    Success Cancelling Park Hoppers?

    Our trip isn't until mid-October so I'm waiting a bit to contact Disney to remove our Park Hoppers. We have some time. The phone lines are nuts right now with all of the park reservation system going live and having issues.

    Disney World Reservation System -POST 1 FOR LINKS

    I have to admit I expected this - 90s computer technology and waaayyyy too many of us on multiple devices AND a new reservation system???? So we shall sit and wait.

    Your thoughts/opinions on Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Rail (MMRR)

    I haven't physically had a ride yet - just watched several videos but I'll give my take. I LOVE Mickey Mouse so I'm very happy that Disney finally gave him an attraction. I think that DH and I will both love the ride. I just wish they could've updated GMR and then built this separately but I...

    Apparently a Jungle Cruise Boat sank at MK today!

    This is the most Jungle Cruise thing to happen on a Jungle Cruise. :boat:

    I would guess a private event as well.

    Can't order Magic Bands

    I get an error message when trying to access the page as well so I think it's just a system glitch.

    Saturday Closing Times at MK in October

    We have seen park hours change up to and including the same day. We go every Oct and the hours are usually extended for non-party evenings for MK as the date gets closer.

    Last week of September Magic Kingdom - have hours been updated yet?

    9pm closing has been the standard posted closing hours for Oct for non-party nights until it gets closer to Oct for the past few years. We have seen MK hours change even the same day to a later closing.

    Do you buy length of stay park tickets or only a specific amount of days?

    We get length of stay since we do early flight down and later flight home - this year we are upgrading to AP though as we hope to move to the area in the next year.

    Walking or running shoes? Which is better?

    For DH and I we prefer running shoes and we add orthotic inserts for arch support as we both have higher arches. The gel inserts will disperse the impact of walking to a degree however do not add any additional arch or structural support. Try to break in your new sneakers prior to your trip...

    Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin

    It could use a refurb but in all of the years of visiting, I have never had a gun not work. Think maybe you just hit some bad luck there. Def give it another try - it's one of our faves!

    Midday downtime

    About 3 hrs usually for us unless DH wants to swim and then it's usually about 4. Usually leave the parks around 1pm (right after lunch) and head back just before dinner.

    Haunted Mansion Refurb

    I saw a behind the scenes video on youtube somewhere with an Imagineer who explained that when they previewed the Hatbox ghost prior to opening, the effect didn't work as well as expected due to lighting. As you moved past the ghost you were able to see the workings of the effect so they...

    Quiet places to watch Fireworks?

    I think the previous posters have given great advice for locations and also the use of ear plugs/headphones as extra help. Please thank your husband for his service and hope you have a great trip!
