    Looking for reservations online quirk

    Hello, So, we had a last minute change to our dining plan as we got into lunch at Be Your Guest (we had to call as online wasn't working). After that, we had to shuffle around our plans for that day. We noticed a weird quirk. Just to start with, our family tends to eat meals earlier than...

    Best Disney tip you ever got!

    I figured something out yesterday. We had a change of schedule to our dining and were looking for available options. I had always picked a specific time when looking and my wife always picked "lunch" or "dinner". Well, we figure out that she got different results than I did! We prefer to eat...

    What is closed between 3/9-3/13?

    Ohhh......yes. That's it. I just downloaded the app and looked at it for the first time. I understand. Fantastic!

    What is closed between 3/9-3/13?

    That's great! I don' see anything about Tom Sawyer Island, but see on the phone app that it's not open. I'll have to figure out when that opens.

    What is closed between 3/9-3/13?

    Hi All, I have been trying to follow the various rides open and closed for when I am going to be there, but it's hard. I also had some friends just come back and report some rides shut down. I look and those rides don't show shut down. So....I'm confused. Pirates of the Caribbean? Open...

    Half a day early. What to do?

    Oh, good to know! Are those ones that are also good to recommend to get closer to the bus areas? Oh, very good to know! We were originally going to fly in and I wouldn't worry about it, but now we are driving, so I need to pay attention. Thanks! I've tried really hard to figure stuff out...

    Half a day early. What to do?

    I think that once we get into going to the park that we won't see the hotel until the end of the day. Wake up, head to park, return back to hotel to fall asleep. That's what I see as the plan. :) We don't have little kids or old people, so no reason to pop back to the hotel on a constant...

    Half a day early. What to do?

    It's funny that no one mentions getting the quick service restaurant at our own hotel. Only a few mention checking out the Caribbean, as well. We've gone a few times and stayed at Pop Century. The Caribbean is supposed to be a mid tier place, so a step up. I don't think we will eat there at...

    Half a day early. What to do?

    Funny...as that's what I did! Well, it was during dinner, actually. We talked about Downtown Disney and realized that everything there is pretty much something we can see anyways. We have a Lego store in town. Broadway On The Beach at Myrtle Beach is something we've done a dozen times...

    Any popular WDW restaurants you just don't get the appeal of?

    Maybe Biergarten food goes great when drinking a bunch of beer? Food that's decent, but not meant to outshine the beer.

    Half a day early. What to do?

    Yep. I went to the foot doc to see. He tells me that I just need to get the scooter. I've researched it all and started a post on it. There are 5 companies and they all have comparative prices. Everyone seems to talk about Apple, though. Not sure why they get everyone's attention. Maybe...

    Any popular WDW restaurants you just don't get the appeal of?

    I'm really surprised people are bashing Restaurant Marrakesh. It's been one of our favorites. We didn't find the food bland at all. We loved the belly dancing. The deserts were really good. Of course, it's been 6 years since we went last. Has it gone down hill or something? People...

    Half a day early. What to do?

    It might be worth checking out. I will need to order an electric scooter for my trip to Disney due to a busted up ankle. I'll probably need to order it for that day early. Well.....what is there to do at the other resorts? What's exciting to see? I do like that idea! I have a book on...

    Magic bands

    Just to let you know, the customization is really just picking between 5-6 colors and having your name printed on the inside.

    Half a day early. What to do?

    For food, we were just going to do the food court at the hotel. If we went to one of the full sit downs, we are talking $40 a plate. I'm fine with waiting a day. Fireworks sounds cool, but 9:20 is late for the 9 yr old, especially if we are just kicking off a week of Disney! The more I...

    Half a day early. What to do?

    Hi All, My family will spend 4 hours driving to stay with my parents just north of Savannah, GA. The next day we drive the last 4 hours to Orlando. We will come in some time after noon. We don't have park tickets for that day and don't want to pay for park tickets for that day. We are...

    Grand Marshall - How to Nominate?

    I don't know, but I hope he gets it! You can try to call the Disney people ahead of time or even ask a Cast Member at some point in hotel or somewhere else. No matter what happens, tell him "thank you" from us.

    What's the best WDW secret you know?

    Didn't know the quiz one. I'll have to remember that! The one I knew was that the line on the left is shorter for Pirates of the Carrib, but it seems that it's that way for all the rides (or so I read). I also found out about Transportation Cards. The drivers for buses, boats, and monorails...

    Great answers! Thanks so much! It helps. I'm thinking I won't have too much of a problem with other scooter people on the bus as I'm going on days that are all categorized as GREEN. At least that's what I'm hoping. :) I don't think I would have a problem with getting it on the bus. I...

    I'm going with the official third party companies. I'll take them with me back and forth to the Disney hotels and on the buses and such. It just seems easier that way. Also, it's about half the price at $150 for 5 days. Oh, and I hear that they go faster. I have no idea what to do if...
