    First-timer needing help with accommodation options

    I would suggest staying at Pop Century or another value resort. You probably won’t be in your resort much anyway except to sleep. That’s the way we are. :) We want to spend every moment we can in the parks. I would try to do one day at every park and maybe two at Magic Kingdom. I’m guessing...

    January or February

    We usually do Disney in November but this year we are going to wait until January or February. I was considering the week of January 12th but after reading other threads about lingering crowds from the Marathon and then MLK weekend I’m looking at alternatives. I was wondering if the week of Jan...

    EMH: Useful, worth it? Views?

    EMH are tricky. I don’t have experience with thanksgiving week so I’m not sure how crowded they will be then but they can be very beneficial. I think it depends on if you are a morning person. Most of the time I avoid morning hours because they are just a little too early lol and they usually...

    What is the cost of an average WDW vacation for 5 days and 4 people?

    We go to Disney every year. We are a family of four. We decide on how much we can spend that year first and then I work around that. If we have a smaller budget we go during free dining and for fewer days. If we have a bigger budget we go when we want, pay OOP for food, and stay a few days...

    Help With Our Plans!

    When we do five days we like to start and finish in MK. We do a day per park in the middle. We always do park hoppers as well for flexibility. I would keep in mind as you plan you can get more done in the first three hours the park is open than you will the rest of the day. If you are night owls...

    Table vs Quick/ Counter Service

    We do mostly quick service and add a few of our favorite table service restaurants. We’d rather have a longer trip than more TS meals (unless we get free dining!) Buffets aren’t really worth the money for us anymore since our DS is now counted as an adult. So we will pick one and try a few new...

    Busiest days of the week for parks

    I always spend hours checking all the crowd calendars. I try to plan our MK days not on a Saturday. I have also always heard Monday’s at MK are crowded for whatever reason. BUT usually we just end up doing our normal order with MK always first (and last), then followed by Epcot, AK, and HS. Then...

    Timing of meals

    We just have a bar or cereal in the room for breakfast. Then we usually eat around lunch right at 11. Then we have a snack around 1 or 2. For dinner we get in line around 4:30 so we can be seated and eating by 5. Then a late night snack if we need it. Eating earlier works well for us since we...

    Can someone explain pin trading?

    Pin trading is so fun and something everybody can enjoy! My husband and I started collecting in college now my kids love it as well! Each trip we buy a few pins love to keep that remind us of the trip. Like this time my oldest bought a Rockin Roller coaster pin since it was his first time...

    Would you give up Happily Ever After for a light Parade?

    Yes! It was one of memories as a child. I wish I could share it with my kids.

    Turning Down Housekeeping

    I asked because once we all got a stomach virus at Disney and needed more towels than normal. We are at Disney now and several of us have a cold. So we are changing out towels a bit more often than at home so we can cut down on germs :)

    Turning Down Housekeeping

    I ask because once we had a couple of us come down with the stomach virus while we’re were there and as we are here now, there are couple of us with a cold so we will change our towels a bit more often than at home as to keep down the spread of germs :)

    3 days at WDW with a 5 year old

    I think your plan sounds great! That’s exactly how I would plan it if I had three days. Although, I think pandora at night is pretty special. Ive heard people getting on FoP right before closing and having luck with shorter wait times. Just something to think about. Also, my son loves Epcot. I...
