    A little gripe about reservations...

    I'll concede that making sure the people who are holding the reservation are the same ones who are modifying it IS important, but that can also be done online by asking the user to verify the confirmation number, require them to give part of the credit card no. used to make the reservation, etc...

    A little gripe about reservations...

    Because of my job and because sometimes I change dates of my stay to get better rates, I may need to change or cancel my reservations multiple times before an actual stay. I LOVE the convenience of the Internet to be able to make, modify or cancel hotel reservations. I have been able to modify...

    Contemporary rates for Sept...and no garden wing rooms?

    This is exactly the kind of room I was looking for, but the non-discounted rate I currently have is actually slightly less than that rate...go figure.

    Contemporary rates for Sept...and no garden wing rooms?

    Thanks for the response. Just to be clarify since I tend to ramble on... I do want to stay in the tower and my current reservation is for a tower room. I just thought it was very odd that no garden wing rooms have shown as being available for several months now--not even at a standard rate, and...

    Contemporary rates for Sept...and no garden wing rooms?

    I currently have a reservation for the Contemporary for mid-September. I made the reservation some time ago at a non-discounted rate, expecting there would be a significant reduction in the rate closer to our actual stay in September, and I would then update our reservation to that discounted...

    Which Ride...

    On our last trip a few weeks ago, we were stopped on the Peoplemover right on the section inside of Space Mountain where you can look up and see the tracks on both sides of the rocket with the two spacemen standing upside down on the bottom of it. Anyhow, apparently Space Mountain had been...

    Funny you specifically mentioned the ballroom at the Haunted Mansion because I was recently stuck here for about 15 minutes not that long ago. It was amazing to be able to look around and see all of the detail going on in that room, but yet at the same time it didn't take away from it at all. In...

    Your favorite non-signature WDW restaurant?

    Sad to hear this about Garden Grill. I've never been there before and have an ADR for it for an upcoming trip in September. I cancelled the ADR when I heard it stopped rotating and then re-made the ADR when I heard it was rotating again, and now just having mixed feelings about the place in...

    Your favorite non-signature WDW restaurant?

    Honestly, I didn't know it was on the signature list either until I looked it up just when making this post. I knew Bluezoo was, but I didn't think Il Mulino was, but it is in fact on the list.

    Which Ride...

    Yes, I HAVE been hit in the leg/knee by the safety bar, but having gone so many times now I think it's just a habit for me to position myself when getting in to keep from getting hit with it! I also find IASM and POTC boats to be hard on the knees. The backs of the POTC boats have little...

    Your favorite non-signature WDW restaurant?

    Hello and welcome to the forum! :) I don't know if Disney gives a technical definition for what a 'signature restaurant' is, but WDW does create this classification which it uses for its top-notch restaurants, which I assume it considers to be fine dining and the best of the restaurants on...

    Your favorite non-signature WDW restaurant?

    I think Il Mulino actually is listed as a signature restaurant...but I do want to make it there sometime.

    Your favorite non-signature WDW restaurant?

    I only recently ate at Coral Reef for the first time and thought it was quite good. It definitely gave Sanaa a run for the money for my favorite :)

    Your favorite non-signature WDW restaurant?

    I'm always going on and on about how I consider Sanaa to be the best restaurant at WDW that is not a signature restaurant, so I thought I'd ask what everyone else... What is your favorite WDW restaurant is that is NOT a signature restaurant?

    I'm 6'4 too and I have the same problem as you...too high for the headrest and it's often hard to hear the narration... Haunted Mansion can also be problematic...I find myself kind of hunched over to get my head in the car and to keep from banging my head on the top of it. It's also hard to get...

    Which Ride...

    I'd like to get stuck anywhere there is visually something interesting or in a place with a lot of detail...I'd LOVE to be stuck mid-way through the attic in Haunted Mansion to be able to look around at all of the items that are in that room. As far as where I wouldn't want to get stuck...I'd...

    Christmas Dining

    I've never been down to WDW that close to the actual holiday, but one thing my wife and I now have a tradition of doing is having dinner at one of the restaurants at the Grand Floridian (usually Citricos). Not only is the food wonderful, but you get to walk around the hotel and see all of the...

    Garden Grill

    I had cancelled my original ADR for Garden Grill but have now re-reserved knowing it is now rotating again. This is very nice to hear, and hopefully we'll get a couple of other confirmations that it is indeed rotating again.

    Dinner in Cinderella's Castle

    My wife and I had dinner at CRT last year. The experience as a whole was fun--especially if you haven't done it before. The way you are welcomed with chimes being played, the photo-op and the decor of the dining room are all quite nice. However, the quality of the food does NOT match the cost...

    Old park ticket question

    Thanks to all for this interesting and informative information. Currently, my friend has e-mailed a department at WDW that deals with ticketing a copy of her photo ID as well as a copy of both sides of the ticket. We are waiting to see what they have to say. I'm definitely interested to see...
