    Turning Down Housekeeping

    Never have, never will. Disney does this to save money by telling Mousekeepers to stay home when there "isn't enough work". Taking money out of CM's pockets isn't worth $10/day.

    Help with friends and family lists

    I think you'll need to phone tech support. You need to split up your husband's account into separate accounts.

    Wait Lines for New Gondolas

    OK, how about this: Vehicles that stop to load vs vehicles that don't stop to load. Two options where if the maximum throughput capacity is rated the same ("X" guests/hour), the lines will progress at the same rate, whether stop and go or continuous movement, it's the maximum throughput that...

    News New Gondola Transportation - Disney Skyliner

    There will likely be at least one, possibly multiple, hydraulic tensioners at the ends of routes, which will be able to adjust the tension on the cables to optimum based on the slight variations in cable length. I don't believe steel cables will stretch or contract significantly, but it would...

    Wait Lines for New Gondolas

    My intent was to distinguish line speeds between omnimovers and others that have the same throughput, for the comparison, I chose to refer to non-omnimovers as vehicles, sue me. If buses run every 20 minutes and each bus loads at the exact same speed and the gondolas are considered to have...

    Wait Lines for New Gondolas

    Actually, they can. They "force" guests to ride the monorails and boats. People afraid of heights are going to have to avoid those resorts the same as those who get motion sickness on boats or are afraid of heights presumably avoid resorts that provide only those forms of transportation. I...

    Wait Lines for New Gondolas

    Perception is the only difference. This is the same failure of logic made by those who argue in favour of omnimovers over vehicle loading on rides. The maximum throughput of the ride does not increase or decrease, but the perception of constant motion being better than stop-and-start lines is...

    Wait Lines for New Gondolas

    WDW has quite a few buses that are parked most of the time. They surge for increased demand at park close and if other forms of transport are down. The advantage with the other forms of transportation is reduced greenhouse gases and manpower. They always have back-up plans if something goes...

    Will I get in trouble for having my old Cast Member tag?

    Disney has never sold the "same" name tags in stores. They have sold guest name tags in the past, though I haven't seen them in stores for well over a decade, usually with Disney Characters on them and they've given away name tags for things like D23 Expo Sorcerers or other VIP guests, again...

    Flight change using magical express

    They pay attention. The only thing to note is if the change has you landing after 10PM, you'll have to pick up your own bags at baggage return before boarding your bus. If you were landing before 10PM and still are, just put your yellow tags on your checked bags and head straight to the bus.

    Your favorite portable cellphone battery?

    I use Outpower, but I don’t think you get anything under $50 that does much better than what you already have.

    Canada Martin Short 360: worst film on property

    Martin is much better than some disembodied voice that's better suited to the France Pavilion... :cautious: I'd be happy to do the narration myself, but they have yet to reach out to me. :facepalm:

    Recruitment question

    I wouldn’t worry until you’ve heard them out. The interview may have given them enough that they don’t need to review, either they’re convinced or they’re not. Decisions can be reached quickly or slowly, don’t judge by what someone told you is “normal”.

    Meeting forum members

    Wow! I never thought about it before. I’ve met lots of forum members away from WDW (loads at WDW as well). My first was Heidi (then @TwoTigersMom) in Huntsville Alabama. Then I drove down to Syracuse NY to meet @Laura and @James at Dinosaur BBQ for lunch. I’ve met @Tiggerish and her hubby...

    Tickets starting a week before resort stay, what to do with magic bands

    All automatic. Unless your resort reservation is a "package" including your 14-day tickets. AFAIK the tickets on a package don't come available until you're checked in. Magic Bands are fully interchangeable, any active MB on your account will let you access the same info as any other MB on...
