    American Airline passengers check your flight times

    Unfortunately, this is not just an American Airlines thing. I've had this sort of thing happen on just about every airline (other than Southwest where the booking window is short). Whenever you book far out - and even when you book just a few months out - always keep an eye on your...

    I hate to tell you this about Caribbean Beach Resort...

    Yes, medical expenses. The OP stated they went to the doctor (I actually READ the posts before jumping in - may I suggest you do the same?), hence there were medical expenses that should be reimbursed. Even the best insured of us have co-pays these days. And if they are uninsured, a doctor's...

    I hate to tell you this about Caribbean Beach Resort...

    How about compensation for medical expenses to start with?

    Victim of beatdown at Teacups sues Disney

    All I can say is that if anything ever happens to me at Disney where I feel the need to have official law enforcement summonded, and ask Disney staff to do so AND THEY DON'T IMMEDIATELY DO IT, then you can be d*** sure I'm going to sue! The fact is that financial damages are how we punish...

    Victim of beatdown at Teacups sues Disney

    I believe the issue with Disney was that when the incident happened, the CMs were slow to call security, then security was slow to call the sheriff or whoever. By the time all was said and done, witnesses had disappeared and pressing charges became much more difficult than it needed to be...

    Eating Solo

    Take a book along if you think you will feel self-conscious, it gives you something to at least look occupied with and you won't get so many "oh, how sad" looks from others.

    What would you pack?

    At least 2 comfortable, well worn in pairs of shoes - trade off between pairs each day. (On a side note: I guess I'm the one person that didn't have much luck with crocs at Disney. They gave me the absolute worst blisters I have ever had on my feet after 1 day last year - made the rest of the...

    tiny umbrella or poncho?

    Both. The ponchos are great for the long, drizzly rains. Umbrellas are better for quick showers. And in the really hard downpours, I usually end up using both - the poncho keeps the bulk of me dry but the umbrella keeps the rain out of my face so I can see to keep moving. That way I don't...

    MCVCP...What should we do?

    Well, if I had the luxury of a bigger paycheck :cool:, got veteran's day off and decided to take advantage of that holiday with a long weekend at WDW, I would arrive on Friday night/Saturday morning, but leave Tuesday sometime - before the party that night - so that I could be back at work the...

    Just A Little Discouraged

    I think people cut in line because, quite simply, THEY CAN. Rarely have I seen anything done about line cutting at WDW. If the CMs would crack down on it more, fewer people would attempt it. People won't engage in behavior that they feel will cost them more than they gain. But right now...

    Problems using Magical Express?

    Last year, we were scheduled on a DME bus from Pop to the airport at 8am or something such. Well, that bus never showed. The next bus was scheduled for a half hour later. It showed, but by that time there were WAY too many folks waiting to fit onto one bus. The driver had to call for a...

    Wow, the people at Frommer's have a bad attitude!

    I always stay at the Values (just me and my young daughter) and have never had to "cross dark parking lots in the middle of the night in order to get to my room"! The bus lets you out at the main building, just like the Deluxes. You do then proceed thru that building and outside to your room...

    Wow, the people at Frommer's have a bad attitude!

    I understand that staying onsite has its pros and cons, as does staying offsite. Like you, I am a single parent and staying onsite works better for me for the reasons you stated. But I can also see where staying offsite works better for others. I do find it strange that Frommers would come...

    Embarrassing Disney Stories!

    This must totally be a guy thing - I have several pictures of my (then 78 year old) father shaking various characters hands. :rolleyes: He sooooooooo did not want to take any pictures with characters, but his granddaughter made him. My siblings and I use those pictures as blackmail now :ROFLOL:

    Another Dining Plan Question...

    No, that is not the case. I currently have a room-only reservation for Aug 22nd-24th, and a free dining reservation for Aug 24th-30th, both at ASMusic. I did it that way last year too at Pop - in fact, in that case I ended up with a chain of 3 reservations (room only-free dining-room only) due...

    Just booked Free Dining!

    Just giving a shout out to Marie at Kingdom Konsultants - she did all the leg work to switch my reservation over to free dining this morning :sohappy::sohappy::sohappy: I have to say it was VERY nice to wake up at 4:15 this morning (CA time), look at the clock, think "Oh - Free Dining is up...

    Typhoon Lagoon End of Aug Weekend Crowds?

    What are the crowds like at Typhoon Lagoon on a Saturday at the end of August, compared to a weekday? We were originally planning on hittling TL on a Monday, but for various reasons I'm now looking at hitting it on a Saturday...
