    Updated Disney Gift Card Deals and More

    I’m trying to understand the basics of using Disney e-gift cards. Here’s what I’ve done: Bought a Disney egift card from Target online. Received the egift card email from Target, which had a link to the web page with the card info. Entered the numbers from the webpage into disneygiftcard.com...

    Universal Studios Hollywood VIP Experience Review - May 2023

    Thanks for the great review and discussion. We’re considering booking this for early December. Google maps is currently showing drive time from the Disneyland Hotel between 1 hour 10 minutes and 2 hours 10 minutes for a 9am arrival time (picking Nov 2 arbitrarily, since I don’t think they’ll be...

    Fantasmic Dining Reservation weirdness

    I assume you mean the Tomorrowland Terrace package. But even if you didn’t, I’m so glad you posted this. I’d totally forgotten that it might show up soon, and had already booked an ordinary River Belle Terrace dinner. I’ve now replaced it with the Tomorrowland Terrace package instead for...

    Fantasmic Dining Reservation weirdness

    Thanks, everyone, and now I feel silly (and we’re not missing out on Fantasmic due to the dates being screwy. But that still leaves the question as to why the various dining packages appear to be bootable a day earlier. As I said, the World of Color packagea are like that, as is the...

    Fantasmic Dining Reservation weirdness

    As of this posting, if I go to look for an ordinary reservation, the latest day it shows is Thursday, December 7. I figure we want to book a Fantasmic dining package for the 8th, so my timing is fine and just need to get up early tomorrow. But just to be sure I know what I’m doing, I tried the...

    Disneyland Hotel EV Charging - valet?

    Any updates on this issue? We’ll be staying at the DLH, coming from Joshua Tree, taking one day of our DLH stay to visit Universal, and then heading to San Diego. All the hotels we’ll be staying at purport to have EV charging, but DLH’s feels like we won’t be able to depend on it. We’re trying...

    What’s with Fridays in early December?

    The TP crowd calendar is rating the second and third Fridays in Dec. as a 5, with Saturdays an 8 at DLP, 6 at DCA. I’m not that familiar with DisneyLand weekend crowd patterns, having scheduled our recent previous trips for mid-week. I’m used to WDW, where a low crowd prediction is often...

    Booking DLH rooms through Undercover Tourist

    Well, for what it worth, the rooms I wanted sold out on UT, so the point is moot for me.

    Booking DLH rooms through Undercover Tourist

    I see a lot of posts about buying tickets through Undercover Tourist, and I’m sure that’s what we’ll do. But I don’t see anything about booking rooms. It looks like we could save $100 on our DLH rooms by booking through them (and canceling our rooms booked through Disney). Are there any issues...

    What’s going on the first week of December?

    Go through the standard purchase path at https://disneyland.disney.go.com/admission/tickets/, select Standard tickets, One Day, 2 Adults, One Park per Day, then hit continue, then go to December. And I just did it again, and now they’re all showing up. Sigh. Their AI that controls how many they...

    Quick trip report, November 8, 2022

    Since I’ve started asking questions, I figured I owe a quick trip report from our last visit. Our vacation last fall was really to Hawaii, but we didn’t want to deal with the huge time change, coming from Boston. So we stopped at San Diego for a couple of zoo days on the way there, and at...

    Are hotel discounts typical?

    I just saw that Mousesavers is significantly cheaper than the rooms we booked directly at DLH. It’s just $10 cheaper the first two nights (Wednesday and Thursday) but they’re giving me the same price for Friday night, while Disney is showing Friday night as $106 more. Is it tacky to book with...

    What’s going on the first week of December?

    American Society of Health-system Pharmacists. I'm surprised their conference is so big.

    What’s going on the first week of December?

    I misremembered the date. Currently it's showing no availability for the 8th, 10th, and 11th.

    What’s going on the first week of December?

    We were looking to book three nights that week at one of the DLR hotels for the first week of Dec. They were pretty much all booked up until mid-week, but we did get rooms that we wanted at that point. I’m surprised at that, and assume there‘s something going on. But my real question is which...

    Trip insurance when putting deposit far in advance?

    We’re considering the major 2 week cruise from Sydney to Honolulu in 2025 (only a year and a half away). We’ve never done a cruise before, but some friends (who love Disney cruises but have never been to the parks) have invited us to join them. We want to put a deposit down on a verandah...

    Which Disney resort this December?

    We’ve decided to splurge and stay at one of the Disney hotels at Disneyland this December, probably the second weekend. It’s sort of a bucket list item, as it’s just the two of us, seniors who can no longer ride most thrill rides, and we’ve been there before. So atmosphere and convenience are...

    Disneyland Pride After Hours Event

    I kind of regret having been there in November, because we really can’t justify another trip to the west coast so soon. But if we hadn’t, I’d be giving a long hard look at going out there just for this (and the San Diego Zoos).

    Legoland NY advice?

    Any advice on which hotel to stay at for Legoland in Goshen, NY? My nephew and his family (wife, D3, D6, S16) will be staying one night while my husband and I will be staying two nights. For comparison, we usually stay onsite at DisneyWorld but offsite at Disneyland.
