    Word of advice: Never stay during cheer competition.

    We're staying at Coronado in October with my daughter's dance studio. It's not part of a competition though, just performance (Disney Springs and MK parade). I think there is a big difference with this though- most of the dancers will have their family with them since the company the studio is...

    Disney's CORONADO SPRINGS RESORT Information & Questions

    My family is so excited to be returning to Disney with my daughter's dance studio. We had gone with them in 2018 and she danced at Disney Springs. This time she will be dancing at Disney Springs and doing a parade at MK! We stayed at CBR last dance trip and it was really nice, although the room...

    New SWGE Superthread! Now Open to All! (6/24/2019)

    Thanks Skyegirl1999! This really helps my planning. We are going to DL for one day next week and I had no idea how we were going to tour the parks. I know quite a bit about WDW, but this is our first time to DL and since we only had one day I wanted to make sure we used our time wisely. My...

    Santa Monica Pier to DL

    We will be doing a day trip to DL on our vacation in July. We are staying at the Shore Hotel at the Santa Monica Pier. We thought we'd rent a car since we'll be doing the Warner Brothers studio tour on a different day as well, but the idea of driving in that crazy traffic has me spooked. I've...

    Overview and Thoughts on my Disneyland Day

    Thank you so much for this report! We're going for one day in July. We'll be coming from the Santa Monica Pier area and I know we won't get to the park until around 10:30 or so. I was really not sure how the FP works (I've got the WDW FP+ system down pat!), so I was feeling a little nervous...

    Tastings. What Did You Like/Dislike?

    We're signed up for the rum tasting on the Fantasy in June. Admittedly, we are definitely mixers kind of people (rum and coke being the favorite), so I'm hoping we like the sipping rums that it sounds like most people get in the rum tasting. Couple questions- how do you tip your bartender? Cash...

    Overall Cost

    I agree- we're spending something like $13,000 on our vacation (4 night WDW, 7 night cruise)- I'm not going to go without trip insurance!

    Clarification on ground transfer cost increase for Port Canaveral

    Well there goes that theory Guess it’s one of the inconstancies Disney is famous for! We aren’t PIF yet either, June cruise but booked when they were released. Maybe we got pixie dust pixiedust:

    Clarification on ground transfer cost increase for Port Canaveral

    I just had my TA add Disney transfers yesterday- we got it at the old rate :). I wonder if having a TA makes the difference!

    Disney Transportation to ship or not?

    You know my feelings on it goofy4prez! Maybe we'll see you on the bus :wave2:

    Disney Transportation to ship or not?

    We took Disney transport from POFQ 1 1/2 years ago. It had us pick a PAT as well, but it didn't matter though because the bus scheduling system trumps that PAT. Our PAT was 10:30, but the bus pick up time was 11:30 (found out the night before). They make a route for each of the buses and I know...

    Clarification on ground transfer cost increase for Port Canaveral

    Sounds like we may get lucky and get the old rate? I'm going to look at other transportation options, but honestly, we love the ease of Disney taking care of everything for us. I told my husband about the increase and he asked if I was really concerned about it since we are spending thousands...

    That's what I figured, but was hoping. Oh well, there goes another $32

    Clarification on ground transfer cost increase for Port Canaveral

    I was just wondering about the $4 per person increase for the Disney transfers from the resort (or airport) to port/ and port to airport (or resort). In Jackie Gailey's summery she said reservations before Dec 14 they will stay $35 and on or after Dec 14 they will be $39 per person. Is the...

    2019 Disney Fantasy summer cruises celebrating Mickey's 90th!

    I believe it's because they don't want to take away the pool during a day at sea.

    2019 Disney Fantasy summer cruises celebrating Mickey's 90th!

    I don’t know where to look for the schedule- is it listed on the Disney Cruise official website? I’d be very surprised if they took away pirate night, but I guess it could happen? The Surprise party is supposed to be a daytime deck party I thought. Do you see it as an evening party? Maybe they...

    Our “California Adventure” a Road Trip to the West (Update: Day 17 - There and back again)

    Pick a pearl in Epcot?

    How long is the wait to do this typically? We have the Bon Voyage breakfast at Boardwalk at 8:00 am and then we'll go to EPCOT for half a day. Would love to do this but we don't have a ton of time to wait around.

    TOURS-Keys ttK or Backstage Magic?

    My husband and I did KTTK and loved it. The CM that did our tour was fantastic. It was really neat to go into Haunted Mansion through the VIP entrance :) The utilidors were neat, I really liked the memorabilia on the walls. It was cool seeing the floats in their storage areas too. We haven't...

    Flight time advice

    I wouldn't do the 10:15. You will be so stressed about making the flight and totally not worth the few hours you would save. Go for the 1:00 flight. Get off the ship at 9:00, explore the shops at the airport, have a sit down lunch. Much more relaxing!
