    Check my plan for a one-day whirlwind visit?

    Thanks! Yes, immediately after I felt like my plan was all set, Disney decided to open MK an hour earlier (leading to some real soul-searching about how early I'll be able to wake up that day). Sigh. Appreciate the advice! I'm both cautiously optimistic and quite curious about how this will all...

    Check my plan for a one-day whirlwind visit?

    I've made some revisions thanks to your feedback and corrections. If anyone sees anything amiss, please let me know! (Aside from the fact that my MK plans are so completely dorky, because I'm definitely aware of that.) :) Wednesday, 11/15: 7 AM: -Buy ILL for 7DMT and FOP. -Get LL for BTMRR...

    Check my plan for a one-day whirlwind visit?

    Thanks so much to all! Not being able to get my second LL at 9 AM is definitely the kind of mistake I was hoping the Disboards would point out to me. :)

    Check my plan for a one-day whirlwind visit?

    Hi all. I'm going to be in Orlando for an event on 11/14, and decided to stay the night to wring all I could out of WDW in a one-day visit. I've been to WDW several times, but not since 2018, so a lot has changed, particularly with Genie and LL. I actually have been to Disneyland twice in the...

    WOC dessert party tonight -- help!!

    We have dessert party reservations tonight and I'm really confused. WOC has showtimes at 9 and 10:15. Our reservation time shows 9:15. But I'm really confused with all that I've read about lining up much earlier than that and "checking in" to claim a table. How early will they be giving out...

    Best hotel near universal

    We stayed at the Drury Inn last night and thought it was quite nice, I can recommend it. I'd just caution that the Lyft we took to CityWalk for dinner took way longer than expected simply because the drop-off point was so choked with other Lyfts and Ubers. Something to consider if that's your...

    ROYAL PACIFIC RESORT INFO...FAQ and more......

    We checked in today - like BlueFairy, I can report no signs seen of construction. My family hadn't been to RPR before and were very impressed. We spent the day Harry Pottering and thoroughly exhausted ourselves. I'm enjoying a wonderful Maui Sunset Colada by the pool. Tonight we decided to get...

    Where to watch Mardi Gras parade?

    Dumb question - I found a map of the parade route but I'm not positive which direction it goes for the Mardi Gras parade. It starts by the Horror Make-Up Show, and then does it go toward Transformers and New York, or toward the T2 theater and the park entrance?

    Help me convince myself to try Rip Ride Rockit? How do Universal rides compare to WDW?

    I just skip the really intense rides and I still love Universal. I don't like Rock and Roller Coaster (except for seeing Ken Marino in the pre-show) or Everest, so you sound braver than I am. But in my experience you can have a great time at Uni without riding Hulk, RRR, or anything with really...

    Help me prepare DD11 - Gringotts and FJ, please

    I'm a ride wimp myself, so I can definitely relate! On my first ride on FJ, I honestly got a bit overwhelmed at times, with the movement of the ride plus the things flying around you. On my second ride, I discovered a trick: if I started to feel panicked, I looked down at my knees, and I could...

    Lanyard?

    You'll need a pouch.

    Disney + Fox = Bye, bye Springfield?

    I can't imagine Disney using the Simpsons at any of their parks, that just seems really out of place. I could imagine a scenario where the contract comes up for renewal and Disney would rather license it to Universal than cancel it just to spite them. I think the Simpsons area is great but I...

    Spring Break 2017 with Coaster-Loving Teens, Hard Rock Hotel 4/16 - 4/20

    Thanks for your report, it's just what I needed to tide me over until our trip next week!

    *Quiet* off-site restaurant, Sand Lake area?

    Thanks for the thoughts and suggestions!

    Wizarding World Touring Plans and Details

    You see almost everything in the FJ queue when you use the Express Pass. (And you skip the greenhouse, which isn't very fun at all.) I wouldn't bother waiting in a long line to do the regular queue.

    *Quiet* off-site restaurant, Sand Lake area?

    (I saw there was another thread about off-site restaurants, but I'm looking for something a bit different than that poster was and didn't want to try to hijack it.) My family (four adults, no kids) is arriving on a Thursday night (in two weeks, yay!) and staying at the Drury Inn before moving...

    Is there anyone who can ride The Simpsons Ride without feeling sick at ALL?

    Just wondering :) It seems like whenever I see it mentioned, it's with the disclaimer that it's likely to make you feel at least a bit sick. Personally, I'm in the camp where I'll ride it, because it's a great ride, but afterward I'll need some fresh air and a few minutes' break for my stomach...

    Any recent intel about whether two APs will be needed to check in for a reservation for two separate rooms booked at the APH rate? We just have the one AP right now. I'm debating whether there's any sense in ordering an AP for my sister to be safe, vs. just getting her a regular ticket and...

    Just saved $1000 total on our two rooms at RPR (the same type we had before) for 3/29-4/1. (Our original rates were way high.) Thanks Dis!
