    Value of partially used tickets

    In MDE, I was able to shift the start date of the longer tickets to another date in the future. For now, I pushed the date out well past the date when we plan on going for the shorter trip. That appears to address my concern that the system would get confused and use the wrong ticket when I...

    Thanks everyone for confirming my suspicions.

    Value of partially used tickets

    That's what I thought also. The original intent of my call was to unlink my existing tickets prior to purchasing a shorter ticket. When I talked with the cast member, she told me that I could instead use part of the existing ticket, let the rest of it expire, and use what was left as a credit...

    Value of partially used tickets

    I recently purchased 8-day park tickets for my family. Something happened, and we are not all able to go, and those who can will only be going for 3 days. I called WDW, and they told me that I could use the first 3 days of the ticket and let the rest of the ticket expire. It would then be...

    Walt Disney World SWAN, DOLPHIN & SWAN RESERVE RESORTS Information & Questions

    I was curious and tried the search. I had success finding both shampoo and soap. However, the only results were your post and the replies to it. :-)

    Amex Points for GC?

    Sorry, but I'm no help. I don't even see the option to redeem AMEX MR points for a Universal GC. In general, when redeeming points for a gift card, you can choose a digital card if that option is available for that vendor.

    Samsung Pay at universal ?

    I should know this for sure, because I was there this past weekend. I think I used my card most of the time, but I'm pretty sure I used Samsung Pay at least once (Leaky Cauldron I believe). Hopefully, someone else can confirm.

    Paying for charges to the resort with gift cards - timing?

    This is exactly what happened to me. I had a room-only reservation, and the full amount was charged at check-in. I noticed that as I was going to the room after checking in. I returned to the front desk and had them refund the credit card and apply the gift cards.

    Thanks for the pictures of the decorations going up. It's neat to see how that happens. I've only been able to see (and smell, but no taste unfortunately) the final product.

    Definitely agree! However, it put my sweet tooth into overdrive.

    Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB RESORTS Information & Questions

    How is the noise from the arrivals? I have heard that there can be noise during much of the night. I am in a standard room in December, and I've been trying to figure out what my room request should be. We had a problem during our last stay at the Yacht Club. We have a lot of Magic Bands, but...

    How full do you like to pack your touring plans?

    I used to plan everything with little free time, and we got a lot done and had a lot of fun. Now that we have been a few times, I don't plan nearly as much, and we still have a lot of fun. I now focus on the few rides/attractions that we definitely want to do, then I will have a very loose plan...

    Is opt out credit available at Beach Club?

    You might be in the minority, but you are certainly not the only one. Discount or no discount, my wife will opt out. She is one of those who will clean the room when we arrive. Using housekeeping would just mean more work/stress for her each day. And, like you, I am one of those would would not...

    Annnual Passholders, what's your strategy?

    Like others have said. You can make FPs AND wing it. Make a plan, but be willing to deviate from it. Having APs allowed me to be much more relaxed in my touring approach. When I knew I'd be back in a few weeks/months, I was fine not going on a ride with a long wait and for which I did not have a...

    Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB RESORTS Information & Questions

    I have not had problems finding parking at the Yacht Club during trips in January and August. For Magic Kingdom, that is the one park for which I always use the bus. I have had better luck with the bus as opposed to the TTC.

    Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB RESORTS Information & Questions

    I agree with the others. Ale & Compass is not bad (but I don't recommend the protein bowl). But it is not in the same class as Boma. Just be prepared for a potential Boma coma (so much food, so little stomach). My family also enjoys spending a little time at the resort, before or after the...

    Disney Resorts to start charging parking fees....

    Nice WarGames reference. Maybe WOPR had it correct. "A strange game. The only winning move is not to play. How about a nice game of chess?"
