WDW CS have two kinds of pizza - cheese or pepperoni. That's it. I recall more selection in the past. By contrast, Disneyland CS have several choices of pizza. Is this a result of the DDP? Or is it a contract Disney has with Puck and others to stay away from fancy pizza? I'm sure it's all just...

Again, it depends. I don't drink Coke, just water. Maybe Perrier or San G - but that's extra. And dessert every night at a TS? I'd rather have an appetizer some nights - again extra. Saving money has two components. First, can you get the same for less money? Second, can you get more for the...

Interesting. I thought it might be different now that tipping is not included and the waiters have motivation to provide good service.

I wouldn't think the DDP would have much impact on the Steakhouse, Artist Point, California Grill, the Bistro or V&As. The first three are Signature Dining (two credits) and thus less frequented by those on the plan. The latter two are not on the regular plan at all. If anything, they would have...

But don't you think they'll raise the retail prices as well? Perhaps they've already done so. Thus when you're comparing, the $47 will still seem like the same deal relatively speaking.

Isn't it a wash though? For free dining don't you have to pay rack rates? And with a discounted room you can buy the dining plan. It sounds like it all works out the same.

Yes, so much depends on how you use it. For us, TS means Citricos, Jiko or Artist Point, all Signature Dining. Or when we go to Chefs de France we order appetizers and Perrier, which are not included. And I've never understood the convenience aspect. How hard is it to hand the waiter your room...

One square kilometer is 247 acres. WDW MK is 107 acres, I believe. The writer is confusing the difference between the park itself and the resort as a whole.

M:S is okay. The pre-show is arduous and suffers from too much explanation, killing any spontaneity, and too many warnings. Having a recognizable actor spoils any illusion. The ride itself is similar to Star Tours (think about the sequence of events and you'll see that they are almost...

I'm basing this on recent family dinners where she can't sit still for more than 15 minutes. So I'm not seeing an hour at an EPCOT sit-down; and definitely not two hours at Citricos or Artist Point. They are staying at the YC so perhaps the clam bake, or the other good suggestions might work...

Mom is having a girl's only trip with my adult cousin, sister-in-law and four-year-old niece*. Other than Cinderella's, she said they are going cool on sit-downs with the fidgety niece in mind. But I know how much my Mom and cousin like nice restaurants, and I think they'll regret eating CS all...

The outdoor section of Lotte World (Magic Island) in Seoul has a very Disneyesque looking castle. The indoor section has a Jungle Adventure and a Sindbad ride similar to Pirates. The place is quite good actually.

Beihai Park in Beijing had a couple kiddie rides, including - if I recall correctly - spinning tanks and MIGs. That probably constitutes a park. This ordeal baffles me. I, and many others, said at the time that HK was a poor locale for a Disney park and that Shanghai was better situated. I...

Brilliant. This pretty much sums it up. You know, I rode the new Living Seas, and I tried to convince myself that it was good, but deep down I knew it was pathetic.

I agree with you Legalos. I first visited EPCOT at age 23 (not far removed from being a teenager) and was fascinated by rides such as Horizons and World of Motion. They were like science and sci-fi books come to life. A few years later I learned that EPCOT was "boring." This confused me. I...

But the dining plan is $40 per day per person, so it would cost you $120 per day for three people. So I'm not sure how you would save money.

Just curious. How much did the DDP cost you?

This reminds me a bit of an online bookstore. I see something at a brick and mortar store for $30. Then I look online and it says Regular price $50. Now $40. You save $10. This is common. How am I saving money when it's cheaper at this other store? The regular price is irrelevant. So if Disney...

No, I just looked at what came up. It's interesting though that for the Poly an expensive category room comes up, but for the WL the lowest price room comes up. Are they trying to steer you toward a certain room type? Disney is to blame for my error. They don't ask you what room type you want...

I guess it also depends on what you like to eat. If I was to have dinner at Le Cellier, for example, I would probably have the scallops ($23) and "moose" ($6). That's $29 of my $40. Appetizer would be extra and I wouldn't want a fountain drink. So that would be extra. And I'd have $11 left for...
