    First night dinner?

    We will also be staying at Bonnet Creek later this month, and chose to do Hoop-de-doo our first night, to get a taste of Disney without wasting a park day. It also works out better that way as it won't eat into our park time on a park day as it is a longer meal. That said, while we aren't doing...

    Who is going in December 2022??

    As it turns out, we just returned home on Saturday and 3/4 of us tested positive for Flu A. And we were all vaccinated in the fall. I think with everything going around now, and as packed as DL is, it's inevitable unless you get infected beforehand. I fully expected us to come back with...

    Who is going in December 2022??

    We also missed every opportunity to ride Big Thunder. We just wrapped up a few days and every single time we passed it, it was down. We also used Genie+ one day, and got a couple multi uses out of it. I swear at one point, we wasted almost an hour ping ponging between Indiana Jones and Big...

    Bibbidi Bobbidi.... in Dec?

    Got one here as well! There are still some late morning into evening times available as of this writing. I can finally move my alerts over to dining ADRs...lol.

    For those without ee, how/where is rope drop?

    Would ordering a breakfast sandwich be possible if you're in the park early but not eligible for ee? Also, how early will they let you in to the park if you aren't eligible for ee?

    Who is going in December 2022??

    I believe they are just going fast. I was looking for 6pm on 12/9, and started refreshing right at 6am. Even with that, the closest I could get was 5:30pm. Fair enough. But of course I always screw up and forget there is one last confirmation after giving cc info, and forgot to fully...

    Bibbidi Bobbidi.... in Dec?

    I asked this same question last week, and sadly did not get an answer. I imagine no one knows exactly why. But it's good to know it wasn't just a problem on my end! Sorry that I don't have anything to add. We will be going at about the same time period, so I'll try to post whenever they open...

    BBB in December?

    Does anyone have any insight into why there are no reservations available for BBB in December? It's not just that there's no availability, you can't even search for availability past 11/30. We have a trip planned for early December, and our 60-day is rapidly approaching. Does BBB typically...

    When is Christmas sale at disney springs?

    When we visited mid-December, there was still a bunch of Halloween items out at full price. There was also minimal to no Christmas merchandise available. So I wouldn't hold your breath this year.

    Child Swap and Rope Drop

    In my experience, the entire riding and non-riding party needs to be present at the LL entry area for the swap and prior to the first ride.. They will manually scan and put the rider swap re-rides on the two bands/tickets of the two re-riding (i.e. the parent that stayed behind, and one...

    Child Swap and Rope Drop

    Honestly, we didn't check. It was blissfully a phone-free time as we were rushing back and forth between both rides with a double stroller. The second ride took about a half hour. It's hard to say exactly how long it will take as that is entirely dependent upon how many others are returning...

    Day with 5 year old son- which park?

    AK seems like a natural choice, but a word of warning from experience... My 5 year old hated it. He loves animals, but can also see them at the local zoo. His problem was that he is a full on thrill seeker, and a bit short for his age. So we were left with a bunch of cool rides that everyone...

    Individual Lightning Lane/Rider Swap

    We just got back and I can confirm that you'll only need to get the ILL for the three riders. When you get to the entrance, find the CM near the LL entrance and explain that you want to rider swap and the youngest won't be riding. They'll ask for the bands/tickets for the parent staying back...

    Child Swap and Rope Drop

    Yes, I can verify that you can only hold one. Or at least that is what the cast members said, we weren't willing to test it. Case in point, we had overlapping Rise and Slinky Dog LLs. Due to how long Rise takes, we were concerned we couldn't ride twice before SD expired. So we got rider swap...

    Gideon's still have a long wait every day all day?

    We went last Saturday, got in the queue at about 11am and it was about 3.5 hours before we got our text. Not a big deal for us as we had planned to shop and had a lunch ADR. It did take over a half hour to get in the doors and get our cookies after we got in the "real" line, though.

    Lightening Lane and Dining Reservations Conflict?

    We had conflicts this last trip and went to the ILL CM and she said to go to the ADR for sire and come back later. I had planned to keep the dinner receipt but she said no worries. We came back after dinner and breezed right through.

    Offsite MK ropedrop

    We just finished our trip and can confirm going left if offsite. Get there early and watch the standby times. One morning MK opened quite early (8am), and PP was listed at 15 mins, so we lined up to a very small crowd going to Liberty Square and hooked around for a fast queue. The next visit...

    Off Property

    We are here currently and staying offsite. I knew there would be downsides, but we couldn't pass up the rate on a 2br onsite condo. We took what ADRs we could, even if they weren't out usual favorites. And good news, we found a new favorite! Also, we had knew the Star Wars ILL likely...

    Current RD experience for off-site guests?

    With the ever-changing rope drop experience, I'm curious if anyone has any insight into how rope drop is going for off-site guests? Most of the posts I'm seeing are for early entry experiences. Is MK the only park allowing entry into the park itself prior to opening for off-site? Should we...
