No LL for international guest ?

You pre-authorize the card. Either way, you hand over card details.

And besides, payments aren't covered by regional privacy legislation. They fall under payment card industry standards, which are international.

I think the online safety act (UK) / digital services act (EU) cover money laundering. It could be to do with purchasing something non-tangible.

Rolling it into the ticket cost may be the way they have to go, if that’s the case.

People hated park reservations. Now they are queuing up to pay Disney for them. Go figure.

I'll see how the land lies in November but now I'm thinking I'll be doing a 14 day Universal stay with one or two day trips to Disney when I plan my big family vacation.

They’re laughing at all the people desperately trying to buy what used to be free…

Just to be clear, are you referring to the people who were "demanding" pre-booking of Genie+ which Disney has responded to, or the international people who will be disadvantaged by domestic guests booking up popular attractions and slots first? Just to make it known that the latter group don't necessarily want pre-booking and are not "queuing up" to pay nor are they desperate to pay, in case there is any misunderstanding, I certainly don't want to pay for things that used to be free, but I also would like ot have the same privileges as domestic guests when picking slots and given the same chance. I take it you're both referring to the first group? Or were they snide comments directed at international people who are complaining about the restriction on app usage? If neither group, who exactly were you referring to?

Neither. And both.

 

[osian]

Neither. And both.

Could you explain why you think neither and both groups are desperate to buy things that used to be free, and what made you think that?

No need. Just see how many people buy paid fastpass.

Ha! You’re supposed to book LL once you’ve landed and are waiting for baggage to drop, slacker.

I'm sure family's will have enough on there plate trying to get everyone together, and praying there luggage arrives in one piece, before trying LL pass, Slacker !!

With that, a good sense of humor and a tiny bit of sarcasm makes stressful situations a bit easier. Not everything was literal. Enjoy.

Almost enough to put you off the whole proposition and go elsewhere.......

Used to work. Doesn’t any more on the App.

You need a GPS spoofer app, not a VPN. I tried it with Cartage and it seemed to work.

Don't think that exists for iPhone users though?

 

[GigglesMcSnort]

It works just fine with a VPN + a GPS location spoofing.

With an iPhone, you need to plug it into a computer, and use a desktop app like Dr. Phone or iTools.

Useful to know, thanks!

Perfect excuse to start your stay at a Universal hotel, enjoy those parks, book your LL and then move over to Disney. That’s what we’ll do when we book, so long as Universal don’t pull their own shocker with the 1 day entry to Epic that is rumoured for 14 day tickets.

Regarding the VPN strategy, could the GPS issue be worked around by doing everything on a computer through the website rather than on a phone through the app? If I’m not mistaken, computers don’t track GPS.

The LL system is only on the app.

However there is now a method circulating which seems to work, without having to use a GPS spoofing tool.

I haven’t read any first hand accounts yet though.

Weird—I had assumed you could make reservations on your computer as with the old FP+.

Glad a new, potentially workable method has emerged!
