    Genie + in September?

    Many thanks for the advice. I wasn’t against G+ but there have been lots of suggestions that September 2023 is likely to be quieter that previous months.

    Genie + in September?

    Hi all, My son & I are in Orlando between 20 Sept and 4 Oct. We’re about to book a 7 day WDW pass (2 days each park & 1 at AK). My initial thoughts are to skip the first round of G+ in Sept and sign up for G+ in our 2nd round of parks at MK, EPCOT & DHS in Oct. Does this sound reasonable...

    News Bob Iger is back! Chapek is out!!

    So how do we think this news will affect our experience at WDW? I can’t see Genie + being scrapped. Might we be able to book our individual Lighting Lane selections weeks in advance instead of having a 7am bun fight?

    Can I use unused tickets from 2002?

    I still have an unused ticket from 1989. In those days, tickets were stamped.

    What should star tours become?

    If the logistics allowed, I’d move the Star Tours building so the exit would go straight to Galaxy’s edge. So the simulator would take you to Batuu.

    POLL QUESTION

    YES, I would pay the higher prices if it meant getting rid of Genie+ and Lightning Lanes

    Hypothetical EPCOT Wedding Venue.

    Hi all, this is just a bit of fun. If you could get married at any of the EPCOT pavillions for a wedding ceremony, wedding breakfast and party, which pavillion would you choose? You’d have the whole pavillion for you and guests for the whole event.

    Early entry and Good neighbor hotels.

    Hi all, I’m thinking about my next trip to Orlando for September 2023 (Australian school holidays). In the past, I’ve stayed off property and used the savings on restaurants and other activities. Now since fastpass has gone and rides like Rise of the Resistance appear to be difficult to even...

    Dumbest Thing You've Heard a Guest Say

    It was actually at Church Street station back in 1989. A local called out. “Get outta here you god damn tourist. We don’t need your kind.”

    Walt Disney World before the internet.

    Hi all, my first ever trip to WDW was back in September 1989. From memory, I recall going there reasonably ignorant to what was on offer across all of Orlando as there was no internet for another 5 years. My holiday brochure was my only guide. For those old enough, how did you plan for WDW...

    Volcano Bay or Aquatica? Islands of Adventure or Seaworld?

    Hi all, l’m planning a trip to Orlando in September 2022. WDW will feature well in the trip. My teenage sons like white knuckle roller coasters but my wife prefers flat rides. The boys like exciting water slides but my wife prefers to sunbathe. So with this in mind, if I had to pick one...

    Describe your first trip to WDW. How old were you? What year was it?

    As a 19 year old, my first trip was in Sept 1989. Flying in from the UK, a 2 week trip was the only option. We bought a 5 day WDW pass. MGM studios had been open for 3 months but no Universal. We also did Seaworld which at the time had no rides, just animal exhibits. Wet n Wild, Boardwalk and...

    When Did WDW Become An Extended Vacation Destination?

    We weren’t in downtown. We stayed at the Twin Towers (now the Doubletree) opposite Universal. We did 5 days at WDW, 2 at WnW, 1 at SW, 1 at B&B 1 at Tampa and 3 shopping and poolside. So quite busy for 1989.

    When Did WDW Become An Extended Vacation Destination?

    Our group were 19, 20 & 21 years of age so we didn't hire a car except for 1 day to Tampa. The shuttle's to the parks were fine and quite frequent. I've hired a car in all of the other visits.
