We had an amazing trip!!! Thank you to all of you for the help with our planning! ❤️

Thank you to all of you for the helpful tips. ❤️ I kept checking the app during the past week for wait times, paying particular attention to the days when crowd pattern (per touring plan’s crowd level prediction) matched our day and ignored those on rainy days, since I figure they’re unusually...

I‘m pretty sure the rain will shorten lines. Some of the (outdoor) rides close when it rains. https://mickeyvisit.com/what-to-do-when-it-rains-at-disneyland/#:~:text=Inside%20Disneyland%20Park%2C%20Alice%20in,close%20down%20due%20to%20rain.

We're frequent Dland visitors, but usually go in the middle of summer and stay in one of the resort hotels. We'll be in Disneyland next week (Saturday, December 23) and will be staying on the Harbor Blvd side, so I am trying to, as our family's planner, figure out how to adjust our usual touring...

I’m excited! We just booked tickets for the husband, myself, and our two teenagers for December 23. We’re only going to do Disneyland this time and are mostly wanting to focus on just taking in all the holiday decorations (and of course the seasonal Haunted Mansion). Even though my kids have...

Logging wait times hour by hour the week before our visit (in the weekdays we’ll be visiting) has become one of my favorite Disney-trip prep rituals. 😀

Where would that “dedicated corridor” be located? Towards the left? Towards the right? In the middle? Different locations on different days? We’re trying to be there early but would hate to line up on the wrong side and then have to waste some precious EE minutes crossing a sea of people.

I miss the “before times.” We would usually use our early admission hour to go against the masses who speed walked towards RSR and go straight to (what was then) Paradise Pier. One morning we rode TSMM nine times in a row! Good times… I sound like a crotchety old lady reminiscing about the...

Oh, bummer!

We got a room at the DLH booked for late July but haven’t yet gotten our tickets/reservations. Last time we went, early entry wasn’t back yet. Anything we should know about EE to maximize that time (I did read DLRExpert’s pinned rope thread and saw that we need to be there early to get to the...

I’m currently reading through it, but my problem with it is that (A) most of the experiences people describe seem to not apply to the return times I saw when I used the app and its planning features to log wait times last week and (B) most people’s genie+ strategies are about maximizing...

Any suggestions for the best LL booking order for a busy summer day (next Tuesday), for a group of six, two of whom haven't been to Dland before, so we want to make sure that they experience the whole thing, not just the premium rides? Things like Autopia, Buzz, etc are such a big part of the...

I have tried to find a thread on this topic but didn’t see one. If there is one I missed, I’d love a link. ❤️ Have any of you amazing magic key owning dis-experts played around with Disney’s Genie touring recommendation (not the Genie+/LL system but the free app feature that’s supposed to alert...

Yes, I'm definitely one of those laconic, concise writers, aren't I... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thank you for sharing your experience. This is extremely helpful. I'll make sure to deliver a thorough (and probably NOT tersely written) trip report, once we're back. I love this about these boards, that you get...

From what I heard this is one of the areas where the official fine print (of their being "non-transferable") and what cast members actually do differ a bit. It seems that they don't have the time to check names when you scan into the LL, so as long as the person who uses it has a valid one, they...

OK, so we’re finally ready to head back into the parks, but all my Prep Queen prowess was honed during pre-COVID times and is now mostly useless, it seems. So I’m trying to relearn how to do this from scratch, especially since my sister and niece are visiting from Germany, and I want it to be a...

I’m starting to do my planning/prepping for our end of July trip. I’m the family’s Disney Planner, but all my knowledge and experience are from the “before times,” so it feels as if I’m starting completely from scratch. I started to log wait times (Mondays at Universal, Tuesdays and Thursdays...

Oooh, that sounds great. Do you know if they close access at some point in the evening, or if that spot is open to the public all night (not that we’re planning to stay too late… we’ll be rope dropping DLand the next morning; I just don’t want to accidentally get stuck behind a locked gate…). 🙂

Hi guys; we’re planning a trip for late July with my family from Germany. We’re going to be at Universal Studios Hollywood in a Monday and are thinking about leaving there in the late afternoon/early evening to catch a little bit of LA, mostly to drive around Hollywood, see the famous sign...

We’ll be there end of July. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
