I was going to make a comment about the Topic, but I am not so sure that this is what this forum is about anymore. Are we still talking about Disney pay offer to the CM Union? or are we talking about branding, Scheduling, airlines, and the difference between tangibles and intangibles?

You need to also remember that the monorail at Disneyland was replaced with brand new trains in 2008. The trains at WDW have been in service since 1989. WDW did just spend millions of $$$ to upgrade the drive technology, but IMHO that is just putting ducktape over a bigger issue. The problem...

per the WDW website... "Day Guests Complimentary standard self-parking is available while enjoying select dining, shopping, entertainment, and recreation experiences at Disney Resort hotels." I have a feeling this means you will have to spend a certain dollar amount at the resort (and prove...

I can understand why everyone is so upset about this change. However, as a long time DVC member and a former CM, the only way they are going to change is when people 100% stop spending money at the parks and resorts. People can call, write, and complain, but it is going to do nothing until...

I have read what the announcement says, and I do not see anything about "resort fees". I think WDW resorts/hotels should be like every other major hotel in Orlando and other major destinations and charge everyone that wants to park at the resorts regardless of shopping or Dining (except...

Per the WDW Hub (I ask a resort concierge yesterday), BTMRR is scheduled to re-open on May 28. They also mentioned that the schedule is subject to change up to the time that the park opens that morning. :lol:

One thing that I have heard via a friend (Not a bus driver :rolleyes:, and not an hourly worker) that works at Busch Gardens, that they will offer free transportation from the train station to the park. If this is really true, I will be getting an annual pass for BG again. If I want to do...

They have said that it would be aprox $45 round trip from WDW to Tampa, and $65 from MCO to Tampa. I live REALLY close to wdw, and it still costs me a that in fuel in get to Tampa, plus it will be faster than driving I-4. It will also give me the option of flying in and out of Tampa (Flights at...

I believe that the original qoute that you are talking about was trying to stay that not only will you have the option of going straight to your resort, but also have the option of getting off the train, and going straight to a park, or DTD. The luggage piece of the magical express will still be...

Sorry about the mis qoute for Disney bus drivers. That was the starting pay last year when I looked into transferring to that area. There was a help wanted add in the the Orlando Sentinel either last week or 2 weeks ago for Mears; and it said starting with out experience was 12.33hr.

If I didnt enjoy working at WDW, I would have left a long time ago. Disney is always saying that they are competitive with the rest of the local industry. Which if want to compare Disney to Universal thats great. But I think that Disney expects a lot more out of the cast than what Universal does...

I am sure that sounds good to you, but my 3% equals .37 more an hour. Times that by 40 hrs, and you get $14.80. Keep in mind that I have worked at WDW since 2001 (after getting my B.S. in hotel Mgmnt). They also didnt mention that they want to raise health insurance by $12.00 a week. My $14.80 a...

IT'S A NEW RIDE!!!!!! It will be a Dumbo style ride with space craft from Lilo & Stitch!!!! I CANT WAIT!!!!!! :lol:

I am aware of the rumor of the IMAX going into Virgin, the reason that rumor keeps coming back is simple....pure size of the location. I have heard that the IMAX is going to a seperate location from the existing theater, and that the screens are going to be aprox 5-6 stories tall ( just like the...

If Apple or B&N take over the empty Virgin location, where is AMC going to build the IMAX theater at? It is listed as coming soon to DTDon the AMC website. I am more in favor of IMAX than any of the other options. Maybe Apple can have the Starbillas location?

I know that this wouldnt make $$$ since; but has anyone ever thought that maybe Disney is tearing down the wing, and isnt planning on building DVC. Maybe the new tower is going to replace to current tower,or maybe they are planning a large scale spa expansion at the CR, or maybe nothing out all...

Anything new at wdw is GREAT!!!! but I just wish that we could fix, update, and maintain what we currently have (and properly staff it) before we start building more stuff. I am all about keeping wdw up-to-date; but we have to start with what we currently have. I am sure that I am talking about...

Bring back the Birthday cake.... I never got a piece!!!! Just Joking :lol: :lol: :lol: :hammer:
