    Tell me truly about Oga’s Cantina…

    We went twice. The first visit we were at the standing only bar, the second time the standing round tables. Bar was a much better location than the standing table. The drinks were fun and it had good decor but in my opinion, it needed way more animatronic and I was disappointed in that.

    Transportation from Santa Ana Airport?

    We used Karmel Shuttle and were very pleased. Our inbound flight was on Christmas Day and Outbound was New Years Eve. We were concerned about holiday gouging and/or availability of Uber/Lyft. Karmel was easy, kept track of our flights and despite delays on arrival, was quick to pick up when we...

    Hotel Recommendations (Free Breakfast!)

    We stayed at the Holiday Inn Express and Suites on Manchester in December. It had the best free breakfast we have ever experienced at a hotel. I would absolutely stay there again. We booked a package thru Costco which included very nice large rooms with 2 queen beds and a sectional sofa with...

    Airport Transportation Help!

    We were a group of 8 flying in/out of Long Beach and I booked Karmel Shuttle. I was very pleased. We also had a single member of the group flying in/out of Santa Ana and used Karmel as well. Great experience all around, I would recommend without hesitation.

    Mobile is unreliable, have a back up plan

    We all have our own login. We surmised early on that its an issue specific to my phone. I am sure that somewhere there is a setting that was on/off that needed to not be. I was really hoping that guest services would have some suggestions but they didn't. Since the issue came down to the...

    Mobile is unreliable, have a back up plan

    There were 5 phones in our group, DH, DS and I's are identical, mine was the only one that would not work. Ever We had them all except for DH's - no idea where his went and the time my DIL got hung up, my DS had all the paper tickets. IF we were going to have to rely on the paper tickets, that...

    Terrible food at Disneyland this week

    At Galactic Grill the special was a cranberry chicken sandwich. I ordered at the window since my mobile app would never work the entire time we are at DL (another thread) it literally would not work for me but did for everyone else in our party. I specifically asked for that sandwich with no...

    Mobile is unreliable, have a back up plan

    My post did note that we uninstalled and reinstalled the app. We tried everything that anyone, including guest relations could think of and it DID NOT WORK.

    Hotel help please!

    We just returned from 6 nights at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites on Manchester. I would 100% stay here again. Easy walk to the parks, the hotel is new, clean, large rooms, we had 2 queen beds (Howard Johnson is double beds, that is just too small for us) with nice linens, blankets and an...

    Car Service/Shuttle Question

    We used Karmel Shuttle and then Instacart/Shipt for a grocery delivery. Worked out great. I brought snacks with us using a cooler as a piece of luggage and only needed several cases of water which is what we had delivered.

    Terrible food at Disneyland this week

    We just got home following 5 days at DL. 12/26-12/30 We are CS style eaters, I personally don't like the whole dining experience with reservations months in advance for mediocre food. We prefer to eat when we want, with whatever is close by at that time. That is our vacation style. I was very...

    We are going the same days as you - We are scattered all over the country, coming on the 25th from Reno, NV, Austin, TX and Huntsville, AL. I'm jittery over the flights. Saw the rain forecast yesterday - told everyone to pack layers and extra shoes/socks I also noticed it varied a lot...

    Who is going in December 2022??

    We have been isolated from others and germs for 3 years. Our immune systems have taken a huge hit, its not surprising we are seeing the really high numbers of the seasonal crud, ie. Flu, RSV and yes, even Covid. Hope you all are feeling better soon. This month I've finally had Covid and now I...

    Are you loyal to one grocery store?

    I live in HEB Country with occasional jaunts to Randalls (Safeway) and Trader Joes. There are not a lot of options here in central Texas but we do also visit Costco frequently however, I don't consider Costco a "grocery store".

Ohhhh turkey legs, yummmmm and thanks for the tips on the BBQ Skewers. I...

    Keto Eating

    I eat carnivore but for our upcoming DL trip, I am thinking that Keto - Low carb will be my best options. We are not planning any dining reservations and will be doing all casual dining throughout our weeklong stay. Would love to hear about others who have managed low carb while at DL/DCA...

    What ADRs are worth getting?

    We have not been to DL In 20 years, we have been to WDW twice in the past 20 years. Just my opinion but Table Service has never really impressed me, I find it mediocre and expensive. I'd much rather grab a decent burger, turkey leg and ice cream bar! For our upcoming Dec DL trip we are a...
