    WDW 5 weeks post bunion surgery?

    I used a knee scooter a few years ago to get around the house with no problem. But when I ventured out to Great Adventure( way less walking than Disney) I lasted about 10 minutes before getting a regular scooter. You use completely different muscles with a knee scooter and I was in absolute...

    OK, but who is Tony Hinds?

    I found Tony on these boards. And I personally referred three other people to him. I’ve also told them all my story. They’re all still going with him, due to time constraints. One already has and had no issues with her driver. Obviously the driver we had is still driving, based on recent...

    OK, but who is Tony Hinds?

    The luggage was delayed due to thunderstorms that kept the baggage handlers from removing the bags on all the flights around our time period. it was an awful mess. We were in contact with the driver frequently during that time. We were his last pickup of the day. I’m sure he, as well as all...

    OK, but who is Tony Hinds?

    Just back, and have a negative story about our trip from the airport to the hotel. I hate to hurt anyone‘s business, and a person from Tony’s office did call to find out why I canceled my return trip. But our experience was pretty unpleasant, and in the interest of helping others void this...

    OK, but who is Tony Hinds?

    Is his online service up and running? I'll admit I'm getting somewhat nervous. I've emailed him a few times since our plans keep changing, due to airline changes (and my granddaughter's marching band camp) and have heard back from him pretty quickly. Hoping he's just trying to work out some...

    Where are all the plushes?

    We asked about it in November, because there were so few plushies available. Supply issues is what we were told.

    Fear of heights and Skyliner

    I love most roller coasters, look straight ahead on the first hill at EE, have no problem now with ToT, after riding it numerous times. Wouldn't go on a ferris wheel to save my life. Grew up in Western NY and also hate Niagara Falls, still have nightmares about it and wouldn't let my kids out of...

    Getting reservation alerts. I’m not fast enough!

    Garden Grill alert just came through at 330 am and I got it. I have alerts set through Touring Plans and Mousewatch. Mousewatch came through.

    I was able to add Genie+ to Dec reservation online - no calling!

    Unless you bought them At Shades of Green, you can’t add Genie until you activate them. Huge bummer for me since we also get in very late Monday night and had MK as our first park on Tuesday. No way we could get there on the bus, activate the tickets and make genie reservations before the park...

    Disney Genie announcement

    I’m in the same boat. Wouldn’t be a problem if we got in a little earlier the night before, but we’ll never make it to Guest Services because we get in so late.

    Disney Genie announcement

    I just tried to add Genie plus for our November trip to our military tickets. It apparently can’t be done online. The message I got was that I need to call my reservation provider or DIsney Reservation center to add. Huge bummer since we get in so late the night before our first park day, we’ll...

    Disney Genie announcement

    I have the exact same concern about military tickets. We get in late on Monday night, around 830 pm. Our first day is Magic KIngdom, where just activating the tickets takes forever. Add trying to get a bus from BOardwalk that morning, and it’ll be way past 7 am before we can buy Genie+ at all...

    Help I Broke my wrist

    I broke my shoulder(humerus bone) 5 weeks ago and leave for Disney two weeks from today. I’ve resigned myself to not riding any bumpy/jolting rides this trip. That’s going to mean sitting outside while my family goes on a lot of attractions. But a lot depends on your circumstances and age; I’m...

    Broken Arm/Shoulder- Traveling to Disney at 7 weeks

    Thanks you all for the suggestions. I'm leaning toward getting a W/C for at least part of the time so I have a place to sit. The more I reevaluate what rides I'm actually going to be able to go on, the smaller the list becomes. And it's always a struggle to find a place to sit outside the rides...

    Broken Arm/Shoulder- Traveling to Disney at 7 weeks

    I fractured my humerus at the shoulder 4.5 weeks ago in a really spectacular fall while bowling. I'm sure it'll show up on uTube at some point lol. No surgery planned. We have a trip scheduled at 7 weeks post fracture, starting Nov. 1, and I think I greatly underestimated the effect it would...

    What can one do for the few ques that are really closed in/claustrophobia triggering?

    We got stuck in the waiting room where they "match" you with your avatar on Flight of Passage. It's a fairly small room and after about 10 minutes it started to close in on me. My son was about to open the door and tell them I had to get out when the ride finally moved on. I'm always a little...

    What’s the wettest you ever got at a Disney Theme Park?

    Was there with my adult son, his wife and my sister. We were spposed to spend the day at Universal but I woke up feeling sick, so we decided to postpone Universal a day. Walked to Epcot from Boardwalk Villas instead. I felt worse and worse, and then the torrential downpour started. I HAD to go...

    Walking- October 2021- 50th Anniversary?

    I’ve never, in 20 years of owning DVC, walked a reservation. But I was kicking myself for not doing it for Jersey week when I needed a standard view 2 BR at BW, our home resort. Due to the only being able to use half of next years pints,, it had to be standard view. And this is a “big trip”...

    Updated 12-24-20 (see post 21) No 2BRs or Studios at BWV at 11 months in any view category for Nov 2021

    I booked a 2 BR standard room at BWV for Jersey week by booking one day at a time. I checked first thing at 8 am and off and on through the day. It took me five days. I also waitlisted, which Member Services said was almost certain to go through eventually, but I felt better grabbing the days as...
