    Pixar Place Superthread

    I have Club Level booked at PP in early August, I am excited to see it after these renovations. I don't think the Club re-opened yet.

    D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event Announced for 8/9/24-8/11/24 **Tickets on sale 3/26**

    I have been to every Expo (except first one) and always saw the all the big panels, did the overnight lines, and got them all last year in the lottery. But I am skipping them this time. And I won't be alone in this, so it will be interesting to see what happens.

    New buses coming in early 2024 - ECV restrictions

    We had people try to attach on to us and also another family at a handicapped/wheelchair parade section. We had to get a CM to remove them. My son uses a manual chair (Convaid) and I prefer to let him walk up the ramp and I push the empty chair up after him. I can collapse it, but they often...

    Disneyland DAS? How does it differ?

    We just get the DAS in the park, and skip preselects. It is pretty much same as WDW, but more rides have lines not WC accessible, mostly the older rides in Fantasyland. So they give a WC return time.

    Universal now requiring documentation be sent to a third party for accessibility

    I submitted a one page letter from my son's doctor (he is an adult), I had other documentation but wasn't sure how to submit it. I got the temporary approval from IBCCES, and an email from Universal promising to contact me closer to our trip dates. I expected a phone call, but it was another...

    Cancelling Night Booked on OTUY Pts

    Keep good records. I had some OTUPs on a reservation that was sucked into the Covid cancellation/parks closed vortex. Then they lost track of them, DVC could not figure it out, I called so many times about it, it was difficult as the DVC office was on a shoestring, people working from home...

    online DAS registration rant

    I honestly won't do the online process again. I will just go to Guest relations on Day 1. The one time we did it (for my son), it was fine but few advance selections were left (I had to wait until a couple weeks in advance for a day my (non verbal) son would be home. So we booked some advance...

    Universal now requiring documentation be sent to a third party for accessibility

    Just a quick followup, I submitted my doctors letter last month, I got an email a few weeks later saying they would call me closer to our trip (we arrive Feb 6th). So I will just wait to hear from them. Thanks everyone for the information on this thread.

    VWL Groupies & Lovers Thread (Special Collectors Edition 2.0) updated 21 June 2023

    When heading to MK via the boat launch, we exit the back door of the BR lobby and walk around the back of the pool, the path right next to the geyser. It is far easier than going into the main WL building, and back out again. (Especially because I avoid some hills this way, as I am pushing an...

    Universal now requiring documentation be sent to a third party for accessibility

    Hi Just a quick question, I applied for the IBCCES thing a few weeks ago. I included a letter from his doctor, I had other documentation but only seemed able to send in the one page document. We received the temporary card on the app. What do I do next? Our trip is in February.

    Disney's Cuppy The Bunny plush from The Parent Trap

    The Disney store sold 2 sizes of Cuppy. One was a beanie, the other was regular sized. My daughter had one (I worked at a Disneystore at this time). They sold quickly, we did not get many in.

    Annual Dues Statement and Privacy Notice Now Available Online

    My 200 point Boulder Ridge does not have a box to click to pay my dues. It also says I owe 12 cents, not sure of that is relevant. My 25 point BR contract allowed me to pay. I dread having to call. I have gift cards ready to pay it off!

    Costco Disney Gift Cards

    Last night got 2 orders of 2, both went thru, today I got the emails and combined them onto an old empty GC on the website, to be one card of $1000. Ordered 2 more today, but it got cancelled. I will get my husband (different membership #) and daughter (separate membership completely) to get...

    Main Gate Pass, Guest Passes, Genie+ & LL

    I am also a Disney Retiree. The problem is buying ILL. The system does not recognize guest pass users as resort guests. So the retiree and spouse CAN get them, if they are registered to an onsite resort, because they use a MEP, which is in the MDE system. But the system doesn't allow you to...

    Universal now requiring documentation be sent to a third party for accessibility

    I am mortified to admit my (special needs- non-verbal) son was on a queue at WDW and pooped on the line exiting. She came out with him and told me and I literally RAN thru the queue from the exit like a maniac and it was already picked up. I would have used my bare hands. This was many years...

    Looking for Jersey Shore DISers in NJ

    Adult trips from NJ too, both to WDW and DL. I do ladies trips, and trips with my 33 year old special needs son, and occasionally my husband will come along with DS.( Monmouth County.)

    Universal now requiring documentation be sent to a third party for accessibility

    Off topic slightly but I am a retired CM using guest passes at WDW for my special needs son, and bring him in at DL using their different procedure (just my ID and guests enter with me). There is no getting around needing to get a new DAS every day. For one thing, the guest passes are not...

    We went to a lightly attended event at DL Hotel, it was nice to meet Vampire Mickey with a pretty short line.

    Universal now requiring documentation be sent to a third party for accessibility

    I am going with my 33 year old special needs adult son in February 2024. I tried to get a note from his DR, for this new type pass, but they looked at my long request note and said bring it to discuss at his physical (December). Now I have read sometimes at the park it is challenged again? It...

    Cast member Complimentary Ticket distribution dates

    She may or may not get the first comp ticket distribution, as the winter ones I believe represent a reward for July-December. They usually pop up the 3rd week of January. Maybe. Summer used to be July but lately have been August.
