    Annual Pass Question

    I may just be overlooking it but I never see rates for Annual Pass Holders. Is it on the same place you would book a universal hotel normally? We haven't stayed on site yet, but plan to our next visit and we are Annual Pass Holders.

    Yet another upgrade question

    Thanks for the replies. I believe we are just going to purchase the Annual Passes outright, I don't see any reason to buy the other ones and upgrade.

    Yet another upgrade question

    I've been reading up as much as I can but don't seem to have a firm grasp on this and didn't want to latch on to someone else's thread. Currently can purchase a Universal 5-day base ticekt +3rd park Free (PROMO) from UT for $263 including tax. I guess my main question is, if we get there and...

    Use single rider AND rider swap?

    I could be misunderstanding the original question but my thought is that she is asking if they all down the single rider line, one parent rides, while the other watches the kids, then they swap (so single rider and rider swap) and the second parent rides the ride while the other one watches the...

    Everything PhotoPass & Memory Maker

    I tried Chrome Icognito, keep forgetting to try on my Mac at home, hopefully it works there. As far as a firewall I'm not sure. I get photos on a lot of other sites including similar photo sites like CVS, snapfish or shutterfly, but it could be something about the way the disney site is set...

    Everything PhotoPass & Memory Maker

    I'm sorry if this has been asked and answered, I did try searching for forum but when I searched I found multiple occurrences but not the answer I was looking for. We purchased memory maker before we left, took lots of photos and are now back. I can see these photos fine on my phone but for...

    As NYers next week sure looks like swimming weather to us.

    What I Thought They'd Hate They Loved!

    Bringing my 5yo DD in 2 days for a week and can't wait to find out what she's loves that surprises me and vice versa. It's funny, I haven't been in 15 years myself after going many times in the 70's and 80's but I wonder if I surprised my parents because I ALWAYS loved Carousel of Progress...

    Looking to shake things up a bit!

    I'm loving some of the ideas on this thread. Thanks for contributing them. Never heard of the pirates adventure, wilderness explorers or sorcerers of the magic kingdom before and thinking my little girl will love them all. I thought I had read somewhere that the chip and dale camp fire...

    How long should we plan our days?

    thank you for the thoughtful replies, I do appreciate them and will probably take a little bit from each. we do plan on eating most meals off site, or having lunch and snacks with us (we will have a stroller to carry an insulated bag with us). I do like the suggestions of a nice 45 min boat...

    How long should we plan our days?

    I know nobody can accurately predict this but I'm just looking for recommendations from experience. We fly in on 2/1/19, fly out on 2/9/19 so we have 7 full days in between with a 7 day park hopper. We are staying offsite, about 20 - 30 min away (near champions gate) depending on traffic and...

    1st Timers - November 2019. What NOT to miss?

    I'm just guessing, but I think the OP might mean "free dining" as in they aren't paying cash for each meal, or just a dining plan. I could be very wrong on that though.

    Anyone stayed or seen Festival Resort?

    THank you both for the info. 30 minutes or less doesn't seem like too bad. Good idea to keep an eye on google traffic, I can get an idea of what's going on. We use the WAZE app up here in NY for traffic and it also does a really good job of avoiding it, hoping it works down there as well.

    Disney Dream, Money is no object

    I'm sure similar threads have been posted but I haven't seen them. I'd love to know what some of your Disney Dream Vacations would be. If you were uber wealthy and money was no object. Let's throw a few parameters in just to keep it somewhat realistic. Anything you want SHOULD be something...

    Anyone stayed or seen Festival Resort?

    Anyone familiar with this place? Booked a place in Feb but it looks brand new (which could be nice) but also means no meaningful reviews online. Would love any information. Also, anybody familiar what the drive from there to the parks might take us time wise? It's at 173 Captiva Drive...

    Old time disney guy, first time visit with family to the "new disney"

    Brett, Really appreciate the input. The hard part of choosing fast passes is I have no idea, except what I've read, has long lines and what doesn't. So you insight is particularly helpful. I'll look into making the changes you made in your suggestions. thanks a bunch.

    Old time disney guy, first time visit with family to the "new disney"

    I was lucky growing up to visit MK multiple times in the 70s and 80s. I still remember having tickets in the park. Now I'm all grown up and bringing my family to the "new disney" of fast passes and ADRs. I am really looking forward to it, but also somewhat intimidated. I've been reading and...
