    Updated Disney Gift Card Deals and More

    Costco update: I got two on my account. Two on BILs account. Then two on Mom’s (executive) account and two on daughters account were canceled. We even tried buying with different credit cards and sending to different email addresses. No luck.

    Parking

    We are planning to stay off-site for the first time. On past visits when we've rented a car and stayed onsite we've gotten the parking pass from our resort. The pass lasted all week and we could drive through the gates with ease. I'm wondering, since we'll be offsite this time, will we be able...

    Everything Park Hopping - Please Read Post 1

    Advice please! Our last trip was right before Covid. We are big hoppers. Rope drop, do a couple rides, then hop - going from park to park to park each day. We really want to go back for Christmas this year. But, are considering waiting until next Christmas just so we can hop like we are used to...

    Convention Tickets

    I’m hoping someone has actually used convention tickets recently and can help answer my questions. I’m interested to know how these work in regard to adding to My Disney Experience. Do I add the ticket code number the same way? I’m on the fence about the hopper and I plan to only use Genie+ on...

    Exactly my situation. Will you be traveling before March? If so, would you be willing to come back and tell me how it went?

    Alamo v Avis

    I always rent Alamo when I go to Orlando. I appreciate being able to walk straight to the row, choose a car and drive away with only a quick stop at the gate. I’m finding Avis is far less expensive. Will I find it to be a completely different experience, as well? Negative or positive?

    Please recommend a cheap hotel for one night

    Booking for our Christmas trip. I'm looking for a cheap ($100??) room with two beds for one short night. We'll leave the parks about midnight, arrive at the room about 1AM, get up at 4AM to arrive at the airport by 5AM for our 7AM flight. I hate to pay the Disney holiday rates for 3 hours of...

    RotR Planning & Daily Boarding Group Discussion - *CLOSED*

    We have now experienced two line options for RoTR as we arrived early (about 5:30-5:45 am) yesterday and today. Both times we went expecting to get a boarding group and then leave the park until we received our call to come back. Yesterday we were boarding group 25 which gave us just barely...

    Resort Airline Check-in

    We will check-in for our flights and check our bags using Resort Airline Check-in on Saturday. We will fly out early Sunday morning. We won't use Magical Express to go to the airport. Is this an acceptable scenario?

    Why I Gave Up on Walt Disney World

    I read the article and felt like I could have written it myself. We did take a break - five years. We vacationed all over the world including a trip to Disneyland Paris. I feel like it's finally time to come back. I've booked the trip, but I admit I'm still reluctant. That's why I haven't told...

    Holy smokes thanks for all of this wonderful feedback! Sometimes we just need other people to give us input to really help calm the nerves. You are making me really excited about visiting during the holiday season. We've been there enough times to know the lay of the land and know what are our...

    New again...

    We have booked a holiday trip and are still deciding whether to actually go. Please help me decide. We used to take our children every winter to Disney. We'd go in January during the low season. The last time we visited was 5 years ago when our children were still tweens. Our oldest is now in...

    Eat at Home 3!

    It's been a long time since I've posted here, but I'm back now as I always get such good ideas. Things around my house have drastically changed because DS headed off to college this week. He's 6'4" 285 lbs, so learning how to cook without him in the mix will be interesting. As school starts for...
