    Evening EMH is BACK at Animal Kingdom in a limited form

    Good point. Now I see that https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/planning-guides/in-depth-advice/extended-theme-park-hours/ uses the same "select" language. I'm not aware of any Walt Disney World hotels ever being excluded from EMH (well, at least not any Disney-owned ones or the Swolphin), so it's...

    Evening EMH is BACK at Animal Kingdom in a limited form

    Yeah I suppose. Seems obvious to me that evening EMH wouldn't affect pre-existing morning EMH, but I guess not to others. Now we just have to figure out why the official announcement uses "select Walt Disney World Resort hotels" instead of "all Walt Disney World Resort hotels". At least until...

    Evening EMH is BACK at Animal Kingdom in a limited form

    Thanks for posting the official announcement. What does this sentence mean... "This benefit is in addition to the Extra Magic Hours already available to you at Disney’s Animal Kingdom."? Or is that just in there to confuse us forum people?

    FastPass Plus 60 Days

    I do not know the answer, but your window being defined by your tickets seems odd/incorrect. I have an 8 day ticket but will be on property 10 days/9 nights. We probably won't use our tickets on the first day. Disney doesn't know what day you're going to first use a ticket, so it seems weird...

    Hi-res photos of the TRON monorail

    Has anyone actually ridden one of these? Regardless of whether you like the look of the vehicle wraps, if the windows are wrapped, the rider's experience is diminished. My city transit system has a full wrap bus and the decals block sooooo much light. The celebration balloon stickers on the...

    touring plans may hours????

    Keep in mind that the way that touringplans calculates their crowd ratings. Namely, they are based on wait times for the major attractions at MK. While there's no doubt that attendance is up, Space Mountain closing will likely affect crowd levels at MK and might possibly affect the crowd...

    Stitch Stage Show Update (4/1/09)

    Big yes, but it does seem to be looking less like a sore thumb now that it's more than just a big gray box. Is it just me or are they making really quick progress on this? I wonder what their target opening date is (other than spring, of course).

    Cinco De Mayo - EPCOT?

    Anyone seen anything for Children's Day at Japan, also on May 5? I'm trying to figure out if I should try to squeeze Epcot in that day because I'm curious about both Japan and Mexico... so far, I can't figure out a way to get there, but I'll keep trying if there's something interesting happening!

    Cash. Do I need it?

    RickyMouseMom: What a horrible story! Sorry to hear your vacation was so messed up! Luckily the only time Capital One has turned off my card was when I accidentally mistyped the security card on a charge to a company in Germany. But anyway.... definitely a good reason to carry some back up...

    Cash. Do I need it?

    Thanks for all the responses! :) I don't really know what sort of computer system is in place to take care of snack credits like popcorn and mickey bars, but I figured that with that level of computerization, we might be able to expect that even the mobile carts would be accepting plastic...

    Cash. Do I need it?

    I feel like this must be somewhere on the boards, but I can't find anything. When touring the parks, can I get away with just carrying my key to the world and no cash? I'd rather rely on the dining plan and charging to the room key if possible, but I assume that I'm not going to be able to...

    Sanaa - who's going?

    What menu? Looking at the handful of photos of dishes floating around, it does seem fairly classy, but it's hard to make judgements on the # of credits based on pictures or a general description of cuisine unless you see the prices.

    Stitch's SuperSonic Celebration latest construction photos

    Actually, the April date was from the audition notice from Disney, and it was reported here on wdwmagic: http://www.wdwmagic.com/Attractions/Stitchs-SuperSonic-Celebration/News/22Nov2008-Stitch's-SuperSonic-Celebration-coming-in-April-2009.htm

    Stitch's SuperSonic Celebration latest construction photos

    Originally, this was supposed to open in April.... the WDW site says "late-spring".... I don't suppose anyone has heard a revised opening date? Judging what we're seeing right now, it seems like April would be pushing it....

    Sanaa - who's going?

    Where did you read that? http://www.intercot.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=149229 says to expect one credit, and the CM did not mention it requiring 2 credits when I made my reservation.

    Epcot Fountin Walls Are DOWN!

    Y'all are ridiculous. Personally, I'm glad to see the walls are down and not screwing up the sight lines of the plaza. Thanks for the updates and the one photo. I'm sure the show fountain will return soon, and I will be glad to see it in May!

    Village Fry Shoppe to reopen on 3/26/09 as The Firar's Nook

    Thanks for all the info! I had seen the thread about the All-stars McD getting a makeover, which seemed odd if there had been some sort of falling-out, but I wasn't sure why McDs would be pulled from the parks if there hadn't been some "event" that changed the game. In any case, I welcome the...

    EMH - how does it work?

    Yep, 3 hours. And yep, if a park is open until 1 or 2am normally, and there are extra magic hours, the park will stay open until 4am or 5am! That's rare, obviously, but it can happen in really busy periods. FYI, for a list of attractions/restaurants that are likely to be open...
