    Value Resorts

    Agree with this. If we want to go and money's on the short side, we stay at Pop. Love their food court, and we've always had good bus service and great cast members. So if you really want to go, I wouldn't hesitate to go value.

    WDW pro going to DL for first time!

    I second Monty's opinion on Blue Bayou. That's one restaurant that you need to book early. It's inside Pirates so is quite popular. We were there last December and they were turning people away or telling them to come back in 2 - 3 hours. If you want to sit beside the water, book lunch for...

    Nye 2016-2017

    We did it in 2014. A lot of people, but a lot of fun too. Make sure you book fast passes and dining if you want it. It's the only time I've ever seen 180 minute standby line for Pirates.

    Is it possible to have Magical Express take your luggage to the resort if you don't use the bus?

    No. At least one member of your party must ride the bus for them to transport your luggage to your resort.

    Wet Winters - 2015 and El Nino

    We often go in December. One trip it rained 7 days out of 8 and that was not just a little rain, some days it poured down that year. We just carried on. I'm not going to spend my vacation, especially at Disney, sitting in a hotel room. But on the other hand, we've also had it be 85, or below...

    Parents surprised me with a Be Our Guest reservation under their name. Will there be a problem?

    No extra fee will be charged if they don't go and only the 2 of you show up. You are still honouring the reservation. If no one goes, then you will be charged the 10/person no show fee. We have had this happen ourselves where the reservation was for 4 but only 2 of us went. They don't even...

    New Year's Eve

    Agree with this. When we were there a couple of years ago, we did MK on the 30th (both MK and Epcot celebrate Dec. 30th and 31st so you can do 1 park one day and the other the next). MK parking lot was closed before 10:00 am in the morning. We were staying on property and our bus from Pop...

    2016 Price Question

    Are you sure you're running the correct room categories for what you want? I just checked your dates for AKL and your price of $1297 per night is for a Standard View-1 BR Suite-Club Level Access. Regular Standard room is $479/night and Pool view is $538/night, Your Contemporary rate of $1,590...

    Cards or Bands?

    We just got back last Sunday and saw lots of people using cards instead of magic bands. You just hold the card to the scanner instead of your magic band for fastpass etc.

    Logic of a quick trip in November with a big trip on the books for April

    I do agree with you on this. Even though we went for a long weekend, it was only because it worked for us this particular weekend. We stay in a value resort, either Pop Century or All Star Movies (there was a summer discount), eat quick service and use an airline points card and we snagged a...

    Logic of a quick trip in November with a big trip on the books for April

    I agree with Master Yoda, If you can afford it, I would go. We just got back on Sunday from doing a quick "long" weekend trip. Flew down on a late flight Wed, July 1 and back on Sun, July 5 and back to work on Monday. We had 3 park days so we did MK/EPCOT/MK. We did the Southern California...

    which of these for MNSSHP

    I also like the 3rd one, but would go with the 1st for comfort reasons. My daughter and her girlfriend went in early October, they were Cinderella and Belle, both in long costumes, and found they were too warm and the long dresses were a pain to get on or off any attractions they decided to go...

    Hotel Booking in Advance Question. Help Needed!

    1. Yes you can book a room only now and then alter it later on when other offers come out. 2. I believe it's the cost of your 1st nights stay, unlike packages which are a $200 deposit. Refund date is much closer in (sorry, can't remember the exact number of days), whereas packages are 45...

    Wearing Glasses on rides?

    I've worn glasses my whole life. The only ride I take them off for is Everest. I'm not comfortable with the high speed backward section. First time I rode it I felt I had to hold them so they didn't get whipped off on that backward section, so now I take them off and put them away. Other...

    Fastpass for Anna & Elsa?

    We were in MK last week. A family of 4 had booked a single FP for Big Thunder thinking they only had to book one for the family and not realizing that everyone had to have their own FP. Cast members told them only 1 person could ride, the person holding the FP and the others could not and sent...

    For those of you who do not care for Magic Express

    We have arrived that late, and yes Magical Express will pick you up at the airport. There were plenty of busses available and lots of people arriving at that time. They pretty much run a 24 hour service these days. We just returned home on the weekend and our pick up time at ASMovies was at...

    Be Our Guest... pls explain

    Just be aware that Belle is NOT at Be Our Guest. Beast is the host at the restaurant. I believe Belle is still at Akershus in EPCOT. Just in case you were trying to book BOG assuming that Belle would be there.
