    Anyone know what's up at DCA August 24?

    Hi All - the daily schedule was just released for August 24 and it says DCA closes at 9 for a "Special Ticketed Event" from 9-1 but there's no other information. It's not listed as an Oogie Boogie day and I can't find any other info. We will be there that week and I'm just wondering what's up...

    Which entrance is best for DCA early entry-front gate or GCH's?

    Just got back - we stayed at the Grand and did early entry both mornings. I can tell you that it was a lot of chaos and frustrating at BOTH entrances from the hotel. People were merging into the courtyard from all directions and there were security people at the check stations but no one...

    Help me with a gift/surprise!

    I am coming with friends Aug 22-25 to celebrate one of us finally retiring! We are staying at GCH and I want to do something extra… the Disney bouquets were discontinued with Covid and aren’t back, and all the Disney Travel company has are birthdays and welcome packages and they’re ridiculously...

    Blue Bayou is open!

    FYI I just got a Blue Bayou reservation for August 24 - I got there through a link on the Fantasmic package page, but as you said it just says to "request a Fantasmic voucher when you're seated." Makes me a little nervous that it's not guaranteed, but I guess we'll see!!

    Timing for Holiday Decorations?

    My sis and I will be going to DLR for a long weekend Nov 5-8. I know the official start of the Festival of Holidays, castle lights, etc., is November 12 but what are the chances we will be treated to some decorations / festivities early? Do things start changing right after Halloween? Other...

    What if Boarding Gr time conflicts w/ dining resos ?

    We had a similar conflict with Savi's Workshop. Our workshop time conflicted and we weren't sure what to do - we stopped at ROR on our way to Savi's and they said go to Savi's and they would let us on ROR late - just show our receipt or our light saber. My son was freaked out because he didn't...

    Oga’s - Lots of Ressies Just Became Available

    If you don't have luck, keep trying, too - we were there two weeks ago and I got a reservation the day before we went - probably someone cancelled. I had been trying every day with no luck, but all of the sudden...

    Another package to try, this one for Festival of the Lion King **(reviews start on page 5)**

    Thanks - at Disneyland most of the dining packages still get AP discounts but I haven’t used my premier pass at WDW this year.

    Another package to try, this one for Festival of the Lion King **(reviews start on page 5)**

    We're going tomorrow! I have been off the DisBoards grid for a couple of weeks and stumbled on this package when I was looking for dining at Animal Kingdom. We have a 2:00 lunch res and a 5:00 show with FPs for Everest in between... so we'd probably better lay off the dessert before the roller...

    Thanks! I did a search on this site and didn't find anything - that was super helpful.

    Anyone try the Lion King Signature Dining Package?

    Thoughts? I read the info online -- it says you get lunch at Tiffin's, a voucher for the Lion King Show reserved seating and a "VIP Safari." Wondering specifically about the safari -- anyone do this? Is it basically the same as the regular Kilimanjaro safari? Thanks!!

    Realistic Timing for Magical Express??

    I haven't used ME for my last several trips but my 3 friends and I (all adults) are considering it for October. If our plane lands in Orlando at 3 pm, what time can we realistically expect to arrive at Pop? And what time can we realistically expect our luggage to be delivered? We have tickets...

    Need some Kidani Basics...

    I'm staying at Kidani for the first time in late October. We've never stayed at AKL at all -- just visited for dinner. Can someone help me out with links and/or basic info? Specifically I'm wondering about the differences between the main lodge and Kidani, what people think, how the...

    FP Question: AP holder traveling with non-AP holders

    I am the proud owner of a new Premium AP. I have been an AP holder for just Disneyland before but never WDW. I think I have read up on all the "perks," but I'm curious about FP+. In October I will be traveling with two friends who don't have APs. We will all be in the same room at Pop for 4...

    2 parks, less than 2 days. Doable?

    Your biggest advantage will be going EARLY on your second day. We just got back and did a TON with little or no waiting. First decide which park has more "headliners" that you want to ride, and go there first thing on your early day. Here's what we did on our early DCA day using MaxPass...

    Fireworks show changes this Friday - plus pics from the park today

    I'll be there Friday and Saturday so I'll be keeping an eye out for changes to the decor. Not gonna lie, I'm excited to see what happens. And if the new fireworks are at all like the 60th, it should be good!! I'll try to post pictures early Saturday in case that helps anyone.
