    The Genie Usage, Tips and Strategy ONLY Thread

    OK, so does that mean that once you start booking, you can choose ANY return time for your Genie+ AND then you can book your ILL accordingly?

    COVID testing sites near WDW?

    Thanks, someone who traveled recently to Orlando told me to go there too (they didn't) but from what I've seen, even with an appointment, it could be a lengthy wait to get tested. I don't mind paying higher rates because I know I have to pay regardless and I want to make sure we get our results...

    Mid-day Breaks with One Park per Day tickets

    Yes I did get told this, which is why they told me the backpack/harness is better than the wrist ones as those have more give lengthwise and aren't as easy to scale back as the backpacks. I will mostly be resorting to the leash in the event she refuses to hold our hands, but I am working on that...

    Mid-day Breaks with One Park per Day tickets

    We have an ErgoBaby we had since she was an infant and she is not a fan. She is the type that likes to be free lol (we are now practicing the whole "hold hands when its unsafe" thing and its not going well lol. She throws herself on the ground half the time when I get her to the car door >_< ) I...

    COVID testing sites near WDW?

    Thank you, this is very helpful. I also see they are re-opening the Maingate Testing Location, so hopefully, that will still be open when we go. Or God-willing, we won't have to test (though this is doubtful lol).

    COVID testing sites near WDW?

    We will be coming to Disney at the end of March. Currently our country requires all International travelers (regardless of vaccination status) to be tested prior to re-entry. Because all members of my party are fully vaccinated (except for my daughter who is 1, but she doesn’t need a test), we...

    Mid-day Breaks with One Park per Day tickets

    LOL. The last time I was at Disney with a stroller was when I was the one in the stroller (anyone remembers the metal-frame blue strollers Disney had in the early 90s? Lol) , so its going to be interesting. Food may be the only thing we leave behind with the stroller, but it will probably be the...

    Mid-day Breaks with One Park per Day tickets

    Honestly, part of our issue with Disney transportation is COVID (although I realize its silly since we will be around people during the day at the parks :rolleyes2), but also I've always used Disney transportation when going to WDW, and because we are staying at a Value Resort, I always find...

    Mid-day Breaks with One Park per Day tickets

    Yes, that is actually going to be the last park of our visit, so I am hoping by then we got the kinks figured out so we won't have to leave MK at midday. That day we also won't be staying on property, but yeah we already took into account that we gotta do the ferry or monorail from TTC to the...

    Mid-day Breaks with One Park per Day tickets

    Yeah, we are only doing 3 parks because that's the best we could afford on such "short" notice and because also we will be renting a car this time because that seems more feasible with a toddler than trying to maneuver Disney transportation with her. I really hope she naps in the stroller so...

    Mid-day Breaks with One Park per Day tickets

    Hi all. This is probably going to be a silly question but with all the changes that have happened with COVID19, it is a legitimate concern. We will be traveling in March with our daughter who will be 20 months when we go. In order to keep expectations low and save a little cash, we are not...

    Fastpass Waits Are Much Longer Than Trips Pass

    I always go into it with the knowledge that FP+ does not equal to immediate loading on the ride, however, there were several instances this trip where the FP+ was so long that the standby line was grossly affected by it. One ride in particular is Haunted Mansion. In the past year I have come to...

    "Official" Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party 2017 - Believe in the Magic

    I'll be honest, by that point we were exhausted so I didn't want to bother fitting anything else in. If you are not too picky with being right up front for the stage show and are ok, with standing further back, depending on where you stand you could keep the same spot for the parade? Either way...

    "Official" Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party 2017 - Believe in the Magic

    It is, but in my experience last Friday, not by much. We waited roughly 40 minutes to hold our spot on Main Street after the fireworks cleared out some of the crowds. For us, we didn't have kids with us, but it worked out better because we wanted to make sure we got our must-see characters out...

    Thoughts on Wyndham Garden resort?

    So I am here to give an update on how my stay was at the Wyndham Garden Resort. I will start off saying that generally speaking the hotel is nice. The lobby and the rooms are nicely setup and fairly new, so no outdated stuff. I will put below a list of pros and cons: PROS: - decent size rooms...

    Here now - 9:10 and 7dmt still not open - Nov 4

    I was at MK yesterday and for the most part lines were worse than when I was here in August. We joined the Jungle Cruise yesterday when the posted time was 40 minutes. We weren't even halfway through the line when the app changed the wait time to 70 minutes. We literally DID wait a whole hour...

    Fantasmic Dessert Party

    We are doing the Fanatasmic dessert party tonight and I wanted to know if anyone here knows where and when exactly should I go? I think I read somewhere that they recommend you showing up early to guarantee a decent spot within the party seating? Any help will be great, thanks!

    Other things to do at Epcot and Hollywood Studios

    So, I am taking the stance that this trip will be one to "smell the roses". Because sounds like crowds will be a bit on the crazy side, I want to make sure we have something or somewhere to go to kinda get away from the crazy crowds trying to get on attractions. So I wanted advice on what other...

    "Official" Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party 2017 - Believe in the Magic

    So now that the first party is sold out I am getting a little afraid about my strategy. Do you think Sandy Claws or Nick and Judy might start their lines prior to the party starting? I had booked fps for after 4, but I can live if I miss the rides, I just want to make sure that we get to see the...
