    Everything Virtual Queue - Please Read Posts 1 and 2

    Excited to share that we are back in Disney for the first time in forever. Because of the advice on this thread we were able to get virtual queue for Guardians today! Boarding Group 65. It says ETA of 2pm but that seems a bit late. Do you think it’ll be called earlier? And I know reports...

    New 4-day ticket deal this summer?

    I am so darn happy to hear that you can leave and return same day! This whole time I thought once we are in the park we have to stay and won’t be allowed back if we leave. Our trip is in early august and I appreciate this info so much!!!!

    New 4-day ticket deal this summer?

    Silly question but- are these tickets upgradable? If we want to add another day or a park hopper, can we?

    BCV dedicated or BWV lock off 2 bedroom?

    Headed back to Disney in August. First time in a few years and bringing our two kids- 14 and 17. Currently have boardwalk 2 bedroom lock off booked but tempted to switch to beach club for the dedicated 2 bedroom which is currently available. Would love your thoughts as I’m not up to date on...

    What's it like?

    Just booked a one night trip to Disney to bring my mom to MK to see the castle and lights as a way to celebrate her 100% recovery from Covid and her 70th birthday. We will be there the Sunday after Thanksgiving, which I know means crowds will be high. I want to set my expectations on the lower...

    Will I lose my points if I cancel?

    Exactly what we needed to know. Now to decide if we will cancel. We are trying to hold out and see if Food and Wine festival will be held.

    Will I lose my points if I cancel?

    Can’t get through on the phone to ask so thought I should check with you all, the experts... I borrowed my Dec 2020 points for a trip we were supposed to take this May which we moved to September of this year. Dec use year, so we have to use the points by Nov 2020. With all that’s going on, are...

    DVC Renting - What is happening?

    I’d contact the agency or DVC owner ASAP if you haven’t already. The hard part with DVC points is that they must be used by a certain date or they are gone and unable to be used in the future so the renter would be out of money and the owner would be out of points.

    What would you do?

    Thank you all. You’ve been super helpful. I was most worried about us getting closer to the trip and not being able to go and then having limited options when trying to use our points before December. While it’s not the trip we planned we will make it awesome for the kids as heck- we will still...

    What would you do?

    Thank you all! I ended up moving the reservation to last week of September just now. BUMMED since our 10 day trip turned into a 7 day trip (2 Universal, 5 Disney) instead but, we were able to get a 1 bedroom at Boardwalk instead of a Studio. The kids will have to deal with sharing a bed, or...

    What would you do?

    I know it’s all guessing at this point but- we have a 10 day trip planned starting May 30th with a Dec use year- borrowed points. Would you... 1. Wait and see a bit longer. Risking no availability and losing points if Disney is closed through May/June 2. Rebook for later in the year now to be...

    If you have $1200 to spend would you...

    some back story- We are DVC members and have been to Disney a bunch, but never to Universal. My daughter and I LOVE Harry Potter and would really like to get to universal at some point, as we have never been but I am struggling with the added cost. I have a 11 and 14 year old who aren't huge...

    Universal?

    Do you get the express pass when doing so? I can get one day park to park for all of us for $800 (no express pass) or I could get the tickets plus stay overnight at Hard Rock which includes the express pass for around $1200. Or. Add 4 more days to our Disney trip as we are out of points and...

    Universal?

    🤔 maybe I cancel two of the Disney nights and add in two universal nights. Very helpful tips! Thank you.

    Universal?

    We have been on many Disney trips and now that my 11yo is into Harry Potter we are considering a combo Disney/Universal vacation. We have 10 Disney nights booked in late May into early June and I’m hesitant to spend the $ for another hotel night at Universal. Have you ever woke up in your Disney...
