Great - thanks for the confirmation. Like I said, never bought them this way before and don't want to show up to the parks with problems in a few months.

I've always purchased my tickets as part of my trip package through Disney, but now we are DVC members and going this fall using our Annual Passes we bought at a discount last winter. My girlfriend however does not have the AP so I'm looking at buying a ticket for her from one of the third party...

Call me selfish, but if FastPass+ means that as a WDW resort guest I get access to FastPass while the day visitors are excluded, then this new system is winning me over. Doesn't Universal do something similar for their resort guests already?

I think this is a common problem these days - the world is changing so fast that what is contemporary and topical changes on what seems like a weekly basis. IMO its why so many of the rides made in the last few years <cough> American Idol <cough> are so dead even during the busier times of the...

If its going to be your honeymoon let them know when you book - that might be the push to get a lagoon view for you guys! Congrats!

We don't bother with Fastpass for Splash Mountain; the trick is to wait and ride in the evenings. Once the sun goes down, so do the wait times! Can't understand why people don't want to get wet when its cool out. ;)

If you are staying at the Inn rather than Villas, you will be in the smaller wing that is closer to Epcot. Chances are your water view will be of the pool area since there are fewer rooms that face the lagoon on that side of the resort but you may get lucky. The elevators are just past the Belle...

Stayed there a few years ago and enjoyed it. Rooms have been redone since I was there but were still nice at the time and had plenty of space. Here are a few of my thoughts: Pros: Good location in the world - pretty central with short drives to Epcot and DHS, slightly longer to MK and AK but...

Gates don't make sense, but could it be drainage related?

Never tried it but Big River Grille and Brewing Works is right on the Boardwalk too and has microbrews.

Was talking with some friends this past weekend about Disney visits and they said they wanted to stay on site for their next visit as he works for ESPN and can get a great room rate. We were talking about resorts and one of the important points for them is a great kids pool as they have a little...

First post in a while... but just presenting some other prices for comparison. The price increases are definitely pushing the envelope of what is reasonable, but Disney isn't alone in being an expensive pastime that keeps increasing prices. I enjoy skiing in the winter and at Killington in...

Thanks for the replies all. We're almost definitely buying in on the resale market, and are actually considering BWV for a home resort. Since we'll be staying there in June, maybe we'll just stop by the model room rather than head over to SSR which we aren't interested in.

My brother and I are giving serious consideration to buying into DVC later this year. Chances are good that we would buy resale (though BLT is a possibility if we determine its worth the premium). We'll be taking our next trip down the first week in June and were wondering if they do tours of...

We stayed at the Yacht Club this past winter for my Mom's 50th Birthday. There were five of us in the room for a few nights before my sister had to go back to school, and all of us were 19+. The room was plenty large and comfortable and having two sinks in the bathroom area was great. The "day...

I'm guessing jsut a refurb, its still really popular and if we're talking about removing attractions where kids shoot at objects, then Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin would have to go too. I know when I was there this winter I there were some targets that didn't work right and I used one...

Definitely make it a point to get at least one round in on every trip. I'm not the only one as there have been many times I've been forced to come back later in the day as all stations were full up!

Hollywood Studios is still a park I really enjoy, but it needs help. What you have here is a good start, there is too much here that needs updating or to be replaced completely. Don't forget Sounds Dangerous, the Art of Animation is a shell of its former self, and American Idol was almost half...

I hadn't considered this originally, but a Beastly Kingdome location for LOTR might be made to work. You could do something with Smaug, Orcs, Eagles and Ents and it would fit with the whole fantasy theme the area was originally intended to have. With a little creative planning, the main...

Love the attraction and see it at least once every trip. Yeah its cheesy, maybe a little outdated in some ways but its always fun to see and Big Al makes me laugh every time. The only thing I'd like to see is get everything cleaned up and maybe upgraded a bit.
