    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    That's pretty common in many industries, my chemical company always puts out statements like "we had a poor year" we only brought in 800 million. Lol usually it's used as an excuse why we weren't getting raises

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    Lol, I guess I travel differently. Just got back from Spain. Air and hotel was 4k and it was just me, 7 days. I probably dropped another 500-600 on food. I'm in lagos Portugal for 5 days in August. Air and hotel $2800 for 1. No food or transfers yet.

    Bounceback Offers Return to Walt Disney World

    Lol why are discounts "sad". Lol wdwmagic, the only place where people complain about the cost, then turn around and complain when there is a discount 🤣 Personally, I'm used to be a "frugalista" so I'm on team "full steam ahead with all discounts "

    Bounceback Offers Return to Walt Disney World

    And absolutely nothing wrong with that. My brother retired to Vegas hid granddaughters unfortunately live in NYC. Every other year he takes them to the fairygod mother tea at the grand Floridan for a ridiculous price, some thing like 600 bucks for 3 girls. But he claims the memories and joy...

    I don't know Lilo, now my sampling pool is pretty small. My family, friends and a my two neighbors. NOT one of them goes into debt going to disney. Have people forgotten the old fashioned thing call "save". My sister in law takes her kids about every other year. She literally has a savings...

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    and that's the beauty of variety. I need way more than a clean hotel and I refuse to stay anywhere that does not have a full service restaurant and bell service. I think for me vacations are my escapes. When I worked, I was the 50 hour a week working gal, along with the normal life stuff ...

    From landing at MCO to WDW check-in - How bad/variable is the Orlando traffic in the evening on any given day?

    and of course what you are use to might influence how you feel. I'm use to nyc traffic :D:eek: Im a happy camper anytime I get over 20 mph. Like @Figgy1 our travel day we usually spend at Disney Springs and at walmart getting supplies for the rest of the week. I know the weekends use to be...

    Ditching Disney

    A banana?? 😃😀 obviously mean for a 25 minute snack. Usually I don't change my eating patterns just because I'm away, if anything I want to eat better than I do at home, so yes when we went to London, my at the time 15 yo and 13 yo teens were not getting by with a piece of fruit. Anyway...

    Maybe one reason folks are still going to WDW

    I don't know Sir, we started going to ocnj almost the same time as we did wdw. We loved it because it was a dry town and wildwood was a little to rowdy. Rented the same spot at 21st and central, right around the corner from uncle bobs. Used to get a 2 bed 2 bath 800 wk. We thought that was...

    Maybe one reason folks are still going to WDW

    We are actually going to try Rehoboth this year. The place I rented for years in OCNJ topped out at 3500/ week. Not doing that and it was still 2 blocks to beach

    Maybe one reason folks are still going to WDW

    I think one of the reasons I'm never shocked at Disney prices is because I live in the "high as heck" Northeast. Shore rentals are insane. Lol saw this article in the newspaper. https://www.inquirer.com/business/tourism/jersey-shore-rentals-price-increases-vacation-20230613.html “If I’m going...

    I think “The Magic” is mostly gone for me…

    They won't and nor should they. Time marches on, I have found that pining for the "good old days" rarely is good.

    I think “The Magic” is mostly gone for me…

    Uhm no, . That isn't how it works 😃 unless of course one is the inventor of the thing. To start with, and this is a serious question who determines the quality of a ride? And what parameters are used? Okay what was the topic?

    News Disney Dining Plan Returns in 2024

    you'll be absolutely fine. My family is kind of weird in that for some reason we don't eat on vacation like we normally do. We usually go to wdw in september and it's still pretty hot. so we tend to only want one big meal a trip. As @Kingoglow mentioned "value" comes in different forms, one...

    Unpopular opinions about the parks?

    for me it was the cast member interaction. OMG, it was so cheesy and we always seemed to get "THAT" special cm who seemed so annoyed that they even had to do some parts
