    Families of autistic kids sue Disney parks over policy on lines

    I agree with you that the problem is the federal law. I travel with documentation of my child's disability and would have no problem showing it to anyone who needed it. Honestly, I think most families with disabilities would agree with this. If the question were on changing the law, I'm with you...

    Families of autistic kids sue Disney parks over policy on lines

    As a parent of a 3.5 year old with autism, I can say that this would be so stressful and cause even more melt downs that we simply wouldn't be able to visit Disney period. This would stick my husband and 18 month old in line alone while I sit in a room with my child who is now stressed out about...

    Water Park Fun & More Question

    The room only discount didn't end up saving as much money. We originally wanted to purchase 5 day base tickets and the regular dining plan. With this, the room only discount saved us $425 off the rack rate. The free quick service dining offer, upgraded to regular dining plan, plus upgrading our...

    Water Park Fun & More Question

    Interesting - I would have thought Disney wouldn't allow that. Thanks - its going to be be an exhausting week either way. Two kids under the age of 4 (one with autism), a double stroller the size of an Escalade, and Grandma. It's likely that the ticket add on (be it park hopper or water park)...

    Water Park Fun & More Question

    I had to upgrade our tickets to PH or WPF&M for free dining, WPF&M is slightly less expensive, so I'm thinking of doing that instead of PH. We are going for 6 nights, 7 days. Arrival and departure days are mostly eaten up by travel because of our flight times, so we have 5 day park tickets...

    Free Dining is BACK!!

    Just playing around online, I typed in our dates (Sept 7-13) and several value and moderate resorts came back with free dining available. Might be worth a second look today.

    Free Dining is BACK!!

    At 7am I was trying to do it online and it wouldn't let me, said I needed to call. I called about every 5 minutes from 7am and finally got in the phone queue at 3pm and got my reservation at AoA changed over to free dining at 4pm, after an hour wait on the phone. Because we had to upgrade to...

    Skipping A Year...or Two..

    Three reasons: long and expensive flights, the only other language I speak is French and its laughable, and the possibility of ending up on the nightly news.

    Skipping A Year...or Two..

    Both are great, can't go wrong. Slight edge to Storyland for better location and proximity to other things as well as size.

    Skipping A Year...or Two..

    Now that we have young children, we're going every 2,3 or 4 years instead of once or twice a year like we used to. Kids ruin Disney World. Seriously - what used to be a $1k trip for two (okay, my acronym got starred out - Double Income No Children) is now a $4k trip for us, our kids, and...

    Free Dining is BACK!!

    Is there a special trick to getting in the queue? It won't let me complete mine online and says to call. So frustrated!

    Free Dining is BACK!!

    This is one of the most frustrating things ever. I've called every 5 minutes since 7am and can't get anything but a busy signal. Online, I finally got to the "purchase" screen, but then it can't process the request and tells me to call. You think they would stagger this somehow to make this a...

    Anxiously Waiting for Free Dining

    7:00am - ::1 minute of silence:: ..."We're sorry, we're currently experiencing technical difficulties" 7:02am - ::busy signal:: I don't think I've heard a busy signal on a phone in about ten years. It's a throwback!

    Anxiously Waiting for Free Dining

    Not quite as great as the deal I was hoping for since I have to upgrade our base tickets to park hopper tickets, but it will still save close to $500 for the trip. I'll take it!

    Anxiously Waiting for Free Dining

    Hey Now - According to Disney Food Blog, you'll need to have a park hopper or water park and more tickets, is that new for this year's offer? Also, according to the way I see it written there it looks like everyone receives regular dining, not the value resorts receiving quick service dining as...

    Anxiously Waiting for Free Dining

    Oh man, I hope that's not the case. I thought in the past that the little mermaid rooms were excluded but suites were included. If my nemo suite is excluded I'm going to need to switch resorts I think. Yikes!

    Anxiously Waiting for Free Dining

    Does anyone have any details on the offer? Safe to assume that my reservation for a suite a AoA will be free quick service dining? Any room only discounts rumored for simultaneous release?

    Anxiously Waiting for Free Dining

    So, to summarize 9 pages for everyone who needs to catch up: Free Dining likely to be released April 25 for similar dates as in the past, also "FREE DINING KILLED THE DINOSAURS"!

    Favorite "add on" entertainment

    What's your favorite "add on" event, entertainment, or activity and why? Is it a good value? Just an amazing experience? We did the Epcot Segway Tours and the Magic Kingdom Dessert Party on our honeymoon, and while we enjoyed both - the Dessert Party was our favorite. There's nothing like...

    Anxiously Waiting for Free Dining

    Dear GOD, DISNEY! Stop messing with us. Announce the freakin' free dining! Love, Disney-holics everywhere. Seriously though - thanks everyone for your updates, tidbits of information, rumors, commiseration, and entertaining arguments to help pass the time.
