Oh haha, well that makes it an easy decision! Totally thought these went on sale in the summer- thanks for the heads up 😊

Hey all! East coaster heading out for an adults trip in the fall. It’s a first trip for one of us, a second trip for the other 2. Nobody has been to the oogie boogie bash previously as we traveled at a different time of year. We are not character meet and greet people. My question is should we...

Hey all! So very last minute but we are taking our kids to Universal (5 and 7) for the first time. As such, I don’t know what restaurant they might enjoy most experience/theme wise at either City Walk or our hotel (royal pacific). They pretty much eat standard kids fare and have no dietary...

It’s very helpful, thank you. I find it odd that I can’t seem to nail down how much bigger the deluxe and premium rooms are. However, with just two adults the extra space is probably not critical.

Hey all! Looking at the candy cane inn for my second trip to Disneyland and need help/suggestions on the different room types offered. This is much different than my first trip. We had kids in tow that time and stayed at the courtyard theme park entrance. We don’t need all of the bunk...

We are interested in a cruse that goes to both castaway and lighthouse. For the dates we can do, both the fantasy and magic will have that itinerary. I guess I’m trying to decide if I should a different class ship from what we’ve done ( the magic) or the sister ship to the one we’ve tried...

Hello! We have only been on one cruise to date, on the Dream. Now we are looking to plan the next trip. Has anyone sailed the newer class of ships first, and then the older ships afterward? Was there any disappointment with the smaller ships? Or are there benefits I might not be...

Super helpful- thanks! Do you rent a car? Or do they have grocery delivery options similar to WDW?

How many nights are you going in aulani? We too are thinking 3 nights in Disneyland which would give us 6 full days in aulani- hoping that’s enough to see a lot for a first trip! The rest of our extended family is skipping Disneyland and doing 9 days aulani.

Any hotels in particular you recommend? Will have a 10, 7, and 2 year old. I’m not married to on property though they look so nice. We should have the points, I’m just unsure of availability at 7 months since our home resort is Boulder Ridge.

Alright we are going to take the plunge and head out to Aulani from the east coast! I’m trying to manage my points appropriately in advance of this so mu question for those that have been or go more regularly: We are looking at early/mid Feb 2026 with party of 7- 3 adults and 3 kids. We would...

Disney magic!

Hey all- booked a one bedroom at beach club on points, did online check in. Just got the online notification that the room was ready and it is definitely a dedicated 2 bedroom. I never asked for this, and it was never discussed at the desk. Should I bring it up to the desk? I’m concerned about...

Hey all! Does anyone know at what time you can join the walk up list for Ohana? If the dinner servings start at 3:30 pm, is this something I should check then? Thanks in advance! FYI I have an 8:45 reservation the day we want to go, but I’m afraid it’s going to be much too late for my...

Following- planning to go in 2025 (seems so far away) We would likely be looking at April break or summer because the school calendar and I don’t want the trip to be rushed. We hope to do 2 or 3 days in Disneyland and then head the rest of way (we’ll be coming from the east coast) It will be...

I felt the same- it’s a bargain if you’re taking the plunge for genie plus in my opinion. I’ll report back on how it goes, we will be there next week for the spring break crazy! At a minimum it will take that first LL off your plate if you are trying to grab a spot in the virtual queues with...

Have you used standby skipper before? We are trying it this go around for the first time because I hate spending the time on my phone that genie plus requires.

I love Peter Pan. I don’t 60+ wait love Peter Pan. Personally, within reason, I don’t mind longer waits. If it was just me or all adults I’d probably just wait to be honest. Sold out by 10 am at $35 dollars no less. Will we see $40 tomorrow? TBD

You’re absolutely right- the hoops you jump through to get your family set up for a smooth day is very unnecessary. Moms and dads deserve a vacation also!

My outlook on Genie plus has really shifted since it first came out. We go regularly, and when if first launched I was a fan, I thought $15 was reasonable for the value (though I always have and still dislike the individual LL) Fast forward to today. We are bringing a family along with us for...
