Here's a snapshot if someone did not get the AP email.

Darn. I just want to book it for early June for my dad, husband, and brother.

I stayed on the fifth floor above the lobby and across the bridge. We booked a standard studio, but received a room that had a view of the animals in the sunset savannah, which is not the main savannah. We saw giraffes, ostriches, the big-horned cattle, and other animals, so we were happy. I...

I get that some people are resistant to change, but geez, It is just a store. It serves it purpose and I guess I am not as invested in the historical aesthetics and backstory that others are going on about. As a casual customer, I am happy there is more open space to get around as I found...

I used to get it free with my annual pass and half the time, the rides did not register us. It got people around us, so I have a good amount of pictures of random people or I just did not get any photos. Our magic bands were new, so that was not the problem. Saying that, it was nice to have...

Darn. They aren't going to have a chocolate-dipped pineapple anymore (at least it is not on the list). I rather pay for a sundae at the ice cream parlor (mint chocolate chip with peanut butter sauce is an awesome combination btw).

🎄 🎁 90 Days! I didn't even realize it until I saw my countdown ticker. 🎁🎄

I have been using my card from 2019 and no one said anything to me about it. Like you, my AP is current. I just finally got a new card in June since I renewed in person. I'll have to remember to switch them out.

There are laundry facilities at all of the resorts, you just have to pay (I think $3 per wash load. I cannot remember for dryers as I haven't paid for it since Fort Wilderness). The only time you do not have to pay is if you book a Villa through a DVC member or book an one-bedroom or higher at...

OKW=Old Key West. I live in Ohio, so my AP was one of the most expensive at the time. I do understand not having the extra time to drive. We only drive when we have the extra time to do so. I am a teacher and my husband is a school bus driver, so we can only travel during Christmas and...

I am going to be at Disney Dec. 18-27. I rented a DVC studio at OKW for $1800. I am a Platinum AP passholder, so ticket costs are hard to figure out. I paid about $3,000 at the renewal for my family of three. We're making two trips that total three weeks during our AP year, so I will say...

I'm cheap. I give my son $25 per trip to spend. Of course, he has been 15+ times and he is 13 now and doesn't want to buy a lot of merch anymore. The last trip he bought an orange bird straw hat. My brother budgeted $175 per kid for his week-long trip (He has four). It was my nieces' and...

Yep. I want the Haunted Mansion Loungefly mini backpack that sells for $75 and currently is only available in the parks. People are reselling them for $120+ plus shipping. Some of these people proudly flaunt that they are AP holders and some of the items (not Loungefly) that they are selling...

I agree. I also think "value" for each person is based on location and family size/make-up. When my sons were younger, we liked staying at Poly a lot due to the proximity to Magic Kingdom. Now, Poly is getting more expensive, we have branched out. I thought I would love Wilderness Lodge, but...

I booked my DVC rental back in early May and even then the only resort that had full availability for a studio was OKW. I booked Dec. 18-27. There were some confirmed reservations available, but the prices were astronomical due to it being Christmas week. I was able to get someone who didn't...

I believe so. In June, as I was leaving Hollywood one time to go back to my resort, I got a boarding group during the 1pm booking. I was leaving the park and on a surrounding highway at the time. I had no problem booking it.

That is when I started booking through DVC. The price comes about a little bit more, but it is worth it.

The only time I stayed offsite was my first time going to Disney as a kid. Since I returned as an adult, I have stayed at moderates then progressed to villas only. I love AKL's ambiance and it was particularly great to stay at Jambo when they reopened in July 2020. I barely saw anyone and it...

I have never had a park hopper plus ticket, but when Disney used to give four free tickets per reservation for mini golf, I used them a few times. We just showed up without a reservation. We didn't have to wait long at Summerland, but did have to wait about 30 minutes for Fantasia. I don't go...

They should be checking you in by viewing your ID then and then verify your reservation that way. In the past, one was able to visit a lot of the different resorts to just walk around or "view" them, but since they reopened, they have been a lot stricter (at least in my experience). When I...
