    Everything Genie, Genie+ and Individual Lightning Lane - Please Read Posts 1-7

    How in the world does this happen? A multi-billion company who FORCES its guests to enter things like virtual queues or reserve a theme park to even permit entry can’t get their act together to actually allow guests to do what they’re forcing you to do to even “play the game”. We’ll take your...

    Studios Disney Visa Meet and Greet?

    Had fantastic interactions at Epcot as well — not rushed at all and getting Mickey AND Goofy was a great treat. Was hopeful for something similar at the Studios, but seems not to be the case still. Thanks!

    Studios Disney Visa Meet and Greet?

    That was all I could see as well. Didn’t know if things had changed and not been updated, but it does seem like it hasn’t yet. Thanks!

    Studios Disney Visa Meet and Greet?

    I’ve seen some things that this is just a special photo pass lens now as opposed to a meet and greet…has this returned to a character meet and greet over the last few months yet? (If so, what character(s) did you happen to get?)

    Any news when DVC members can get an annual pass???

    This may not be the thread to ask this question, but we renewed our DVC Sorcerer passes. In the past, you’ve had to stop at Guest Relations to verify the pass (essentially confirming you were a DVC member). Is that still the case now that everything is linked in My Disney Experience? I thought...

    Tron previews for DVC?

    How does it work if you don't have a park reservation? We got the email today for our early March stay and while I have two MK days during our stay, I'd be open to just switching all six days to MK for the time being if that helps the process. Above, it was mentioned that you didn't need one...

    Walt Disney World Date Based Ticket System FAQ • Read First Page

    I looked on the first page, but admittedly did not read through this whole thread so I’m sure this has been answered before, but what happens if you purchase tickets for a specific series of dates and then need to cancel your trip? Can you utilize those tickets for another set of dates...

    Bar or lounge for solo diner

    Geyser Point had some of the best food of our trip this past vacation — their bison burger was fantastic. We also really liked Jock Lindsay’s, but be aware that the inside is quite small so if you want a “pull up a stool at the bar” kind of atmosphere, it may be tough to snag a spot inside...

    Quiet spot for a solo traveler to relax?

    Assuming the weather is nice, you could totally eat at the Brown Derby outside seating. It’s the full menu of the inside restaurant plus maybe one or two other items. They don’t take reservations. Last time we were there, there were actually several solo travelers there and there are rarely...

    How Many Drops in Guardians of the Galaxy?

    I will only add that I rode this twice on my last trip. After ride one (which was in the third row from the back), I told myself I wouldn’t ride again. To me, it certainly wasn’t the speed or the spinning per se. It was simply disorientating to a point of uncomfortableness and while i didn’t...

    Everything Virtual Queue - Please Read Posts 1 and 2

    What's been the typical wait time when you're in the physical queue? I was looking at Thrill Data and they've got wait times at 140+ minutes today, but I'm not sure if that's accurate or if it's some data for the virtual queue wait times. I don't mind walking around EPCOT for hours waiting for...

    Policies as of 5/10/22

    I would also just add that in addition to masks another option to help mitigate your exposure beyond the obvious of not eating indoors, etc, is to buy Genie+ and the Individual Lightning Lanes. I'm very against this whole new system (although I'm even more against the park reservation/lack of...

    Double recommendation on the mask lanyards! Wore them the whole time and made things much easier.

    Policies as of 5/10/22

    Just wanted to add that we just returned. Wore KN95 masks in all stores and in essentially all ride queues and rides. Used Genie+ three days and ILL for Rise and Ratatouille. With the rising cases across the country, I'll be honest -- I did expect a bit more mask-wearing from others, but I...

    Cronut During Flower and Garden?

    Any place to get the cronut during this year’s Flower and Garden? We’ve walked Epcot twice already and in our cursory looking, we haven’t found it. Not a big deal, but may look for it as a treat over our next two days there.

    I tried to like Harmonius, I really did

    LOVED Illuminations since its inception, but I admit that I was growing maybe a little wary of it the past few years. The music inspired, but the globe needed to be updated with better technology. That said, it was usually a "watch twice a trip" kind of show. Saw Harmonious for the first time...

    Everything Park Reservations - Please Read Post 1

    We’re traveling with three 1-4 year olds this trip and some days you just don’t get moving as early as others. To be stuck with a particular park and not be able to change plans is horrible. It’s NOT as simple as “tapping in” and then leaving. I have 40 years of Disney trips under my belt...

    Everything Park Reservations - Please Read Post 1

    It shouldn’t be this difficult to go to a park at Disney. I’m not sure this is the thread to air grievances, but the fact that you had to do this to go to a park is ludicrous. I’m no fan of genie+ and lightning lanes either, but honestly the park reservation system is THE WORST. (I’m here now...

    Art of Animation Gated?

    Down here at Disney now and probably not going to do a park tomorrow (despite the park reservation system which the less said about the better). Wondering if there is a gate at the Art of Animation resort to enter. My assumption is that now that the Skyliner lands there, there is, but we were...
