    Unpleasant discovery today re hotel bucket

    I feel strongly that if you are ponying up for onsite hotel prices (even with discounts) you should receive the perks! Just to clarify tho, Magic Keys are not blocked from the hotel bucket (at least that is my experience). It was operator error on my part. I needed to cancel my park...

    Impromptu Solo Trip

    I vote Candy Cane Inn or Westin. Candy Cane is EASY. You get a cute, updated, clean, basic room. You park near your room. No long walks, elevators, etc. Great free breakfast, free parking, easy 10 minute walk or free shuttle. EASY. The Westin is going to be more of a luxury stay...

    Unpleasant discovery today re hotel bucket

    I'm trying to change my Magic Key park reservations using the Hotel Bucket. I have park reservations already, but in order to access Magic Morning I need to switch my park days. My Enchant Key days are no longer available and when I try to access the hotel bucket under my hotel reservations...

    2-Day Park Hoppers vs 3 Day Non-Park Hoppers

    Your dates are the last 2-3 days people can use their SoCal Resident tickets. That will definitely increase the crowds. Because of this. I’d do 3 days with genie plus.

    Space Mountain single rider line?

    I am so confused by this! We were in the LL today, and at the merge, we had a single rider join us. The cast member told us instead of a group of 7, we were now a group of 8. We welcomed the single rider into our group. I tried grilling the new teenager but, I’m not sure he even understood...

    Anyone Going to Toontown Reopening Tomorrow 3/19?

    Same. We got in the line assuming it was for MMRR, until a cast member walked thru saying it was for picnic baskets.

    Anyone Going to Toontown Reopening Tomorrow 3/19?

    We had a fantastic day. Started at Space and Matterhorn before heading to TT. We did the Runaway Railway (our first time), and agree the rest of TT was nuts. Walked through to get a quick look , then high tailed it out of there. We were apparently in WDW NT vlog, as someone from home saw us...

    Not sure if it’s true but I heard Toontown had a soft opening today.

    Help me choose a hotel

    We’ve stayed at Element and really liked it. We’d happily stay there again. The walk did not feel bad, certainly closer than walking all the way to Sheraton Park. We stayed at Sheraton Park many years ago, and I wasn’t impressed with any part of it. Some people like the pool, but we didn’t...

    Moving trip to Summer - How hot is it?

    I love Candy Cane Inn, but the rooms are small. Be aware of that. Personally I think they are comfortable for 3-4 people max.

    SPOILER...Anyone going to the opening of Mickey's Runaway Railway Tomorrow (01/27/23)?

    My friends were there Friday and Saturday. Their theory is that they are not releasing very many virtual queue spots, and that Disney is holding most spots for paid LL+. Kind of makes sense to me! I was helping them, and between the 3 of us, trying 3 times we never got a boarding pass (and we...

    SPOILER...Anyone going to the opening of Mickey's Runaway Railway Tomorrow (01/27/23)?

    I tried helping a friend from home…. and had no luck! They were gone instantly. Going to try again at 1.

    Cancellation policy: is it best to book hotel and park tickets separately?

    I like to buy tickets from a 3rd party. Lately, we’ve been using Undercover Tourist. They will refund your tickets for a small fee (can’t remember, maybe 5%), if you need to cancel. I love that flexibility! Tickets are also a little discounted to start with, so that’s nice too!

    Rope Drop Strategy for Disneyland and Disney California Adventure with Lightning Lanes and Individual Lightning Lanes

    We used to stay on-site a lot, and would be joined by friends that would stay off-site. I’d add 2 of my friends to my room (this was before they charged extra for the 3rd adult). A few different times we’d have 1 or 2 extra people, and we just asked vm very nicely and they let them join us...

    Hotel help (Courtyard vs. JW Marriott)

    Another vote for RI! I think you made the perfect choice!

    Terrible food at Disneyland this week

    January Trip. I must be losing my mind. Help me find it.

    We love the Cappuccino Cart at DCA (at the entrance to the Pacific Wharf area, by the footbridge). I highly recommend placing a mobile order for it while you’re waiting to enter the park. It never used to be busy, but it was slammed every day on our last trip. Mobile order times were pushing...

    January Trip. I must be losing my mind. Help me find it.

    I’m so excited for your family! Surprising them is gonna be a lot of fun, and I’m sure your son is going to feel extra special! We went in late May/early June and really didn’t have the best trip. Genie+ return times were always really far out, ride breakdowns and huge crowds at times. We...
