Not really sure why Disney would think free tickets are costing them anything. Does it push the occupancy of the park to a point they have to turn paying guests away? I mean, those volunteers are going to spend money in the park. I dunno... guess they figure eventually there will be enough...

We are a couple of the idiots paying to try it. Oddly enough we have tickets for 12/4 lol. I dunno... we have always enjoyed the MVMCP events, though we felt a little cheated when we attended in 2021. I guess we are hoping for a little of that magic with this event as well. It might very...

This is a powderkeg issue... with strong opinions all around. My opinion is it probably has little to do with the parks themselves. I would say the peeing match with Florida, the string of bombs at the box office, and the mass exodus of Disney+ subscribers are the main contributors. Disney as...

Totally agree here. Problem now is technology has progressed to a point where by the time you intigrate it into something to interact or educate with, it is outdated. I remember the very first place I saw a motion detector automatic door opener was at EPCOT. Prior to that most, if not all...

Not too long at all. Some really good information in there! Thank you!!

EPCOT has definitely transitioned into more of an IP oriented and dining park vs the original education/futuristic technology theme. I see it more now as a relaxing park to stroll through with tons of food options and an occasional ride. Lots of stuff to wander through and look at. But the...

After our trip for the 50th Anniversary in December of 2021 I was sorting through my gigs of video and realized I had recorded the castle fireworks from 2 different perspectives. First was in front of the castle and the second was from the 7 Seas Lagoon (Fireworks Cruise - highly recommended...

There was a time I would have agreed with you... lol... but unless you are in a large group of vehicles they have very limited effectiveness. Usually by the time the detector goes off, you are already nailed. Laser is pinpoint accurate. So unless you get lucky and get a sniff of a laser...

We will be passing through that area in 10 days... have to make sure I keep the CB on and WAZE on the phone lol! Though to be honest with what I'll be towing I doubt I stretch the speed limits much...

Well nuts... I thought I had entered this under the Resort Hotels thread...

Howdy folks! Was wondering if anyone else has had issues recently with the automated system when calling the Resort Reservations number? For several days now the system has given me all kinds of fits... for instance just today alone it took me 3 tries to get all the way through the menus...

I'm one of those old timers! I remember the first time we stayed on property... it was in the 90's I think. It was one of the All-Star resorts, but to us at the time it seemed wonderful! Food court, buses to the parks, totally new experience. All prior trips we had stayed off property and...

Only 2 reasons I can think of - cost savings being the primary, and lack of staffing the other. It feels like Disney is counting on the first or second time visitors spending money freely on property vs experienced visitors that are more likely to manage their spending. They are saving money...

Do you think SM is getting rougher? Or are the newer coasters smoother and it just seems rougher? My kidneys would tend to agree with you though... lol

Having lived my entire life within 40 mins of the roller coaster capitol of the world... I like to think I'm a coaster aficionado... or at least was until I got the inner ears of a 95 year old man. :rolleyes: 😁 I voted for SM primarily for the longevity - it is as fun to ride now as it was...

One possible thought... they changed clothes once they got in the park. We always have rented a locker at the parks to stash rain gear/clothes to accommodate temperature changes in December. It is easy to cover up a Tshirt or short shorts to get in the park. I am more than happy to pay for a...

Fort Wilderness campground after dark can be pretty cool. Some people really go overboard decorating their campsite. Only problem is due to the size of the campground - without a cart you are kinda restricted to the loops near The Settlement. Usually some really nice displays within walking...
