    Cinematic Celebration lagoon show is back

    The lagoon show is back in the schedule after the show equipment was damaged in the hurricane. Pyro is set and they were testing fountains earlier. (I'll have to watch it another night, I'm over at IOA getting night rides in on Hagrid's and Velocicoaster) -Rob

    Harambe Market reopened

    Not sure how recent, though I swear it was still listed as closed a couple weeks ago, but visiting AK today I noticed Harambe Market was back open again. Unfortunately they slashed the menu and removed some things that made it more unique like the spiced sausage. Now the menu is ribs and...

    MCO Terminal C to open September 2022

    It was recently announced that the new Terminal C at MCO will have a phased opening over the course of the last two weeks of September. I believe Jetblue is the only airline announced to be moving there, so if you're flying them during that period I'd expect things to very much be in flux and to...

    DCA 12/8 Special Event?

    Anyone know the special event at DCA that's pushing it to an 8pm close on 12/8? Unlike the Merriest Nights in Disneyland the days before and after, the site and app aren't saying anything. Cast Christmas party perhaps? -Rob

    Table Service with outdoor seating

    Does anyone know of a current list of WDW Table Service locations that offer outdoor seating options? I'm not sure when we'll be comfortable being indoors in places where most others have their masks removed to eat/drink. Here in Massachusetts we've been limiting ourselves to places that have...

    DHS John Williams wins Grammy Award for "Galaxy's Edge Symphonic Suite"

    Kinda random, but figured this was the best place for it... John Williams won his 25th Grammy last night, "Best Instrumental Composition" for the music he wrote for Galaxy's Edge. (Warning, this article was not written by theme park people and contains some cringe-worthy errors)...

    Mobile ordering food comes to Universal Orlando

    Universal has decided to roll out their version of mobile ordering at their counter service locations, accessed through their parks app. It started at Burger Digs, and has expanded to Captain America Diner and Cafe 4. And the best part is you can order beer! Unfortunately I doubt we'll see...

    Sapphire Falls view question

    We may be taking a quick trip down to Universal, and are looking at Sapphire Falls with an AP discount. I had a question about room views. The three views for rooms are Standard, Lagoon and Pool. Lagoon and Pool are pretty self-explanatory, and it's clear where those rooms are when looking at...

    How did Universal fare in Irma?

    Since most of the coverage on the site is for the WDW parks and resorts, I was just curious if anyone knows how the Universal parks did in the storm. I see in the app that both Jurassic Park River Adventure and Hulk are listed as Closed. JP is obvious with all the foliage (there's a few...

    Remaining Version 1.0 Bands now 50% off in app

    Didn't see it posted anywhere else, but I noticed this morning that all version 1 Band designs are 50% off in the Shop Disney Parks app. Looks like they're trying to clear out all the remaining stock so they can focus on the 2.0 Bands going forward. -Rob

    Universal holiday offerings and Seasonal Pass blockout

    I've been trying to get an answer from Universal Guest Services, but haven't heard back yet. Does anyone know if the nights where Mannheim Steamroller is playing at the Studios, is that considered a "concert night" for Seasonal Passholders? (And thus the passholder is blocked out from the...

    How quickly does October book up?

    The short version is that I'm wondering just how far in advance 2-bedroom units book up during mid-to-late October. OKW and SSR are fine with us. Can we book inside the 7-month window and still be OK? Long version: We're in the early stages of planning a group trip in October 2018 and are...

    New DDP and room charge tracking features in MDE app

    Looks like an update to the MDE app today is adding some interesting features for on-site guests: You'll be able to see the remaining credits on your Dining Plan, as well as keep track of purchases to your room charge account. You'll also be able to renew "eligible Annual Passes" in the app. (My...

    Queues *not* to skip with Express Passes?

    I'll be going on my upcoming trip with two newbies to the Universal parks. While I've been a few times, this will be the first time I've stayed at one of the hotels that gives Unlimited Express Passes, so I'm not sure what of the queues you miss by using Express. So the question is: which...

    Admission tickets can be used for room entry

    Just got back yesterday from an 8-night trip. Going into the trip I had a couple hypotheses I wanted to try out to see if the MDE system operated the way I presumed it did. One of these was to see if our admission tickets would work to get into the room, since they show as RFID cards linked to...

    RnRC Hasn't Opened Yet Today

    Today is our checkout day, spending the day at Studios. Had a FP+ for RnRC at 9:50am and got the email at 8am saying that the ride wasn't available for our FP+ window. Now that we're in the park at 11 it's still down. Haven't had a chance to ask a CM yet, but it obviously is a decent issue if...

    November park hours expanded

    Anyone with trips coming up next month might want to go back and recheck the park hours on the WDW site. Disney just altered the closing times for many days. MK Saturdays that were 10pm are now 11pm or midnight, adding a second running of MSEP. (EMH from 12a-2a November 1st!) Many other...

    Two hotel reservations at the same time

    It looks like I may encounter a situation in November that I haven't seen anyone post about yet... Has anyone ever been linked to two *simultaneous* hotel reservations? A short backstory: We're staying for a week in a 2-bedroom at Saratoga Springs. While a couple of us will be there the entire...

    Adding Water Park & More Option

    So despite being a fairly well-informed Disney person, a friend I was helping plan a trip for asked me a question that I wasn't 100% sure of the answer... We'd been talking about adding days and Park Hopper onto a ticket mid-trip. I had explained that if he wasn't sure if they'll need Park...
