    News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

    The problem is that all he has to do is sit out one term, and he can be elected to 2 more, unless the Florida constitution is changed.

    The article already states that more third party trucks should be filling in for the Disney trucks that are closing.

    News Walt Disney World plans to close its food trucks including locations at Disney Springs

    That's one of the third party trucks and they aren't going away, and the article states that more third party trucks will be coming to take the place of the Disney owned trucks.

    News Disney Dining Plan Returns in 2024

    I wasn't making it an us vs. them comparison for who pays and when. I merely stated the fact that when there were dining plans in the past, the ADRs at certain restaurants filled up a lot faster. I don't assume anything. People vacation differently and that's OK. What works for one family may...

    News Disney Dining Plan Returns in 2024

    This is what I always recommend to people to actually save money. Put the same amount on a gift card that the DDP would have cost you, and eat like you normally would at WDW, and like you, people will be shocked at how much they have left. Of course, if they want to eat at characters meals...

    News Disney Dining Plan Returns in 2024

    When the DDP was offered, free or not, it always reduced availability at many of the better restaurants since people that would normally not pay the price for those meals, would eat there, reducing ADRs for the rest of us.

    News Disney Dining Plan Returns in 2024

    Good point. Some of the cutting might have happened anyway. I would not judge how other people vacation at WDW. Like I said, if people want the convenience of the DDP, then go for it.

    News Disney Dining Plan Returns in 2024

    I totally agree with this! I just checked for my birthday next month and there is still availability at 68 TS places for dinner and even more for lunch. Once the dining plan comes back, there is serious doubt that much of anything good would be available this soon and we'll have to go back to...

    News Disney Dining Plan Returns in 2024

    Actually, while I don't have recordings of the conversations, I spoke to several managers at TS restaurants about the DDP, and they all hated it. All of them told me that they had to buy less expensive cuts of meat/seafood and cut expenses where they could to cover the money they were given...

    News Disney Dining Plan Returns in 2024

    It's not been about saving money in over a decade but only for the alleged "convenience" of prepaying. I have hated the DDP for many years as it causes the managers of the better places to purchase lesser quality items to cover their cost. Now if Disney did it right by adding a surcharge for...

    Walkway between Shades of Green and Disney's Grand Floridian Resort to permanently close

    Excellent point, and one that is obviously lost on Disney management.

    Walkway between Shades of Green and Disney's Grand Floridian Resort to permanently close

    True, and we always have a few resort only days during our visits.

    Walkway between Shades of Green and Disney's Grand Floridian Resort to permanently close

    I can't speak for anyone else, but when DW and I stay there, we walked to the Poly every single morning, and stopped at the Tambu Lounge every evening prior to walking back to SoG. So for us when we stay there, it will be a great inconvenience.

    Every single thing he has stated about this has been a total lie, not just stretching the truth.

    News DeSantis moves to bring state safety oversight of the Walt Disney World Monorail including suspending the service for inspections

    Well, since all of Disney's transportation systems are private, then this doesn't apply to them.

    News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

    I thought one of the amendments was to void any contract made prior to a certain date, or am I not remembering that correctly? I also thought that the amendment giving them the ability to review and void a contract was part of a different amendment, wasn't it? So hard to keep track of what they...
