    ILL Limits

    I was making park reservations this weekend for my party, and I could only do 12 people at once. So I had to do it in two groupings. Has anyone ever hit a limit on how many ILL spots you can buy at once for a single attraction? If this limit exists there as well, I could see splitting it into...

    Magic Band Question

    Is it possible to have a priorly used Magic Band reassigned to a new user? Background: I am taking a party of about 21 people. Most have bands already, but some do not. I have several. Can I ask the band number to be reassigned to a new user (in light of they are not free anymore).

    Cindy Royal Table

    What is the largest party size you have ever booked for breakfast or know of being booked? If the distancing requirements are dropped and this goes back to its former routine, I would consider going back.

    Front Line Cast Wage Rate

    As I was processing the 25% increase on the AP I usually get, it got me to thinking back. I used to read often years ago that Front Line CM's were only paid minimum wage or slightly higher. I know that in my area of the country, wage rates, especially in the Hospitality Industry have gone up...

    Multi Room Resort Reservation Question

    Our upcoming trip is the first time we have had multiple rooms booked for the stay, as we have more than 12 people going. If you have done this recently, I would like to ask you: 1. Can the front desk program resort door locks to where all magic bands within the party open all travel party...

    Pop Century Remodel

    This may be old news but I did not see it using search. I am staying in in the 80's this weekend. There is extensive work going on in the 90'a section. They have a third of it closed off and they ripped the rooms apart, removing dry wall, vanities and tubs. I am hearing power saws and jack...

    Connecting Studios

    We stayed at the Poly in a studio last year. I seem to remember a doorway near the entry that "led to nowhere". I suspect it connected to the neighboring studio. Do you know if connecting studios exist at the Poly? Secondly, I would assume that connecting studios at other DVC's do not exist...

    Home Resort Booking Advantage

    The 11 month window for home resort booking presents an advantage to owning at each resort. What do you see as the benefit of owning at each WDW DVC Resort? As a question related to this comes up here from time to time, here are my thoughts. What say you? OKW - very low point charts, especially...

    Direct to Room Check In

    It seems to me that WDW was recently testing direct to room on line check in. Is this on going testing still? Or has it been adopted? Nixed?

    Be Our Guest Breakfast Fall 2015

    I do not know if this is news or not, but I have been looking to book a breakfast at BOG for a couple of months now during the first week in September. Previously, the drop down did not even give breakfast as an option during that week. It now has it as an option and is available to book during...

    Interesting Disney Parks Survey Question I got Today - Tiered Ticket Pricing by Season

    (Ignore Strike Outs) We are testing a number of different ways that theme park tickets could be priced. One idea is to have Walt Disney World®Resort theme park ticket prices based on the specific day of week or time of year that you visit. In this scenario, ticket pricing is divided into...

    Poly DVC Booking Now Open

    Just a heads up: Member Services is now accepting ressies for DVC members at the Poly, at least the studios anyway. No point in checking on the bungalows. Resort availability checker is now Poly-functional as well.

    Additional FP+

    I am looking forward to using the new system next month. I feel good about my selections for the first three each day. I have a question about the additional FP+ after the first three. I know you have to get them from an in-park kiosk. In my opinion, this is a step forward from the previous...

    On Site Driving Question

    We are staying at the GF next month. I was thinking I may have to run to the Hess to pick something up while we are there. I started thinking of how close that is, but a lot of the roads are one way going out in that area. Is there a way back without continuing on out to World Drive? From...

    FP+ Early or Late?

    It would seem to me that there are two opposite strategies for using the new FP+ system for guest like myself. I would like to hear opinions on which is more efficient/enjoyable, especially from guest who have experienced it firsthand. "Guest like Me" = Adult party of 2, AP'ers, Two Weeks a...

    On Site, Room Only

    We are suddenly going next next month for a week to AKV/BC. My wife and I already have AP's, but everyone else in our party of 8 does not have tickets yet. Hence, they can not get FP+ ressies eventhough they are listed under our trips Friends and family on MDx, and on our room ressies. It...

    Over 15 visits, but first time with < 3 yr olds

    We are taking our grandsons next month. Trip was going to be in June, but in the last week had to be moved up to next month! I am a planner, and am in a bit of a scramble. One of the areas I am concerned with involves our in experience taking small children (2 and 1.5). I have not done child...

    Marathon Weekend

    I am in a bit of a scramble right now, as our June trip looks to be a no go. I am trying to put something together now for a week that includes Marathon weekend. From what I can tell, it appears rooms/resorts are pretty booked up. However, Crowd Calendar has weekend levels as moderate 5's, etc...

    Tablets and WDW Parks

    Back story: Our portable DVD player broke, and my wife asked for a new one as a gift as she uses it on the total of 32 hours we spend commuting to and from WDW each year. I figure they are on the way out tech-wise, so I decide to go ahead and buy our first tablet/iAnything device. I opted fot...
