    Busses to and from Toy Story Parking Lot

    We've also stayed at the Holiday Inn Express that's right next to the HGI/H2S and liked it as well. I think the breakfast was better at the Home2 but Holiday Inn Express was decent. I don't remember the beds being especially firm at the HIE but we have a pretty firm mattress at home so might...

    Busses to and from Toy Story Parking Lot

    I agree with the others to look for something closer if you can. If you're a Hilton "person" looking to say within their brands, consider the Home2Suites/Hilton Garden Inn pair on Manchester. They are in the same building and are basically new. I prefer the Home2 as it's on the side of the...

    Walking from Pixar Place hotel to downtown Disney as a non hotel guest

    Technically you need a room key card to open the gate on the sidewalk to get back into GCH property. In practice though, you will likely not have a problem going in behind someone else or through after someone else comes out and people go in and out of the gate constantly. If you end your day...

    2 day park hopper or 3 days one park?

    The other consideration I would put out there is evening entertainment. I don't know when you're going or what your priorities are but depending on your dates there may only be fireworks on Fri-Sat-Sun. So if fireworks are important then you may want to either consider park hoppers or moving...

    Disneyland Halloween Half Marathon Weekend 2024

    I don't think simply closing a queue window removes that QueueIt ID from the system though (otherwise how would it work to be able to copy/share the queue ID). So it doesn't really matter if people with multiple queues open close their extra windows or not-that queue ID still goes through the...

    Disneyland Halloween Half Marathon Weekend 2024

    All of mine still say more than an hour. Appreciate those sharing queue links and was able to get in and register myself, DD19 and DD13 for the 10K!

    Rise of the Resistance.....did I notice a change?

    Typo for likely? I agree that it depends a lot on the CM as far as the interrogation. I've also found that you can still 'linger' a bit in the stormtrooper room and even if they are pushing you along they won't push too hard. You can also "game this" by being one of the last ones off the...

    Indiana Jones Queue Question

    The pole was definitely not there during my December trip, but the rope you can yank that goes down the shaft was there and operational. That said, I did think the ride itself and most of the effects were looking GREAT on that visit. I was a teenage Disney rat the summer Indy opened. My...

    DLH Online Check-in for Early Entry

    You'll be totally fine-even if you don't to the online check-in-as far as bell services goes. They can look up and see that you have a reservation starting that day. However, the online check in will still be useful so you get room notifications etc. and make sure you have your hotel...

    Disneyland Halloween Half Marathon Weekend 2024

    Awesome- thanks again. Did not realize I wouldn’t need another queue so very good to know. I was originally thinking I was going solo anyway and, as mentioned, she is not 100% sure she’ll even be able to go so I may just focus on mine first. Thanks so much for the quick and super helpful...

    Disneyland Halloween Half Marathon Weekend 2024

    Thank you! Good to hear there is hope for non-club members. Follow up question- there is a chance she won't be able to go anyway so I may prioritize my own registration. So should I just get in queue with multiple devices, then if I get in complete my own registration, then hope one of the...

    Disneyland Halloween Half Marathon Weekend 2024

    Some (sort of) newbie questions here... I did several of the "original" DLR races but it's been a looonnggg time since I've done a runDisney race. DD19 and I are interested in trying for the 10K. Is there any hope at all if we are not club members? I am generally familiar with the intense...

    Walt’s Main Street Story Tour

    The post you quoted was listing the Disney Visa discounted price (which the poster noted). The Disney Visa discount is 15% which would still be $136 if the regular rate is $160.

    WOC Help

    The VQ for WOC is not like ride VQs- it isn't gone in seconds. It's still available right now for tonight's single showing 2hrs after the VQ opened and is for blue or yellow section (they aren't separated- I'm not sure if they still separate them when it's busier but I've seen it like this...

    Disneyland Discount Park Tickets?

    I find aRes is typically the cheapest and have used them many times. I’m not sure why they don’t get shared on here more frequently. I usually also check UT and GAT as previously mentioned.

    Early April Disneyland Discounts

    Many of the public districts in my area (NorCal) no longer tie spring break particularly closely to Easter- our spring break is almost always the first or second week of April. This year it's the first week of April, right after Easter. That said, from the MK blockout calendar you can tell...

    Musical chairs

    I saw Alice and the Mad Hatter doing musical chairs at Refreshment Corner during visits in October and December 2023 so I'd say yes, its still happening at least some of the time.

    Help! First Visit to Disneyland

    I would also recommend follwing SoCalDailyCasey on Instagram or other social (she used be DisneylandDaily but she recently changed her name and has been expanding her non-Disney content). She has lots of different park strategies for all different types of visitors but also lives in Oceanside...

    New Back Entrance to DCA?

    If you exit the Villa wing on the DCA side near the BBQ area you're already inside the keycard gate anyway (though, as others have mentioned, keys from all three hotels will work for the gate). EDIT: Sorry, I realized this post says VDH, not VGC. My bad. Obviously VDH villas are not inside...

    Anyone at DCA today that could check something for me?

    The Baymax bread does have two "eyes" that seemed to be chocolate chips on ours but whatever they are they're definitely not reflected in the ingredient list above. Still probably egg free but worth double checking for sure. Hopefully they have updated the label to include them, though I don't...
