    What do you have to do to get a fastpass?

    Someone in the family probably has DAS (Disability Access Service) which is given for "hidden" disabilities that prevent guests from waiting in long lines (e.g. Developmental disorder, severe claustrophobia, chronic digestive disease, etc.) Guests with ECVs or wheelchairs will usually go through...

    Park Reservation System

    Does anyone know if today and tomorrow were refreshed, or only the 17th onward? Woke up at 7AM and checked on a whim, the whole month of May was green except for the 15th & 16th. My mom leaves on the 17th, I'm kicking myself for not being up earlier 😭 Assuming it refreshed around 6AM and today...

    News PHOTOS - Cinderella Castle at the Magic Kingdom to receive enhancements this summer

    Really? This is so disappointing. I remember hearing a while back that TDO were unhappy with the way the pink turned out, had my fingers crossed the color would be painted over at some point after the 50th decorations had been taken down.

    Gideon's Bakehouse coming to Disney Springs

    I've been so obsessed with these, I've been going once a week and buying a bunch to keep for the next few days. Definitely 100% worth IMO. Was hoping to feel the same passion for Everglazed but still prefer Voodoo by a mile.

    New Roundup Rodeo BBQ sit-down restaurant coming to TSL

    Totally agree with this. I think Disney's recent insistence on creating every land with the intention of "transporting" you somewhere (in the very specific, post-WWOHP sense) is starting to limit them. With certain areas like Pandora, Galaxy's Edge, etc. this approach makes sense. But I think a...

    News Disney College Program begins again

    At this point I've bought the FL Resident 4-Day ticket three different times so I could make concrete plans to go to the parks w/ visiting family and friends. Even when we're not blocked out (which is rare lately), reservations don't open up for CMs as early as they do for guests, so it's pretty...

    News Disney Park Pass System announced for Walt Disney World theme park reservations

    Definitely good to know, thank you! But it looks like that week in May is almost completely grayed out now so I hate to mess with it. We'll just have to stick with our plan to park hop to Studios and get her on ROTR some other time!

    News Disney College Program begins again

    Tossing some more anecdotal evidence into the ring here (not to discount the experiences of others, of course!), but as a CM currently working at the parks, I agree. I've heard some extreme horror stories from coworkers and have definitely encountered some rude guests myself over the past few...

    News Disney Park Pass System announced for Walt Disney World theme park reservations

    Were they really? ): I've been checking almost daily hoping to snag a HS reservation for myself & my mother for mid-May (14-16) but have had no luck finding one. I've been relying fully on the calendar. Is it not always correct? Kicking myself for missing out, since I was really hoping to get...

    D23 Epcot Forever Poster Series

    I want the millennium poster so bad. Pretty sure that one already dropped though ):

    Top 10 Rides in Florida

    I don't think the best of Universal would rank above the best of Disney for me, but I have yet to ride Hagrid's, and have a strong feeling it would be the first Universal ride to break my top ten. Spider-Man and Mummy are fantastic and would definitely make my top 15/20. FJ and Gringotts have...

    anyone have any REAL IDEA when Annual Passes will come back..

    I’m thinking an altered AP program will return once the capacity limitations are either eliminated or drastically reduced. IK a lot of people have speculated WDW APs won’t return until Disneyland has unrolled their new AP plan, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the two programs barely resembled...

    News New Changes Coming to the Disney Look 2021

    Sure, possibly. But you're still raising an issue that directly affects them (not guests) in a space where they're then pressured to agree w/ you, reassure you & take action on your behalf. Kind of similar to if you were to walk into GR and tell the CMs you think they're being paid too much...

    News New Changes Coming to the Disney Look 2021

    I get that, but I do think there’s a difference between a guest telling a CM “I’m not happy with the paint job on Cinderella castle” vs. “I’m not happy with the fact that you are now allowed to shave your head/paint your nails/get a tattoo/wear the appropriate costume for your gender/etc.” Not...

    News New Changes Coming to the Disney Look 2021

    I never once said CMs won't listen. I DID say that by approaching a GR CM with complaints about a policy that is in their own best interest (and which, again, has comparatively little to do with guests) you would be putting them in an extremely awkward position. And yes, CMs will hear you out...

    News Disney offering its Walt Disney World Cast Members a complimentary one-night resort stay ahead of the 50th celebrations

    Really? I would think we wouldn't be returning to normal standards for a long time.

    Why isn’t there resort-wide food delivery service on property?

    Agree with the logistics problems others have pointed out but if there was a way to make it happen I would definitely use it. I end up DoorDashing food to the resort at least once (often multiple times) every vacation and the trek out to the lobby in the evening always feels like such a chore...

    Walt Disney World theme park hours updates

    This is good to know, thank you! I'm in a similar boat, have family visiting May 13-17 and was only able to get Epcot and DAK reservations. Was really hoping to get my mom on Rise for the first time so fingers crossed DHS reservations refresh.
