    News Disney’s Fiscal Full Year and Q4 2021 Earnings Results Webcast

    I love mobile ordering as a concept. But they were not prepared for the crowds they had, and that limited the success of mobile ordering in our case. We have a friend who's daughter is a food service CP worker. She said that race weekend was the first really big crowds they'd had since she...

    News Disney’s Fiscal Full Year and Q4 2021 Earnings Results Webcast

    Right. Except for the part where I acknowledged that, and the context was simply that we didn't want to stay until closing because we had to be up super early yet that was the only way to get on rides without an hour plus wait. Bad weather is not Disney's fault. Crowds are debatable. However...

    News Disney’s Fiscal Full Year and Q4 2021 Earnings Results Webcast

    I fell off the forums for awhile and didn't see this or I would have replied sooner. I'm not sure why it's important to nullify my disappointments. I made it clear that I realized not all of the issues were Disney's fault. But you misunderstood my food ordering issue. No, 30 minutes to wait...

    News Disney’s Fiscal Full Year and Q4 2021 Earnings Results Webcast

    We went to AK on the Friday it poured. It's the worst park to be in during rain and we know that. But I didn't feel like screwing with getting a new "reservation" for a different park. Making one in the first place irked me. So we were freezing and wet and left by noon. Ordering food was a...

    News Disney’s Fiscal Full Year and Q4 2021 Earnings Results Webcast

    I just got back from Disney. We did the Wine and Dine races. We have done 10 or so race weekends and have been to Disney - both coasts- many many times like everyone else on this board. It was awful. We literally had a terrible time. You nailed all the things we hated. Some visits in the...

    This is such an excellent description of how it works. Thank you. I will be stealing to use in conversation!

    Is the Swan or Dolphin better?

    I'm reading lots of threads that lump the Swan and Dolphin together. I've picked up on a few differences, but to those of you who have stayed in both frequently - which is better? We are Marriott Platinum, so if that gets any perks at these hotels I'd love to know. Thanks!

    Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend

    Agreed. I have never ever seen them care one iota who is getting on that bus. If you want to go, they will take you. That has always included spectators as well. Also, I know things have been changing with Swan and Dolphin, but we often stay at Beach or Yacht Club for Marathon weekend and our...

    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    So here's a real world scenario that we have literally been discussing ad nauseam here. I don't think it will change anyone's opinion on anything, but I'm sad and aggravated and need an outlet. My mother in law just died of Covid a few hours ago. She is in her late 70's. Lives with my father...

    I'm retiring from runDisney - for a great reason!

    Hmmmm, that could be very fun. I'll have to think on that. Thanks for the share and congratulations!!

    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    Same! I mean, for a week now, the "bargain" room has been GF for just under $900 without taxes. What in the heck?! I fully expect to pay a premium to stay on property, but this is beyond insane! Boardwalk for over $1000? My brain has actually stopped computing. Edited to add: Good job on...

    Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend

    So my husband is a sub 4 hour marathoner and I'm about an hour behind him. He has ridden Everest because there is no line when he goes by. Fast forward an hour to the mid packers like myself, and the line is loooong-ish and I can't bring myself to push my finish any further into the heat. So I...

    A Thank You To Our Insiders

    Great post. I've been agonizing for awhile about how badly I still want to go. My son is an adult now, however, we have still enjoyed our Disney trips very much. My husband and I run the races at Disney, too. We live far away but go at least once a year, and often twice, for 20+ years. I...

    Disney Wine and Dine Half Marathon

    Does anyone think there is any real possibility of Disney cancelling this race in person? I realize they are surely sick and tired of cancelling and never imagined that we would have another major surge to deal with. I feel the same and never would have signed up if I could imagine this...

    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    You are correct. You don't know me. And yet you are rude and condescending because you *perceive* that I am claiming high ground. I absolutely advocate on many levels for the issues I find important in this world. Many are literal tragedies. My personal opinion is that this world changing...

    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    How have you deduced that I isolate accountability to this single subject? This is the subject we are discussing. And your obtuse comments that you continue to toss out belie your lack of an actual defense in this "argument." Without having read all 3884 pages of posts, I can only deduce you...

    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    I guess that there is a group of us that thinks accountability is a thing. Not sure how to move forward if we aren't able to call out the ongoing and continuing very bad behavior of some groups. I'm all about a kumbaya moment. But I'm pretty sure we are past that in my lifetime.
