    HS EMH schedule change during Jersey Week

    I had a sneaking feeling when they cancelled EMH that they'd add EMM. We booked for it, since we didn't get FP for SDD.

    DHS/Toy Story Land "Early Morning Magic" (EMM) FAQ & Discussion

    I had a feeling that when they cancelled EMH on November 5th that they would add EMM. I can't help but feeling that it is a bit of a cash grab there, but that doesn't stop us from considering doing it. We already were going to HS on the 5th. We weren't able to get SDD fastpasses and due to the...

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    Managed to get through to the Disney Reservation line and put in my room requests. Apparently my reservation is old enough that the CM had to go through extra steps to see some of the details. (We booked a year ago.) I know they can't guarantee anything, but I hope being away from Smoking Areas...

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    I tried to put in a room request today, but apparently their package system is down for 'magical enhancements'. The CM suggested I try back tomorrow. My main concern with having airway surgery recently is to be placed away from smoking areas. I've got a fax configured to send through TP, but I...

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    It's 24 days out for us. I'm back to work this week after recovering from surgery, but I'm still not 100%. I'm hoping to be relatively healed by the time we get to Disney. My doctor has told me that I should avoid swimming, though, which is a bit of a disappointment. I guess they don't want to...

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    We passed our 60-days out as of yesterday. Got up early and arranged our fastpasses. The only thing we weren't able to get was Slinky Dog Dash. I'm excited for the trip, but I have medical issues that I'm afraid might cause us to have to cancel. I'll know more on Friday. It's hard because I've...

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    Doing a quick peek, it looks like most of the King bed 'Standard/Garden' view rooms are in Fiji or Rarotonga. Both are 3-story longhouses, so they'll have both patios and balconies. If you google: 'tp polynesian room finder', you'll find a site with views and searchable room types which might...

    EMH at Hollywood Studios & Dining Options

    Thanks for the advice. I'm not super concerned about being there for 'rope drop' since we're newbies to the parks anyways and probably would just get trampled by the more experienced folks who actually know where they are going. As long as we don't miss out on an hour of park time or something...

    EMH at Hollywood Studios & Dining Options

    We are staying at the Polynesian in early November. We only have one day planned for going to Hollywood Studios, as it doesn't appeal to us as much as some of the other parks. Initially, I booked at 7:30am reservation at Kona Cafe with the idea that the park would open at 9am. However, after...

    DHS/Toy Story Land "Early Morning Magic" (EMM) FAQ & Discussion

    They don't have it on the day we were planning on going due to that day being EMH at Hollywood Studios. Which is a shame, as it would have been a good option. We're too far down the line to swap park days so we'll just have to deal with it as-is.

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    We're at exactly 80 days. I've been going through a month of pretty daunting health problems so I'm really looking forward to the chance to get away. I'm so excited for my first Disney visit, and to see the Polynesian.

    Fantasmic Dining package in November

    I have a Fantasmic! Dining package booked for November 5th. The calendar is already up and open and has been for a while, so it's likely the reason you can't find any openings is that they are sold out. Sometimes they do open up as people cancel closer to the dates. The current calendar shows...

    Disney Gift Card Deals

    In general, I'd try to avoid buying Disney Gift Cards through BestBuy online. I've twice had them not activate the card. They were then unable to activate it either online or in store, and both orders had to be refunded and I had to re-purchase the cards in-store instead. It is a pain in the...

    DDP vs Gift Card

    As many others have mentioned already, the first thing seems to be to figure out if the DDP even works for you/your family. If you calculate it out, and it saves you money, then it's probably the better option because it's less stress and less fiddly than playing the gift card game. That...

    “Frozen Ever After Dessert Party” with Fireworks Viewing and After-Close Attraction Ride

    For me, since I'm a first timer at Disney, it doesn't matter to me as much which show I see. if it's still Illuminations, great. If it's something new, great! The appeal of the party, either way, is to get some nice desserts and save a FP+ on FEA and (insert evening show here).
