seeing a different can that had a different font, color scheme, etc in it was just amazing. Even the...

    Spirited News, Observations & Thoughts Tres

    No, no, no.... then it's cold! I have been to WDW twice now in the winter in recent years, January 2010 and December 2002. It was literally freezing, in 2010 in fact, there was a frost warning in effect and all the topiaries were covered up. I had to buy a ridiculous Mickey top hat to keep my...

    New Credit Card Security Check

    So speaking of POS POSs, why is it that we in the US seem to be behind the rest of the civilized world when it comes to handheld/wifi POS machines? I recently came back from 2 Canadian trips and I love these things. Not only are they faster and less cumbersome, but they make splitting a bill at...
