    Park Hours

    I did the same thing and then changed pretty much all ADRs over the course of the last several months. I don't think I have a single reservation that stayed the same. A couple of the more important ones to me I booked twice on two different days just to make sure I got one that worked for us.

    Flight of Passage + People of Size = Disappointing

    This has made me feel so much better! I leave a month from tomorrow and this ride has kinda stressed me out. I am also 5' 5" and around 280 lbs (which I plan to try to lose some between now and the trip too). I carry my weight pretty evenly distributed. Thank you for the update, you have...

    Should we keep hoppers?

    This is exactly what I was thinking. We have only ever hopped the past 2 times we have been to WDW and we love the freedom. I couldn't do Disney without them, but I understand to others it's a waste of money especially in OP's case where they have their days planned and don't even need them.

    Fast Pass questions?

    We are going Jan 8-16 so my FP day was Friday. I am in CST zone so I had to be up at 6 am to book and got everything I wanted and then some for 5 people without any problems. I actually only booked SDD for 2 days, FOP for one day, and 7DMT for 3 or 4 days and then went back later that night...

    Fast pass day tomorrow [11/9], please help, I'm nervous

    Thank you all! I had no problem getting SDD on days 60+ 2 and 60 +4. I also go 7DMT on 3 different days. I got FOP on our AK morning day. I didn't even book them all yesterday morning, I just did the harder to get ones and then late last night filled in the rest.

    Fast pass day tomorrow [11/9], please help, I'm nervous

    Thank you all! I think I have a better understanding of how I should go about it. I knew to get SDD and FOP later in the trip but that was about all I knew for sure to do. This is helpful! I may do it this way too, unless I can get a couple SDMT FPs then I might change it a up a bit.

    Fast pass day tomorrow [11/9], please help, I'm nervous

    Yes, I've read it ad nauseam.....it's just so overwhelming to me, especially since we are hopping, it makes it harder to figure out our days. Do we book the morning FP or do the evening? Can we do a combination of both and if so, would that be a smart move? UGH, I just don't know.

    Fast pass day tomorrow [11/9], please help, I'm nervous

    I had planned to figure this out all on my own but I'm overwhelmed and afraid I'm gonna mess something up. Could anyone please help me figure out what I should do? We have 8 day PHs. We love thrill rides, my kids are all older, 18, 15, and turns 13 right after we get home. We purposely got...

    Best way to purchase/use Disney gift cards for meals in the parks

    I have some printouts for Landry's that we are going to use at WDW. I wonder if it would work to take a pic of the barcode and numbers so you wouldn't have to remember to bring the printout with you?

    How Long Does It Take You to Get Ready

    None of us shower at night so we all do it in the morning. There are 5 of us and it takes about 45-an hour for all of us to get showered, dressed, hair done, and eat. We have always been able to get ready and out the door quickly, even when the kids were little. We have our routine down to a...

    *** January 2019 Thread ***

    I've been on the boards for awhile but never knew about this thread. My family is going to WDW Jan 8-16. The last time we were to DW was March 04 when my oldest two were 3.5 and 6 months. We have been to Disneyland in April 2010 when all three kids were 9, 6, and 4. They are super excited to...

    Christmas as kids grow up

    My dd is now 18 so this is something that I really need to start thinking about and hadn't. I do not spend a certain equal amount on my kids and never have. Most years it is pulling teeth to get my 2 boys to even make a list because they don't even want anything. My kids give me a list of...

    Best way to purchase/use Disney gift cards for meals in the parks

    Yeah, I'm on a bunch of Swagbucks FB groups and everyone was so disappointed when it changed. No one knows what to cash our their SBs for now. I've been getting the reduced Visa but then you can't get another discount because it can only be used online.

    Best way to purchase/use Disney gift cards for meals in the parks

    This changed several months ago. You cannot use any gift cards to buy another gift card at Target in store or online.

    Peter Pan’s Flight to be closed for refurb in January

    Awww man, we miss it by 2 days! Well, that frees up a FP I can book on another ride and not worry about RD it either.

    Mission Space - what to expect

    I completely agree with this. I rode the orange side when I was in my 20s and could ride everything. I had the worst headache of my life after and regretted it. I am now in my 40s and I can ride any rollercoaster and rides like Star Tours without issue but I will not chance the green side for...
