Going to hijack this thread with my own stupid question. Full board meal plans is a lot of food but better value than half board. However we now get given our magic passes a few days earlier, can we use one of those the night before our stay (e.g. in disney village) We typically get a cheaper...

Streetmosphere? Did you all miss the strikes last autumn?

Nah offers are a thing of the past. My last trip pre covid was £1,500 for a family of 4 (the 5th was too young and free), 3 days 2 nights in Disneyland hotel, breakfast and dinner each day, character dining each one. The offer was 25% off and free meal plans, and this was early September so...

I always get meal plans although I think they were better value before than now (often with special offers - pre covid meal olans were free ifn the hotel was booked 6 months or more in advance). It's a much better experience to pay in one go and relax when there than get ripped off 2-3 times a...

The other part of your question - there will be a symphony of colour parade show in the main park. The last 2 (dream and shine brighter and jungle fever) were great. Paris is good for shows.

Ok so I'm far from an expert compared to some on here but can probably help you out; Firstly queues for characters in disneyland paris are enormous. Partly because you spend more time with them, have a full interaction etc and partly because Europeans love characters (and there are less rides...

I'm clearly in the minority but not fussed about this gushing over MSE nostalgia. I preferred the 30th anniversary pre show The drones / pyro combination has massive potential though

Paris desperately needs a flying theatre, and that is an excellent point on languages. Not a huge avatar fan but you have sold it to me better than anyone else so far. My main concern is the aesthetics of having it on a lake next to Arandelle, it feels like something that needs to be walked...

I really like the idea of a lion king ride and a pride rock facade visible from the lake, but where does something officially become a "land" if all it brings is a facade and a ride inside it then it is no different to the matterhorn or a haunted house. I think this would actually work (more...

Maybe the reason for the massive price increases was to try and avoid triggering the 3rd park contract, but to their surprise they kept selling tickets

I was lucky enough to stay at the old DLH, a family of 4 (5 actually but one was under 3) for 3 days 2 nights, plus 2 breakfasts and 2 dinners - all character dining - in school summer holidays was just under £1,400. I don't think we will ever see close to those prices again. Thinking back to...

I've got 3 days booked in February. Last trip was April 22 the weekend that became fully operational post covid (characters close up, no masks etc). I have to admit I partly booked it because dlp 30 stuff was great and whilst we could have done that again i thought the disney 100 would be...

Yep, I would say what is unique to dlp is the scenery, the space, the campus feel and the reduction in rides. For some people all these things are meh or positive and for some all are meh or negative. Cast members and food are mostly hit and some miss in all the US and European parks in my...

I should add; disney hotels in USA (either, both) are an absolute fortune. So whereas character dining or disney hotel always seemed like a pipe dream maybe I'm just pleasantly surprised I can do it in Paris without selling a kidney

Out of interest you clearly compared 2 nights vs 2 nights but were both 3 days? For me a lot depends on if you make full use of the 3 days. We get a local hotel the night before and actually in Feb got a decent deal at davy crockett. So half a day on that pool and then drive to sequoia the...

In my experience disney hotels really aren't expensive, once you've added costs of tickets etc. We usually find a budget hotel under 20 min drive the night before and after so we get the full day for each ticket. The main benefit of staying in a disney hotel is walking to and from the hotel...

It seems to have reached capacity at least 30 times over the last year, despite large price increases. Whilst AP are going up, if you price up a hotel stay and park tickets I think most will find that has gone up by even more %, like for like. You used to get a 20% discount AND free dining if...

The existence of the lake is promising as it shows the park will be big enough to be compared with other disney parks at some point in the future. 3 clear expansion pods which when full will have nearly doubled the park. But then the actual new stuff we are getting, still 2 years from now...

I think the park now can just be seen as an overflow of parc disneyland. If there is a ride they want to build but it wouldn't fit (space or theme) in the big one they just toss it over the fence. I like DCA. The way the ticketing works in california I rarely get park hoppers, so I'm stuck...

May have been unlucky, my last visit Jack Sparrow caught my eye doing an in character run across the bridge on adventure Island. 5 min later we were talking to him sitting on a rock - no one else appeared for 5 min. Saw him later walking back through fantasyland, interacting with rapunzel and...
