    Oogie Boogie Bash Halloween 2023 Super Thread

    Today (later in the day and not early morning) I checked at the front desks of DLH and GCH, and was told both times that no tickets were made available this morning, and that this year no tickets at all will be made available for hotel guests. I think this issue has been pretty well settled.

    Oogie Boogie Bash Halloween 2023 Super Thread

    I didn't bother going down to the front desk of the DLH at 4:30am to check, but I went down now (8am) and the employee confirmed that no tickets were made available this morning, and she repeated that there will be absolutely no tickets made available to hotel guests this year. We're here for...

    Oogie Boogie Bash Halloween 2023 Super Thread

    Saturday evening at 8pm (September 9), I asked at the front desk of the Disneyland Hotel if there was a possibility of tickets being available tomorrow morning for Oogie Boogie Bash. I was told that this year's event is so overly sold out that there is no possibility of buying tickets tomorrow...

    Oogie Boogie Bash Halloween 2023 Super Thread

    The cast member who checked us in today recommended we try the ticket booths early Sunday morning. Can't hurt to ask.

    Oogie Boogie Bash Halloween 2023 Super Thread

    We checked into the DLH today (Thursday Sep 7) at 2pm, and was told by a cast member that there were no tickets offered for sale at any of the hotels on either Sep 5 or Sep 7. So, thus far, things don't look very promising. I'll ask again Saturday evening to see if the situation has changed...

    Oogie Boogie Bash Halloween 2023 Super Thread

    In two days time (Thursday Sept 7) we'll be checking into the Disneyland Hotel at 2pm. This will almost certainly be too late in the day to get "day of" tickets for Thursday, but while checking in I'll ask about the procedure for getting tickets and report back to this thread. Sunday Sept 10...

    Oogie Boogie Bash Halloween 2023 Super Thread

    I have a stay coming up at the Disneyland Hotel, so I'll be trying to get "day of" tickets for the bash starting with the morning of Sept 10th. If no one posts a report on trying for tickets on Sept 5 or Sept 7, I'll do a post here the morning of Sept 10th, letting you all know if I was...

    Question regarding Victoria BC for my Canadian friends

    When I lived in Victoria during the 1990s, I made a return trip to Vancouver via ferry three times. The highlight for me was during a Vancouver-to-Victoria crossing when the captain announced we were passing by a pod of killer whales. It is the only time I've seen killer whales in the wild. I...

    What is Paradise Pier like these days?

    Has anybody heard any rumours about when (if?) club level will again be offered at the Paradise Pier?

    Recent experiences connecting through Pearson?

    I just posted about this yesterday in another thread. In our case, we waited approximately 1.5 hours in the customs line before we saw a customs agent. The following link should bring up my post: https://www.disboards.com/threads/toronto-airport-security-line.3893356/page-2#post-64280252

    Toronto airport security line

    I don't know if you've already flown, but in case not, I thought I'd share my experience since our flight itinerary was almost identical to yours. We caught the red eye from Edmonton to Toronto on Sunday August 7th. The flight was scheduled to arrive at 5:45am but actually arrived at 5:30am...

    College Program Parents Thread...

    I've been thinking about this for a couple of days (I have lots of time to think while standing in line for popular rides), and I've decided Disney would definitely NOT pay overtime for shifts they didn't assign. If they did, employees could easily abuse the overtime policy. To make up a...

    College Program Parents Thread...

    You are certainly right about the housing. In 2018, it was eight people per suite, with four people in each bedroom (bunk beds). This year, my daughter has three roommates, with each person having their own bedroom, and sharing a bathroom with one other person. My daughter said that because...

    College Program Parents Thread...

    I'm at Disney World right now, and yesterday I asked my daughter (whose college program ends in a couple of weeks) about overtime. She said: - basic pay is $15/hour - overtime is paid if more than 8 hours are worked in a day - overtime is paid if more than 40 hours are worked in a week -...

    All Star Movies secret menu?

    I arrived at All-Star Sports today, and just made the long trek over to All-Star Movies to check on the status of the secret menu. The young lady behind the counter had no idea what I was talking about, but the older gentleman beside her knew exactly what I was referring to. Alas, he confirmed...

    College Program Parents Thread...

    My daughter is currently in the college program at Disney World, and she is working five days a week (4 eleven hour days and one eight hour day, for a total of 52 hours/week). One of her roommates is working a six day, eight hours per day shift (48 hours/week). So, it appears that Disney is...

    All Star Movies secret menu?

    I wonder about this myself. On our previous stay back in 2018 we tried the cinnamon bun burger, and it was excellent. We have a two week stay coming up at All-Star Sports in August, so while I'm there I'll wander over to the Movie resort and ask about the secret menu. I'll post what I...

    Disney jobs for Canadians (university students and others)

    It appears everything is now back to normal in regards to Canadians working at Disney World. Both the Cultural Representative Program and Cultural Exchange Program are accepting applications, although since the CEP sent out numerous job offers over the past few days to Canadians, for a program...

    Check your Westjet account for $

    Those of you who are thinking of booking a Westjet flight should check your accounts. I received emails an hour ago saying that Westjet is having one of their periodic promotions where they add cash to customer accounts. In my case, $50 was added to each of our accounts, and the money must be...

    Disney Cultural Representative Program is back

    Minutes ago, for the first time in over six months, I thought I'd take a look to see if I could find any news on if/when the Disney International Programs might return. By an amazing coincidence, Disney posted some news 20 minutes ago. We have an exciting announcement to share! The Disney...
