    Honestly don't bother, they won't do anything and the line is usually long.

    Reusing Old Magic Bands

    We just used MBs from 2018 and 2019 last week for room key, LL tapstiles and park admission with no problem whatsoever.

    Best Hotel for a non-Disney fan at Christmas?

    I decided to splurge one trip on Beach Club for my Disney-hating husband and it was so convenient to come and go from the parks and take breaks mid-day and have a nice fairly private balcony for him to relax on that he actively enjoyed our trip and we are complete Epcot-resort converts now, so I...

    They're being filled instantly yes. The "no longer enrolling" is because it's full, not because you're ineligible - that gives a different message like you describe. The 7 AM fills up super fast most days. The 1 PM is pretty easy to get, was even on Pres Day, so unless your app glitches I'd...

    Genie+ during Spring Break Crowds

    GA Spring Breaks are really spread out - a bunch of larger ATL metro countries have Feb break so our spring breaks are in April, but a similar number just have the one spring break and they're pretty evenly split from what I've seen between last week, this week, and the week after. I'd expect...

    If this helps anyone in the future, when my G+ was glitching, I used the chat with cast member feature and was able to have them book the LL for me, I just told them what park and ride I wanted. Once it was booked, I was able to modify it myself in my app even though it thought I didn't have G+...

    I was able to book for my hopping park it just said "check availability." You may just have to keep pressing it, backing out if ineligible, pressing again. It really depends on how fast the return times go.

    Resort to park travel time

    No if you use your own car the transit time is pretty much 15 minutes from any resort to any park + however long it takes you to walk to/from your car. Buses involve waiting for buses, waiting for scooter loading, waiting for stroller loading, waiting for full loads, stopping at however many...

    Disney's Club Level (CL) Information & Questions

    When we were at Regatta two weeks ago, we witnessed several CM meetings between BWI and YC employees and it sounded like they are planning to try to replicate the serving area currently at Regatta over at BWI.

    MagicBands 2.0 being phased out?

    We just returned from a trip where 2 of us used MBs from 2020 and 2 used MBs from 2018 with no trouble at all. Put that money towards G+ or $ILLs and keep using the old ones!

    This used to be fun!

    If you've got a rope-dropping family, I would for sure get up and try to rope drop ROTR for a potential savings of $100, plus once you do that G+ will get you every other ride you want that day no problem. I was there are 10/10 days president's day week and the only ride I had any trouble...

    Hollywood Studios After Hours with RNRC Closed

    I'm not an expert so maybe I am wrong on this, but, I was at HS that evening on a regular park hopper, and I stacked LLs for the evening during the afternoon. The wait times were insane, and in particular, ROTR had a listed 310 minute standby wait at 3:38 PM (I took a screenshot of it because it...

    The Tip Board, where you book the LLs from. I didn't use the "My Day" tab at all except to edit my selections for pinning at the top of Tip Board.

    When I was there, they finished the regular BGs around 8:15 and refused to start calling the evening hours BG until right at 9 PM, so those CM reports were consistent with my experience (and it may entirely rely on the particular CMs there, the ones manning GOTG that night were not particularly...

    Grab the 6 PM drop which is just for extended hours! They don't start calling the 6 PM BG until 9 PM and you don't have to have tapped into Epcot yet for this OR have a park reservation for Epcot, just eligible tickets/resort stay.

    So mine definitely didn't do that this past week, the rides I selected were just right at the top under my park for the day without anything in between. It would have been annoying otherwise - like you said, I pinned them so they'd be on the first screen of my phone with no scrolling! I don't...

    Just pick the rides you want and skip everything else like restaurants/shows/parades/etc. Then all that's at the top is whatever 2-3 rides you selected. I also changed mine mid-day if I had already gotten a few of the top ones and moved on to second tier choices.

    Here Now & Just Back WDW Reopening Experiences Including Park Hopping

    No, you have to have Genie+ to get LL. You can get the paid ILLs in each park without it (currently 7DMT, FOP, Guardians, and ROTR) and for those rides you can't get LLs for them even with Genie +, which I find kind of annoying.

    Here Now & Just Back WDW Reopening Experiences Including Park Hopping

    That's amazing. Husband said as we were leaving Thursday it really looked like we picked the wrong part of Pres Day week to come. Thursday was visibly tamer than Tues/Wed at 10:30 at Epcot (as viewed from the Skyliner), our friends who went Friday said it was normal crowded not wildly...

    Here Now & Just Back WDW Reopening Experiences Including Park Hopping

    There are so few rides available at AK for LL, particularly with KRR down, you really only need Genie+ for Navi and KS and even those have a standby time of less than an hour at many times of day. We are extremely line-averse so we bought it anyway but you could probably have a pretty fulfilling...
