    My Dining Reviews - 5 Disney, 1 Universal, 1 Disney Springs sit down

    I wanted to thank everyone for tips and headsup on ADRs, places to eat etc. I was hoping this review would help others who are looking into options. I also hoped to include a photo from each meal but I had a snafu with my phone and lost a bunch of photos, so no food shots, sorry. Right to it...

    Some questions about Parades

    Very much looking forward to the Festival of Fantasy Parade at MK which runs only twice so we will make sure to catch one of them. I noticed there is also a Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade which runs throughout the day (4-6 showings). Is the Cavalcade smaller/shorter? Any other differences...

    Future Plans in MDE shows one day park passes "expanded" , other days collapsed

    This is not a major issue more just a curiosity. When I login to MDE (on app or desktop) and look at Future Plans, it shows each day. 3 of the 4 days shows the Disney Park Pass collapsed down nice and neat with "5 guests" shown. Right under that is the Dining Res. For some reason, 1 of the days...

    Lunch Menu = Dinner Menu?

    Hi Guys, Is this new since Covid? I noticed on pretty much every Menu I've looked at, Lunch is not just similar but IDENTICAL to Dinner. The prices are also the same, which is unusual. Don't really care too much but curious if its always been this way? And are there any current restaurants...

    Magic Kingdom closing at 6pm 3x in one week? (Nov 8, 10, 11 - 2022)

    Is there something special going on that week? It's the week I go so of course I'm annoyed. Scrambling around my reservations because MK closes ridiculously early. Wed the 9 is my only option now and of course its extended evening for on property guests (I'm off property). So it will be busy I'm...

    Express Pass recommended for Wed early November visit, Islands of Adventure?

    Visiting Islands of Adventure on a wed 2nd week, Nov. Should I shell out the extra ~$400 for a family of 5 (2 adults, children ages 6,8,10) for the express passes (use 1 per ride)? Hoping to ride most things in the park - they are tall enough to go on MOST but not all rides.

    Beware: JetBlue and other Airline extended chaos- canceling and changing flights

    After months of watching airline prices continually go up, up , up I held my nose and bought Jetblue tickets back in February for my family of 5 for Nov. Original flight was to land late AM, the day before we start our first park visit. Was really disappointed in the price but was happy I got...

    Disney at night

    I checked and I'm thrilled that the clocks turn back the weekend I head to WDW (1st weekend Nov). That means sunset times are around 5:30pm. The parks close between 7-9 pm. Mostly 9pm I think that time of year. I'm thrilled we'll get 3 or 4 hours in the dark. Different experience. Aside from...

    Attractions of interest for kids in the Country Pavilions

    One of my favorite areas in all of WDW, if even just for the ambiance and beauty of the area is the Countries in Epcot. And yet, I am woefully uninformed about things to do and see, specifically with kids. I've only been twice in my life, once in 1990 and once in 2012 as an adult. Going this...

    Magic Band shortage /where and how to buy?

    I feel like this deserves its own thread. Possibly more confusing to me than the Genie +, ILL, Park tickets and reservations, MDE app etc is just literally buying magic bands. Like how and where? I saw some confusing info here, which I cannot fully decipher...

    Does using the LL mean you miss theming in the queue of any rides?

    I understand the primary goal of LL is to ride quicker and spend less time queuing. With that being said, any rides where the LL queue bypasses key theming? Just want to know ahead of time.

    Buy Genie plus BEFORE June 8. No more advance purchase!

    Mods if this is redundant or old news please delete. I was informed by my wife last night she had heard something about "buy your Genie plus before June 8". Did some googling. Looks like Disney is making changes (ie: possibly setting a cap on genie plus sales and forcing people to buy it day...

    Coolest themed restaurants for kids - my plan

    9-11-22 updated to reflect booking success: I'm trying to book at least 1 reservation sit down meal each day (early dinner mostly, or maybe late lunch). Since this is likely one of our few planned trips to WDW and my kids will be 6, 7 and almost 10 when we visit (November) I'm trying to find...

    Staying off property - is it even possible to get an ADR at the 4 main parks?

    We're staying at a condo just off property 2nd week November. No special perks or any of that. Given that property guests can book 60 days out to their check in day for the duration of their stay, am I out of luck to dine at the 4 major parks? Lunch or dinner in each park would be nice to sit...

    Family of 5 staying OFF SITE, do we need magic bands

    We are slightly more than 1 year out (Nov 2020) and I am starting to look at airfare and condo's to actually book soon. We will be offsite at condo and I am wondering is it worth the expense to buy the whole family the magic bands? 5 of us total, 3 of which are children. I am a bit confused on...
