I'm so sorry for their loss but 1. I seriously doubt CMs were laughing - I suppose it could happen and it would be terrible but laughing does not cause death and 2. it specifically states her daughters were helping her out - for this reason. The CMs did not want to be liable if she fell and hurt...

We are usually on a 7:20 flight out of SNA (but we have 4 kids and return rental cars, so it's a bit of a circus.) Last time (a Wednesday), there was a rental car snafu and my husband/kids went through security separately from me. I just checked our verizon bill to get the exact time because my...

I don't have anything to compare to so I can't say "the best", but my husband and I have verizon and used both DAS and genie+ which require a lot of phone use, and I don't remember ever not having coverage. Maybe deep in Soarin? generally speaking we always had service when we were scheduling...

"Once Disney loses the favor of the families who can't afford to go, it will be left with customers who can afford luxury products but will judge Disney accordingly when it falls short. Goodwill can run out, and customers can follow it." Yep. Our last trip in November was it for us for a long...

We have a marriott gig so we've stayed at most (all?) in proximity to the parks. For a family, our two favorites hands down are the Courtyard and the RI at Katella/Harbor. Courtyard: multiple beds, spacious rooms for a non-suite rooms, double bathrooms. Water park isn't totally geared towards...

I'm so sorry. I've posted plenty of times about how I don't think it's worth the money anymore and how impossible hour long waits are with kids and how we're probably done with DLR for the foreseeable future, but it makes me absolutely sick that people are traveling across the freaking world...

That's great! I'm so glad you had a great day. My comment was directed at the poster that intimated we should all just make the best of it - insinuating it wasn't great, but he made the best of it. My point is, if we keep making the best out of what is typically a worse experience than 2019...

Absolutely! Halloween was actually a fantastic day. Standby was 45 mins at worst even for RSR most of the day. We didn't encounter a ton that was broken down. I really appreciate they've left Halloween Screams at DLR and we even got fireworks with the projections. All of that was overshadowed by...

I understand this. I truly do. It would be very entitled to believe you should be able to walk onto all the rides you want and have the perfect day - when we go to DLR, we are sharing the park with tens (hundreds?) of thousands of people and realistic expectations are in place. But. I use...

That's actually really gross (ILL refund), but unsurprising if that's what's going on.

This is absolutely it. Bottom line. It's my husband and I, and 4 kids - 11, 9, 7, 4. It costs us literally $1000/day to be there. ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS. We do our part to maximize- we're there an hour before rope drop, and we're dragging asleep toddlers out at 10pm. Time in the park doesn't...

We recently (10/31-11/2) took a trip and genie+ was basically useless. 1. G+ is only good on some rides, and a lot of times those were fast movers and had shorter lines than the lines without G+ (Dumbo, peter pan, luigi's cars, pirates, etc.) The DAS allowed us to ride things we never would...

We just did. Genie+ helped a little but honestly it was so crowded that DAS was the only way we got on most rides. It was the 6 in my family (2 parents, 4 kids) and the my dad came with us also. The CM I booked DAS Advance with on the phone prior made it sounds like it was impossible to get more...

Agreed with all of it, we just visited Oct 31-Nov 2. We are a family with 4 younger kids that visits at least annually, sometimes 2x a year, for a few days. It's been a good vacation place for us because despite the price, all of our kids enjoy it and it doesn't take a ton of mental preparation...

haha thanks for the validation - I was feeling crazy because I knew I was supposed to be able to, but it gave me that error throughout our 3 day trip!

I know the above response is what everyone says, but we were there Oct 31-Nov 2, and I tried a couple of different times to book before we had hopped. Every time I got an error that said "this guest needs to be scanned in to the above park to book this genie+" or whatever. All times we hadn't...

Totally agree, when just one big ride goes down, everything gets exponentially worse. And it's not a matter of one ride, it's multiple big ticket rides so no one has anywhere to go. That's pretty new in our experience (as of the last year or so) so I'm not sure why all of a sudden the rides are...

Interesting - something weird was happening then, because I specifically got messages saying "This guest must be scanned into this park to make this selection". You also definitely cannot schedule DAS at the other park while you're waiting to hop, which was obnoxious too.

We just got back from a trip where we utilized Genie+ and DAS. Short answer: it depends. Rides with LL available, you will typically wait in the LL. Some of those were 20-30 min waits. Some were much shorter. An exception - space mountain you go through the exit and a CM sends you directly to...

Just got back from our first trip using G+, after many years of paper fastpass, maxpass, and nothing (last year). I wrote a separate post with a trip review which discussed G+ but basically it was worse than I expected and I had super low expectations. My number 1 problem is the parkhopping. I...
