I have an unused 6-day Hopper and a $200 Disney gift card and would like to get an AP. I know I can upgrade the Hopper to an AP, but can I also use the gift card to help pay for the AP? Sounds like a dumb question, but you never know with Disney and ticket policies.

I have an AP that is up for renewal in May. I plan on going to WDW the week before it expires. I know you can upgrade a MYW pass to purchase an AP, but I would like to know if I could upgrade an unused MYW pass I have toward the renewal of my AP when I get to the park.

I'm leaving for WDW tomorrow and was wondering if anyone has booked an Alamo rental through Undercover Tourist recently and if so, what are the pick-up procedures? I read that you can only use the online kiosks if you rented directly from Alamo, but then on my confirmation from Undercover...

For our Sept. 2016 trip I'm renting DVC points and bought my pass from Undercover Tourist. It came in the mail today and I linked it to mydisneyexperience.com. The pass is showing under my Magic band from our trip this past October, but not under the new Magic band for the upcoming trip. Is...

I had a reservation booked at POR for September 2016, but we changed our minds and decided to rent DVC points instead. We've rented a studio at BLT and now I have to buy tickets. My question is: when you rent DVC points does everyone on the reservation have to have the same type of ticket (like...

My husband and I just got back two weeks ago from WDW and had a great trip! It was DH's first time at a Disney park and I was sort of nervous about how he would like it, but I think he enjoyed himself. Anyway, this isn't really a trip report, but more of a list of some notable things that...

We're leaving in three days and I'm getting all my Donald ducks in a row (lame joke, I know)...I rented a car from Alamo and did the online check-in/skip the counter option. I have all my confirmations printed up and ready to go, but I just can't shake my paranoia and OCD when it comes to...

We're driving from MCO to POFQ on a Wednesday afternoon. It's my first time driving to WDW and I'm a little concerned because I've heard that the traffic around DTD and Buena Vista Drive is pretty nasty. Are there any other routes that would be better?

I decided to rent a car from Alamo at MCO (picking up and dropping off there). I signed up for the Insiders program, gave them all my info and did the online check-in to skip the counter and go directly to the garage. I did not prepay, though...I chose to pay at the airport. I was just...

I've heard/read a lot about how horrible the construction is right now and how there are walls everywhere. Is it an exaggeration? I know that there are a number of projects going on right now. We're leaving for our vacation in 43 days and I'm definitely not gonna' let some barriers and cranes...

This will probably sound like a Dear Abby column.Not sure where to post this, but it has something to do with planning... My husband and I are leaving for WDW in a little over a month. I surprised him with the trip back in March. He's never even been to Florida and he says he's excited, but...

Has anyone used the WDW buses lately? I've been reading quite a few negative reviews regarding the resort bus service from the past year (long waits, it taking way too long to get to the parks because the bus stops at numerous resorts, overcrowding, etc, etc). Were the buses from your resort...

I'm starting to plan my fall (9/30-10/6) trip and am wondering...which calendar does everyone trust/go by (especially when it comes to EMH's)? The two calendars I'm looking at the most are the calendar on the Disney site and then this calendar...

I forgot if EMH's are offered every day. I'm planning my trip for September 30th-October 6th and have been looking at various calendars and I'm noticing an AM EMH at Epcot on the 30th (but I won't be in WDW yet) and only one PM EHM at DHS for Oct. 4th. I know Disney doesn't have ALL the park...

Not sure if I'm posting this on the correct board, but here goes. Do you have any favorite books about the history and planning of Disney World? I love reading about the early years of WDW. So far I have read Realityland by David Koenig (I like that book so much I'm reading it for the third...

Does anyone remember back in the 80's (around 1985, because I remember it from my first visit) a man's voice that would come over a speaker at the Main Street train station and say something like, "you have fiiiiive minutes" (I'm assuming it was five minutes until the train departed) in a big...

I'm planning a 2016 trip and would like to try OKW. It looks like a nice resort and I've been to the real Key West and absolutely loved it, so I'm thinking about booking there. I'm reading reviews about how spread out it is and how you should rent a car to get around, etc. Is it that bad? I've...

Is it true that I can use snack credits from my Quick Service dining plan for food at the F&W festival? If so, why did I not know this before?!?
