    How do I book Magical Express on the app?

    I've used that website twice recently for flights that were booked after onsite reservations were made. They sent back an email confirming receipt of our request both times, but I can't say I didn't wonder whether we were going to have any issues when we arrived at the bus staging. (We...

    Park Hopping question

    Sorry to tag onto this but I have a related question and didn't want to start a whole new thread. We are going to run down to Orlando shortly for a long weekend. There is no park pass availability on one of our days -- are you able to park hop somewhere after 2pm if you didn't enter a park for...

    News Disney mask policy at Walt Disney World theme parks

    I haven't witnessed one of those kind of outbursts personally (yet...) but each time I hear about this kind of behavior or see it on the news, I'm grateful over and over again that so many frontline workers are still willing to continue ringing up groceries, swiping credit cards, and (because...

    How to Contact the Front Desk

    Yes, once you get to the consolidated front desk phone bank (however long that takes) they are local cast members and very responsive and good about forwarding your message. My grievance here is that it's very difficult to get through to the front desk at your own hotel, something I think most...

    News Reflections of Earth confirmed to be replaced by Harmonious

    I had seen a few pieces of it out there several weeks ago and I’m sure the night show will be great. But seeing all of it for the first time in the daytime today, that thing has truly become the biggest hunk of junk in the galaxy. I hope I can eat these words some day...

    How to Contact the Front Desk

    Yes that’s the number I used. I’m headed to the closest resort to ask a live front desk agent to pass the message to GF. (I’ve never been on hold for any hotel front desk employee before yesterday so I’m going on record that I’m super glad this isn’t anything urgent and I hope nobody else...

    How to Contact the Front Desk

    We’re at Grand Floridian right now and I’m over in the parks. The front desk cast member asked me to call in a piece of information to them this morning around checkout time about our baggage handling for today. I was on hold with the consolidated front desk services for 35 when the call was...

    Latest Updates to Park Reservation System?

    We were last at a resort/in the parks in February. We have AP's and were staying onsite, and we had no trouble getting the park reservations we wanted prior to that trip (and we had no trouble changing our reservation if we weren't feeling our reserved park in the morning.) We have a trip...

    Has anyone else received this email promo recently?

    We stayed in October, November and February and have an upcoming in April, all on AP 40% off rates. I'm sure this would be targeted toward people who don't typically book GF or can't access AP rates. GF nearly allllllways has availability, so I'm sure they'd like to fill it up a bit more...

    Would you splurge on a 1 bedroom villa for 2 sisters?

    It would be nice if the next renovations of Contemporary's queen/queen rooms somehow creates a split bath where each side has enough space to do what people do there without monopolizing the whole washroom. Or maybe they could add a stackable w/d in the end of the washroom that normally holds...

    Contemporary Hotel

    You could lose someone in the one-bedrooms over at BLT. They are huge. I still prefer a park view room at the main tower over BLT but there are just two of us, so maybe that's why? Contemporary is popular for walking to the MK, park-view (fireworks) rooms, easy dining access across the...

    Keister Coaster waterslide at Disney's BoardWalk Inn closing for refurbishment in October

    For sure. We've never stayed at Boardwalk, just ran as fast as I could past the creepy clown when walking between EPCOT and DHS. I think it's a huge improvement.

    News 2020 Taste of EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays

    An 82 cent discount on a Bavarian fondue if you're the right kind of ticket holder, in the right park, at the right time, in front of the right kiosk, paying the right way...kinda Scroogey. I don't know the term for the opposite of nickel and diming, but whatever that term is, this is that.

    Grand Floridian to Magic Kingdom Walkway

    Well, I'm THRILLED to see this walkway open but if they want to start work tomorrow on the sidewalk between Wilderness Lodge and Contemporary, I'll be there in 2047 to walk it.

    Grand Floridian to Magic Kingdom Walkway

    Close! It's looking close to finished now! Does it get any better than that???? We were there last week and part of the week prior, and it looked so satisfactory that I would have *definitely* walked on it had the opportunity presented itself. I know it's very, very risky to walk on a...

    Grand Floridian to Magic Kingdom Walkway

    Yeah, it looks like the turkeys are getting ready to celebrate Thanksgiving Day. What year is it? Oh, right around the turn of the century. And believe me, things couldn’t be any better than they are today. Isn't our new pathway a beauty? Look at that! Holds 50 people at once. It wasn’t too...

    Disney statement on Walt Disney World entertainment

    We would all need some heavy, heavy pharma if our employer was touting our joyful lawn frolics as an entirely new form of incredible entertainment suitable to replace an orchestra, stage show performances, musical dinner theater and streetmosphere. That statement was so sad to me.
