    Pandora Flight of Passage - Can Big People Fit on the Ride?

    I am 6' and 330lbs with thicker legs. I tested the ride vehicle outside and was told I was on the line and may not fit. I went in and the cast member just said she was going to lightly push on my back. Once licked in, I had room to relax. My feet and legs were not pinned in. It clicked in so...

    Which room at Pop Century?

    This past January, we stayed in a preferred room in the 60's nearest the main building. We did however walk across the bridge and toured all of AOA resort and ate dinner there. I enjoyed the fact that they serve your meals on real plates and metal dinnerware, no paper and plastic. If you...

    Chef Mickey - is it a must??

    My wife and I did it in Jan 2015 for the first time. The food was OK and the characters were fun, but we were seated in a corner table by a window that really looked past some roof tops. The table was in an out of the way area separated from the rest of diners by a wall. We felt like we were...

    But it's tradition...

    We tried Via Napoli for the first time in January. I was excited to finally try it and hoping it would be one of those go to places to eat. Our server seemed to not have much interest in our table. I had a pizza which was good but not as much as the hype. My wife had a pasta dish which was...

    Favorite YouTube channels

    I really enjoy SEEYAREALSOON for a weekly carefree half hour of mental vacation. Joe and Ashley not only enjoy the little things in the parks, they seem to enjoy each others company. For history and great production video, I like MartinsVidsDotNet.

    Any personal old stories from WDW in the 1970s or so?

    The first time visiting WDW was on July 4, 1976. My best friend and I graduated high school in 1975 and went straight to work. By the summer of 76, I was switching jobs and he was getting ready to go away to college. We happen to both be off for the holiday and said "Who would have the BEST...

    allegiant air?

    A few years ago, they had flights from Youngstown Ouio to Orl Int. We had 4 travelers. This was the year before they started charging a huge fee for carry ons. As we boarded, they told us they had no room left in the overheads so we had to check the bags. We argued that we indeed did see...

    Calling all people who were in Animal Kingdom December of 2012!!!....

    On Dec 7, 2009, my wife and I rode on the first float (Rafiki) of that parade. A few months later, I was watching YouTube videos of WDW like I do every day and was surprised when I saw us in the parade. We are a couple of kids in our mid 50's at the time in line with all the other kids getting...

    Michael the Singing Waiter

    He sang to my daughters in Sept 2011. He got down one one knee and sang his heart out. I have a video clip of it if I can find it among my thousands of unorganized pics and videos. It was one of those magical moments. We still laugh about it.

    The Nicest Thing

    My daughter got to go one year with a friend's family. She knew how much I talked about the night time MK parades and that they just switch back the ELP that I saw last in 1980. She called me from Main St and had me listen to the entire parade on her phone. Needless to say, the sound quality...

    Shhhhh...don't tell... It's a JIMINYCR Secret

    Everything you planned sounds wonderful. Not too long ago, I read about the Photopass people offering private photo shoots where they go on location with you and capture all your special moments for however long you they are hired. I'd leave my camera at home and just enjoy her company and let...

    Your Biggest TS Disaster At WDW.

    Last Dec, we had ADR at Akershus(?). It was for myself, my wife, 2 grown daughters and my 1 yr old grand daughter. I forgot my itinerary when we left our resort, so during lunch, I stooped in at the front desk at the restaurant to confirm our time. I was told 5pm. We had a great day at...

    Anyone receive a PIN for free dining in Dec ??

    Yes, My daughter-in-law received a pin for free DDP for Dec. 15 thru the 22. There are also a couple sets of days in Nov. but when she said the Dec dates and that they were seriously considering booking, my mind shut down. Maybe they will give me an early Christmas present and take me...

    The Importance Of Ambience!

    We've been to Le Cellier only once. I agree with Mad Hatter on being too dark. It was near the end of their serving day and we had a lengthy wait. But the staff turned everything around made it one of our best dining experiences on property. As we waited, the staff played WDW and Canandian...

    Favorite thing to waste money on

    My DW and I splurge on the Disney Photopass. Even though we have THOUSANDS of pics, it's something that you don't have to decide each time you see a photographer if you want to spend the money or not. The more you use it, the cheaper it becomes. Each trip, we come up with different shots that...

    September or December?

    Since 2005, we have gone every year but 2006 and all but two of those years were in Sept. The other two were the 1st week of Dec and the 2nd week of Dec. Sept is hotter and we ran into more Brazilian guests and (IMO) more rudeness in general in the parks and on the buses. Mid to late Sept...

    Some of the " Subtle" things you love bout Disney

    I agree. We enjoy the DDP because it's the one time we can go to any restaurant on a vacation and just order what ever without looking at price. No worry, just the added sense of magical moments. Through out the year, so many of us have to watch our budget and you sometimes get the feeling...
