    Does anyone know if the new 2015 Mickey Magic band is available to buy online anywhere?, or is it just available at the parks?

    Lion King vs Frozen

    Question to all: What if the Lion King had been introduced in 2014 vs 1994? Would it it have been as popular as Frozen due to social media and the overall media penetration in our lives? I believe it is because of our current times that Frozen is what it is and I believe that the Lion King...

    Fast Pass +

    I have a scheduled trip in Nov. to WDW and I am receiving the new magic bands. I was wondering if fast pass + is available before I go down there or does it become active only when you check into a park? Any feedback would be helpful.

    Has DVC Stalled the Parks and Created Complacency in TDO?

    Clearly, you still get it. I'm done with this thread because you just summed it up perfectly. If I am ever in WDW when you are there, I would like to buy you a drink.

    Dole Whip T-Shirt

    I just got back a week ago and had my first Dole Whip float! It was worth the 30 minute wait in adventure land. I do wish they had more service counters though.With the fans blowing so hard in the booth, it s difficult for the CM to hear the order and you would have to repeat a few times which...

    Home Resorts

    Understood. I guess I was not clear. It sounded like the original poster wanted to link points for that very reason.

    Home Resorts

    I am in the same boat. I will most lilely add more points for BLT in a couple of years. I would suggest checking the timeshare store for the same Use year for BLT, therefore you can utilize the 11 month window for all of your points.

    My (unhealthy?) Disney obsession

    My wife and I are in the double tuition years and fear we we may do a trip like this because it will be a few years where we can legitimately plan one. We will be living vicariously through our post college children using our DVC points over the next few years. At least Fantasyland will be done.:D

    Scooters gone wild!

    Good point. Maybe it was just this trip i saw more. They did not prevent me from doing what I wanted. You just can't help thinking about it after spending 80 minutes in line in 90 degree weather and you see quite a few ECVs going in front of you. Also, when leaving the parks at the end of a show...

    Scooters gone wild!

    Thanks for the reply. I'll look for the lock. It was just very noticeable during our recent trip.

    Scooters gone wild!

    I just got back from WDW last week and I was shocked to see how many electric scooters there are now in the resorts. Everyday I walked out of BLT I saw a new scooter rental truck delivering more for rental. I found myself getting desensitized to people with disabilities because I don't know if...

    Has DVC Stalled the Parks and Created Complacency in TDO?

    Excellent response, you beat me to it. A couple of other things to consider: * DVC members also pay to get into the parks like everyone else and spend money on dining plans and mechandise. * With the dues being paid every year as well I think the DVC members are doing more than the average...

    Any Updates on Test Track Redo?

    I hope not. We have a newbie coming with us on the 4th of June. That will suck if it is down. The only consolation will be BTMR will be back running.

    Soarin' ride queue change

    Good idea! Also, a new east coast version of the video for the ride would be nice. Maybe flying over the Statue of Liberty, Washington DC, Boston skyline and harbor, NC outer banks, etc.

    Soarin' ride queue change

    I was just there is January and those screens were not there. I spent 80 minutes in line with most people sitting in the runway. Every 10 minutes or so, everybody would have to get up and move about 10 feet. I also do FP but I ride this one often and have to endure the long lines sometimes...

    Soarin' ride queue change

    I wish Epcot would add something for the long wait in the Soarin' queue. It remains one of the longest wait times each day and all you get to see are the same limited art scenes on the wall. I think they should show a disney movie while waiting. Maybe one that is considered in the vault and...
