    Unofficial Guide

    Yes, very good news for them! It's a great resource. I have the 2016 version but so much has changed since then and I'm helping a family of first-timers plan their trip so I knew I needed the most recent guide. I ordered mine in early June Agreed! No harm in waiting another week

    Unofficial Guide

    I was all ready to get my 2019 guide delivered today but just got an email from Amazon that I'll have to wait another week :cry:

    Park hopper newbie

    So let's clarify this : A water add on gives you equal number of admissions to the water parks that is on your base ticket. So if you buy a 4-day base ticket, you get 4 admissions to the water parks. Unless, of course you used one of the days on that 4-day base ticket to enter Magic Kingdom...

    DHS Toy Story AP Previews

    Disney made sure to get their social media influencers there bright and early this morning for paid advertisements. This part of the business is really starting to make me feel sick.

    Taking an Uber from on off-site hotel to an on-site one, possible?

    You can take Uber or Lyft wherever you like. If you are taking an Uber from off Disney property to the Poly, the car will drop you off at the main lobby of the Poly.

    First time trip planner - ever.

    I could give you my long-winded advice and it probably won't be too different than what others have written above me so I'll just give you this : Since it's your first trip. I'd recommend the Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World. The 2018 version is available on Amazon and the 2019 version is...

    January Trip Sat to Wed..Need Help!

    Yeah, that 5th day will go to waste. I'd advise against it. 4 days should be perfect. Are you staying on Disney property? If yes, are you renting a car or using Disney's Magical Express to and from the airport? Epcot doesn't appear to be a crowd pleaser with the youngins right now. It's my...

    Pop Century or Moderate

    I agree with most of the advice given. In my opinion, and others share the same, the choice between a value and a moderate depends, of course, on how much time you really intend to spend at your resort. If you intend on spending the majority of your days at the parks, then one of the Values is...

    Chip n’ Dale at Mickey’s Not So Scary?

    I met them at DHS this past April near the Star Wars Galaxy's Edge entrance. Not sure if they have a normal spot there but it was on their birthday so they may have been making special appearances for the day.

    How bad are the crowds after New Years?

    Yep, best to be prepared for just about anything. This past late winter experienced an uncharacteristically high crowds which blindsided a lot of people. It's basically a 'prepare for the worst, hope for the best' scenario with every visit.

    Not much of a planner

    I feel you. I didn't start 'rope-dropping' until last year, for the exact reason you stated! It's my vacation and I want to roll out of bed when I feel good and ready. But it is honestly a game changer. It was the weekend before Easter and I had walked into an empty Hollywood Studios. I didn't...

    How is resort parking billed?

    When you say that you have friends visit, are they staying overnight in your room or just day visiting? If it's a day visit, they won't be charged but if they are staying overnight, that will be considered an additional vehicle on your reservation. Check with the front desk about how this...

    Not much of a planner

    Just want to add, if you aren't familiar already, just download the My Disney Experience app and play around with it. Even if you don't anticipate using it now while you're planning, you'll be using it while you're at the parks whether it's to check the wait times, make dining reservations...

    Not much of a planner

    I second the travel agent suggestion. They're free and they LOVE planning your trips. Tell them your must do's and they'll try to make it happen. At the very least, the planning bit becomes someone else's headache. If not, I've booked my fair share of heavily planned trips and I've also booked...

    First Timers celebrating Birthday and Anniversary

    Dapper Day is no more crowded than a normal park day, in my experience. It's only for a couple of hours early in the day, people will take photos in the usual spots and then they leave. I checked the dates for WDW Fall Dapper Day and it falls on November 17th and 18th so I think you're in the...

    First Timers celebrating Birthday and Anniversary

    Mouse to Your House is a great gift basket service I've used! They have some pre-made baskets to choose from or they will work with you to create a custom and they'll hand deliver to your Disney resort.

    Driving from Buffalo, Sunpass?

    I've driven to and from Jersey multiple times. Never hit tolls in Florida. If you're coming from the airport, that's a different story. But the route you'll take from the North will bypass tolls. The unofficial speed limit on the Jersey Turnpike is 80 so be prepared for some speedsters through...
