    Unsettling “security” checks.

    No offense but if you had a relative in Las Vegas that fateful day you would’ve wished a policy like this was in effect. Don’t blame Disney for the world we live in. Remember the Orlando shooter was considering Disney as a target and was deterred by security presence. It’s a small inconvenience...

    OK, what could Disney do in the parks that you would actually like?

    The number 1 thing I’d like to see is a led bridge between Grand Floridian and MK. As a frequent monorail resort guest I believe it would reduce monorail crowding, save time getting to the GF or even Poly, and allow runners a complete loop before eating Mickey Bars and Churros all day. Not to...

    Parking fees at Resorts

    I only know two ways to avoid paying parking at the resorts. 1. Become a DVC member 2. Take magical express from the airport It you want to go through the hassle you could park offsite near the airport in a cheaper lot that offers an airport shuttle, then use ME. Some of those lots are $4 per...

    Parking fees at Resorts

    Was there a new announcement? Last time I checked AP holders don’t pay for parking at parks and they can’t charge DVC members to park at resorts. We fly in, rent a car for $20 per day and have our own express transport around WDW. Adding the TiWL card even gets valet included. So, if you are a...

    DVC Resale vs Direct

    One “perk” to buying direct is you decide your contract(s) size and use year. My strategy was to buy several small contracts rather than one large for the following reasons: 1. Multiple kids to split them to when I’m too old to go. 2. If I want to sell some or all points in the future I have...

    FPs tomorrow. How long did it take you to make them?

    The only fast passes that could be difficult 60 days out right now are slinky dog and flights of passage. I suggest getting those first and if you want those fast passes they may only be available for later in your trip, then go back and fill in everything else. I also suggest going back in and...

    Carnival-style games at DW

    All of those games in Dinoland are rigged in your favor to win in that they mostly require only two people to play-like a parent and a child, or two siblings,so you know one of you will win and your kid will be happy. In my experience most people become aware of the situation and don’t ruin it...

    Taking a break in the day back to the hotel. Pros and Cons

    In my experience, my kids love the pool as much as the parks. When they were little, we went to the parks at opening, stayed until it got crowded/hot, around noon or 1, went back to the pool while we relaxed on pool chairs. When it got cooler we would go back to the parks. If you go this route...

    Do you use park hopper is it really worth it?

    Depends. When my kids were little, we went to a park in the morning, they wanted to swim in the afternoon and were usually too tired to go back to a park at night. So I guess, think about your group when making the decision. Now that they are older we use park hopper more. Also there’s not much...

    Last day for the torch lighting at the Polynesian

    Hey everyone, Just a few thoughts. I love the Poly, I've been staying there religiously for the last 7 years since my daughter was born. I love how it seems so steeped in tradition. However, I only could afford to stay there because of the 35% off they always offered and I am super excited...
