    To Genie+ or not, Lines vs Genie vs rope drop most popular, I'm confused!

    Ah, thank you - I was having trouble finding it on Disney's sites and the guide book, but I see what you are seeing now. Excellent, we will use those for sure! LOL yes - got it! I've always skipped FOP because fear of motion sickness, but this trip I'm going to dramamine up and ride everything...

    To Genie+ or not, Lines vs Genie vs rope drop most popular, I'm confused!

    Our trip is the first week of Nov. We haven't been in over 5 years, and I've read the Genie, LL and virtual queue threads and have to say I'm still wondering how it's all going to work! Trip basics: Staying at Music, doing one day at each park. Just me and DH. Dining reservations in each park...

    Which park to optimize with crowd calendar predictions

    Thanks! We are going before the mvmcp starts though :) But good thought. Maybe if one park ends up having extra evening hours going to one of the others would make sense.

    Which park to optimize with crowd calendar predictions

    DH and I going Nov 1-6, 4 consecutive park days the 2nd-5th, one day each park. Looking at the crowd calendar, I'm trying to decide which parks to maximize the lower crowds. That week MK is between 3-5, Epcot 5-6, HS 6-8, and AK 4-6. Our main priority is HS for all things Star Wars, so thinking...

    Can I reschedule trip? Pointers on going about it?

    Update - I called afternoon. Got a cast member right away. Took a couple people and some finagling with the tickets (I had two days of tickets bought outside the resort package for when DH was at conference in off site hotel) but it's all set! We are now going first week of Nov. Should be...

    Can I reschedule trip? Pointers on going about it?

    We are 8 days out from our trip (me and DH). An immediate family member was hospitilized early last week and needs home care. I did not get trip insurance (of course - that would have made life easier), and other than dining reservations I don't have the option to change anything on the app. I...

    Would this be reasonable? Hotel switch day: AK, eat at Boma mid day, return

    Ended up with a 1:15pm Y&Y, and will get a snack later at Nomad :) Thanks all

    MK solo, no EE - 7am or 1pm drop?

    This virtual queue thing seems unnecessarily complicated and stressful! I am doing 2 days solo at MK in August staying off property so not confident of early arrival of any sort. I have ADR's 2:05pm the first day and 11:40 am the second day. If I want to ride Tron, am I safe waiting for the 1pm...

    Would this be reasonable? Hotel switch day: AK, eat at Boma mid day, return

    Thanks all. We've decided to stay in the park and go to Tiffins, Nomad Lounge or Yak and Yeti. Maybe 2 of the three. My reservation window opens up tomorrow, will see what we can get!

    Would this be reasonable? Hotel switch day: AK, eat at Boma mid day, return

    Just was reading through the Unofficial Guide restaurant reviews and saw that the ones in AKL were at the top. Looking for one or two really nice meals. Will look at Tiffins too! I ate there my last trip (about 5 yrs ago) and it was wonderful. Glad it's holding up!

    Would this be reasonable? Hotel switch day: AK, eat at Boma mid day, return

    Ah, thank you. Bummer. Was hoping to get one mid day avoiding meal time rushes.

    Would this be reasonable? Hotel switch day: AK, eat at Boma mid day, return

    DH will be at at conference in Gaylord Palms Hotel for three days in August, m-w. On Thurs, post conference we are planning on moving to Pop Century in the morning, dropping bags, going to AK for the day. We want to fit in a good meal (assuming I can get reservations) and were pondering looking...

    What would you do - 2 days at MK (both solo), or 2 days at Epcot (1 solo, 1 w DH)

    Disney history: We went once about 10 years ago as a family when dd was 10 and ds 8. Had an amazing trip in large part from help from this site and planning! About 5 years ago DH and I went when he was at a conference, that time it was at swan and dolphin so there were discounted tickets...

    What would you do - 2 days at MK (both solo), or 2 days at Epcot (1 solo, 1 w DH)

    Coming Aug 6-13. DH has a conference off site, so I am going to do two solo park days Aug 7&8. We will do three park days (moving to Pop) Aug 10-12 - AK, HS, Epcot in that order. I'm going to do MK on the 8th, trying to decide if I want to do a second day at MK, or a solo day at Epcot. The 9th I...

    Accompanying DH to Orlando conference, split stay or remain at conference hotel?

    No car, if we stay was planning on using hotel shuttle, or Uber for the day we want to get to the park early. If we move will need to uber between hotels.
