    Universal Hours?

    I'm having the same issue. I want to know what their hours typically are in April and can't seem to find it with a google search.

    Undercover Tourist

    We've always bought our tickets through them. Never been disappointed.

    Disneyland hotels reservations?

    I'm wondering as well! This will be our first time to Disneyland (we usually go to WDW) and I keep wondering why I can't make hotel reservations yet...

    Disney's CONTEMPORARY RESORT Information & Questions

    We just got back from our trip and stayed 3 nights in BLT w/ rented DVC points. We had a lake view room, which actually directly overlooked pool and lake. We were on the 5th floor, which at first I was disappointed about b/c I wanted to be higher up, BUT I ended up loving it since we were just...

    Booking a package trip or separately?

    We have always booked separately. We book our rooms through whichever site is cheapest -Disney, Undercover Tourist, Expedia, etc. We buy our tickets from Undercover Tourist through the link in the mousesavers.com newsletter (subscribe to get the newsletter, this is the only way to get the link...

    MK closing at 6pm in October??

    Thanks all. I was just using the touringplans calendar as my guideline, and they were still showing 7, so I just didn't think about it. We are planning on going to MK two days anyway, so I think overall we'll have enough time. It just hurts me to use a ticket at a park that's only open from 9-6.

    MK closing at 6pm in October??

    I just got a notification that park hours have been released for the week of Oct. 13 and on Sunday the 14th MK is closing at 6pm?! I realize the MNSSHP is taking place several days that week, but usually the park is open until 7pm on those nights. If it's closing at 6 now, that is a real...

    October

    We've been in October 2013 and 2016 (and will be there this Oct). 2016 was more crowded than 2013. October is becoming a lot more popular. The weather, on average, is pretty nice (some days were still very hot). Fall decorations are fun. I would say the Food & Wine Festival could be a pro...

    Is Disney Springs worth it?

    If you don't really have the extra time, I would skip it. It is mostly shops and restaurants, although they have a few other touristy-type things to do. We always go there on the day we arrive (Sat) because we don't want to waste a park ticket by just going to the park for a few hours on...

    Disney requires too much planning? Are they shooting themselves?

    It's definitely gotten more complicated to plan a Disney trip, however, where else is there to go in the world that is like Disney World? That is the question my husband and I always come back to when we're planning a vacation. We could go here, we could do that, but nowhere else has as much...

    Touringplans.com work???

    However the room request did not work for us last time. We were given a handicap accessible room on the first floor, which was definitely not what we requested. We asked to change and the CM said they were sold out, but did end up moving us because we had checked in before someone else. It...

    Touringplans.com work???

    LOVE touring plans. The first thing I did when planning our trip this year was renew my subscription!

    Nervous my trip will suck...

    I would suggest using Touring Plans to make a plan for each day at the park. Since we've used plans the last two times we went, our trips have been much more enjoyable. At first I thought having a plan would make it more stressful, but it actually allowed us to relax and follow the plan...

    BLT 2-bedroom 10 months out

    We ended up getting a studio villa at BLT, I'm happy with it. We've never stayed there so I think it will be a great experience. We always bring an air mattress when we travel and one of my kids ends up sleeping on that, since apparently sharing a pull-out couch is torturous for 2 boys.

    Dinner choice for Disney Springs

    We liked Raglan Road when we ate there a few years ago.

    BLT 2-bedroom 10 months out

    We already have a reservation at POFQ for the week, but were trying to get a villa for half of the week and do a split stay. Polynesian did just sell out, so now David's is checking on BLT. I'm bummed about no pull down twin bed, but I think it will still be worth it.

    Discount Question

    Thanks all! We have a reservation for the entire week currently, so I'll see what we can do if/when discounts come out!

    Discount Question

    From mouse savers info on last year's discounts: 10/8/17-12/24/17 10%-20% off room-only rates for general public (blacked out weekends from 10/8-11/11, also 11/22-11/24). If weekends are blacked out, does that mean that I can't check in on a weekend day, or that the discount just wouldn't apply...

    BLT 2-bedroom 10 months out

    Thank you, that's kind of what I was thinking. This will be our 3rd visit in mid-October and it has gotten busier each time!

    Disney's PORT ORLEANS FRENCH QUARTER RESORT Information & Questions

    I read a review somewhere about Coronado's new rooms with laminate flooring and how much louder they were than previous - you can hear every sound from above...this worries me a little. I always request top floor rooms in general, but of course there's never a guarantee.
