    Captain Hooks Pirate Crew

    I’m sure that helped, but most of the other kids in the program were by themselves. My impression from what the kids told me is that the hosts are very outgoing and fun and are very good at what they do. The kids kept talking about the things they said. For example, one of the hosts told my...

    Captain Hooks Pirate Crew

    We did it in January. The kids all loved it. They asked if they could do it every night! Our kids were 4,5,6 and 8.

    Pressed Pennies - Recent Report?

    We are prepping for our January trip and need some intel on the new pressed penny machines. I heard on here a few months ago that Disney is switching out the older machines with new ones that provide pennies (so you can’t use your own) and take credit cards. My mother-in-law has been gathering...

    For those that have done it, does Captain Hook sign autographs for the kids?

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

    I wasn’t there but I read an article that said it was in the voiceover that it would open by the end of 2019. So I wouldn’t consider that a definite!

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

    I am hoping it will be open for my January trip. Someone said that they are saying “winter” but in the D23 panel they said the opening will be in 2019. Fingers crossed. I am so worried that I will miss ADRs opening and be too late!

    7AM EMH AK but 8AM FOP

    If your FP is at 8am, you can use it up till 9:15, so I think you’d actually have enough time to ride NRJ and then go do at least one other thing and get back to use the FP if you wanted to.

    Which ride is tamer?

    I think they are really similar. BTMR is definitely louder and rocks you back and forth which can make it feel more intense, but no big drops. 7DMT is smoother but I feel that the drops might be slightly bigger (but they are not very big. I hate big drops and love this ride). One tip is that...

    *** Official January 2020 Thread ***

    We have a trip booked from Jan 11-19 for 11 people, including 4 kids and 3 grandparents. ADRs are secured and we got what we wanted, but I’m a bit nervous about getting FP+ for such a large group. But I know we have time to worry about that! Where do you all watch for announcements about...

    Which BBB Do You Prefer, MK or DS?

    We loved the DS version and are planning to do it again. (Disclaimer that I have not been to the MK version). We went both before and after it moved to the new location so I can compare those two experiences. The new version has a new little room that you start in with a “magic” mirror that...

    Best Options for 12 of us?

    I am planning a trip in January for a group of 11. I was trying to figure out a villa configuration that would work, but in the end most of the options had too many people sleeping on pullout couches. We didn’t have a need for the kitchen either and probably won’t spend a ton of time in the...

    MDE Family and Friends List - Strange Name?

    MDE is so glitchy. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was just a random glitch, but change your password to be sure.

    My Disney Experience Friends and Family Question

    I also recommend chat. We are going on a trip with 11 people and have been having a heck of a time trying to get us all to see each other. The chat feature turned out to be very helpful.

    Secrets for getting a BBB reservation?

    Maybe look into doing the Disney Springs BBB? We did it there and it's a great experience. It is recently redone and there is a new part of the experience where the kids go into a room with an enchanted mirror that is very cute. And the boutique itself is pretty big and there is plenty of...

    Captain Hooks Pirate Crew

    When you say it’s running for a few weeks, does that mean it’s a temporary thing? I was thinking of doing this for our trip in a January.

    When do EMH Generally Get Announced/Changed?

    We are a group of 11 doing a week at WDW in January 2020. We are planning to stay onsite for the first time in a long time, so we’ll have access to 60-day FPs and EMH for the first time in a long time as well. Since we’re a lot of people, we’re hoping to plan most of our ADRs based on our...
