    Everything Virtual Queue - Please Read Posts 1 and 2

    Thank you for this info. Your post was the only one I saw that said you can add people to your BG an hour before it opens. Other posts said you could add any time, and I could not figure it out. But when I got up today at 6:30, it showed all people I could add, as described here. Thanks...

    FP+ day - hoping Disney Plus downloads don’t kill the system

    I have my list all set up for a FP sign up in a few hours. We are a group that is not doing thrill rides, so I hope it will be easier. Just downloaded Disney Plus and now I can watch the Avatar movie to maybe try to understand the hype!

    Only one pair of shoes? Opinions needed!

    Crocs for 65 miles walking on my last trip - 8 days - 6 at Disney 2 at Universal. I also brought closed shoe sneakers because we did the behind the scenes trip at AK and you had to wear closed shoes. I love my Crocs, but I do worry sometimes about losing them on rides and they can be...

    Apple Watch Bands

    I am looking at Disney themed bands for my Apple Watch. I found some on eBay and Etsy, but will not by from China or Eastern Europe because of shipping delays. I already paid for custom Magic Bands, but want a new watch band too. Does anyone have a good place to buy a band online? I could...

    New Vendor Drop-Off Policy? Update: CONFIRMED exclusive drop off vendor = Scooterbug

    I read that one vendor is opening a location at the airport? Did anyone else see that. Also would the vendors go to a building now and not just the lobby? I am staying at Saratoga Springs which has parking near all buildings. I am renting a Hoyer lift and scooter. Our plan is for my husband...

    Flight of Passage + People of Size = Disappointing

    I am going to Pandora for the first time. I am 6’2” and heavy, but I usually fit in rides. Looking forward to it. My 2017 trip, my daughter and I did 7 Dwarfs. We had 3FP, since my husband didn’t want to ride. She was going to another FP after and me to another 7D. I was so uncomfortable...

    Marathon avoidance

    Our first day is 1/12/20, which is the full marathon day. We want to do Star Wars at rope drop, then hop to MK. What is the order the runners go through the parks? We are going to drive from Saratoga Springs, because we have a wheelchair van and hope it will be faster with the traffic changes.

    Walt Disney World Skyliner Gondola cabin video, photos, info.

    I hope to be able to get our party on this for an afternoon ride not really for transportation, but just to ride it. I think it will be relaxing if not in a busy time. Maybe we will have lunch on the Boardwalk near Epcot and just do a loop for the fun of it. If crowds are too much, we're out...

    Anyone have success with crowd/which park day calendars?

    I used TGM like crazy back in the day. But that was long before Pandora, Toy Story Land, Star Wars, Frozen Ever After and Magic Bands. We always had a FP runner for the paper FPs and came back with a handful of them for later use after our break. See the Line Eliminator below :) I always...

    FastPass+ FAQ — SERVICE SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

    I was reviewing the nicely explained tiering post #8 for my personal spreadsheet. My view of the list shows Meet Disney Pals in Epcot and Beauty and the Beast in Studios in white (or other close to white) text color, so I had to highlight it to see the attraction names. I have to assume it is...

    MK Railroad - down for how long?

    That stinks. I am traveling with my son who is in a wheelchair. He liked to be on the bridge watching Splash Mountain while some of us ride it, then we all take the train out. It was usually our last ride before a break. So much easier than pushing him after hours of touring.

    After Hours questions

    Too bad. The Disney website still has the photos of DHS in their Disney After Hours page. I am going in Jan, so I was hoping it would be something like 8pm-midnight, after 8PM closing. That would work so well for my vacation. Maybe when the second ride opens in SWGE in December, they will...

    Epcot, what a pain to get in!

    Our party has a person in a wheelchair and there was a separate place once when we went. We know we will be a longer group to check with bag on the back of the chair, and another bag with extra supplies for a longer day. I hope there is better flow by January when we go.

    Everything PhotoPass & Memory Maker

    When we used Photopass a few years ago, my DH and BIL used scooters. They parked the scooters nearby and walked to the photograph spot. Not an issue. My son cannot leave his wheelchair, and we just surrounded him as we do in photos at home. If your BF can’t crutch to take a photo, you can...

    Isn’t that how AK is if you RD and don’t do Pandora?

    Is the daily Times Guide (right name) available online?

    I am touring with 5 people, two are disabled. We are doing A LOT of slower things like watching parades, the music shows, bands, street performers. This is very different for me, since even when my daughter was 6, we did all the thrill rides! My son is in a wheelchair and cannot transfer, so...

    Where is rider swap area for FOP

    My non rider is a disabled person in a wheelchair who cannot transfer. We are doing a combo of Rope Drop, FP and DAS (only is used for rides this person can stay in the chair on and ride with us - IASW, TSMM, etc). We are wondering if swapping is used for disabled persons, and the Disability...

    Where is rider swap area for FOP

    It makes sense someone who can’t ride can’t be in line. I don’t know why I didn’t realize it. I just thought they leave where the ‘chicken out’ people leave. I get it now. Also some of the long lines are interesting so I thought we would all be together waiting, then swap at boarding area...

    Where is rider swap area for FOP

    I was wondering how rider swap works for Flight of Passage. I have never been on it, and we all want to see the line area. Do we all go together then group 2 waits at the loading area? I haven’t done rider swap either 😁
