Hi all, Bought my used Pal Mickey during the summer for my trip on December 12-18. Just wondering if anyone has used their Pal Mickey lately, and if it still works in the park. Also, has anyone had trouble with TSA and Pal Mickey considering he's got electronics inside him?

Hi all, I have a Disney VISA card, and I know one of the perks is that you can get 10% off a purchase of $50 or more at select locations. Is there any store inside WDW resort that this offer does not apply to? Also, is it necessary to charge the purchase on the Disney VISA card in order to get...

Hi all, If one is on the DDP, do the servers have a preference for cash or credit when it comes to a tip? For my upcoming trip in December, I was going to bring cash for the tips, but I could've sworn I read somewhere on this forum in another thread that the servers prefer credit for some...

We got one every day from housekeeping at POP when we were there- a few ducks, a couple bunnies, and a dog. I didn't approve of it, but DBF loved them so much that he took them home with us. :confused: Does anyone else take these home? What's your favorite towel animal housekeeping has made for...

I am looking into getting a Pal Mickey. I saw it back when I went to WDW in June 2008 but did not get one at the time, and now regret it! I looked up some info on it and only heard what it can do. To those who own, is this a kids-only item or is it an item adults can also use at Walt Disney...

I've got Donald's Safari Breakfast, Chef Mickey's, and Crystal Palace ADRs mostly because of the characters....and also Biergarten. These are all breakfasts and lunches. I generally avoid AYCE places because I wind up eating 3x's as much as I normally would at a regular restaurant where there's...

For our first trip in 2008, DBF and I stayed at Pop Century. For our upcoming second trip in December, he once again wanted to stay at Pop Century, so I booked that. I'm thinking about upgrading to a moderate resort for this trip, but he disagrees and likes the "fun factor" of Pop Century. He...

Hi all, I am hoping you can help me with an answer to my question. I’ve called WDW reservations (guest services & transportation) and can’t get a clear answer...it is frustrating. I was told the resorts usually start running shuttles 1 hour before opening time, but online I read there are...

Hi all, I've been reading mixed reviews when it comes to the Hollywood Brown Derby. We have 5 TS credits during our stay, and am definitely using 1 each for Tusker House, Crystal Palace, and Biergarten when we are at those parks. Is the food at HBD worth using 2 TS credits? Is it that good...

Just wondering if there are any character dining options that are non-buffet. My bf loves the character dining and for our 6-day December trip, we have Donald's Safari Breakfast, Crystal Palace (lunch), and Chef Mickey's (breakfast) reservations. In addition we also have Biergarten. Our only...

What is your favorite WDW Souvenir? (Can be free or purchased) Are there any souvenirs you'd like to pick up on your next WDW trip? My favorite is a Collectible Steamboat Willie figurine with Peg-Leg Pete. A couple of souvenirs I'd like to pick up is a Beer Stein from EPCOT Germany, a family...

Hi all, I got the free Basic Dining Plan during my dates (12/12-12/17) and made my TS reservations. I was just wondering if those on the Dining Plan have different menu options than those who aren't on the Dining Plan and just pay out of pocket? Three of my TS reservations are buffets which...

We are planning to go to WDW the week of my bf's birthday (-he's turning 33). We heard about getting a birthday button and about how some of the characters give the young birthday celebrants special treatment. Are there any adults who have celebrated their birthday at WDW? Any special...

Hi everyone, We'd would like to book dining reservations at the other resorts- California Grill @ Contemporary Resort, and Ohana @ Polynesion Resort. We're flying in, using the shuttles, and staying at POP Century. This is only our second visit so we're still learning about the shuttle system...

Our last trip (which was also our very first) in June 2008, there were many kids crying on the Magical Express on the way back to the airport. My boyfriend (who was 30 at the time) shed a couple of tears on the bus as well. Any other adults who experience sadness leaving WDW? :(

Hi everyone, We are planning to go to WDW, arriving Sunday Dec. 12 and leaving Friday Dec. 17, 2010. We have only been to WDW one other time two summers ago and want to experience it during the holiday season. We would like to go to Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. I have the Disney Chase...

HI all, I just want to know if anyone else has had a bad experience using a travel agency rather than WDW reservation landing. My bf and I went to Walt Disney World in June 2008 (our first time). We decided to book a holiday trip for December 2010 to WDW, especially after watching Samantha...
