    Moderate / value alternative to POFQ?

    It looks like the pools at CBR will likely be closed as well, so unfortunately that resort is definitely out. I did like the idea of the Skyliner but a pool is a must for all the kids.

    Moderate / value alternative to POFQ?

    I’ve read in other threads that room requests are often not granted - have you found that to be the case?

    Moderate / value alternative to POFQ?

    I love Port Orleans French Quarter but the pool is going to be closed in the spring when we’re planning a big family reunion style trip. I haven’t stayed at many other resorts. For those who love the vibe of POFQ, is there another moderate or value that you feel has a similar charm? I absolutely...

    Do you think a new improved version of The Disney Store will make a comeback someday?

    I was thinking the same thing. We have a BoxLunch at a mall nearby and they have more adult Disney merch than the Disney store ever did (that I recall.) From what I can tell the Disney “store-lets” at Target are their new strategy for brick and mortars. A shame because I’m not a huge fan of...

    What's your take on it?

    Interestingly, I did just eat at a restaurant (local, not Disney related) that had an “inflation surcharge” of somewhere between 3-4%, added to the final bill. There was a note on the menu explaining that they needed to do this in order to cover rising expenses and hoped it would not be...

    BOG worth it with grandparents who haven’t seen the film?

    I probably should have been more specific - I don't even think they know who Belle and the Beast are, so the pictures in the library, dancing Beauty and the Beast statue, and falling rose petals (really the whole West Wing) wouldn't make sense to them. Like "Why the heck are we eating in a room...

    2023 Epcot International Food and Wine Festival Information and Planning Thread

    A question… what is a general range for line wait times at festival booths, on a relatively busy day (more specifically, 7 or 8 out of 10 on the crowd calendar, early afternoon)? I realize it’s going to be a broad range but I have no idea if I should be thinking in terms of minutes or hours...

    New Table Service Restuarant opening on August 28th at Epcot's Japan Pavillion

    Came to this thread wondering the same thing. It’s summer now so I assume it should be opening soon, but I haven’t seen any updates.

    BOG worth it with grandparents who haven’t seen the film?

    Four full days, one resort, one Epcot two Magic Kingdom. In part because all my son’s favorite rides are there and in part because my in-laws weren’t able to visit when they were younger so Magic Kingdom is the park they dreamed about visiting. That’s why I’m hoping to get in the “classic”...

    BOG worth it with grandparents who haven’t seen the film?

    Good to know! I’ve never eaten at CRT and in my mind it was a more formal experience than BOG.

    BOG worth it with grandparents who haven’t seen the film?

    Thanks for all the input. I had thought about CRT but don’t think my son would do well with the somewhat more formal setting as he has trouble sitting still. Also thought about just going over to Chef Mickey’s but since I’m hoping to get Garden Grill and Crystal Palace, that seemed like a lot of...

    BOG worth it with grandparents who haven’t seen the film?

    We will be traveling to Disney with my son’s grandparents who have never been before, and spending most of our time at Magic Kingdom. I’m hoping to get reservations for Crystal Palace for one day of the trip as that’s the most obvious choice for our group. I’m on the fence about Be Our Guest as...

    Anxious Dog Help

    My kitty (now passed away) was anxious and would groom until bald. I had good success with pheromones diffusers and collars. It looks like they make them for dogs too, so that might be something to try.

    Least Crowded Week in November

    Aside from Jersey Week, you’ve got Election Day and Veteran’s Day combined in the first week of November. Schools here are in session like one or two days that week and the rest are holidays or teacher workdays.

    Questions about French Quarter Ferry

    Thanks for the info… sounds like transportation to DS is fairly manageable!

    Questions about French Quarter Ferry

    Will be at French Quarter in December and wondering how long the ferry ride is to Disney Springs, and also how long the line is during busy times like the holidays. I was hoping to travel back and forth to Disney Springs a fair bit for snacks and meals but am wondering if that’s realistic. I’ve...
