I was just there Thanksgiving week on the DVC side and couldn't even tell there was a construction site. There was zero impact for us and the walk to the TTC was so convenient! I would do it (DVC side only)
I used Mears Connect at terminal C last week/today. It was very easy to find and check in. We did not get a bus, it was a shared van to the resort and back (which we were not crazy about) but there was very little waiting and it was a quick trip. They sent texts and emails letting us know they...
Recently back after a great trip from 4/17-4/23. We got ROR boarding group 32 using no special tricks other than my 14 year old's fast fingers. Had delicious meals at CA Grill, Raglan Road, BOG, Le Cellier, Hollywood Brown Derby and Grand Floridian Cafe. Rope dropped most mornings and walked on...
New Englanders - I have found that Minute Maid makes a zero sugar Mango Passion fruit juice that I get at Market Basket or Hannafords. Its not the same, but its close enough when I need a POG fix, especially for POG mimosas!
Also have a flight from Logan to MCO in April that was changed by a couple of hours. I had booked 2 separate reservations for me/daughter and my mother (trying to use up out JetBlue credits from having to cancel last May) and they must have canceled the original flight because they ended up...
Type 1 diabetic here. I generally eat low carb for medical reasons and have found Disney to be very accommodating with the veggie substitutions, but haven't found anything like cauliflower rice as an alternative. Also a big yes to the charcuterie boards!
First time at Boardwalk Inn and I'm excited! I have a standard room booked, but was thinking about upgrading to the water view because I think my mother would enjoy the view. My question (since I'm not familiar with the layout): are the water view rooms further away from the lobby? Or are they...
You'll be fine. I missed the 180 days for my most recent trip and still got what I wanted - including a 10am Mother's Day brunch at California Grill. I've gotten CRT a few days before arrival. You may just need to be patient and keep trying for ADRs or use the Touring Plans reservation finder...
The thing with the tips is that on the dining plans, it raises the overall cost of the tip. With the dining plan, I'm going to order more food, because its included. But that also increases the overall cost, therefore the overall tip. I think people see it as "I would be tipping anyway" but when...
I'm having the same issue planning for my 67 year old mother. I'm thinking she'll like 50's Prime Time because of the classic comfort foods. And she will like Teppan Edo and Yachtsman. But I'm dreading our lunch at Yak & Yeti because I'm afraid she'll eat nothing.
Same as above. I thought I wanted a balcony, but the patio (at least at the Poly) was my favorite part of the room! It felt like so much more space than a balcony, and we had cute little Disney bunnies hopping by which my daughter loved!
We did this last year and they could NOT guarantee that we could keep the room until the day before the second reservation. But thankfully, we were able to keep the room.
This exact thing happened to me last year at the Poly. The guy told me he was taking care of our bags and I said "that's great, thank you!" I had no idea I was supposed to tip until after when my husband scolded me. I don't travel much so I wasn't down with all the tipping scenarios!
Anyway, I...
Wow, a I've noticed a lot of Disney lovers are in IT!
Something nobody has brought up: you have to take into consideration there are a lot of people who stay Deluxe that can't actually afford it. They are putting the cost on their credit cards and just paying the minimum. The pressure to keep...
This thread fascinates me as I've always wondered the same. We stayed at the Poly last year with a great discount from the TA frequently mentioned on the DIS (thanks for the tip, DIS friends!). We'll be staying at the Beach Club with a discount in 2019 as well.
I am a lower level supervisor at...
We had a window seat and still went outside to watch because it was just a beautiful view...though I'm sure if we had stayed in our seats we would have had a view of other guests' backsides! I think you should make the later ADR and go outside to watch the show. It was one of our favorite...
