    Just to remove the stress leading up to taking the last flight of the day and not having a plan B if that flight is canceled, I had Southwest switch my flight to KC to Denver to Seattle, leaving at 11:40 AM and arriving at Seattle at 5:20 PM. Hopefully, my bags make it at the same time but if...

    The only thing that I have going in my instance is that my flight, if on time, will arrive in Seattle (direct flight that stops in Phoenix) at 1 AM. My flight to Singapore leaves at 10:20 AM That leaves me 9 hours between flights. Only a cancellation will affect me. I’ll wait a few days...

    Not Orlando related, but I’m flying SWA from KC to Seattle on August 31. The last flight of the day, leaving at 8:50 and arriving at 1:10 AM. I am leaving the next morning at 10:20 AM on Singapore airlines for Singapore and then Bangkok. There are lots of flights to Seattle but, for that day...

    When did you know it was time to sell?

    I’ve sold 2 of my 3 contract, keeping a 30 point contract that I bought direct. For now, I’ll keep it, if only for member perks. In 4 years, I’ll offer it to my son. If he doesn’t want it, I’ll sell because my wife and I will be retiring overseas. All of the hoops that you have to jump...

    Has anyone used Turo to rent a car?

    I rented a car through Turo for 10 days. I stayed on Disney property the first 3 and last 3 days. The other 10 days at an Airbnb off of 192, where I needed a car. The host lived 5 minutes from Magic Kingdom and the only cost over the $30 a day charge, was $15 each way to pick up car and...

    Came home with more than just memories........

    I just got back Thursday night by plane. We went to Universal and Disney from June 12-28, no masks and so far no Covid. I’m flying to Thailand September 1. I figured that I will be in the air 26 hours and at airports 28 hours, so I’ll be wearing an N 95 mask as much as possible, except when...

    Moonlight Magic AK

    We got to Animal Kingdom around 4:30 with my son (with AP’s) and got our wristbands at the DVC booth on the way to Pandora with no wait. I thought that forgetting my drivers license would be a problem but was not, or I would have had to go back to Old Key West to get it. We did Genie Plus...

    Tamper your expectations. You won’t see Pandora like the picture, completely empty.

    Miracles never cease. I received an email from DVC, saying i had a reservation for 2 for tomorrow night. We plan on getting there around 6 and will still be wearing my Moonlight Magic slinky dog shirt and MM animal kingdom cap. If anyone from this board sees me, please say hello.

    Are you considering not renewing your Annual Pass?

    My AP still has until After Thanksgiving before it expires, so I may have a Thanksgiving trip in the future, although that’s doubtful. So far, I’ve gotten 6 weeks out of this AP. I’m actually in Orlando now, finishing up on Thursday a 16 day trip. I bought it early pandemic for $530 with...

    Moonlight Magic AK

    It looks like I’ll be down to my final option on reservations for Tuesday night’s Moonlight Magic at Animal Kingdom. I plan on being there at 6 and getting into the Single Reservation Line. It’s similar to a Single Rider Line, but is used by Cast Members when a group has fewer people than what...

    Isn’t Old Key West a deluxe Disney resort? I’ll be checking into there that day. Actually, I’ve already done their pre check in, so I should be good to go at 7 AM. I’ll call Disney to confirm. I’ve already been cheated out of Moonlight Magic by Disney. I don’t need any more surprises from them.

    I’ll be checking into Old Key West Monday, July 25. we have AP and a park reservation at Epcot. I assume that I can get (if available) aVQ at 7 AM (I’m staying at a timeshare at highway 192 and won’t be at OKW until noon at the earliest) and use it anytime until closing at 9. We plan on...

    If anyone has 2 extra reservations to Tuesdays MM, my son and I were shut out twice on trying to get them. If you are staying off site, I can get 2 people into extra night hours at either Epcot on Monday, or Magic Kingdom on Wednesday, or both. Just PM me.

    Moonlight Magic AK

    I bought 2 Premier Pass Universal Annual Passes this morning. I had a nice day at Universa, exploring rides that weren’t around the last time that I visited Universal Studios 30 years ago. I paid less for a Premier Pass than a comparable pass from Disney. No park reservations, no blackout...

    Moonlight Magic AK

    It doesn’t bother me much but I’d like my son to experience it. If not, he will have memories of his Universal Studio’s week starting Monday. on the first day of registration for onsite guests, I had number 9,000 and came within 100 of making the cut. Last Wednesday, I got 1,100 and came...
