    Be our Guest lack of value.

    Remember folks Disney isn't about the Magic, that's a distant memory, It's about the Money, namely how much then can get from you.

    Shouldn't be a problem, call the local number (407-934-4000) during day time operating hours if needed ask for in-house reservations, even with the Marriott call center (888-828-8850) they should be able to assist you.

    @Ross Kratter thanks for checking, something seemed fishy about them when I did my quick look, thanks for digging deeper.

    Work Conferences

    Conference? In person or fuggedaboutit. Training? In person preferred, but virtual if no more then 4-hours/day and aligned with my time zone.

    Making payments on Hotel

    Why give them your money early? Use a saving account to put money into, not so much for the interest, but getting in the habit of saving. Then when you travel you can pay for things.

    Internet Browser

    I don't ever use Google period. My primary web surfing browser with add-on's like NoScript, uBlock Orgin and others is FireFox. For sites I know, trust and shop I use Safari. Because Facebook likes to track it gets its own browser, for that I use Brave.

    Really bums me out hearing poor reviews of Picabu, for us it was our morning go to spot for breakfast. The omelettes and bacon were great. We did go one night and it was also carb heavy we skipped it. When we stayed at POFQ it suffered through their omelettes wishing for Picabu's. The...

    Accessible Minnie Van Availability?

    When I travel and use Lyft/Uber I always carry some extra cash. I ALWAYS tip in the app, but if service is really great I tip extra in cash. Sadly I tip extra less and less it seems as service level has just gone down across the board. When we used the Minnie Van for my wife/scooter we did the...

    How did you get your current job?

    For me after my 1st full time job, which I got by calling a mentor, was through an internal national vacancy list. Today, most of our hires come either though internal advancement (we actively grow our own through training), followed by Indeed or our social media posts.

    Pecos Bill toppings bar

    @kylenne that's a bummer, we haven't been back since 2020, so sad to see that Disney ruined it.

    Pecos Bill toppings bar

    No topping bar sucks, it was one of the great thing about Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe IMHO. But I also get why they won't bring it back... it had to lose them a lot of money - you know letting people fix of their food they way they liked it. Still getting rid of it is an awful thought...

    Living in a home during renovation

    @AustinTink I hate to say it but that's the norm right now - it sucks but sadly its how things seem to be going for more projects - I'd got a roofing, carpet and painting project and all have been delayed for one reason or another. The only one that's on time and under budget was a low voltage...

    Walt Disney World SWAN, DOLPHIN & SWAN RESERVE RESORTS Information & Questions

    I 100% agree. Plus the the Tishman group (company that built Epcot & owns several other hotels) has a 99 year lease on the land with Disney - maybe at the end of that lease Disney will take it over, but they are only 34 years into the lease so I don't see anything happening for a long time.

    Living in a home during renovation

    Based on your concern for your health, I'd encourage you to find an off-site place to live if at all possible. We pulled all our flooring, did kitchen and bath counters, shower and full paint. Thankfully, we had an RV, it was a long 4 weeks, but thankful we were out of the house during the...

    @AustinTink there is a path around along the water, but I think its easier and probably faster to walk through BW then around. You can see the path if you pull up Google maps.

    You know the old saying, Location, Location, Location! hard to beat S/D location. We stayed at POFQ in 2020 as the prices for S/D were much higher. Fact you don't have to take a bus to 2 parks is a huge win. You know the bus situation for MK, for AK I think the bus is actually a better spot...
