    "Command Performance" at UK pavilion at Epcot?

    Well after some research, the singer of interest is Lea Marinelli, who performs all over WDW - she does Hoop de Doo, SugarVibe at Disney Springs, she's one of the sisters in Hocus Pocus, did the GotG show at the AmGar, not to mention starring in Footloose (including an award nomination), and...

    E-pass transponder not working

    Well this morning two of my four tolls appeared on my account, six days later. And the people at Dollar offered to cut the penalty in half. I requested that they also remove the two tolls from the amount I'll be charged in a couple weeks. Who knows, maybe the other two tolls will show up some...

    "Command Performance" at UK pavilion at Epcot?

    I knew that the Hooligans existed outside of WDW, and it sounds like the female singer is a regular part of that band, you're saying? (I figured that Disney was probably not in love with the name, no matter how much they liked the band.) Sorry to hear that she's at Epcot only rarely, at best...

    E-pass transponder not working

    Resurrecting an old thread rather than starting a similar new one. My last two visits my SunPass transponder has had issues - in January about half of my passes through the toll plazas on 417 didn't register. And on my trip last week none of them did. I can think of two possibilities: 1 -...

    "Command Performance" at UK pavilion at Epcot?

    I'm wondering what you all can tell me about this group. Saw them for the first time last Saturday with a female singer who was knocking it out of the park. but from everything I see online the regular group is four guys. Any of you ever see the other singer before? She had the complete...

    "advanced" waitlist questions

    Really useful information - in particular, that waitlisting does not protect you from the "holding cell".

    "advanced" waitlist questions

    Hi all. I haven't played the waitlist roulette game in a long time, and the rules spelled out on the DVC site feel a little ambiguous. So please bear with me. (Also haven't kept up to date here on the board, so I ask you to forgive a multitude of sins.) My inlaws are the owners, but they're...

    WDW COVID-19 Operational Changes- Reservation System-Rope Drop Procedures

    . . . .hearing from someone at WDI that DAK and Epcot "probably" won't be ready on July 15 anyway. So while today's announcement is "the plan", it may not play out that way.

    How Can You Utilize an Unused, Expired Ticket?

    That's certainly what it's upposed to be, but we've all heard the stories of cast members who 1) aren't as well-versed as they should be, and 2) are certain that they're correct. The other complication is that the ticket was sitting on a profile of a non-existent person that was used just used...

    Hoping Disney treats AP like it is in Shanghai

    Actually this was definitely a plan within the executive offices. (Source - someone who was present in the meetings) It was never announced publicly because it was still in the planning stages, as plans can change at a moment's notice. It may well have already changed, but it was certainly in...

    How Can You Utilize an Unused, Expired Ticket?

    I just spoke with Ticket Services earlier today about this very topic. (Except that my tickets were not date-specific, they just expired at the end of 2019.) One unfortunate thing I discovered is that because my ticket was purchased third-party, using it to purchase a new ticket will have to be...

    Hoping Disney treats AP like it is in Shanghai

    If they follow through on the earlier plans to reopen one park at a time, I would also hope that the clock doesn't start "ticking" again until all four are open.

    For AP holders, seems like the right strategy is to request a refund no?

    Thing that I will be very curious to see is how they interpret "length of time the parks are closed", with the parks reopening at different times, possibly spread out by as much as 3-4 months. And if, as has been suggested, they actively discourage guests over a certain age from coming right...

    Give me Wild Africa Trek tips

    They provided a lanyard that allowed my phone to clip on - so don't worry if you don't have one. I wish I could remember our guides' names. They were both excellent and entertaining.

    I’m so glad I went!!!

    I have enjoyed taking a few minutes to stand near the entrance to Diagon Alley, just to watch the expressions on guests' faces as they walk in for the first time. You could easily tell who the first-timers were!

    How to Use Unused Expired Tickets to Buy New Tickets?

    That doesn't surprise me at all. The instances of funds on a gift card were regarding expired *convention* tickets, which are a different animal. Those were handled at Guest Services in one of the parks.

    How to Use Unused Expired Tickets to Buy New Tickets?

    I had exacly this situation last week. Ticket expired on 12/31 (or 1/14, according to MyDEx, but they mean the same thing). First I went to the Ticket Center at Disney Springs. Figured they were the ticket experts. Nope, they sent me next door to Guest Services. They couldn't help me...

    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    Thanks for the feedback, now that I'm back to the forum I can respond. Disney shows the January date, but that still means *first use* by 12/31, which they don't say anywhere that I encounter frequently. And yes, the date is shortly before 10/16/18, which was the reason I bought this ticket...

    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    I used to be the master of bridging, but this was a few iterations of tickets ago. And now for the first time, I have a (non-date-specific) ticket, purchased in mid-2018, that is going to expire as of 12/31/19 (or, if you prefer, 1/14/20). Since I've only read a tiny bit of this thread, I'm...
