    Disneyland and WDW on same trip?

    Thanks, everyone! I hadn’t actually thought about the Premier Pass, but I will definitely look into that - that could work really well! We currently have the U.K. exclusive tickets, a 21 day and a 14 day (on offer for the same price as 7 days). I will need to price it out, but I think if we add...

    AKL or POFQ

    Definitely AKL. POFQ is nice but the facilities, the restaurants, and the grounds are so much nicer at AKL.

    Do you happen to know if this special menu for those on the Dining Plan is still going to be an issue if we use the dining plan credits as part payment, and top up ourselves? We got the Plus DP free as part of our package and plan to eat at Walt’s, California Grill, and Bistro Chez Remy (and...

    DAS and guest relations kiosks - policy change?

    I agree. Anti-disability sentiments in the Disability forum is a new low.

    DAS and guest relations kiosks - policy change?

    It’s easier for people who don’t have the disabilities that require a DAS, yes. You do realise I don’t make Disney’s policies, right?

    I like the DxDP in WDW but I would never have bought it in DLP. It’s just so confusing, and I hate pretty much everything about it so far! We got it for “free” as part of our package, so we will use it to pay for the meals we want to go to, and are ok if we can’t use it in some places. It does...

    Can anyone who brings their own scooter please talk me through?

    They had my sister place her cases directly into the storage compartment when she used DME. I was surprised, but I watched her do it, so I’m not sure how strict they are. (My sister has no disabilities).

    Can anyone who brings their own scooter please talk me through?

    True, but she can get wheelchair assistance at Gatwick from check in to the aircraft door, so it might be doable.

    @BadPinkTink I’m not the OP but I hadn’t realised that there were restaurants that we couldn’t use our meal vouchers in. Thank you!

    Can anyone who brings their own scooter please talk me through?

    I feel awful saying this, but that sounds absolutely horrendous to me. You said you were open to renting in the US, and that’s what I would suggest you do if you can. Then just get wheelchair transfers at both ends of the flight. I don’t fly from Gatwick but I did find MCO’s wheelchair transfers...

    Disneyland and WDW on same trip?

    Im very happy to adopt you, especially if you will do my planning for me! I promise that my life is not glamorous at all: I work all the time and travel a lot for work, so having the longer breaks every 2 years instead of annual vacations works better for me as a way to unwind. I do know I’m...

    DAS and guest relations kiosks - policy change?

    It’s a new programme that they started in around May or June. It’s not always easy for guests to have to go to the ride for a return time, so I think it’s brilliabt. They have their iPads and do it exactly the same way as they do at the ride entrance. As to how long, presumably they are running...

    Lots of random questions...

    I also go at Christmas, so I think I should leave the answers to someone more qualified. I did want to address question 5 though. Yes, you can pay to top up. However, if you are there on Christmas Eve, then do be aware that that is the “big” celebration day in France and options for sit down...

    Disneyland and WDW on same trip?

    This is all so helpful, thank you! I’m really excited about this idea now, so I really appreciate everyone’s thoughts. I think we can do Grand Californian, which seems like a good option from what has been said here. I would rather stay “too long” than rush and end up over-tired for WDW. I...

    Inviting one of daughter's friends but not the other

    I would say that it goes beyond “all or nothing” - you need to think carefully whether you are prepared to take responsibility for Kid B, given her behaviour. It’s a different situation but I have 5 nieces and a nephew, and only 3 of those kids would I be prepared to take on vacation without...

    Disneyland and WDW on same trip?

    This is all incredibly helpful: thank you very much! I hadn’t realised that I could get in from Harbor Boulevard - I thought I had to go in through Downtown Disney, thus the Grand Californian - but I’m not wedded to that idea. We will definitely spend time at the resort though, as we will need...

    Test Track worth the wait?

    I wouldn’t wait more than about 10 minutes for it - it feels like such a pointless ride to me. I understand that the car design section is fun if you like that kind of thing, but the rest is just being in a car that goes 60 mph. If you’ve driven on a highway with your car windows down then...

    Disneyland and WDW on same trip?

    Thank you! I’m feeling quite positive about this idea.

    Dreams / DIS Exclusive London/Paris/DLP Adventure Oct 4th - 13th 2019

    I apologise, Kevin, I wasn’t clear. I meant that I suspect spaces may open up nearer the time as people cancel, not that people should just show up. Oh dear, my first Dis event is off to an auspicious start! :scared:
