We just got notification that our flight changed, so now we have an hour and 13 mins between landing from Vancouver (3:22pm) and departing to MCO (4:35pm). We do have Nexus passes, but it seems really tight.

We are going to be in the parks for the day but likely aren't going to be attending the party. In terms of guests leaving the park, if we got into a ride queue before 6pm would we be allowed to stay in the queue and then leave immediately after, or would they not let us ride?

Refreshed the page and the refurb is there. Too bad, we really like Muppet Vision. Other than that, the refurbs don't look too bad right now.

What days are showing as having the Muppet Vision down? I don't see it on the refurb schedule.

We are arriving in Disneyland in 10 days and have a family member with us who donated a kidney a few weeks ago. She is recovering well and excited about the trip, but we think she may need some additional support/breaks off her feet. If we rent her a wheel chair, can we leave it outside of...

Here is the info from the Citypass Site: Upgrade your 3-Day Park Hopper®: The 3 Day Park Hopper® ticket must be upgraded before the completion of your third visit to the Disneyland® Resort. You must purchase your upgrade at Disneyland® Park. For 2014 Southern California CityPASS cards...

Specifically I ordered my tickets on May 6, and they arrived at our house May 8th.

To upgrade your Citypass, you just take it to the guest relations/ticket booths and ask for an upgrade. You have to do this before the 3rd Disney day is used. According to the Citypass site, you get a $265 credit on an adult ticket and $254 on a child ticket towards the 5 day. When we did...

If anyone is looking to purchase a Citypass from Costco and has an Amex card they currently have a deal where you get $25 off a $250 purchase (one per account holder). The coupon code is AMEX25E. We used it towards a Citypass for a trip later this fall.

Another thing we are looking at to save some money is how we use our credit cards. We are looking at getting a Chase Amazon Visa. It has no foreign exchange fee, so it saves the 2-2.5% most cards charge. We would use our other card for car rentals for the insurance coverage and the chase card...

Not sure if anyone has noticed lately, but we have been looking at the Costco Citypass tickets over the past few days and it appears they only have the kids tickets. Hopefully it just temporary as we will be picking up tickets for a fall trip.

Parking is pretty cheap in Bellingham. We have used it for Hawaii (on Alaska). The flights on Allegiant can be pretty cheap, but they nickel-and-dime you for everything and we found the savings to not be that great.

One more tip that we have used. If you sign up for the Alaska Air MBNA card, they give you a $99 companion fare, and enough miles to fly return from Vancouver/Seattle to California. This would only work if you qualify for the card (and one-time). But in theory for a family of three, you could...

A couple things I would suggest for potential cost savings. For tickets, if you are planning to go to Universal/SeaWorld and Disney, Costco has the Citypass. Its a pretty good deal and you can upgrade the park hoppers to 5 days. We have done this a few times. Its probably an even better deal now...

Thanks for the suggestions! The house is still our preferred option, as its family that does not live close by and we thought it would be nice to visit after coming back from the parks, but we will have a look at some of the hotels suggested as well.

We are planning a family trip next fall (6 adults, 3 kids). We are considering a house rental and are looking to keep a reasonable budget. (Which eliminates on-site). The one concern about a house rental is that we would like to be walking distance so people can easily come and go, which limits...

Our daughter was 5 the first time we went. It is too bad that Big Thunder is down, as its a really good guage of how they like the bigger rides. She loved it. We suggested that she try every ride once and if she didn't like it, she didn't have to do it again. She was reluctant after Splash...

You definitely can upgrade them. The only restriction is that you need to upgrade before you use the 3rd day of the ticket.

We hit it this year where we got to see a bit of both. We were there Nov 2-9. When we were first there they had the Halloween decorations up and the Space Mountain Ghost theme. By the end of the week they had done the switch over and we got to see the Christmas decorations and the holiday...

If you could only do one, I would do WOC. We loved the show. We loved the fireworks too--but one thing to consider is that the fireworks have the potential to be canceled if the winds aren't right (and sometimes at the last minute). I am not sure how frequently this happens, but of 3 possible...
