This whole new system operates on the assumption that everyone visiting is very computer literate. But in fact not all of my generation (65+) is neccessarily all that computer savvy. For example, my hubby could actually build you a nice house, fix and install any plumbing and most electrical...

Each time you checkin you will get another set. We are AP, DVC and frequent weekend last minute bookers. The last two weekend reservations I made (one in Nov and one in Dec) I had to have two reservations for each booking. Friday night was one hotel and Saturday night was another one just...

That's why I said in a previous post that to me wearing the magic band is a constant glaring reminder of all this. Also didn't Mr. Iger have to go before Congress to testify about all this privacy, etc. because it involved minors using the system? I believe it was a Mass. Congressman doing the...

I agree with you. We have two sets of bands that we used on one weekend because I had to make two reservations for the same hotel - one for a Friday night for a studio and one for a one bedroom on Saturday because that was all that was available. And that was just November. I anticipate...

Exaaaactlly !

I never thought I had any thing but average intelligence, but suddenly I feel like I've been catapulted into brilliance because I still continue to realize that no matter what form of payment I use - KTTK card, credit card, cash or magic band - I am still paying the same! WOW!! Can you tell I...

No way:eek:. Surely there must be at least one person in "executive world" out there that can have the passion for the Parks that is needed and the business experience to know how a theme park should be operating. I felt like Mr. Iger was that person when he first started because of his...

Exactly!!!!.....ATTRACTIONS ARE THEIR BUSINESS!!! What is DisneyParks without attractions? Just a somewhat fancy group of hotels with overpriced restaurants. Not keeping attractions foremost is only a course for doom. What did they expect that the crowds that they kept luring by building more...

Disney execs and other elites in business and government positions live in Bubbleworld. The rest of us live in Disneyworld. When there is no more money to spend in my Disneyworld household - then there is no more money. In Bubbleworld they can create another Bubbleworld that has more money in...

Spreadsheets, schmreadsheets - it all sounds like "fuzzy math syndrome" to me. Sometimes by luck it works, sometimes it doesn't. By the way, I think it must be the same kind of math our Government uses, so it must be accurate - right???;)

I agree - that fold out sofabed is not very comfortable at all. Instead of a huge king bed why don't they put two queens in the bedroom? Anyone with more than one kid is not going to be happy with the parents sleeping in the bedroom and two (or more) kids on the sofabed.

We will miss you dearly, daughter of the most influentially positive man of my lifetime. The Disneys improved the human spirit and made part of their "family" so many people they had never met. Time now for all Walt Disney fans to continue their cause and be the Dreamers and Doers of hope and...

I can't imagine the Christmas season at Disney without the Osborne Lights. It is one of my favorite displays and I will be really mad if they disappear. It is so "unique", which is what Disney used to be proud to be. I'm hoping now that the Next Gen thing (debockle in my opinion) is finally...

We are DVC members since 1997, Annual Passholders/Florida residents, and have a Tables in Wonderland card and I'll start by saying I am not a fan of this billions of dollars program/NextGen, so I wasn't surprised about the experience I just had. I booked two separate reservations for this past...

I have never done a dining plan, but I bought the Tables in Wonderland a year ago and like its flexibility. Now if I could only get into a restaurant without a reservation!!!

The parking lot of our local Publix put up their trees and candy canes on the lamp posts last week. Sounds like Disneyworld is a little late? :rolleyes:

:) Thanks for clarifying the RCI relationship, I have never been a timeshare owner other than DVC so I am not familiar with how other systems work. I've sort of felt something is different now and I'm just trying to figure it out so I can adjust my bookings accordingly. There was a time that...

How does that "sell enough points for EVERY room to be filled EVERY night of the year" correlate to the recent partnership Disney has with RCI? As a DVCer I am finding it harder to get a booking in the last year or so than I ever have since 1997. Granted many times it is somewhat last minute...

Until I read through this entire thread I was thinking the fencing going up was due to Disney controlling the capacity at each pool and to make sure you are a resort guest. I know the Beach Club requires a wrist band that you can only get with your room key - even little kids needs to show...

We've been a DVC member since 1997:). Since we moved to Central Fl in 2006 we have usually booked last minute at Walt Disney World - like a few days or a week before - because it is only a 90 minute drive. Until last year we could always get accommodations, but now I am really struggling to...
