    Hogwarts Express Question

    It hasn't been raining here and closed all day. TM was not inclined to share why.

    Help me choose

    They have a generous cancellation policy, so I'd book both you are considering (if your pocketbook can take the one night deposit at each place). That will buy you time to do more reasearch and not miss out on a nightly rate you can stomach. I usually have 3 reservations going at once until I...

    AP Rate available!!!

    I'm not following the comment that the AP rates are the same as regular price last year so they are no longer really AP. Yes, everything has shot up in cost (so glad I got that generous 2% raise), but the AP rate is still less than the current seasonal rate. So still a deal, but a stinging one...

    Closure of the Mummy ride?

    I am so glad-My daughter adores the Mummy and I keep trying to ride it with her but I can't take the queue (claustrophobia) . I'm happy to have an excuse now. And maybe, if I'm lucky, they will make it a little less scary (though makes 100% sense to have a tomb be claustrophobia panic inducing).

    should I be worried about sold out hotels?

    I am booked, but nervous about crowds now. Jan 15-18 there are no premiere hotels available. It is the week prior Rock the Universe. Any ideas? It is Martin Luther King, Jr. weekend, but we often go this time of year without big crowds.

    Popeye & Blutos bilge rat barges, do not skip.

    I do really enjoy this ride right before a return to the room. I'd easily ride it over & over, but sometimes there are party poopers in my party.

    Portofino Club Renovation - still worth it or more space and grocery/drizly delivery?

    We recently returned from PBH club level. It was definitely worth it for us (2 adults + 13 y.o.). There was always space to be spread out inside and outside. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. A few notes from Aug 14-18 Breakfast 7-10:30 : The hot breakfast items rotated from eggs/ham...

    PORTOFINO BAY HOTEL INFO...FAQ`s and more.......

    @mousefan73 You can still use the pool at check out, but the shower was in the open so you would wear your swimsuit and there were not products. Next to the outdoor shower, there are men/women locker rooms with toilets (no showers) but you could change there. We were told by PBH staff to use a...

    dining situation August 2021

    We had reservations for lunch at noon for Mythos, Toothsome, NBC. for the week of Aug 15. I cancelled NBC as the QS were not that bad, and it gave us more flexibility--we didn't need to leave a park at a certain time or be at a certain park on a certain day. Mythos, worth it & efficient-ish for...

    Are Quick Service Locations Still Slammed With the Lower Crowds?

    We were there Aug 14-19 and were able to eat at QS with out much of a wait (ie. under 15 min). Granted, we ate at 11:40 or 1:30 so that probably helped (Krusty burger, Breadbox, Leaky Cauldron)

    Current crowd levels?

    We have ridden Velocicoaster within 30 minutes and Hulk in 15 this morning, so pretty manageable... Very hot and steamy though.

    How many days?

    Part of my answer would be nested in, is this a vacation? Like, you really need this vacation? If so, I'm for 4 days or 3 with VIP. This will give time to sit & enjoy eating; people watching; swimming; napping; rides & shows.

    Poseidon’s Fury Gone, what will replace it?

    I'm with @damo, I want to ride something. I did like it as a respite from rain or heat, but really could have used something I'm sitting in while the magic washes over me or thrills the squeals out of me.

    How do your ride Ripe Ride Rocket without the brain scramnblies?

    There have been good threads on here about preference of RRR songs, vs. Hulk, secret lists. (I enjoyed this thread https://www.disboards.com/threads/hollywood-rip-ride-rockit-vs-the-incredible-hulk-coaster.3839496/#post-63047277) I'm looking for advice on how those who love RRR actually...

    Hi all, I need a check my logic help with the announcement of APH appreciation days and early entry. We are going Aug 15-19 and I see that there is no EE for IoA (which from what I read was super helpful for Hagrids & Veloicoaster timing). APH appreciation has this So then looking at the...

    It's Fun to be First!! August 5-10, 2021 Trip Report

    I really enjoyed your report, Deb1993. I'm sorry about the plane situation. I developed a claustrophobia situation after an unfortunate trapped in an elevator event. I have found that having a song that I can hum/sing in my head that is repetitive but needs a little attention can help when I...

    Passholder Appreciation Days

    It looks like there is potential of early entry. I really hope it is IoA as starting Aug 16, only US has early entry: https://www.universalorlando.com/web/en/us/tickets-packages/annual-passes/appreciation-days I'm not sure how one finds out the APH early entry park, though.
