    STAR WARS: GALACTIC STARCRUISER Official Information & Questions Thread

    I never went (too young) but it seems the Adventurer's Club was more "immersive" then this experience. Disney could learn a bit from it's past as well as the current world of luxury (high end night clubs, special events, themed celebrity weddings, certain places in Vegas, etc.) and hobbyist...

    VIP Tour - January 2022

    Is there any level of service at which you get "call to chat" executive-style support that luxury brands would typically provide at this type of price point? Maybe Golden Oaks/Club 33? Four Seasons Concierge?

    California Grill's New Year's Eve Celebration - $700 a person

    Hope those wine pairings are actually premium and there's not an upcharge for "real" wine (oh you didn't just want the Josh Cabernet?)

    How to open a business/restaurant in Disney Springs?

    Not going to share names here but a quick LinkedIn/Google for "Disney Springs Business Development" will likely get you pretty close to the right contact at least

    STAR WARS: GALACTIC STARCRUISER Official Information & Questions Thread

    Exactly. The current Disney VIP tour is $800/hr. If you can find a family to split it with its $400/hr. Even in today's diluted value environment, I'd much rather be whisked through all rides in 1-2 parks than pay similar for this experience (as previewed at least). Edit to add that I think...

    Complete List of Restaurants with Bars/Lounges?

    Update: this list from allears (from 2019 but appears mostly accurate) is kind of what I was looking for. I think combined with the posts above it gives me a pretty comprehensive attempt list! With work/conference and park logistics I might not hit up all of them but I think I have my top...

    Complete List of Restaurants with Bars/Lounges?

    Thanks to both! That link is super helpful. I think the only "gray area" it might be missing is the option to sit at the bar at restaurants like California Grill. I've seen a "California Grill Lounge" listed on some unofficial sites but not that site.

    Complete List of Restaurants with Bars/Lounges?

    I'll be at the Swan next year for a convention and it will be my first real trip back to WDW in over a decade! Might be joined by family/friends/conference attendees for a day or two of the trip but I anticipate a good amount of time exploring the parks (particularly Epcot/DHS) solo. My goal...

    Being booted by the NBA deal , where is Disney moving you too?

    Not sure I'd qualify what the NBA arrangement is as "opening" the resort. They're essentially turning it into a fortress for a sporting competition. It's almost guaranteed it would have been closed for your stay regardless and you would have had a move/cancellation to deal with anyway. Now...

    I've decided to make the leap

    After consulting with people here, taking a look at the positives and negatives, and adding in my personal feelings, I've decided to try seasonal summer employment. In case you're wondering, I'm a soon-to-be high school grad who's going to college in August but wants to work at Disney World...

    Working at WDW the Summer before College?

    Sorry for the double post, but I thought I'd post my current leanings. Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio does have summer employee housing for people in just my position. The pay is comparable to Disney and housing expenses are minimal compared to Orlando (even when sharing rent). While the...

    Working at WDW the Summer before College?

    Well, I could never afford any sort of decent summer housing AND somehow commute to WDW without a car. I've always thought that considering how much summer employment Disney needs every year, if I could just show them that I'm ready and eager to work 7 days a week for them, they could put...

    Working at WDW the Summer before College?

    I'm a HS senior graduating in June of 2007 and am planning on attending Notre Dame this fall. I know the time frame between my graduation and college orientation is short, but I would really like to work at Disney World during the summer of 2007 just to get a small feel of what its like...

    Disneyland Secrets

    Going to DLR pretty soon for President's day. I'm curious - Does anyone know of a checklist or something where all of these secrets are categorized or something? I really want to see these when I'm at the park, but it would be easier to have a list then a seven page thread. Does anyone...

    We have a Pope

    I think "half hearted" Catholics must now realize that they have to choose between following either the Church or their own 'style' of being "sorta maybe Catholic," which will no longer be tolerated in the US parishes. Lutherans and Episcopalians here must also realize that their faiths will...

    The Pope Has Died

    Salve Regina, Mater misericordiae, Vita dulcedo et spes nostra salve. Ad te clamamus exsules filii Hevae. Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes, in hac lacrimarum valle. Eja ergo advocata nostra, illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte. Et Jesum benedictum fructum ventris tui...
