    Covid travel UK-US ... or not

    My balance payment is due on the 20th of August. I called Disney yesterday to check what should I do. They advised to call back before paying on the 20th - it is possible that they will provide an extension. And if not I was assured that if we can not travel we will be able to get the money back...

    DS on travel day too much?

    In my experience dinner in a nice restaurant on arrival day is not a good idea. Falling asleep over your plate is not exactly pleasant. We always go to a park. Epcot is our park of choice for the arrival day. Get some fast passes and enjoy rides (and you do not fall asleep on Soarin’).

    The best Disney World restaurants to visit on a child's birthday?

    Hoop Dee Doo is perfect for a birthday. Irrespective of age actually. There is a special "Happy Birthday" part of the show and the cast are very good with getting people involved.

    SPACE RESTAURANT WATCH THREAD—Entrance photos post #1609!!

    Called Disney on some other topic and asked the CM if there are any news re Space 220. She said that they now expect this restaurant to open in "late winter or early spring" but have no official date. Nothing new really, but it looks like CMs have been told that "this Winter" might not be happening.

    MK/Fantasyland “Early Morning Magic” (EMM) FAQ & Discussion

    They do not force you to eat breakfast! :) And we did not think EMM breakfast was particularly good (we liked the one they provided for HS EMM but this is irrelevant now). Last couple of times we picked up some coffee and pastries but did not have a "proper" breakfast. Still booked 3 EMMs for...

    Park on departure day?

    We really enjoy going to the MK on our departure date. Leisurely pace, three good fast passes and a nice lunch around half past noon. Works really well. And logistically it is not difficult, you can check out first thing in the morning and leave your bags at the hotel. The only substantial...

    Garden Grill - Can you get a reservation for a party of 7?

    Had the same issue last year but for a party of 6. Made two bookings for three people each (one for 8:10 and one for 8:15 if I remember correctly) - they sat us together.

    MK/Fantasyland “Early Morning Magic” (EMM) FAQ & Discussion

    Mentioned this in another topic but probably this is worth repeating. 23rd and 28th of June now seem bookable. But the earlier June dates are still not available. No idea how to interpret this

    Early Morning Magic in June 2020 - Gone already?

    23rd and 28th of June seem bookable now. But not the earlier June dates.

    Should I keep these PPO ADRs?

    Garden Grill PPO is something we do every time during our annual trip. Sometimes twice. And we do BOG PPO on our MK days unless there is EMM, in which case we do EMM. I think food is good in both (Garden Grill in particular) and BOG is a really nice place to visit. And you get an advantage to...

    **Disney After Hours - Magic Kingdom** FAQ & Discussion Thread

    Yep. Works perfectly on the app. It’s a mystery! Probably somebody in the Disney IT department does not want Brits to attend DAH! Can not think about any other logical explanation!

    **Disney After Hours - Magic Kingdom** FAQ & Discussion Thread

    Thanks. Strange. May be because I am in the UK and the site works differently. It tells me that I should call to book. I booked online long time ago so just was curious what is going on.

    **Disney After Hours - Magic Kingdom** FAQ & Discussion Thread

    Does anybody have any idea why DAH is not bookable online anymore? Even dates are not listed... It is probably me being paranoid but I remember very well how EMM for some dates first became impossible to book and later cancelled... Thanks!

    Space Mountain for the World’s Biggest Ride Chicken.

    Personally, I think Space Mountain is very unpleasant and uncomfortable. Moves (including drops) are pretty sudden and this is the only ride in the DW I find painful (literally - I felt like I should check for bruises). Have not ridden it for some time. And strongly advised my wife (who is...

    HOLLYWOOD & VINE

    By far the worst dining experience we have ever had in WDW. Food was bad, service was bad, atmosphere was bad and we had to wait for quite some time to be seated. And the place looked messy and dirty. Were really shocked. But it was three or four years ago. Needless to say we have not visited...

    PPO advantage in MK

    You can get to SDMT before rope drop crowd if you eat really quickly at Cinderella's Royal Table. We have done it. Not a very good idea in my opinion as you can not enjoy your breakfast properly but doable.

    Dining Plan 2020 question

    I have a quick question - could not find an answer anywhere. We have Deluxe Dining Plan for our trip in March 2020. And after booking all the restaurants I realised that two of them (STK and Monsieur Paul) only show that 2019 plan is accepted but not 2020. Is it safe to assume that these...

    Hoop Dee Doo category 2

    Category 2 tables on the lower floor are fine. Especially the ones on the sides (and if you book early you get one of these - at least we did both times we had Category 2 booked in advance). You can also move your chairs a bit to ensure everybody can see the stage. This is a great show for all...

    Garden Grill PPO

    Sorry, I just noticed, you want to go to Test Track, not Soarin'. I still think 8:45 would be fine but we have not done this - we always go to Soarin'
