    Anyone else staggered by ticket prices?

    When my kids were younger we would go to Disneyland every year. When they got older, starting college age, our trips to spend family time together meant going up the coast and spending time at beaches, or hiking in the redwoods. Much more economical trips, but still lots of fun and, dare I say...

    6 day ticket and Halloween Decorations

    If you want to stay until Sept 1 you could keep your five day tickets and just take a break day somewhere in the middle. Rest days are nice so you can recharge!

    Grad Nites or Special Event Nites July & August 2024

    I find grad nights much better at DCA than DL. I think its the nature of the rides. A quiet ride with teens acting up is really annoying. There's much less of that on things like incredicoaster. We stayed ithe day n DCA last Wednesday, a grad night, and avoided DL. We were lucky and didn't...

    Private after-hours event at DCA on 8/24. Do I need to adjust our plans?

    The only ride we ended up using ILL's for was Rise of the Resistance. It was pricey, but saved us a boatload of time. Hope you have a great trip!

    Private after-hours event at DCA on 8/24. Do I need to adjust our plans?

    We were at DCA last Wed, a very busy grad night, and the park closed at 9:00. We left after WOC. We got in the single rider line for RSR at late dusk after watching the street light up. The line took between 20 and 25 minutes. we got out and headed over to WOC and made it on time with decent...

    Repent guy yelling outside DLR gates this weekend

    We saw one religious guy last week on Tues or Wed, loud but not saying anything rude or inappropriate. A different religious guy with a bullhorn was out on Friday morning, and he was being very rude, saying things like what you heard. Sounds like the same guy. We were leaving that day, and just...

    I'm lost trying to figure out a strategy

    I will keep your strategy in mind, because the rest of my family will want to experience the ride. I can wander through the area while they are riding, it will be fun to explore all the new!

    I'm lost trying to figure out a strategy

    Thanks for this info. We are only going to be in the DL two days, and DCA one day. I think we will pay for the ILL so we don't have to worry too much about wait times. It seems that this might be the best way to go.

    I'm lost trying to figure out a strategy

    Thanks for the info about your back and ride. When I asked my Dr about which rides to stay off of at Disneyland he just said "most of them". I get the sense that he is not at all familiar with Disneyland, so I just need to make an assessment and choose as wisely as I can. I appreciate hearing...

    I'm lost trying to figure out a strategy

    So we haven't been to Disneyland since 2017. We haven't seen any Star Wars stuff, and the last I remember reading about was the craziness of trying to get on Galaxy's Edge. What is the best plan to get on the ride now? Head straight over when the park opens? We always do rope drop. Also, is this...

    Any close, budget hotels with shuttles to/from park?

    Just keep trying. They have cancellations frequently. I think people often make multiple reservations to keep their options open. When I first started looking for our trip I could only get one room, but a few days later somebody cancelled and I was able to get another room. But definitely book...

    Dining reservations day of?

    Do they keep any dining reservation slots open to make the day of, while you are in the park? Our trip was last minute, and my family really enjoys Carnation Cafe, but there are five of us, and no reservations available for either of our days in DL, either lunch or dinner. Any tips on how I...

    Any close, budget hotels with shuttles to/from park?

    For our last minute June trip we were looking at the close hotels on Harbor. We need two rooms for our family of 5 adults. We saved $1000 for our 4 nights/2 rooms by staying at Desert Inn & Suites over Camelot and Park Vue. That's a lot of Churros! It is definitely a budget hotel, but we've...
