    Any USA entry updates?

    well, it's hardly a sign at all. This just means the US are slightly relaxing things for american citizens. That doesn't say anything about entering the US as far as we are concerned. I guess you could say as long as things move, it's a good sign I'd liken the information you quoted to being...

    Upgrade ticket vs buying AP?

    when you upgrade you need to pay in full. Actually, you've already paid most of the full price with the ticket. Depending on what AP you upgrade to, it can be just a few bucks to upgrade (for example going for 2 parks seasonal AP) few things to consider : - if not going until a few months...

    Rules about entering the US during travel ban

    as you are a dual citizen, and if you hold a US passport (it is required for US entry anyway as you are a US citizen) then from what I can make of the proclamation, you're good to go. But strongly consider the restrictions when you return from your florida trip. It's not just entering the US...

    Face mask policy & children with autism

    If it looks like a mask, it will satisfy the Cast Members. Mask efficiency is another story. The mask as you describe it does not protect you, or the others. It's just the same as if you were not wearing any mask at all. Just because it looks like a mask, does not make it a "mask" (in the...

    No luggage delivery for now with Magical Express

    max size suitcase is about 7.000 cubic inches. Van Hool buses used for DME have a hold that's roughly 1 million cubic inches, or 150 max size checked luggage. That's room enough for 3 of thosehuge cases for each passenger on that bus. The main issueI can see here is not hold capacity, it's an...

    Check the T&Cs before you book. Currently they haven't updated their covid policy (refundable up to 24hrs prior for bookings made before 6/30 and stays occuring up to 8/31 so either they extended those conditions, or they're back to the standard no penalty cancellation if made up to 7 days...

    There is a guest services desk right next to Coldstone Creamery and Red Oven Pizza you might be able to redeem your passes there, but while you are a citywalk, just go visit a ticket booth outside either park to pick up your pass (be sure to bring relevant documents). They're open during regular...

    The great “mask” debate

    in all honesty, it worries me more than it reassures me I won't go into debate, but the most dangerous thing you can do with a mask is repeatedly touching , removing, and readjusting it. Most people will not use the necessary caution when taking the mask off, be it only to lower it below their...

    Universal App Unlinking Passes

    I would guess you will have to visit GS to do that I've had issues with the APP and APs ... the only solution GS offered me was to reissue the APs . (= get a new card) New APs will have new numbers, so they would basically be unlinked (or not linked yet if you prefer) ask GS or call the AP...

    The great “mask” debate

    many (= most of) of those who genuinely are "uncomfortable" with masks are people who don't only have this issue. Chances are, those people will also be people who require Assistance Pass, and who would have visited GS anyway I'm among those people, I can't wear a mask for more than 20 to 30...

    Ap activation at check in at Royal Pacific

    AP vouchers do not expire, AP will only start when you first enter a park. Getting your AP in advance rather than when you're there, has one major benefit : if there is a price hike for the AP, it won't it you

    Making our own Universal dining plan- Charging to room question?

    If you want to manage a daily limit, or some kind of budget you would allocate them without risking them to charge caviar and champagne to your room, lol, you could get gift cards for them. load some money, and they will be able to charge with the gift card (no cash), without charging to the room.

    AP question if trip canceled

    I had forgotten about that thread, but I think I need to update, and say that I can't speak highly enough of UO customer services so, to sum up the situation detailed in a previous post we live in France, can no longer visit during the validity of our APs due to travel bans we have renewed...
